Chapter 264 Rescuingj
Ethan had hired Laney to secretly protect J. Her everyday mission was to follow J around
and make sure she reached home safely.
Today, after J and her colleague finished dinner and parted way, Laney followed J in her
motorcycle.
Seeing the truck collide with J''s taxi and both vehicles tumble into the river at high speed,
Laney came to her rescue.
Laney took off her helmet and jumped into the river without hesitation. J was in danger, and
Laney had to save her right away.
Ripples of water exploded on the surface as she plunged into the river.
The moonlight prated the tranquil, icy river, and the car slowly sank into its deep recesses.
Laney dove into the water and quickly swam to the window. The windows were locked on either
sides. She peered through the window and saw that the car wasn''t filled with water yet.
The driver was stuck in the driver''s seat as the airbag had expanded; his eyes were tightly shut.
J was lying in the back seat. The huge impact had knocked her unconscious.
Laney swam around, picked up a stone from the riverbed, and smashed the window. Then, she slid
a hand inside, opened the door, and pulled J out the surface of the water.

Her ability was limited, so she could only save one person.
Laney wiped the water from her eyes. Her pink lips had already turned pale because of the cold
water. She was gasping for breath. Laney gripped J''s waist and swam toward the riverbank.
Fortunately, J wasn''t heavy, and Laney had been working out for years. Otherwise, the two
would have drowned in the turbulent river.
Laney looked around and found that the river was broad, and the tide was growing stronger.
Unfortunately, they were in the middle of the river.
"Miss Lind, can you hear me?"
J was unconscious, and Laney had trouble waking her up. Laney reasoned it was impossible
for her to swim to the river bank with the unconscious J on her back.
The flowing current carried them downstream. Laney tried her best to prevent them from getting
isted. Fortunately, the water washed them to a sand bar in the river a couple of meters away, so
they narrowly escaped death.
Laney dragged J to the sand bar and scrambled to her feet. She took a deep breath and blew
into J''s mouth.
Momentster, J spat out a mouthful of water and began coughing violently. Her pale lips
gradually regained color.
"It''s all right. Any difort or difficulty in breathing is absolutely normal because the water got into
your lungs," Laney said calmly as she gently patted J''s back and looked around for help.
It was a quiet night. They were stuck in the middle of the river, and no one could find them until the
sunlight illuminated the surroundings. After J''s coughing fits ceased, she took a deep breath
and braced her tremblingbody. Then, she looked at the woman beside her and examined the
surroundings. "Miss, who are you? What am I doing here? What happened?"
J didn''t remember anything after the truck hit her. She could only recall the blinding shlight
after which she had passed out.
