Chapter 38 Rescued From The Water
By the time Harrison arrived in the backyard, a few maids had already pulled Serena out of the lake. Her entire body was drenched, and she was trembling uncontrollably. She let but weak, labored coughs
A tight knot formed in Harrison’s chestes a fleeting trace of undisguised concern flashed in his eyes
without hesitation, he removed his tailored suit jacket, crouched down, and draped it over Serena’s shoulders. His eyes carefully examined her from head to toe.
“Are you hurt anywhere be His voice was filled with concern.
Sema had swallowed some water, and her reddened eyes made her delicate features look even more fragile and helpless. In a faint voice, she replied, “I think. I twisted my ankle.
Without hesitation, Harrison lifted her into his arms and carried her toward the Irving room.
As they passed through the corridor, Marcus had just caught up
Noticing the grim expression on Harrison’s face, he quickly stepped aside and asked cautiously, “Uncle Harrison, is Aunt Serena alright?–
Harrison did not even spare him a glance as he carried Serena straight pasti
Marcus wisely refrained from pressing further. He could tell that at this moment, Harrison was very angry.
Martha had already heard from the maids about Serena falling into the lake. She stood anxiously in the Ining room, waiting for them. The moment she saw Harrison carrying Serena inside, she hurried forward, filled with wOLLY.
“serena, are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere?
Serena managed a faint smile; her voice soft and reassuring as she said, “Grandnsa, I’m fine. Please don’t worry.”
Hearing her response, Martha finally let out a breath of relief.
“As long as you’re not injured.”
“Lews.” Harrison’s voice rang out abruptly.
Lewis immediately responded, “Mr. Spencer.”

Harrison’s Bone was cold and commanding “Keep a close watch on everyone here. Until this matter is fully investigated, no one
Lewis obeyed without hesitation. “Understood, Mr. Spencer.”
“Aho, bring Dr. Holloway here”
“Yes, sir.”
After giving the orders, Harrison burned to Martha, his tone softening slightly “Grandma, I’ll take Serena upstairs Brst”
Marthanodded in agreement “Co quickly and have her change out of those wet clothes, or she’ll catch a cold.”
“Alright”
Harrison adjusted his hold on Serena, securing her more tightly in his arms. He strode upstairs without delay
He carried Serena into the en–suite bathroom and gently placed her on the countertop. He crouched down, calding her left foot into his hands. Seeing the faint swelling around her ankle, a trace of distress flickered in his eyes.
“You hurt your foot Can you manage on your own?!
Serena nodded. “Ican.”
Harrison stood up, his arms wrapping around her waist as he carefully lifted her off the counter and placed her on the floor
“Be careful. I’ll be just outside. Call me if you need anything.”
“Alright”
Without another word, Harrison turned and left, closing the bathroom door behind him
As soon as he was gone, Seres quickly undressed, gripping the wall for support as she carefully moved under the shower. The moment the warm water cascaded down, the chill that had seeped into her bones finally began to dissipate.
A few minutes later, a series of knocks sounded from outside the bedroom door. Harrison planerd toward the bathroom before striding toward the room door.
When he opened the dour, Lewis‘ figure appeared.
“Mi Spencer, Dr. Holloway has arrived”
Damien Holloway greeted respectfully, “Mr. Spences.”
Harrison pave a slight nod and said in a steady voice, “She’s still in the shower. Walt here for a moment.”
Damien replied, “Lundenstand ”
Lewis then spoke up to report, “Mr. Spencer, there are no surveillance cameras in the backyard, but I did flad two people who seemed suspicious.”
As he spoke, he skillfully operated the tablet in his hands and pulled up footage from the outdoor loungearen

Lewis remained radious. “Mr. Spencer, we can’t jump to conclusions just yet. It’d be l “Lunderstand,”
A moment later, a soft and somewhat anxious voice care from inside the room. “Mr. Spencer”
