“Are you crazy? Knowing that you can’t swim, why did you jump in!?” As soon as she regained consciousness, Baron Stuart roared with a fierce face, but his eyes were filled with infinite pain.
Emily Walker was stunned by his yelling, staring at him somewhat blankly.
What was he angry about?
“I…I just…” Thinking of the ring, Emily suddenly turned her head to look at the swimming pool.
Seeing her expression, Baron Stuart secretly clenched the platinum necklace in his hand. If he had known that this ring could endanger her life at any time, he would never have given it to her so easily.
He looked at her, not daring to imagine what the consequences would have been if he hadn’t been there at the time.
“If you lost the ring, it’s gone! Why did you jump in!? Are you out of your mind or just stupid!? Didn’t you know that jumping in like that could kill you!?” He roared, seemingly both heartbroken and relieved.
Today, he was supposed to be summoned back to Stuart Manor by his grandpa, but recalling their argument last night and her painful, angry eyes, he decided to come back and see if this woman had eaten well.
If he hadn’t returned, would their first argument last night have become their last one?
His anger left Emily somewhat confused. After a pause, she slowly said, “You told me… not to lose it…”
Hearing this, Baron Stuart’s heart skipped a beat, and because of her words, his eyes were once again tinged with pain.
Because he said not to? Since when did she become so obedient?
Calming his tumultuous emotions, his tone softened, but the pain in his eyes remained, “Since when did you become so obedient? Whatever I say goes?”
Emily felt a bit embarrassed and even wronged by his words.
She sniffed, feeling a wave of sourness, and her lips pursed in an instant. She looked at him with pained eyes and choked, “What do you want other people to do then? You are always moody, always getting angry for no reason, and you won’t listen to other people’s explanations… Saying something is wrong, not saying anything is still wrong… You said not to lose the ring…”
Thinking of their argument last night and recalling what he had said to her made Emily feel increasingly wronged. She finally broke down and sobbed.
“Wha… Waa… Why do you always blame others for no reason… You said not to lose the ring, and now you’re angry with me… Wha…”
Perhaps she had been suppressing herself for too long, and Emily cried like a child. Mrs. Noelle, who was standing nearby, couldn’t help feeling heartbroken.
Looking at her crying like a child, Baron Stuart was also heartbroken. Most of his anger disappeared and he suddenly pulled her into his arms, holding her tight as if afraid she might vanish.
“You’re not allowed to go near the swimming pool ever again,” He whispered softly into her ear with a pained heart, wishing for a moment that he could just fill in that swimming pool.
Due to his deep voice, Emily stopped weeping and could clearly feel his tightened arms, strong and forceful.
She couldn’t help but wonder, did she jump into the water because of his words, or maybe because of the importance of the ring?
Ultimately, she realized that, between the two, both existed because of this man.
In the end, it was all because of this man that she jumped into the water without realizing it.
Baron Stuart picked her up and slowly walked towards the living room, then headed to the bedroom on the second floor…
