Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas) novel Chapter 924

Chapter 924 Fell Into the Swimming Pool

Eunice couldn’t count on Edward to save her as well, as he purposely looked down to avoid looking at her. The next moment, a big splash was heard as she fell into the swimming pool on the balcony.

Although it was already spring, the weather was still rather cold, not to mention how cold the water in the pool would be. Nicholas merely stood still and looked at her coldly while Eunice was startled by how cold the water was.

Meanwhile, the people at the venue came running over after hearing the commotion. Noticing that, Eunice, who was planning to get out of the water, had second thoughts. Although she didn’t pay that much attention to her image when she was having fun, she couldn’t bring herself to come out of the pool all wet and half-naked, since it would make her feel ashamed.

Just then, a few men felt bad for her and offered to help when they saw how pale she was as half of her body was submerged in the pool.

“Miss Eunice, hold on to my hand, and I’ll pull you up.”

“Miss Eunice, you can put on my coat before you come out of the pool.” The man removed his coat and offered it to her as he spoke.

However, Eunice ignored all of them while she stared at Nicholas. It was obvious that she wanted him to pull her up, as she didn’t believe that he would be that cold-hearted and not help her out in front of that many people.

In fact, the cold Nicholas had no intention of helping her out, and Eunice’s expression turned grave after the cold hard truth dawned upon her. The crowd seemed to have guessed what was going on after observing both of their expressions.

Some women couldn’t bear seeing those men’s actions, so they started making sarcastic remarks. “Can’t you tell that she didn’t want your help at all? Don’t you feel embarrassed for approaching her and offering to help her when she doesn’t appreciate it?” Upon hearing those remarks, the men who offered to help felt embarrassed. Fortunately, Walter and Addison had rushed over in time after hearing news about it.

Right after, Walter left with the frustrated Eunice. Before she left, she glared at him displeasedly but looked away with indifference when she noticed that he wasn’t looking at her. The crowd dispersed soon after.

Addison excused himself and returned to the party, as he had to attend to the other guests. Soon, only Nicholas and Edward were left on the balcony. Nicholas then waved his hand, signaling Edward to go over to him.

Seeing that, Edward went up to him and asked respectfully, “Yes, President Sawyer?”

“Let’s go back.”

Hearing that, Edward nodded, and both of them walked out of the club after a few minutes. Edward drove them back, and it wasn’t too late at night when Nicholas reached home. Upon entering the living room, he looked around the quiet room and asked Sebastian, “Where’s Tessa and Gregory?”
