Chapter 561


    “J!” Seeing J unconscious on the ground, Elizabeth hurried back to help her up.


    Only then did she realize just how pale J’s face had be.


    She anxiously wiped the sweat off J’s forehead and said, “Answer me if you can hear me, J!”


    But J didn’t respond. In a panic, Elizabeth held J’s wrist to feel her pause. She even


    unbuttoned J’s shirt and lowered her head to listen for a heartbeat.


    “What on earth…” Elizabeth was scared out of her wits. Her eyes were full of shock and all the color


    drained from her face.


    She couldn’t feel a pulse, nor could she hear J’s heartbeat!


    She stood up and looked around in a panic.


    It was already the wee hours of the morning. Most of the other colleagues had already gone home. The


    whole office was dark, save for Draco’s office.


    “Mr. Wesley, are you there?” Elizabeth shouted urgently. “J has fainted. We have to take her to the


    hospital right now!”


    As soon as Draco opened the door, he saw J on the ground. Eyes widened, he ran to her side,


    asking Elizabeth, “What happened?”


    “I don’t know exactly.” Elizabeth shook her head. “She was fine one second, and the next, she passed


    out.”


    “Let’s see if we can revive her. Maybe it’s because she has been working non-stop.” Although Draco


    had never studied medicine, he had received training on CPR before, so he immediately began to treat


    J.


    He grabbed a cushion from the nearest chair and put it under J’s head. Then hey her body t


    on the ground. Disregarding everything, he unbuttoned J’s shirt, crossed his hands over her chest


    and tried to revive her.


    After hesitating for a few seconds, Elizabeth said falteringly, “Mr. Wesley, do you think I should do it?”


    Draco didn’t answer. He was too focused on giving J CPR. Without pausing to look at Elizabeth, he


    said, “This is not the time to worry about social conduct. Go get the office building’s AED equipment


    and call 911. If this doesn’t work, we’ll have no choice but to wait for the ambnce.”


    Just now, Draco couldn’t hear J’s heartbeat. It seemed that she was in a temporarya. The only


    thing he could do now was to give her CPR as best as he could.


    Elizabeth was usually a calm and collected woman, but right now, she was in a state of sheer panic.


    Without saying anything, she ran downstairs to get the AED and handed it to Draco. Then she called


    911.


    Draco switched on the AED and stared at J’s bra hesitantly. After weighing his options, he took off


    her bra for her. He had to.

    Holding his breath, he concentrated on the procedure and quickly pressed the two paddles against


    J’s chest. “1, 2, 3… Clear!”


    But seconds passed and J still wasn’t breathing and her lips started to turn a deathly shade of


    blue.


    Sweat started to form on his forehead. Draco gritted his teeth and repeated the procedure.


    This time, he finally got results.


    J’s heart started and she gasped for breath. While her life wasn’t in fatal danger anymore, she was


    still unconscious.


    Draco’s clothes were soaked in cold sweat.


    Fortunately, about ten minutester, the ambnce arrived.


    Draco hoisted J up and helped her get on the ambnce.

    At the headquarters of the Larson Group’s Barnes branch.


    It was already past midnight when Ethan’s meeting ended. He was about to go home when he received


    a call.


    “Mr. Larson, you have toe to the hospital. J’s in critical danger.” Ethan instantly recognized


    Draco’s voice.


    “I’ll be right there.”


    Without a minute to lose, Ethan rushed to the hospital Draco mentioned.


    When he arrived, there was already a small crowd of people standing by the door to the emergency


    room. Beal and Johanna had also rushed there as soon as Draco called.
