Memories Of The Night 496 Chapter 496: I Can't Take This

Seeing Katrina's look, Amy understands that a man must have hurt Katrina, so she rejects the ring very much.

Amy feels that instead of throwing the ring into the river, she may as well accept it...

Amy thankfully accepts, "Okay, okay, I'll take it!"

Seeing Amy accept the diamond ring, Katrina feels rea.s.sured.

From the surroundings, Katrina knows clearly that the young couple is not very well off.

Anyway, this diamond ring can help them through a difficult time in their lives.

In return, Amy saved her life.

In this way, it is a reward for Amy's saving her life.

Amy helps Katrina cover the quilt and says, "Miss, you can sleep for a while. If your family comes, I'll wake you up."

Katrina nods obediently, "Okay. Sorry to bother you."

Katrina closes her eyes and soon falls asleep.

Then Amy goes outside and begins to wash clothes and do housework.

About an hour later, Eric and Joseph arrive at the Songwo Village.

This village is very small. The villagers all live by fis.h.i.+ng.

Certainly, everyone knows who has saved a girl from drowning a few days ago.

Joseph asks politely about it. And under the guidance of the villagers, they come to a small courtyard.

Seeing a woman in her thirties doing laundry in the yard, Eric asks, "Is there a girl living in your house? She has fallen into the water before."

At this moment, Eric can't wait to see Katrina.

But before he sees Katrina, he feels nervous. He's afraid that something bad may happen. He's afraid that what he has been expecting will fall through.

Amy looks up and finds two men standing in front of her.

Although the old man is very old and grey-haired, he still has a remarkable bearing. Amy knows at first glance that the two men are rich people in the big city. As the poor in the small village, Amy clearly knows they are not the same kind of people at all.

"You are that girl's family?"

Amy's statement is tantamount to acknowledging that there really is such a girl in their house.

Eric becomes excited, and he immediately nods and answers, "That's right! I'm her grandfather. This is my grandson, that girl's cousin!"

After confirming that the two men are the relatives of that girl...

Amy picks up a dirty cloth to wipe her hands, standing up from the stool and says, "She's in the house. Follow me!"

Amy leads the way into the room.

Joseph quickly takes Eric's arm and follows Amy.

Katrina is still sleeping when they enter.

Amy walks towards the bed and says, "Girl, your family is coming to pick you up and go home!"

Eric had hardly entered the door when he saw a girl lying in bed.

That familiar face is indeed his precious granddaughter.

After looking for her and worrying about her for so many days, Eric is afraid that she really has had an accident…

Now Eric finally sees Katrina. He really feels excited, even wanting to cry.

Not having the heart to wake her up at this time, Eric quickly lowers his voice, "Don't wake her up. Just let her sleep. We'll take her back after she wakes up."

Hearing this, Amy quickly stops calling Katrina.

Amy looks at Katrina, feeling relieved that she doesn't wake her up.

Amy also lowers her voice, "Well... Please sit down. I'll prepare some water for you."

After Amy goes out, Eric staggers to the bed with Joseph's help.

Seeing Katrina in bed, Eric feels very distressed.

His baby granddaughter becomes thinner.

Her face looks even paler.

Fortunately, she has met a kind person, so she can survive luckily.

Otherwise...

He really can't imagine how painful it is for him to experience the loss of his loved ones again at such an old age.

Not long after, Amy comes in with two gla.s.ses of water and hands them to Eric and Joseph, "Please."

Eric is very grateful and takes it, "Thank you!"

Eric sits in a chair in front of the bed, accompanying Katrina.

Amy goes on to work outside.

Joseph comes out.

"Thank you for saving my cousin," Joseph says in a sincere voice.

If it weren't for the kind couple, the consequences would be unthinkable.

If Katrina really can't come back, maybe Eric will spend the rest of his life missing and suffering.

He might not be able to sustain himself for a few days if he really had to suffer such a severe blow at his age.

The couple has saved not only Katrina but also the entire Simon family.

Joseph certainly feels very grateful.

Amy smiles plainly as she washes her clothes, "It's no bother. We're also happy that the girl can wake up."

Joseph knows that saving people is the instinct of these kind people.

They don't know that Katrina is the family member of the Simon family, the richest family in Abbe City. They have no other purpose, and they don't want to get something in return.

But...

Apart from money, Joseph doesn't know how to express his grat.i.tude.

Joseph takes out a million-dollar check and hands it to Amy, who's was.h.i.+ng clothes.

"This is our grat.i.tude. Please accept it."

Amy stares at the cheque...

A series of zeros even shakes her eyes.

It takes her a long time to see clearly the number on the check.

One million...

She has never seen so much money in her life.

They just saved a girl who had fallen into the water while they were fis.h.i.+ng. Now the girl's family wants to pay them one million dollars.

Actually, Amy guesses that that girl should have a good family background.

But Amy has never imagined that the girl's family should be so rich!

After the shock on her face, Amy quickly refused, "No! I can't take this!"

They have only done a trivial thing without spending much time and energy. How can they accept so much money?

Even if she accepts the money, it will still prey on her conscience.

Additionally...

Just now, the girl has given Amy a diamond ring as a souvenir.

Amy has already felt a little uneasy. If she accepts the money now, perhaps she can't even fall asleep at night.
