Chapter 290 In the next moment, Angela lost consciousness.

When Dexter arrived, the firefighters were already assembling their equipment, preparing to lift the car out of the water.

"Where is she? Where's Angela?" Dexter yelled anxiously, grabbing a firefighter.

"We haven't found her yet. We've already sent people..." Before he could finish his sentence, Dexter had already thrown off his coat jacket and dived headfirst into the water.

It was mid-autumn, and the lake water was especially cold. Holding his breath, Dexter searched around in the water, but all he saw were a few other rescuers like himself.

There was no one in the car or around it.

Dexter's heart pounded in panic. Without hesitation, he swam toward the deeper waters.

Suddenly, a glimpse of olive green caught his eye. He quickly turned his head, looking toward an area of dense aquatic vegetation at the bottom of the lake.

Without hesitation, Dexter dove down, clinging to a shred of hope.

As he got closer, long strands of aquatic plants swayed chaotically, obstructing his vision. But to his astonishment, Angela really was there.

Her ankles were entangled by the waterweeds, and she had long since lost consciousness.

Overcwith anguish, Dexter swam to her feet and frantically began to pull the waterweeds away. A cloud of silt rose, causing him to choke violently on water, the discomfort nearly unbearable.

At that moment, two other rescuers arrived to help. Working together, they finally took Angela to shore.

Bystanders pointed and whispered, speculating that she wouldn't survive.

Angela was deathly pale at the moment.

"Angela!" Dexter performed chest compressions with precise rhythm on her, his voice filled with heartbreaking urgency.

He then pinched her nose and blew air into her mouth. Yet, despite his efforts, she showed no signs of improvement.

For over ten agonizing minutes, he persisted, oblivious to everyone around him, as if the entire world had been reduced to just the two of them.

His senses seemed completely shut off from the outside world.

Fiona soon arrived at the scene. After seeing the emergency news, she had dropped everything in the PR department and hurried over.

She had thought Angela would have already been taken to the hospital, but due to heavy traffic congestion, the ambulance had only just arrived.

"Sir, we need to take the injured to the hospital for treatment." "Sir, please let go." "Let her go now!" Several paramedics loudly tried to persuade Dexter, but he seemed oblivious to them as he clung to the unconscious Angela tightly, refusing to let go.

At that moment, no one knew what was going through Dexter's mind He looked utterly devastated-his eyes vacant, and his face was ashen. Anyone who looked at him would feel heartbroken.

Seeing this, Fiona immediately struck Dexter hard across the face without warning. "You lunatic, what are you doing? Do you not want her to live?" Dexter snapped out of it. By then, Fiona had already helped take Angela from his arms and into the ambulance. "Quick, cwith us!" Fiona shouted.

Together, they got into the ambulance, where several paramedics swiftly began

administering emergency treatment. Various devices monitored Angela's vital signs, and as everyone's expressions grew increasingly grim, Fiona began to fidget with anxiety. Could it be that Angela wouldn't make it?

At the hospital, Dexter and Fiona were asked to wait outside the m emergency room. It was as if they were separated by the thin line between life and death. Dexter stood there, dazed, looking like the life had been sucked out of him.

All he could think was that he was too late, that he had wasted precious time, and that it was all his fault. The it w content is on novelenglish.net! A deep, unprecedented terror enveloped him. It felt like the entire room was filled with damp, creeping closer to him, smotret suffocating cotton that was his breath and leaving him gasping for air.

He could only imagine that before she had lost consciousness, Angela had felt the soverwhelming fear and despair.

How scared and utterly hopeless must she have been? Who, and what kind of person, could be so cruel, so full of hatred toward her, to have done this? mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
