Chapter 1561
The doctor hurriedly performed CPR on Nicole as he tried to force the water out of her lungs.
Ten, twenty, fifty!
As time slowly passed, everyone began to lose hope that she would be able to make it out alive.
Someone in the crowd then said, "It looks like she has drowned."
"Yeah, she was in the water for a good few minutes...," another stated.
Jared starred at the doctor intently, his hands were trembling.
No...' he panicked. "I cannot lose Nicole! I cannot lose her! Nicole, if you dare die on me, I'll be coming with you!"
They had made a promise, which he would never allow himself to break.
At this moment, the doctor did a few more compressions in quick succession.
Suddenly, Nicole reacted with a series of coughs, before spitting out a mouthful of water.
"She's regained consciousness!" The crowd exclaimed as the doctor finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Jared knelt down by Nicole's side at once. "Nicole!"
Hearing Jared's voice, Nicole gradually began to recover from her daze. "Why... are you here..."
She had only just called him about a few minutes ago, and he had actually rushed all the way here.
Looking at his sodden clothes, she whispered. "You saved me?"
Those bodyguards who were secretly protecting her had not dared to jump into the water to save her. And yet, Jared had risked his life the way he did, just for her...
For that she felt a surge of warmth and pain in her heart at the same time.
'This man, to put himself in harm's way for me? What a shmuck,' she thought.
