Chapter 248 Thrilling! Jessica Fell into the Water 2
On the shore, all the rescue equipment was ready.
Gabriel immediately laid Jessica flat on the ground and began forcefully pressing on her chest to expel the water she had inhaled.
Once, twice, three times...
But no matter how hard he pressed, Jessica lay there unresponsive.
She lay there quietly, as if she were asleep.
Gabriel shouted frantically, pressing as he yelled, "Jessica.
"Jessica, I said you can't sleep! Wake up, wake up now!
"Jessica, don't sleep."
But Jessica remained unresponsive.
Gabriel's eyes were bloodshot; he looked like a madman, pressing frantically on Jessica's chest.
"Where's the doctor? Where's the doctor? Why isn't he here yet?" he shouted at Oscar.
Oscar shivered in fear. There had been a doctor on standby, but after Mr. Walton got sick and threw a fit, he had driven the doctor away. So, Oscar had just sent someone to fetch the doctor.
It would take time for the doctor to arrive; he couldn't just appear instantly.
But Mr. Walton was already in a crazed state; he couldn't go on like this.
Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Oscar said cautiously, "The doctor is on his way."
Gabriel glanced at him coldly, his eyes like daggers.
Clenching his fists, he forced himself to calm down.
'Right, CPR.'
Thinking of this, he immediately bent down and began giving Jessica CPR.
But it still didn't work.
She still lay there, her face pale, and her condition seemed to be worsening.
He yelled, "Jessica, don't sleep. I'm begging you; don't sleep.
"Wake up. As long as you wake up, you can punish me however you want."
Usually strong and proud, Jessica suddenly shed all her pride and strength, leaving only softness and endless fear.At that moment, a deep voice came through. "What's going on?"
Oscar looked up and, seeing Loren, like he had seen a savior. With his eyes shining, he ran over and pulled him over.
Loren?
Why was he here?
Diana clenched her fists, a trace of coldness flashing in her heart.
Jessica was really lucky. At such a critical moment, she encountered Loren. Everyone knew that in all his years of practice, Loren had never lost a patient.
Diana hated Loren.
Years ago, he had had the chance to heal her legs, but to maintain his perfect record and those meaningless titles, he had refused her.
And now.
Jessica had been out of the water for a while, and Gabriel hadn't been able to wake her up.
She must be close to death. Diana was eager to see if the famous, reputation-obsessed Loren would help.
Years ago, she had begged him, cried her heart out, and almost knelt before him.
But he had remained unmoved.
Even Gabriel, who had gone to see him personally, had been turned away.
Out of brotherly respect, Gabriel had said nothing, and they remained good friends.
But this time, Diana smirked, her lips curling into a cold, sinister smile.
The show was about to begin.
Didn't Gabriel love Jessica madly?
Wasn't he crazy about her?
She wanted to see if Loren refused to save Jessica, how Gabriel would react, and how their brotherly bond would shatter.
And if Jessica died, it would avenge her untreated injury.
It was a win-win situation, so she waited eagerly.
She wasn't in a hurry; she would wait patiently.
However, Diana never expected the scene she saw next.
Seeing Loren, Gabriel stood up. Due to prolonged physical exertion and extreme stress, he staggered and almost fell.
He yelled at Loren, "Loren, save her.
"Save her now. I want her alive. She must live."
Gabriel's brows furrowed deeply.is eyes were bloodshot, and his handsome face now was a picture of desperation.
As he spoke, his hands never stopped pressing.
Loren glanced at Jessica and immediately pulled Gabriel aside. "Step back; let me do it."
"Okay." Gabriel quickly made way.
Loren took a close look, then knelt down and began pressing on Jessica's chest, just like Gabriel, but with a different, more practiced technique.
Watching this scene, Diana bit her lip hard, almost in disbelief.
'Loren was actually is Jessica? Loren is saving her without hesitation? Isn't he afraid of failing and ruining his reputation?'
Hatred surged within her.
At that moment, a tall figure rushed in front of her, and the next moment, her neck was gripped tightly.
The force was so strong that she couldn't breathe.
Seeing who it was, Diana's eyes widened in disbelief. "Gabriel, you...?"
She struggled and cried out in pain, "Are you really going to strangle me? I can barely breathe."
"Diana." Gabriel looked at her coldly, sending chills down her spine.
His voice was like a roar from hell. "If anything happens to Jessica, I'll make you pay with your life.
"You better pray she wakes up, or I can't guarantee what I'll do to you."
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Diana would never have believed that the gentle, elegant Gabriel could turn into this fierce, bloodthirsty man.
And it was all because of Jessica.
Hatred surged like a tidal wave in her heart.
She sneered, "Pray? I won't pray. She took the person I loved most. I hate her. I wish she would go to hell right now.
"It's been too long. She's beyond saving. Even if you strangle me, she won't come back. She's dead, already dead. Ha ha!"
"Diana!" Gabriel roared, his hoarse voice filled with rage, "You wretch. You're not worth a shred of my guilt or affection."
With that, Gabriel tightened his grip.
At that moment, he wanted to snap her neck.
How could she say such venomous things?
Diana felt the air thinning, and her breathing became more difficult. "Gabriel, let me go."
She felt she was about to die.
She regretted provoking him.
She hadn't expected he truly meant it.
Her face turned pale, eyes lifeless. Just as she thought she was about to die.
Suddenly, a cough came through, and Jessica expelled a large amount of water from her chest.
With Loren's pressing, another mouthful of water came out.
"Jessica." Gabriel immediately let go of Diana and ran over to hold Jessica.
Jessica slowly regained consciousness and gently opened her eyes.
