Chapter 519 Like Inseparable Vines
Sure enough, she saw Braden lying flat on a piece of rock beside the river.
"Braden!"
She was ecstatic and rushed towards the man regardless of the scratches on her feet.
At that moment, Braden was in a coma because he choked on water. Like Shirley, he had many scratches on his body, and his old disease relapsed in his left leg. He couldn't move at all.
"You must hold on, you must hold on!"
Shirley felt as if her heart had been cut by millions of knives, and it was so painful that it hurt her to the bone.
While crying, she endured the pain and brought the man to the shore. Then, she bent down to give him mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
His lips were as cold as his body, and his handsome face turned as pale as a corpse's because he had been soaked in water for too long!
"Wake up, Braden Stewart! Wake up!"
Shirley quickly pressed the man's chest and gave him mouth-to-mouth. Tears rolled uncontrollably down her eyes like beads.
She had lived for so many years and had encountered countless accidents of all kinds. Never had she ever been so panicked and scared like this.
Even though she had made up her mind not to have any future with the man, she still hoped that he could be safe and happy.
"Khak, khak, khak!"
Braden finally regained some consciousness after Shirley tried her best to save him. His large palm held Shirley's hand tightly, just like a person in hell who pulled the only connection to the world.
"That's great! Braden, hang in there! Help is coming!"
Shirley continued prone and performed CPR on Braden.
She had been so familiar with his lips, so enamoured. In the course of time she at last felt a little warmth from those cold lips.
Braden's consciousness had not returned. He was in a half-conscious state, as if he was stepping on a cloud. He was so light-headed that he could not tell if he was in reality or not.
The only thought was to save Shirley and ensure that she was safe, even if he was blind and couldn't see anything.
"Shirley... Shirley, don't be afraid. I'm here to save you. I will definitely save you!"
He closed his eyes, frowned in pain, and kept murmuring like this.
"What? How do you feel now?"
Shirley couldn't tell if the man was awake or unconscious. She pressed her ear against his lips, trying to hear what he was murmuring.
"Shirley, I will protect you. No matter where you are, I will protect you..."
Braden felt Shirley’s presence as well. He tightened his grip on her fingers with all his might.
"Silly, why are you so stupid? You've risked your life over and over again for me. You're so stupid..."
Shirley threw her arms around the man, and almost wept herself unconscious.
No matter how hard-hearted and rational a person was, it was hard not to be moved when she learned that the man loved her so deeply, right?
"I'm not afraid. With you by my side, I fear nothing. We have to hold on. We'll definitely survive..."
Her breathing became weaker and weaker. Coupled with the low temperature and exhausted physical strength, she only felt so sleepy.
After a while, Antwan and Alina followed the rescue team and found them almost lifeless downstream.
The two of them snuggled up to each other like two entangled vines, and they had merged into each other, but both of them were unconscious.
"They’re alive! They're alive!"
"Woo..."
This trick was really useful.
Shirley, who was in a coma, showed a painful look because of being plundered from breathing. She moved her body uncomfortably and tried to push away what was on her lips.
"Come on, she’s letting go of him. Hurry up and separate them!"
Fortunately, the rescue team had found the right time to separate Braden and Shirley.
Braden was quickly carried into the ambulance, while Shirley was picked up by Antwan and taken to another ambulance.
The two ambulances arrived at the nearest hospital one after another, and Braden and Shirley were also sent to different emergency rooms.
Antwan's elongated body leaned against the corridor as he waited.
Annoyed, he lit a cigarette despite the warning signs and looked at the emergency room from time to time. As he puffed out smoke, his handsome face became even more mysterious.
"You are so rude. How dare you smoke in the hospital!"
Alina rolled her eyes at the man and raised her eyebrows. "Any more? Give me one too. I'm so worried about it."
With a cigarette in his mouth, Antwan took out the cigarette case and gave Alina one as well.
The two of them puffed out smoke together.
"Ah, you're really abnormal. What's the difference between kissing a unconscious person and kissing a corpse?"
Alina curled her lips and mocked.
"I'm perverted, but I'm much more efficient than you. At least I got what I wanted. And look at you... I sent him to your side, but you haven't taken him down yet. It's really disappointing."
He then lifted Alina's chin and sneered, "You're so open and aboveboard. Have you not even held his hand yet?"
