I Saved A Mystery Billionaireac (Eudora) novel Chapter 967

Jervis stood aside, smoking. He didn't speak but just listened to the sound of water.

After a while, Mia put the clothes in the big basin and began to wash the blankets.

However, the blankets were too thick and heavy, and she couldn't lift them after they got wet. Her feet slipped, and she almost fell into the water.

"Be careful," Jervis said.

He stepped forward and grabbed Mia's arm. "Are you all right?"

Mia almost fell into the water, and her face turned pale with fright. She turned her head and smiled at Jervis.

She put down the blankets and gestured to Jervis. "Jervis, thank you."

Her smile made Jervis' heart skip a beat.

He threw the cigarette butt aside and said to Mia, "I'll help you."

"No need. The water is too cold."

Mia was gesturing, but Jervis rolled up his sleeves and took the wet blankets from her hand.

He knew that the water was cold, but when he touched the water, he realized that it was icy cold.

When he got closer to Mia, he clearly found that her hands were full of chilblains and cracks, which was very pitiful.

Jervis didn't understand. How could there be such a poor girl?

Jervis twisted the blankets and put them on the stone. Mia smiled at him and started to wash them, but because Jervis stood too close, the foam splashed all over his body.

Mia was taken aback. "Sorry, I didn't mean it. You should stand far away."

She pointed to where Jervis was standing just now and gestured.

Jervis looked at the foam splashing on his trouser legs and laughed. "It's okay."

He stepped aside so as not to disturb her.

Out of his sense of responsibility as a police officer, he was worried that Mia would accidentally fall into the river if she washed heavy clothes, so he waited until she finished washing. Just as he was about to leave, he found Mia's basin piled up with clothes, which were difficult for her to carry.

"I'll help you," Jervis said.
