chapter 1471
Everyone watched as Maurice jumped straight into the lake.
"What’s going on?" questioned the director.
Everyone shook their heads. They had no idea.
Sabrina, on the other hand, stared at the lake with a look of disbelief.
How did Maurice find out? Why would this man, he who was afraid of water, would fearlessly jump into the lake for Charmine? 1
The director looked at the screen in confusion.
It was only when he noticed Charmine already unconscious and had sunk to the bottom of the lake did he realize it was not in the script. Something was wrong.
His face jolted.
"Hurry!" the director's hand shook as he said to the crowd, "Hurry and save her! We have a situation here!"
After a few seconds of silence, everyone panicked and rushed toward the lake urgently.
Charmine, unable to untangle herself from the waterweeds, grew listless, her head getting heavier and her vision blurrier.
Right before she lost consciousness, she could hear someone anxiously calling out her character's name, "Gem! Gem...!"
She wanted to respond, but her eyelids grew heavier like mountains, unable to keep her eyes open.
Maurice dove right to the bottom, and though overwhelmed by his claustrophobia, shrugged it off as his gentle eyes fixed on the red figure not far away from him.
He swam over quickly and spotted the already unconscious Charmine.
Maurice gazed at her, pained. He took out his pocket knife and slashed the waterweeds wrapped around her ankle.
He bent down to grab her waist and then swim back upward.
When they got out of the lake, the crew was already waiting for them anxiously by the edge. i
Maurice's face was pale, terrified by the water, but used every bit of his strength to bring Charmine to the shore. Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
When he saw William taking Charmine into his arms, the built-up tension within him instantly released, and he fell listlessly beside Charmine...
The crew initially wanted to help Charmine, but they saw a man who passed them to help Charmine. Thus, they instantly attended to Maurice.
William knelt beside Charmine to give her a cardiopulmonary resuscitation, but even after doing that for a while, there was still no improvement.
He frowned anxiously. Seeing that she was not even breathing, William felt as if his world was collapsing...
He only had one thought in mind. 'Ms. Jordan, please be okay. Please be okay...'
Noticing that the cardiopulmonary resuscitation was not working, William did not hesitate to part her lips with his hands to give her mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
His heart sank the moment he found out Charmine was caught in an accident. He was so worried that he wanted to jump into the lake right away, but Maurice beat him to it. Even though he was very worried, he knew he did not have to jump into the lake. William blamed himself. He watched Charmine closely all along, but how did he not notice when she was struggling underwater for so long?
He was breathing her air through his mouth and performed the resuscitation repetitively.
A few minutes later, Charmine made a sound...
She spat out water.
Everyone around them sighed in relief, thinking they were in the clear.
However, even after she spat out water and she could breathe weakly, she was still unconscious...
The ambulance happened to have rushed over at this time, quickly wheeling both Maurice and Charmine into the ambulance.
At the hospital...
Thankfully, Maurice merely passed out from overworking, waking up half an hour later after having intravenous therapy.
He was worried about Charmine, so he walked toward where she was to check on her, all while dragging along his pump.
Charmine was still lying unconsciously inside the ICU...
