When There Is Nothing Left But Love (Ashton And Scarlett)

Even the guard’s shirt was drenched with water. “When we hurried over, we saw him pulling Ms. Audrey out of the pool. He must have choked on the water while he tried to rescue her!” the guard replied as he continued to pump Shaun’s chest.

Since Dr. Evans was the Fullers’ private doctor, he lived in the neighboring villa. After a quick phone call, he arrived in just two minutes.

I quickly hugged her and patted her back to calm her down. “It’s all right. Daddy and I are here now. There’s nothing to be afraid of,” I murmured to console her.
