Filed To Story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love
With his eyes closed, he furrowed his brows in pain and muttered endlessly.
“What did you say? How do you feel now?”
Flossie could not tell if he was awake or in a coma, so she leaned her ear close to his lips to listen to his murmur.
“Flossie, I’ll protect you. I’ll protect you no matter where you are…”
Halston could feel Flossie, so he tried his best to hold her hand tightly.
“Silly man. Why were you so silly? You risked your life for me so many times. You’re so silly…”
Hugging him, Flossie cried desperately.
Of course, she would be moved no matter how unfeeling and rational she was after she learned that he loved her so deeply.
“I’m not afraid. With you by my side, I’m fearless. We must hang tough and stay alive…”
While she spoke, her breathing became weaker. Suddenly, she felt extremely sleepy as her body caved to the effects of exhaustion and hypothermia.
After a while, both Jovan and Seraphina reached the downstream location with the rescue team and found the two on the verge of death.
They huddled together like two vines that were entangled with each other. Though they had fainted, they had become a part of each other.
“They’re breathing! They’re alive!”
The people of the rescue team screamed in joy. “How unbelievable! They survived such rapid waters. It’s a miracle!”
“Cut the crap! Let’s get them to the hospital.”
Seraphina looked at Halston, and when she saw him breathing on the ground, she heaved a sigh of relief. However, she became very gloomy.
She regretted being so weak and timid and not diving into the river to save him immediately. If not, she would be snuggling with Halston now.
“We want to get them to the hospital too, but… but they’re hugging each other too tightly. We can’t separate them at all. Don’t just stand there and do nothing. Come and give a hand.”
The captain of the rescue team wiped away the sweat on his forehead and tried his best to separate Halston and Flossie, but it was to no avail.
After that, several other men rushed forward to help, but it was still useless. Hence, the rescue was delayed.
“Let me!” Jovan, who was standing beside and looking on coldly, volunteered proudly.
At that moment, he shared the same feeling as Seraphina. He was extremely envious.
However, there was a difference. He did not regret not pursuing Flossie and jumping into the river.
After all, he had countless ways to get her. Killing oneself for love was the dumbest one!
When Jovan spoke up, the members of the rescue team automatically retreated.
He bent down and held Flossie’s face. After that, he put his lips against hers and started kissing her…
“Jovan, stop that! You’re a crazy pervert! She’s fainted, but you… you’re a pervert!”
Seraphina found his crazy moves unbearable.
However, Jovan seemed to have been separated from the world. He cared not what others said or thought of him. He continued kissing her violently until she could not breathe.
“Hmm…”
That tactic was indeed slightly useful.
Flossie, who was in a coma, appeared to be suffering because someone snatched her breath. She struggled in discomfort because she wanted to push away the person snatching her breath.
“Hurry up! She let go. Break them apart now.”
The rescue team acted fast and found the right timing before they quickly separated Halston and Flossie.
Halston was carried into an ambulance quickly. On the other hand, Jovan carried Flossie and got into another ambulance.
Both ambulances arrived at the nearest hospital one after another. At the same time, both Halston and Flossie were rushed to different emergency rooms.
Jovan leaned his tall body against the wall in the corridor and waited. He was frustrated, so he ignored the warning sign and lit a cigarette. He glanced at the emergency room from time to time. While smoking, his handsome face became gloomier and more reticent.
“You’re such a rude vagrant. Why smoke in the hospital?”
Seraphina rolled her eyes at him before she raised her brows and said, “Do you have an extra? Give me one. I’m worried sick.”
While holding the cigarette with his thin lips, Jovan took out a box of cigarettes and handed one to Seraphina.
They then smoked together.
“Well, you’re a pervert. You kissed a fainted person. It’s no different than kissing a corpse,” Seraphina smirked and mocked meanly.
“Am I a pervert? But I’m more efficient than you. At least I got what I wanted. How about you? I served him to you, but you didn’t gain his heart. You’re too disappointing.”
While talking, Jovan lifted her chin and sneered. “And you’re so honest and upright. Don’t tell me you didn’t even hold his hand?”
“You’re so vulgar!”
Seraphina clenched her fists tightly. After she put away her fierceness, she suffered a great sense of defeat.
He brought up her most painful rancor.
During these years, she had been Halston’s buddy. They seemed to be close, so it was not strange that they ate and slept together, let alone held hands.
However, their hand-holding was unlike that of lovers.
She dreamed to become his true girlfriend, so she could hold his hand, kiss him, and even do something more intimate with him.
“You got angry, so it looks like I made the right guess. You’re indeed noble, but you can’t be reconciled with it. This kind of reluctance will distort your mind. In the end, you’ll become more vulgar, worse than me.”
Jovan got closer to her and revealed a smile with profound meaning.
“Nonsense! I’m different. I love Halston, so I won’t hurt him. You said you love Flossie, but all you did was hurt her. Flossie was right. Your love is vulgar and extremely destructive!”
Seraphina found him very disdainful.
Although she technically grew up with Jovan, she stood against him because she was on Halston’s side.
If Jovan did not promise that she could be with Halston after she did what he said obediently, she might not even be bothered to speak to him for the rest of her life.
Although he kept his promise and she successfully got together with Halston, she… felt that there was something amiss, as if something was lacking.
“Ha! Ha! Ha! So, you’re troubled by your conscience? Are you backtracking? Don’t tell me that you’re so generous that you’re allowing them to be together?”
