The moment the wedding ceremony was over, Arvin rose up from his seat to leave. He had to find Angela, since she had been out for over ten minutes.
He turned around to find Angela's bodyguard quarreling with Nita. He got suspicious and so he went over to them and asked, "What happened? Where is Angela?"
"Mr. Gu, Miss Angela stood in the doorway for ten minutes, but now, she is in the back yard of the hotel," replied the bodyguard.
"She stood in the doorway for ten minutes? Why?
What happened to her?" Arvin asked the bodyguard. He paid no attention to Nita.
Nita immediately replied, "Arvin, Angela asked them to take me away. I don't know what happened."
"Then take her away!" Arvin interrupted Nita bluntly before she could finish talking, turned around and walked away.
Rosa saw Arvin leaving so she hurried up to him and asked, "Arvin, it's a little crowded in here. May I go out with you?"
Arvin glanced around the hundreds of people in the dinning hall, said nothing and strode ahead.
Rosa followed after Arvin to the back yard. It took Arvin almost three minutes to find Angela because he didn't know where she was exactly.
From a distance, Angela was seen pushing what seemed to look like a dark shadow into the swimming pool, who then screamed out as it fell in.
This startled Arvin, who walked closer only to find Angela in an unpleasant state. With a cold look in his eyes he asked, "Angela, who did this to you?"
Angela trembled in anger, furiously looked up at Arvin, ignored him and tightened the jacket the bodyguard had given her.
Arvin tore off Angela's suit jacket, and tossed it back to the bodyguard who was only wearing a shirt. Then he took off his own dark blue jacket, and put it on her.
In the swimming pool, Nita screamed out, "Help.... I can't... swim... Hum... Arvin... Help me..."
Rosa looked at Nita who was terrified and crying for help. This made her feel happy and she thought to herself, 'She deserves that!'
Angela pushed Arvin away, stared at Rosa behind him, and said, "You two were having a pretty good chat, right? Now all of a sudden you're concerned about me again?"
He clearly understood that Angela was mad, so he asked the bodyguard beside her, "What happened?"
The bodyguard lowered his head and said, "Someone spilled a bucket of water on Mrs. Gu when she was in the bathroom. Miss Zhen was the only person to walk out at that time. So......"
It was quite apparent that it was Nita.
Arvin understood what had happened and ordered the bodyguard coldly, "Go get a room for my wife. Buy a set of new clothes, have some ginger soup prepared and delivered to the room." Arvin disregarded her struggling and held Angela in his chest, who was wet all over. "Darling, how could you not tell me about this?"
Nita was still struggling intensely in the swimming pool, but no one paid heed.
Angela pushed Arvin away, "Don't be pretentious. When I was being hurt, you and your fiancée were having a lovely chat. I couldn't expect you to take the time to care about me, could I?"
... He really wanted to talk about the moment she saw him and Rosa talking but instead said, "Let's go back to the room first, or you'll get sick." In spite of Angela's opposition, he held her up sidewards and walked on. He then pointed at Nita and asked another bodyguard, "Get her out, and wait for further notice."
"Yes, Mr. Gu."
