"You should come over to me."
If Freya wanted to trap her, she at least needed the IQ for that.
She didn't even know where she stood!
The moment Freya was about to jump into the swimming pool, Riley pulled her hard.
Splash!
Freya fell on Riley with all her weight, and the two of them fell onto the ground together!
When the guests heard the noise, they all looked over to them, and saw that it was the Watson sisters that fell on the ground.
"What the hell happened?! Riley, what did you do to your sister?" Lauren suddenly screamed, as if something horrible just happened which led them a huge loss.
Riley was pressed on the ground, she couldn't get up, her back crashed onto the floor.
This was not a game, she was in so much pain that she sucked in cold air, but she showed no expression on the face, she just pushed Freya away, and said, "Why aren't you more careful when you are walking? If I hadn't pulled you in, you would have fallen into the pool."
Freya bit her teeth, and said between the teeth, "You bitch! What are you so complacent about!"
It was in such a low voice that nobody around could hear, the smile on her face didn't fade, her big sister caring about her was applauded by the crowd.
"Of course I am complacent, go for wool and come home shorn, next time you need to use your brain before you do anything. Don't think just because you watched all those series, so you know what to do."
Lauren pulled up her daughter, and patted her all over, "How are you? Are you alright? Did you get hurt?"
"No!"
Riley was still on the ground, and some people passing by reached out a hand to help her up, she lowered her head and thanked them.
Euan and Hendrix both watched the scene, the way she pulled her sister back was so doughty that it didn't looked like a woman, but then again, the way she put her strength into it seemed like a woman that was forced to her limits.
"Miss Watson, you have abrasions on the back of your arm, you need to see a doctor so he can fix you up."
Riley raised her arm and looked at it, the fall scratched her skin off a bit. She smiled, "It's okay. Keep going, don't get too close to the swimming pool. If something like this happens again, I can't guarantee that I can save them."
Regardless of her injuries, she gave the guests generous reminders and made jokes, which won everyone's praise, "Miss Watson, I didn't expect you to be so humorous, haha!"
Euan frowned and was about to leave the table.
He didn't want to watch the drama tonight.
Hendrix was surrounded by a group of beauties, drinking with them one after another, showing his romantic attitude, Riley didn't even bother to watch it.
No wonder they were brothers, they were the same in their heart!
But she had never noticed that Hendrix's gaze was always on her.
Riley hissed as she raised her hand, the pain of both arms came at the same time, the pain was bad, and then she raised her head, but couldn't find the tall black figure in the crowd.
In her heart, she felt an unspeakable loss. Everything tonight, if it was a performance, the only audience she wanted was him.
She wanted him to see that she was not a someone that could be pushed around, she could build up her own world.
But when he left, her interest in acting was gone.
However, the banquet was not over yet, as the host, she couldn't leave early.
"Riley, you are really a scheming bitch. No wonder you could successfully marry into the George family, you really do have some skills." She scanned her sister's fingers with a poisonous look, "Oh, you are not wearing the wedding ring? You haven't been driven yet and you already don't dare to prove who you are?"
Riley was holding on to her bag, her finger stiffened, "If I have the skills to marry into the George family, then I have the skills to kick you out of them Watson family as well, do you believe me?"
"Hahaha! You? Riley, you need to take a good look at yourself, and, I am the biggest shareholder of the Watson Group, the heir of the Watson family is my mother, who are you to fight with me!"
Riley bit her teeth, the one mistake she made was going to hurt her forever, that little girl all those years ago now turned into the ungrateful person today, and she was the one who made the mistake!
"Only if I want to, Daddy's old friends would work together and against the Watson Group, Mr. Nash is only one of them. Let me remind you that Mr. Nash's company is about twice the size compared to the Watson Group."
She had hit Freya in the right spot, who was now furious, "Riley, you are the one who is pushing me!"
Freya grabbed for Riley's bag, and emptied the content, until she saw the shining diamond ring.
"Haha, so it really was in here!"
Freya picked up the ring, and held it in her hands, "Look at me, I wanna see how you can still save it this time!"
"Give it to me!"
“Whoosh”
She raised her arms, and the shining little item flew out in a bell shape, until it landed in the middle of the swimming pool.
"Freya, just wait for it!"
She clasped her arm and laughed coldly, "I am actually waiting!"
The ring, it was her wedding ring! She couldn't lose it!
Riley kicked off her heels, raised her arms and jumped into the pool!
The whole crowd was shocked, even Euan who wasn't too far away, was stopped by the sound of the water.
"Miss Watson! Miss Warson!"
Riley?! What was this stupid woman doing again?!
The water was so cold that it went through her bones, it wasn't the temperature for swimming in an outdoor pool yet since it was not in hottest season in summer, when Riley jumped in the water it was as if her body was steaming, the shock of the temperature made her drunkenness vanish, and she was suddenly sober, she felt cold, and the water in her wounds were paining her.
She didn't have the energy to bother about it, she had to find the ring, she just had to!
She inhaled deep, and bent down to swim to the bottom, it was hard to open her eyes, but she was searching carefully.
The ring! Her ring!
The crowd on the side of the pool all looked shocked, "What happened? What is Miss Watson doing?"
Freya smiled as she explained, "She probably thinks the atmosphere is a little suppressed and wants to cheer everyone up!"
...
"Miss Watson has prepared a show? Wow, she is really good at diving, she must have held her breath for two minutes?"
What the hell!
Hendrix saw Riley jump into the water, and also heard them discussing, he threw his wine glass away, and without even taking his shoes off, he jumped into the water!
Hendrix tried to pull her back up, but Riley was fighting with her life, "Let go of me!"
"What the fuck, are you stupid, are you actually putting a show on holding your breath? If you don't go back up, you will be famous!"
"Hendrix, get out of here, I lost something!"
She pushed Hendrix to the side as she tried to dive in again, the crowd was praising, and taking pictures, the flashes were shining and stinging in their eyes, Riley was really going to be famous.
"You are fucking crazy! What did you lose? Get out first, we can empty the water to look for it."
"You are the one that's fucking crazy! If you let the water out, it will be flushed along!"
She bent down to look for her ring again, she pushed the water with both hands, in the huge swimming pool, the water wave was floating, the reflection of the moonlight crushed, it looked cold and pale.
Hendrix was furious, he grabbed her with both hands and pulled her out, "Get out, whatever you lost, I will help you find it."
Riley looked at the crowd that was watching her with cold eyes, she was so cold that her lips had turned purple, she bit her lips and said, "If you really want to help me then get these people out of here."
Outside the pool, Freya and Lauren finally looked satisfied.
Lauren announced to the guests, "We are really sorry, this child needs some manners, she doesn't know what she is doing, sorry you all had to see this, I will definitely give her a lecture."
"Guys, my sister was deeply affected by the death of our father, she probably thought of him tonight, so..."
She pointed at her head, "Thank you for understanding."
Was this for real? She was the elder daughter of the Watson family, did she really have mental issues? To the point that she would act up at a party?
Euan came back, his black eyes were suppressing, Riley this stupid woman! Could she be even more embarrassing?
"Elijah, come to the Regal restaurant immediately, you have two minutes!"
After he hung up, Euan's pace fastened, his dark aura was covering the place like a storm cloud, "Let me through."
Euan said, the guests made a path for him, when he saw the two of them in the pool, his head almost exploded!
Those two didn't know what they were doing!
"Hendrix, come out!"
Euan demanded, the guests were surprised, Hendrix? What did Euan just call this young man? Was he the second son of the George family that was abroad for a couple of years, the one that was often talked about, Hendrix George?
Oh my--
The eldest daughter of the Watson family lost her mind and the second son of the George family jumped in the water to rescue her, could there be any bigger gossip than that?
"Bro, she..."
"Get out!"
Hendrix bit his teeth, "Bro, she is looking for something but couldn't find it."
Euan's dark eyes looked like he wanted to strangle him, "What does that have to do with you? Are you also crazy?"
Crazy?
Riley stood up straight, she was completely wet and her clothes were stuck on her skin, her curves were hot!
