Chapter 653
Emily took the subway back to the TV station, being preupied with her own thoughts. Anyway,
she was just his wife on agreements, he didn''t have to report to her whether he went on business
trip or traveled abroad. What he did was perfectly justified!
Although she told herself this in her heart, when she stepped into the office building, she couldn''t
help but take out her cell phone.
She hesitated for a while on the word "Simon", and then she dialed the number subconsciously.
As she heard the beeping sound, she held her breath nervously.
He hadn''t been picked up for a long time. At this time, the elevator door opened, and her colleague
Tina was running out with two cameras on her shoulder. "Emily, you are back! Come on, our chief
editor just gave me an urgent task. Come with me!"
"Okay!" Emily hung up the phone in a hurry and helped to pick up the camera.
The ce of interview was set in a private ce. The main task assigned to them was to interview
an old painter of the contemporary art. Since it was a newly opened public welfare program, every
department attached great importance to it. It took them a lot of effort to get the old painter agreed
to be interviewed.
For inspiration, the old painter took an hour to boat on theke every afternoon, so the interview
was fixed on the boat.
Since the boat wasn''trge and spacious, and the boatman could only agree for one more person
added, Emily carried one camera. ''Til do it! Tina, you shoot us and scenery around on the shore for
publicity!"
"Okay!" Tina nodded.
After they rified their own tasks, they officially stated the interview.
This ce had a dense growth of evergreen trees. With breeze passing by, theke glittered in the
sunlight. Seeing from the shore, the scenery was iparable. After they paddled out across the
middle of theke, they stopped with the best light, which was near to the opposite bank.
Half an hourter, Emily closed the microphone in her hand. "Okay, that''s all. Mr. White, thank you
for your cooperation!"
"My pleasure!" The old painter waved his hand with a smile.
"Ill put the machine away first, and then when we go back to the shore, could you please tape a
short video for follow-up editing for me?" After saying that, Emily got up and tried to turn off the
camera on the bow.
When she stood up again, she thought something on her had been scraped off. She moved slightly
to figure out what it was, and then heard a very light "puff" sound. At the same time, tiny ripples
quivered across the surface of theke.
"Oh no!"
Emily couldn''t help but let out a soft cry.
Seeing this, the old painter bent over and asked with concern, "What happened? Did something fall
off?"
When Emily just straightened up, she felt that her neck was strangled. So when she raised her hand
and touched her neck again, her ne was gone as expected. "My ne..."
What she heard just now should be the sound of it falling into theke.
"Give it up!" The old painter sighed, shook his head and said, "I lost a paintbrush a few days ago. It
sank so I couldn''t find it. It''s my favorite. I hired people to salvage it for a whole afternoon, but... Oh
my God, young girl!"
Under the shocked gaze of the old painter, Emily directly jumped into theke.
"Plop -"
Water sshed onto the boat.
Tina, who was taking a photo with her coat on the shore, was scared and shouted loudly when she
saw the scene in the camera, "Emily!"
They were pretty close and they often hung out together. Although Tina knew very well that she
could swim, after all, this was not a swimming pool. No one knew how high the water level of the
artificialke was. It was still dangerous to jump down like this.
Tina nervously paced on the shore and watched. At this time, her mobile phone rang.
She looked down and saw that it was Emily''s. The word "Simon" was shown on the screen. Tina
was stunned for a moment. She didn''t know who it was, but since her name had been recorded, the
caller shouldn''t be a stranger for Emily. She was afraid that it might be an important phone call, so
she picked it up. "Are you looking for Emily? Her ne is gone. She just jumped into theke
and picked it up..."
Hearing from the phone, the male voice was a little deep. "Ne, again?"
Tina was just about to ask who he was and if there was something she could tell to Emily, the next
second she shouted in a low voice. "Ah! What should I do? She is drowning..."
Emily felt like she had lost all strength, and kept falling.
She couldn''t control herself, no matter how hard she struggled and she couldn''t shout out. Imagines
rose before her. When her parents being sent to the hospital, she cried herself hoarse against the
ss miserably, but her parents were lying there silently with their eyes closed...
As Emily was losing her consciousness, she could feel alternately hot and cold.
"Am I going to die?"
In a trance, she felt as if her father was holding her. In the distance, her parents looked like they
were on her birthday. They wereughing and calling her with a ne in their hands. "Baby,
happy birthday!"
Mom and Dad...
Emily slowly opened her eyes. She saw a white and shapeless mass, but the smell of disinfectant
made her more conscious. She gradually recalled what had happened. When she put away the
machine, her ne identally fell into theke. She wanted to jump down to look for it.
In fact, she was good at swimming, but she didn''t expect that her right calf suddenly cramped...
Emily wanted to raise her hand, but she found that she was being held tightly by a big hand at this
time. Along the thick palm, there was a strong arm, and she saw a pair of beautiful eyes.
Simon was wearing a dark gray suit with a striped tie. The cor of the white shirt inside was new.
He looked exhausted. The sky outside had already failed, against the wall, he looked more serious.
She couldn''t help but be stunned.
The person who was least likely to appear sat in front of her. Emilyy there dumbly, swallowing
hard so that she could be sure if she was still in a dream and what she saw was an illusion.
Tina, who was pouring water nearby, heard the sound, quickly put down her cup and ran over.
"Emily, you''ve finally woken up. You''ve scared the sh*t out of me!"
"Don''t worry, I''m fine!" Emily blinked her eyes and slowly shook her head.
"Thank God!" Tina patted her chest, and also looked at the opposite side of the bed like her. She
remembered that she almost called him Simon before. She exined awkwardly.
"He called you, and I picked it up!"
Emily suddenly realized why he knew that she drowned...
But wasn''t he supposed to be in Bayworth City?

Emily opened her mouth and uttered a word,
"You..."
