Fortunate to Have You This Lifetime - Chapter 443:
Chapter 443: Chapter 444 She’s Done_1
Indeed, Cleo’s body maneuvered around the swaddling clothes, raising its long neck, preparing to snatch the woolen set from the baby.
Purple Summers couldn’t help but sigh softly.
“If this doesn’t work, we’ll just have to let Tiny try again,” she thought.
But just then, a chubby little fist emerged from the swaddling clothes and gripped Cleo’s woolen set firmly!
“Ah, the child is awake!”
“She’s reaching out her hand!”
“Quick, look! The snake is beginning to wrap around the child!”
“Could the child be in danger…”
The chatter was incessant, everyone watched the situation in the middle of the lake intently, their nerves stretched to the breaking point.
The little baby inside the swaddling clothes seemed to treat the woolen set on its body as a toy, holding onto it tightly and waving its little fists.
Cleo, unable to snatch its woolen set, began to coil around the swaddling clothes and slowly slither toward the shore.
Tiny behaved like a supervisor, bossing around and strutting with its neck held high.
Whenever Cleo slowed down, Tiny would nibble on Cleo’s tail!
Cleo, annoyed after several nibbles, immediately sped up, eager to get back to shore so Purple Summers could help it put on the woolen set quickly to avoid Tiny’s torment!
Seeing this scene, the people on shore finally felt the weight lift off their chests!
The child was saved.
As the python neared, they could even hear the child’s giggling laughter. The little baby apparently thought the python was playing a game with her!
Purple Summers bent down to pick the child up from the python’s wraps and handed the baby over to Mrs. Farrell, whose tears immediately burst forth.
“My child…” she held the baby close, showering it with kisses, tears wetting the baby’s little face.
Little Baby was fine, smiling innocently. Apart from being a bit cool, she looked very healthy.
Everyone comforted Camilla Farrell.
“The child is safe now, Mrs. Farrell, you can rest assured!”
“Those who survive a great disaster are destined for good fortune; this child is surely blessed.”
“Look how happily she’s laughing. Such a dangerous situation today, and yet she encountered such luck; she’s destined for a great fortune.”
Purple Summers said to Camilla Farrell, “Madam, take the child to the hospital first to be checked.”
No matter what, the child had been lying on the bitterly cold ice for so long, there could be a chill or illness, and whether Jade Carlson did something else to the child, all this needed to be thoroughly examined at the hospital.
Camilla Farrell cared for the child’s health more than anyone, so much so that she didn’t even think to deal with Jade Carlson, lifting up the child and walking away immediately.
The nanny and the bodyguard hurried to follow.
As for the remaining people, having watched an entire drama unfold, now murmured and reflected with all kinds of emotions.
Police and the rescue team arrived shortly thereafter, and Dylan Summers quickly went to greet them. Although the child was saved, there still was a corpse waiting to be recovered from that hole in the ice.
Jade Carlson, slumped on the ground, seemed dazed, as if unable to accept such an ending.
A police officer grabbed her arm to pull her up when she suddenly began to struggle frantically: “This has nothing to do with me! You can’t arrest me; I just brought a bottle of realgar wine, I didn’t do anything! I did nothing! —”
Purple Summers approached her, a cold smile on her lips, “Jade Carlson, look up over there.”
Jade Carlson froze, looking over in a daze before she saw a small, inconspicuous camera mounted on a high tree branch.
“Cameras like this one are everywhere around the house; what you did and how the child ended up on the ice, all of that must be recorded quite clearly,” Purple Summers said.
Jade Carlson’s face turned ashen, staring blankly at Purple Summers.
At that moment, she finally understood that there was no longer any chance of turning things around…
She was finished.
