Only you in my love

Chapter 278 Pick Up The Ring

James thought Emma was going to jump into the lake to commit suicide. He was so scared that he

quickly held her waist and carried her down from the fence.

"Emma, are you crazy? You are going to jump into the lake because of a man!" James said loudly.

Emma was stunned for a while. She didn't realize what had happened until she stood on the ground.

With red eyes, she said, "My ring has fallen into the lake. It's very important to me. I have to pick it up."

"Your ring?" However, James didn't let go of her arm, fearing that she would jump into the lake again.

"Aren't you going to jump into the lake because of Harrison?" James asked.

Emma took a deep breath. Her eyes became redder. "I'm going to pick up my ring. It's very important to

me. Let go of me. I'll look for it."

She shook off his hand.

When she was about to turn around, he grabbed her arm again. "Wait here. I'll pick it up for you."

He bypassed her and stood by the lake to have a look. "With little light, I can't see the lake clearly. I

don't know how deep the lake is. I have never come to such a place."

She calmed down and refused him, "I'll pick it up myself. I don't need your help. The lake is only two

meters deep and I won't drown."

Then she climbed over the fence again.

"Do you really understand me?" Then he reached out and pulled her down. "I've told you that I'll pick it

up for you. Wait here for me."

She had always been afraid of him, because he was always domineering and unreasonable, and loved

shouting at others.

She had no choice but to sob in a low voice. She didn't want him to see her embarrassed look. She

turned around, wept bitterly and raised her hand to wipe the tears.

However, he didn't notice that Emma was sobbing. While observing the lake, he asked, "Is it right

here?"

"Yes." She said in a nasal voice.

Hearing this, James felt sorry for her and slowed down his voice, "Don't cry. I've told you that I'll pick it

up for you. Tell me what it looks like so that I can get it for you."

He began to take off his coat.

The rustling sound made her trust him more inexplicably. She said, "It's a silver necklace with a ring on

it, with the letters H and E engraved on it, the first letter of my and… his name."

"What is it?" He stopped taking off his clothes, shook his shoulder, put on his coat and reached out to

pull her towards him.

He made her face him.

"So this is the token of love between you and Harrison, right?" James stared at Emma as if he was

questioning her.

She looked down and didn't answer.

She meant that what he said was right.

With his hands on his waist, he nodded with a mocking smile.

He pointed at a direction and shouted angrily, "Emma, are you insane? He has left you. Why do you

still keep his stuff?"

Tears streamed down her face.

She raised her head regardless of embarrassment and stared at him firmly. "Yes, I'm insane. I just want

to get the ring back. I didn't ask you to help me. I'll do it by myself."

She pushed him away with all her strength.

She felt aggrieved.

With anger rising in his heart, he grabbed her arm and made her unable to move.

"Emma, listen to me. Don't do such a thankless thing." Then he was about to leave with her. "Don't look

for it. I'll buy you another one. It's much better than the one he gave you."

"Let me go. Let me go." Emma struggled so hard that her wrist was red, but was still grabbed by

James.

She didn't want to lose the ring.

Harrison abandoned her, but the love between them had really existed. The ring carried her love and

memory.

She must find it.

She just wanted to get it back and kept it.

With tearful eyes, Emma yelled at James, "It's different. I don't want you to give a ring to me. I just want

the ring which is given by the one I love. I don't like you. Please leave me alone. Please don't bother

me anymore."

Then he stopped.

He slowly looked back at her and saw the pain, despair and even hatred in her eyes.

He didn't know whether she was thinking about him or Harrison.

His eyes fell on her wrist, which had turned red, and then slowly loosened his hand. There was

sadness in his eyes.

"I know you don't like me, but you can't like that bastard either. He's not a good man. You should forget

him and find someone better in the future, right?" It was the first time that James had talked so kindly.

"Forget him? How to forget him? It's not easy at all." Emma suddenly squatted down, buried her head

in her knees and burst into tears.

Emma and Harrison had been in love for two years.

It was difficult for her to forget him.

It was difficult for her to forget everything they did.

Emma had never cried in front of James. Even if she was forced to kiss with him, she didn't cry in front

of him.

However, thinking of the vicious words Harrison had said in order to protect Adela, Emma couldn't help

crying.

She couldn't help crying even though James was beside her.

Seeing that she curled up and cried like a child because of another man, James felt annoyed.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

"Damn it!" James was annoyed and sad. "Okay. I'll pick it up for you."

He quickly took off his coat and threw it on the ground. Then he took off his T-shirt. He turned around

and walked towards the lake naked to the waist.

With one hand on the fence, he easily jumped into the lake.

According to Emma's description, he began to look for the ring.

Hearing the sound of jumping into the water, Emma raised her head slowly with tears on her face. She

couldn't see James, but only saw the clothes left.

She sobbed in a daze and stood up. She saw water splashing on the lake.

Elena Lake used to be a swimming pool, but later it was transformed into a man-made lake with tiles

under it. The water was not very clear because it was surrounded by a park and a lot of soil flew and

sank at the bottom of the lake.

Since it was a swimming pool, it was not too deep.

James was good at swimming. With the help of the light around the lake, he saw a silver necklace with

a ring falling into the soil.

He picked up the necklace and put it in his hand.

Then he swam into the water.

Then he came to the surface of the water. He swam towards the lakeside and got out of the water.

His wet pants clung to his long legs. His hair hung down, covering his forehead and eyes. Water kept

dripping.

"Here you are." James handed the necklace to Emma and said, "Don't lose it again. I won't pick it up

for you."

His eyes were covered by his hair, so she couldn't see the emotion in his eyes. She only knew that his

face was dark at night.

"Thank… Thank you." Emma took the necklace. The coldness of the necklace shocked her.

James picked up the clothes, shook his hair and said coldly, "I don't like verbal gratitude. If you really

want to thank me, you can go to a dinner party with me tomorrow."

'A dinner party?' Emma was confused.

"I'll send someone to pick you up at college tomorrow." James didn't give Emma time to think about it,

and he didn't allow her to refuse.

He put on his T-shirt and left.
