Chapter 334: Chapter 334

334 Something Has Happened

Cedric was tall, and Isabella looked very small in front of him.

Feeling Isabella’s resistance, Cedric caged her between him and the cabinet with his arms. Then he held her wrists behind her with one hand and reached out to unzip her dress.

Isabella was a little nervous when her tight dress got loose. Cedric held her neck with his hand, wanting to take off her clothes.

“Wait! Don’t!”

Isabella was scared, so she bit Cedric. Cedric groaned and left her lips. Isabella immediately said, “Cedric, why did you do this? You hurt me...”

“Help!”

Screams suddenly came from outside the door.

The two were stunned. The voice outside the door grew louder. “Someone fell into the water! Help! Help!”

“Something happened to Stella?”

.....

“Hurry up! Save Ms. Stella!”

“Mr. Joseph!”

“Mr. Joseph!”

Different people shouted at the same time.

“What happened?” Isabella pushed Cedric away. “Something seems to have happened! Let’s go out and take a look!”

Both Stella and Joseph had fallen into the water.

The deck was in chaos.

Gerry and bodyguards jumped into the water one after another. In the darkness, the glowing water was like stirred ink, gloom and terrifying.

Isabella lay on the railing and saw Joseph poke his head out of the water. He came to the surface with Stella who had blacked out.

Although the people present didn’t know what had happened, it was lucky that both Joseph and Stella were fine.

The people on the deck helped Joseph and Stella up the shore. However, Stella didn’t seem to feel good. Her face was pale when she was in a coma.

Joseph hurriedly took off her tight dress and began to press down on her chest.

Stella’s body heaved with Joseph’s movements, but she still had no reaction.

“Stella! Stella!”

Joseph seemed to panic. He pressed even while he could not stop himself from trembling. “Don’t scare me! Stella! It’s all my fault. Wake up! Wake up!”

However, Stella still did not respond.

Zachary cried out, “Stella! My goddess! Don’t die! Don’t die!”

Joseph pushed away Zachary, who was in his way, and began to help Stella with CPR. Joseph pinched Stella’s nose and poured the air in his chest into hers, mouth to mouth. Cedric and Gerry wanted to help, but Joseph rejected.

Isabella lowered her head in dismay when she saw Joseph seem to shed tears in panic and despair.

Joseph really loved Stella. As expected, he couldn’t live without her...

Stella suddenly coughed.

Joseph’s efforts finally paid off. After nearly three minutes of first aid, Stella finally coughed out a mouthful of water and regained her senses.

“Thank goodness!”

Cheers came from the surrounding people. Zachary was so happy and he almost jumped up. Tired, Joseph suddenly fell to the ground. He then raised his head, closed his eyes, and let out a relieved sigh.

“Mr. Joseph, since Ms. Stella wakes up, quickly send her to the room. Her clothes are drenched. I’m afraid she will catch a cold.”

“I’ll do it.”

Cedric stepped forward to help. He wanted to pick Stella up. Isabella hurriedly took a towel from the side and handed it to Cedric when she saw that Stella was in a very awkward state because of first aid. “Cedric, wrap her up with this.”

When Joseph heard Isabella’s voice, he raised his head, panting. He sneered when seeing that Isabella covered her chest with one hand and the zipper on her back was pulled open.

Isabella stared at the ground. Before she could look up at Joseph, he suddenly stood up from the ground and pushed her away. Then he bent down to pick Stella up. “Don’t touch Stella. I’ll take her to the room.”

Isabella staggered and lost his balance. She grabbed the railing but her nails split. Then she groaned in pain.

Cedric stepped forward to grab her arm. “Isabella, are you alright?”

Joseph rolled his eyes at them and turned to leave...

The crowd surrounded Joseph and Stella as they left. The deck slowly became quiet.

“I’m fine.”

Isabella put her hand behind her back, her eyes red.

“What happened to your hand?”

Cedric pulled Isabella’s hand away. He frowned and then turned serious. “Joseph has passed the line! I will warn him to be more respectful to you!”

Isabella hurriedly pulled Cedric back. “Stella almost died. Just now, Joseph was just anxious. Don’t get angry with him.”

“He loves his woman but I won’t allow him to hurt my girl.” Cedric said with a sullen face, “I can’t let it go easily. He must apologize to you for his attitude just now!”

Isabella forced a faint smile. “It’s okay. He is not important to me. I don’t care about his attitude towards me.”

Cedric froze when he felt Isabella’s grievances. His heart seemed to be grabbed and he felt heartache. “Isabella...”

“Forget it.”

Isabella comforted Cedric with a smile, “I know you love me the most, but we can’t be so petty. After all, it concerns Ms. Stella’s safety. She is also your friend. Don’t pick on him. Maybe they will think that I am unreasonable.”

Cedric frowned slightly. Clearly, he didn’t agree with Isabella’s words. “Then wait in your room. I’ll fetch the medicine box to bind up your finger.”

In the cabin.

Stella was lying on the bed. Although she had regained her consciousness, she was on the verge of breaking down. She was crying and shouting herself hoarse, grabbing Joseph. As she was so emotional, Doctor Morris didn’t know what to do. In the end, the psychologist who came with them gave Stella a shot of sedatives to calm her down. Then she fell asleep.

Outside the room, Jayden, Zachary, and Joseph, who had been friends with Stella since their childhood, waited with concern. The psychologist asked Joseph, “Mr. Joseph, Ms. Stella’s condition is getting worse. Her mood has just recovered but now it seems to be seriously affected. If possible, can I ask why Ms. Stella suddenly jumped into the water?”

Everyone turned to look at Joseph. Joseph’s eyes darkened but he didn’t answer the question. “What should we do now?”

“I need to check her up tomorrow. If the result is not good, I may need to take her back to the hospital for urgent treatment.”

The psychologist was a middle-aged woman. She seemed to know something of Joseph and Stella’s relationship. She said, “Forgive me for asking. Mr. Joseph, did Ms. Stella jump into the water because of you?”

Joseph closed his eyes as if he didn’t want to recall what had just happened. “Yes.”
