Chapter 125 Worrisome
At that moment, Anna had just placed her bowl in the dishwasher when she heard Beatrice anxiously calling for her.
"Katherine, come to the rooftop quickly."
The rooftop?
Anna had a bad feeling and hurriedly took the elevator to the top floor.
Six seconds later, the elevator doors opened, and she was utterly shocked!
Outside the elevator was a vast space of several hundred square meters, filled with an open-air swimming pool!
Under the bright sunshine, the water rippled, exuding an unmatched luxury!
And Beatrice, with her back turned towards the swimming pool, was standing dangerously close to the edge.
"Beatrice, please come a bit further inside," Anna instinctively shouted, fearing the water.
But Beatrice, still ignoring the danger, smiled brightly and said, "The pool is beautiful, and the weather is lovely today. I want to have some fun."
Lifting her tiptoes into the water, she lightly raised them, causing splashes that were full of the innocence and charm of a young girl.
Suddenly! She slipped!
"Ah!" She uncontrollably fell into the swimming pool.
With a loud splash, her entire body plunged into the pool, creating water waves half a meter high.
"Beatrice!"
Screams and exclamations echoed through the villa.
On the first floor, Giorgio's eyes narrowed slightly. What had happened?
He set aside his files and stood up to go upstairs.
The photographer in the corner also noticed the incident and quickly followed.
Top-floor swimming pool.
Anna's face turned pale and anxious due to the sudden accident.
She hurried over, searching for swimming rings and life-saving equipment around, but found nothing.
"Beatrice, don't panic, don't struggle, come here, I'll pull you."
She leaned over the edge of the pool, extending her slender arm.
However, the pool was wide and deep, a full 1.8 meters, and she couldn't reach it at all.
"Help, help!" Beatrice in the water continued to struggle.
Water flowed into her throat, ears, and eyes, causing extreme discomfort.
Her slim figure was completely submerged in the water, only occasionally showing her head, at risk of drowning at any moment!
Anna was extremely anxious.
Judging from the situation, Beatrice couldn't swim at all and was in a panic, making it easier for her to lose her life by struggling.
And she couldn't swim either! Blindly saving her might end up endangering herself.
But if she didn't save Beatrice, Beatrice definitely wouldn't be able to wait for Giorgio and the rescue personnel to arrive.
She could only gamble with reason and luck!
Drawing a deep breath, Anna summoned her courage, grabbed a nearby lounge chair, and threw it into the water. Then, with a loud splash, she jumped in.
One second later, with a splashing sound, she resurfaced.
Because the chair was 20 centimeters high, it was safe to step on.
"Beatrice, don't exert yourself, I'll hold your hand and pull you over."
As Anna spoke, she struggled to extend her body, stretching her arm with great effort to finally grasp Beatrice's hand.
Just as she was about to exert force, Beatrice suddenly pulled hard.
"Ah~" She dragged Anna into the water! Beatrice clung to her like someone seeking a lifeline, wrapping her body around her, even pushing her body down!
"Mmm... mmm..." Anna vigorously shook her head, unable to even open her eyes.
Beatrice could only breathe fresh air in this way, while still pressing Anna down so she could surface.
Ice-cold water surged in from all sides, aggressively infiltrating Anna's nose, ears, and into her internal organs.
She was extremely uncomfortable, unable to breathe, and her throat was in excruciating pain.
The dark embrace of death enveloped her, eroding all of her consciousness.
Giorgio arrived upstairs and saw Beatrice struggling in the water, but Anna was completely gone.
His face turned grave, and he quickly took off his suit jacket, jumping into the water and swimming quickly towards the center.
His speed was fast and agile.
Upon seeing this scene, the staff also put down their equipment and began diving to save them.
Only the cameraman remained.
He captured this critical scene.
In the water, Giorgio held Beatrice's body and lifted her up, passing her to the approaching staff member.
"Take her up first."
"Yes." The staff member took Beatrice.
Giorgio swiftly dove into the water again.
Underneath the crystal-clear blue water, Anna was already unconscious, floating toward the bottom of the pool.
Her pale face appeared peaceful, devoid of any signs of life. Her long hair and the flowing white dress she wore made her resemble a beautiful and suffocating fairy of death in the water.
Anna!
Giorgio's heart sank, as if struck by a heavy weight. He accelerated his movements and swam towards her at the fastest speed, enfolding her slender waist with his long arms, and bringing her out of the water.
"Anna? Anna?"
He placed her on the ground and called her name twice, but there was no response.
Her delicate face was deathly pale in the sunlight.
A tinge of worry flashed in Giorgio's eyes, a concern he had never experienced before. Naturally, he knelt down, swiftly performing CPR on her.
One compression, another one, and another, pressing on her chest. Then he leaned over, his icy cold lips covering hers to provide artificial respiration.
His first aid technique was highly professional, accompanied by evident nervousness.
It was an emotion he hadn't realized existed in himself.
"Cough! Cough!" Anna breathed in fresh air and coughed out water.
As she opened her eyes, she saw the dazzling light above her, and the handsome, furrowed-faced man.
Giorgio? She was still alive.
And was it him who had given her mouth-to-mouth resuscitation with his soft, cool lips?
He had actually saved her.
Furthermore, was the anxiety between his eyebrows because he cared and worried about her?
Everyone standing by the side was completely stunned!
Who knew that the cold and heartless Mr. Vittorio, who rarely displayed any emotions, even when attending parties with Katherine, would have maintained such a gentlemanly demeanor?
There were rumors circulating privately that their relationship wasn't as harmonious as it seemed on the surface.
But now, Mr. Vittorio appeared to be completely unconcerned about his image and personally saved someone!
It seemed that the rumors on the internet weren't credible at all.
Beatrice was also frozen by the scene.
At home, her relationship with Giorgio and Katherine was considered good, and she understood their relationship well—it was simply mutual respect.
When Katherine was seriously injured on set, she hadn't seen Giorgio so concerned. Why was he acting this way now?
"Giorgio, ever since you came back from your business trip, you've been so good to Katherine. Most couples' feelings fade after marriage, but your feelings have only intensified! I envy Katherine for having such a considerate husband!"
The staff member also commented, "Yes, Mr. Vittorio looks so worried about her. He must be really concerned."
"Mrs. Vittorio is so lucky!"
Anna listened and understood.
She had forgotten that she was now playing the role of Katherine, Giorgio's fiancée.
He could have only done so because she was his wife. Mr. Vittorio, such a cold and heartless person, wasn't even good to his own wife. How could he worry or care about her?
Seeing the woman lost in thought, Giorgio frowned.
"Are you feeling unwell anywhere? I'll have Tom come over."
Anna quickly shook her head, sat up, and felt very uncomfortable with her soaked clothes sticking to her body.
"No need, I'm fine. I'll go back to the room, take a hot bath, and change my clothes."
Giorgio's fabric clung to her body, revealing her seductive curves.
Giorgio narrowed his long eyes and grabbed a nearby suit jacket, draping it over her.
Bending down, he lifted her up in his arms.
Her soft, gentle, and cold body fell into his broad and powerful chest.
Anna's whole body tensed up.
