After they were out the door, Frederick walked to the courtyard like a sparrow that had escaped from its cage. He did not care what the woman behind him was doing or if she could catch up.
As Regina trotted, her heart beat wildly while looking at the magnificent figure in front of her. Her face reddened, and her body was shivering due to the cold weather, but she never took her eyes off him. Neither of them said a word the entire time. Regina merely looked at him with admiration, and her eyes were filled with adoration. She had wanted to initiate a conversation with him several times. However, her mind was completely blank. When she saw that they still had no interaction even though they were reaching the edge of the compound, she grew so anxious that she was sweating.
She had never seen a man with such an outstanding temperament; he was completely different from any other men she had met before. Regina's heart beat furiously as she kept fiddling her hands and pursing her lips over and over again.
When they reached the end of the compound, Frederick paused for a split second and turned around mechanically to head back. When she saw him turn around and pass her by without even looking at her, her heart sank.
Growing up, many men pursued her due to her beauty. Therefore, her parents had always been strict about her dating. They taught her to cherish herself so she could find a better man in the future.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis was the first tthat she was ignored by a man entirely! As if her youth and beauty meant nothing to him. Regina did not like this feeling. However, it had also stirred up her competitiveness at the stime.
When she managed to catch up with him, she grabbed his sleeve and asked, "Frederick, do you hate me?" Frederick stopped in shock as if he had just recovered from his thoughts. He tilted his head and looked at her. With a light snort, he said, "Yes..." In actuality, he was absent-mindedly looking at Alicia's social media updates and comments the entire stroll. All he heard were noises; he had no idea what she had said at all. Because he wasn't paying attention, nor did he care about her thoughts, Frederick merely gave her a simple reply.
As soon as he gave her a reply, he continued forward. Since he was interrupted, he unconsciously slowed down his pace a little. Not because he wanted to wait for her, but because he felt that he was walking too fast and the tthey spent outside was too short. He was afraid that he would be in trouble when they returned.
Even a fool could understand his neither cold nor enthusiastic, casual nor evasive attitude. Regina's eyes widened in disbelief as she suffered a blow. She could not believe such a personable, noble, and well- educated man did not show her the slightest respect, let alone act like a gentleman.
She was upset. At this moment, Regina, who had always been proud, was inexplicably attracted to him.
She moved her feet and felt another cold wind blowing. She shivered as goosebumps crawled all over her legs. She looked around inadvertently and found that they were by a pool. At this time, the sparkling and cool feeling instantly penetrated Regina's heart.
With a flash of inspiration, she strode forward and said, "Frederick, slow down. Wait for me-" She purposely shouted and tilted her body.
However, she had also truly stepped on the hem of her skirt and staggered. The next second, a splash could be heard.
"Ah! Help! I cannot swim..." A woman's cry for help echoed, and the servants who were throwing garbage in the courtyard heard the sound and ran while shouting, "Somebody, someone fell into the water!" Frederick turned around slowly. He acted as if he could not see what was going on. He was stunned for two seconds as he watched the person struggling in the water. Then he moved his feet but stopped immediately. He could tell she definitely knew how to swim. She was only doing so just to get attention! Just then, Levi and a few servants also ran out, "Master Frederick?" "What are you doing standing there? Hurry up and save her!" Even though he seemed to have ordered imperatively, Frederick did not move at all. He pointed at a maid by his side and said, "What are you looking at? Get a towel or a torn blanket, or something like that!" "Eh? Alright!" Torn blanket? The maid was stunned. She turned around twice and almost ran in the wrong direction. Then she went to the storage room and found an old blanket.
On the way back, the maid's mind was still spinning. Did she hear wrongly? There was no torn blanket at all. An old blanket should count.
Just then, Mrs. Clements and Mrs. Clark also rushed out when they heard the noise from inside.
"Regina, are you alright? Did you get hurt?" "What's going on? Levi, Levi, go get a doctor!" Mrs. Clements glared at Frederick when she saw the mess in the courtyard.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"What are you doing? How did you take care of Miss Clark? I am really sorry!" "Hurry! Let's go inside before you catch a cold!" Because Regina was soaking wet, she was shivering from the cold; the woman looked extremely haggard., The maid took an old blanket, wrapped it around her, and supported her. Even Mrs. dared not get too close to her. On the other hand, the sensible maid brought her a glass of warm water and a very clean white towel.
"Cough, cough..." Regina's face was pale as she kept shivering. She held Mrs. Clark's hand with a very considerate and sensible look on her face.
"Mom, Mrs. Clements, cough cough, I was careless. How embarrassing. I've made such a fool of myself..." In other words, she wanted to imply that it had nothing to do with Frederick! Frederick scrutinized her condescendingly and felt as if he was watching a farce, he sneered.
However, he neither refuted nor explained the whole time. He merely let his grandmother rebuke him, and the pair of mother and daughter defended him pretentiously.
Soon after, Mrs. Clements found a set of clothes for Regina to change. As she looked haggard, the mother and daughter did not stay any longer. They got up, and Mrs. Clements saw them to the door. "I'm so sorry! Who would've thought such an accident would happen. I'll invite you again when I have the chance! Frederick, go and walk Mrs. Clark out." Coincidentally, Frederick's phone rang, and he took the opportunity to excuse himself, "Sorry, I have to take a call. Levi, please send Mrs. Clark and Miss Clark off! By the way, get a doctor to take a look as well!" Without waiting for them to respond, he turned around to answer the phone! Mrs. Clements was so angry that her face was visibly red and she gasped for air. The mother and daughter dragged their stay and comforted her.
After standing for a while, they could only reluctantly get in the car.
On the other side, Frederick had been talking on the phone and nodding. When Frederick heard the car leaving, only then did the move the phone away from his ear. When he looked back, he found that his grandmother was standing behind him, glaring at him with anger. "You rascal, cin!"
He followed his grandmother all the way to her bedroom closed the door. After he obediently listened to After he ot Mrs. Clements's scolding, he said, "Grandma, I really have someone I like!"
