Chapter61
The atmosphere was tense, everyone was anxious to “get Reece out“.
Julissa didn’t say anything. She was hurt a little bit, so it would be the same when she went back and found a hospital to see herself…
Not until the stretcher was lifted did the crowd realize that something was caught. Upon closer inspection, they found that Reece’s hand was tightly gripping Julissa’s skirt.
The gaze turned towards her, Julissa felt a bit embarrassed.
She tried to pull her skirt, but Reece held on too tight and she couldn’t move it at all.
All eyes were fixed on Julissa, making her feel uncomfortable.
Why is everyone looking at her? She can’t possibly take off her skirt!
Cristina saw this scene, and the hatred in her eyes continued to linger.
Without waiting for Cristina to speak, James preemptively said,
“We had to leave immediately.”
With that, he walked past Cristina and went straight to Julissa.
“Offended Ms. Rivera.”

Then Julissa was lifted horizontally and placed on the air together.
Julissa asked, “??“.
Reece’s warm breath was so close that it spread out on her cheeks.
She awkwardly swallowed and prepared to turn over, her back to Reece.
Little did she know, James was right beside her, reaching out to firmly grasp her shoulder before speaking with certainty and seriousness.
“I’m sorry to have inconvenienced you, Ms. Rivera.”
Julissa said, ‘
The rescuers lifted the two of them onto the speedboat, and Cristina couldn’t bear to watch their intimate appearance any longer.
“They all got on the speedboat, let’s quickly put Reece down.”
They held her like this, leaving the future young mistress of the Diaz Group with no dignity.
But James shook his head firmly.
“No, Mr. Diaz was covered in injuries now. Moving him around might reopen the wounds and make the injuries worse!”
With that, he discreetly nudged Julissa into Reece’s arms.
He still maintained a serious expression on his face.

“Ms. Hurley, let them lie down like this for Mr. Diaz’s body!”
The group first arrived at the rescue station, where Reece’s body was briefly disinfected and bandaged.
“Mr. Diaz’s wound infection was severe and ulcerated, he needed to be rushed to the hospital for treatment.”
They hurriedly took Reece to the local hospital for treatment.
When Julissa woke up, she found herself lying in the rescue station, receiving IV fluids, while everyone else had taken Reece to the hospital.
She was not seriously injured, just received some glucose to replenish her energy.
Julissa moved slightly, feeling weak and sore, but her first instinct was to reach for her backpack.
The backpack that was not washed away by the water, the one that had to be kept at all costs…
Julissa looked around and finally saw her bag at the head of the bed.
She excitedly opened her backpack, and inside lay a huge stone quietly.
Everything was worth it.
I’m sorry, Reece.
“Julie!”
The familiar male voice pulled Julissa’s immersed thoughts out,

and when she looked up, she met Zayne’s extremely anxious eyes.
“How are you?”
Julissa didn’t answer, but couldn’t wait to share her treasure with Zayne.
“You see this stone! It is definitely a rare treasure that comes once in a hundred years!”
Her voice was excited, with the bandage still clearly attached to her forehead, but it seemed as if she had come back to life in an instant.
Zayne sat down beside Julissa, panting, and gave her a helpless look.
“You, you’re really a lunatic.”
“Let me see how the injury is?”
Julissa sat obediently, allowing Zayne to inspect.
“It’s okay, they are just superficial injuries,” Julissa held onto the stone, reluctant to let go, with a hint of guilt in her tone, “But Reece, he is more seriously injured.”
“How could he have fallen down with you?”
Zayne was puzzled, how could Reece, who always acted cautiously, allow himself to get into this situation?
Julissa hung her head.
“It was my fault. I sneaked back and he caught me. Then when

he was helping me dig stones, we fell in together.”
Zayne was even more perplexing.
“Did he personally help you dig the stones?”
Julissa nodded.
Zayne couldn’t understand it at all, this was completely out of Reece’s character.
Unless, the stone was really that stunning.
“Zayne,” Julissa moved her hands and feet slightly, “I’m feeling much better now. I want to go to the factory to have this stone cut.”
She couldn’t wait to see the original appearance of this stone.
“You still need to rest,” Zayne refused, “Take a few more days off.”
“Oh, not letting me go, I couldn’t rest at all!”
Zayne saw how hard Julissa was working to protect the stone, and he knew that if he didn’t take her with him now, she would be really upset.
