“What’s the matter?” I exclaimed in worry.

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.

Even after the guard completed the first-aid measure, Shaun remained unconscious. In haste, the guard carried him into the house. “Move aside! Contact Dr. Evans right now!” he yelled as he ran.

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.

The sudden incident threw the Fuller residence into a state of utter chaos. Worried about Shaun’s wellbeing, Yuna and James trailed after the guard’s heels.

Although Ashton was keeping Audrey company, I decided to pay her a visit and calm her emotions.

As expected, I heard Audrey’s sobs the moment I made my way upstairs.

When I entered the bedroom, Audrey was huddled in Ashton’s arms. Furthermore, there were tears and snot streaked across her entire face.

“Mommy, I want a hug,” Audrey whined when I arrived at the foot of the bed.

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.
