Chapter 304 Rosie wasnt the type to crave excitement , but since everyone would be sharing the same courtyard and seeing each other often , she felt it was nice to have someone to chat with .
The convalescent home was just too quiet .
Rosie asked Amy , Whos moving in ! How old are they ? Is she an auntie , a sister , a little girl , or , someone around my age ? Amy couldnt help but chuckle .
She said , Ms.
Miller , did you ever consider it might be an uncle , a brother , or a little boy ? She wondered why Rosie assumed the new neighbor to be a female .
Rosie was taken aback ; she hadnt thought of that .
She asked , So , is it a gentleman ? people in uniforms moving stuff and staff from the convalescent home .
Maybe theyll Amy shook her head and said , I have no idea .
All I saw were p move in once everythings settled Rosie nodded in agreement .
She said .
Makes sense After a while , the courtyard returned to its peaceful state .
Rosie guessed that maybe the moving was done and everything was organized .
But there was still no sign of activity as if her new neighbor hadnt arrived yet .
As the sun began to set , Amy helped Rosie back inside , and Rosie forgot all about il The next day , it started raining .
Rosie stayed in her warm r usual , wanted to go outside to bask in the sun .
the new neighbor .
room and didnt go out for two days .
On the third day , when the sky cleared up .
Rosie , as Amy helped Rosic put on her coat and guided her to sit in the courtyard , even placing a blanket on the chair .
She said , Ms.
Miller , dont move .
Ill bring out some tea and snacks .
Rosie smiled and nodded .
She said , Okay Im not a child ; I wont move around Amy said , Tll be right back Then she turned and went inside .
Rosie sat alone , the sun warming her body so pleasantly that she squinted her eyes in contentment .
Ever since she lost her sight , her hearing had become incredibly sharp .
She could clearly hear the leaves rustling gently and the gentle flow of the nearby artificial lake .
Suddenly .
Rosies eyes widened , her ears perked up and she sat up straight .

She heard a baby crying .
She pursed her lips and unconsciously clenched her hands .
She stood up abruptly and started feeling her way towards the sound .
The crying grew clearer to her ears .
She murmured , Its right here .
When Amy came out with the tea and snacks , she noticed Rosie was gone .
Her face turned pale .
She shouted and ran out .
Where are you , Ms.
Miller ? Where did you go ? Ms.
Miller ! Ms.
Miller ! Amy didnt go far when she saw Rosie standing by the pond .
Amys heart leaped into her throat .
She screamed , Ms.
Miller ! Rosie was startled by Amys voice and suddenly came to her senses .
She was confused , thinking , Where am It Why am I here ? Suddenly , her foot slipped .
Jeiacrity had experienced two days of continuous rain , and the muddy ground by the lake was wet and slippery .
Rosie lost her bulance and fell into the pond Amy who had caught up was terrified .
She shouted , Ms.
Miller ! Help ! Somebody , please help ! Although it was an artificial lake , it was deep enough 10-17 feet to easily drown someone .
The icy cold water quickly enveloped Rosie , rushing into her nostrils .
Instinctively , Rosie opened her mouth to call for help , Save ..
but not a single syllable escaped before water filled her mouth .
Rosie shook her head in agony .
Her clothes , soaked d with water , became heavier , pulling her down towards the bottom of the lake .
Suddenly , there was a splash as someone jumped into the lake .
1/3 Extra 7:27 AM c c Chapter 301 Just as Rosie was about to suffocate , she felt someone wrap their arms around her waist and slowly bring her to the surface .
Amy stared in shock at the water .
The security guard who had rushed over , ready to dive in and save Rosie , was also stunned .
They looked at each other , all speechless .
They couldnt believe Howard jumped in himself Howard , drenched from head to toe , carried Rosie to the shore .
The security guard quickly moved in to help pull them out .
Rosie coughed , turning her head to spit out the lake water she had swallowed .
Amy hurried over to support Rosie .
She said , Ms.
Miller , quickly , get up .
You need to take a hot bath right away .
Rosie nodded , but as soon as she tried to stand , she fell back down .
She was still shaken and her legs were weak .
Let me carry her , the security guard said as he stepped forward , extending his arm towards Rosie .
Howard frowned , blocking the security guards arm .
He said .
Hold on ! Ill do it ! The security guard paused , stepping back silently .
Amy also tactfully moved aside .
Howard stepped forward , bent down , extended his arm , and lifted Rosie horizontally into his arms .
Rosies eyes widened as she felt a strong unfamiliar presence envelop her .
Although she couldnt see , she knew it was Howard who had saved her .
Feeling awkward in his arms , not knowing where to place her hands , Rosie looked up earnestly and said .
Thank you for saving me ? Howard glanced down at Rosie in his arms and smiled slightly .
He replied , Youre welcome Rosie thought .
His voice is quite pleasant Worried that Rosic would catch a cold , Howard quickly made his way back to the townhouse .
Amy had already drawn a hot bath .
She pointed towards the bathroom and said , This way .
Howard nodded and carried Rosie into the bathroom , then came back out By t the time Rosie finished her hot bath and came out , Howard was gone .
The doctor had already been there to check her over .
At that moment , Amy brought Rosie some water .
Rosie thanked her and sipped it slowly .
Amy questioned .
Ms.
Miller , didnt I tell you not to wander off ? What were you doing just now ? Rosies brows furrowed slightly as she shook her head in confusion .
She replied , Im sorry for the trouble .
Im not quite sure myself, I heard a baby crying Amy was confused and pressed on , Why would you go towards the sound of a baby crying ? Rosie was even more puzzled .
She replied , I dont know .
She questioned herself , Why would I do that? Dont worry about it , Amy interrupted her , Finish your water .
Its so cold out , and that lake water was freezing Rosie nodded and then asked , By the way , do you know the gentleman who saved me ? * Not really .
Amy said , Hes the new neighbor next door Rosie was slightly surprised .
She asked , Has he already moved in ? Amy replied , Yes .
Its been two days now .
Rosie thought , This gentleman must be very quiet , seemingly not one for much fuss ! Next door , Howard took a bath to wash away the chill .
After he got dressed and came out , he saw Amy waiting for him Amy recounted her conversation with Rosie in detail .
Then she said , Thats everything .
Howard waved his hand and said , Understood .
You may go .
Take extra care of her .
If youre ever too tired , Ill arrange for someone to relieve you .
Hearing this .
Amy felt a jolt in her heart .
She replied .
Got it As she was leaving , she pointed to the table and said .
Mr.
Flynn , I left the water there .
Remember to drink it .
Howard nodded .
He walked over to the table and picked up the water .
He thought .
She heard a baby cry and ran towards it , yet not understanding why .
Her condition is more serious than I have imagined .
Howard frowned , rubbing his aching thigh .
He hadnt fully recovered yet , and he had been pushing himself too hard today …
