You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 278

James thought Emma was going to jump into the lake to commit suicide. He was so scared that he quickly held her waist and carried her down from the fence.

"Emma, are you crazy? You are going to jump into the lake because of a man!" James said loudly.

Emma was stunned for a while. She didn't realize what had happened until she stood on the ground. With red eyes, she said, "My ring has fallen into the lake. It's very important to me. I have to pick it up."

"Your ring?" However, James didn't let go of her arm, fearing that she would jump into the lake again.

"Aren't you going to jump into the lake because of Harrison?" James asked.

Emma took a deep breath. Her eyes became redder. "I'm going to pick up my ring. It's very important to me. Let go of me. I'll look for it."

She shook off his hand.

When she was about to turn around, he grabbed her arm again. "Wait here. I'll pick it up for you."

He bypassed her and stood by the lake to have a look. "With little light, I can't see the lake clearly. I don't know how deep the lake is. I have never come to such a place."

She calmed down and refused him, "I'll pick it up myself. I don't need your help. The lake is only two meters deep and I won't drown."

Then she climbed over the fence again.

"Do you really understand me?" Then he reached out and pulled her down. "I've told you that I'll pick it up for you. Wait here for me."

She had always been afraid of him, because he was always domineering and unreasonable, and loved shouting at others.

She had no choice but to sob in a low voice. She didn't want him to see her embarrassed look. She turned around, wept bitterly and raised her hand to wipe the tears.

However, he didn't notice that Emma was sobbing. While observing the lake, he asked, "Is it right here?"

"Yes." She said in a nasal voice.

Hearing this, James felt sorry for her and slowed down his voice, "Don't cry. I've told you that I'll pick it up for you. Tell me what it looks like so that I can get it for you."

He began to take off his coat.

The rustling sound made her trust him more inexplicably. She said, "It's a silver necklace with a ring on it, with the letters H and E engraved on it, the first letter of my and… his name."

"What is it?" He stopped taking off his clothes, shook his shoulder, put on his coat and reached out to pull her towards him.

He made her face him.

"So this is the token of love between you and Harrison, right?" James stared at Emma as if he was questioning her.

She looked down and didn't answer.

She meant that what he said was right.

With his hands on his waist, he nodded with a mocking smile.

He pointed at a direction and shouted angrily, "Emma, are you insane? He has left you. Why do you still keep his stuff?"

Tears streamed down her face.

She raised her head regardless of embarrassment and stared at him firmly. "Yes, I'm insane. I just want to get the ring back. I didn't ask you to help me. I'll do it by myself."

She pushed him away with all her strength.

She felt aggrieved.

With anger rising in his heart, he grabbed her arm and made her unable to move.

"Emma, listen to me. Don't do such a thankless thing." Then he was about to leave with her. "Don't look for it. I'll buy you another one. It's much better than the one he gave you."

"Let me go. Let me go." Emma struggled so hard that her wrist was red, but was still grabbed by James.

She didn't want to lose the ring.

Harrison abandoned her, but the love between them had really existed. The ring carried her love and memory.
