Chapter 90 Under the lights, an alluring and slender figure emerged from the water. Her hair resembled seaweed as
it spread out behind her, while her exquisite figure was like a mermaid’s, charming anyone who laid eyes
on her.
Coincidentally, Tessa had her back to Nicholas, so the butterfly tattoo entered Nicholas’s line of sight
once again.
Nicholas’s pupils were constricted. The bright red color was eye-catching, so red that he thought it would
bleed at any moment.
He couldn’t see the tattoo clearly due to the distance between them, but this fact only likened the tattoo
to the one from that night in his memory, overlapping his blurry perception of that woman’s tattoo.
Nicholas could feel his heart race all of a sudden. He subconsciously tightened his grip on the glass, the
look in his eyes darkening so much that no light remained.
Tessa, however, hadn’t realized that someone was staring at her from behind the French windows. She
reached up and wiped the water off her face, which looked alluring under the magnificent lighting of her
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsurroundings.
She felt nothing but pleasure as she bobbed in the water for some time. She took a deep breath, then
slid under the surface of the water once again…
Nicholas stood where he was, stunned. He fought hard to suppress the sudden urge he had to tear her
clothes off.
After Tessa disappeared from his sight, he hadn’t seen her appear above the water again.
Instantly, a deep frown formed on Nicholas’s face.
Where is that woman?Don’t tell me… she drowned?
Nicholas’s expression remained unchanged as he hastily put down the glass and strode across the hall
to get outside. He soon arrived at the side of the pool and peered into the water.
The ripples in the swimming pool were disappearing, yet there was no sight of the woman. Worry flashed
across his face as he called, “Tessa, can you hear me? Tessa?”
Meanwhile, Tessa was at the bottom of the pool, water rumbling in her ears. This was why she couldn’t
hear Nicholas’s voice. She had dived underwater to try and see how long she could hold her breath
underwater
In the past, her best record was two minutes, so she wanted to see if she could break her record now.
However, at that moment, Nicholas jumped right into the water!
He dived to the bottom, his eyes searching frantically for Tessa’s figure. A few seconds later, he saw
Tessa at the bottom of the pool, motionless. He immediately swam toward her as fast as he could.
At the same time, Tessa had been holding her breath for a while, and she was reaching her limit. She
opened her eyes and was about to swim up for air when she felt someone hugging her body!
Shocked, she subconsciously opened her mouth to scream, but water immediately rushed into her lungs
from her open mouth.
Air bubbles streamed through the water as Tessa choked, her limbs flailing due to panic. Nicholas was
furious.
Does this woman want to drown herself? Is she so sick of living now?Even if she wants to die, she
shouldn’t die here, of all places!
Exasperated, he held Tessa tightly as he swam forcefully upward. Tessa, however, was so shocked that
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshe didn’t recognize who the person was. Hence, her hands fought to push Nicholas away.
After some struggling, the two still hadn’t broken the surface, and Nicholas had sunk a little instead.
Tessa’s throat was filled with water, which also invaded her nose and mouth, suffocating her.
Nicholas already thought Tessa was drowning, so now that he saw her struggling in pain, he only grew
more anxious.
If this goes on, she’ll die!
His expression sank a little. He didn’t bother thinking twice before pulling Tessa into his arms and
pressing his lips against hers.
As their lips touched, Tessa was stunned and stopped her struggle. Her hands were placed against the
man’s chest as she allowed him to transfer breaths of air into her mouth.
The two were thus entangled in a kiss underwater. Tessa’s long hair spread out around her, and she was
completely dumbfounded.
The perfect and flawless face in front of her belonged to none other than Nicholas!
