Chapter 167
Chapter 167
Moira thought, 'Cynthia must have done it on purpose! She plans to get to know me first and then approach Barclay through me! I still thought that she was weak just now. I did not expect her to be so scheming!'
Afraid that she would expose Barclay accidentally, Moira quickly stood up and was about to leave.
Unexpectedly, she only took two steps forward, and Cynthia called out to her again, "Moira."
Moira did not have the patience to waste time with Cynthia. She turned around and looked at Cynthia expressionlessly. "Ms. Hurst, I'm married to Barclay. You're a rich young lady. I believe many men are attracted to you. There's no need for you to waste time on Barclay."
"You're right."
Cynthia stood up. She did not walk toward Moira but the swimming pool behind her.
Moira found it funny. "Ms. Hurst, do you think your childish method will work?"
There was a distance of more than ten feet between them. If Cynthia fell into the pool, Moira wouldn't be blamed anyway.
However, Cynthia acted as if she didn't hear Moira. "Moira, can you swim?"
She did not intend to wait for Moira's answer. She paused for a moment and continued, "I can't swim. No one is around here. If I fall, will you leave me in the lurch?"
In Moira's opinion, it was a waste of talent for Cynthia not to be the leader of the blackmailing gang.
Before Moira could react, she heard a thud. Cynthia had jumped into the swimming pool!
Damn!
Cynthia indeed jumped into a swimming pool!
Moira looked around and realized that there was no one around.
In the swimming pool, the sound of Cynthia struggling was getting lower and lower.
Moira felt that she was doomed tonight.
Cynthia was simply a scoundrel, yet she still managed to manipulate Moira.
Moira could not bear to see a living person die in front of her.
She quickly ran over and took off her high heels. She took off her necklace and placed it under her shoes before jumping into the swimming pool.
Moira was a good swimmer. As the swimming pool was four feet deep, she quickly stabilized herself and used all her strength to pull Cynthia up.
As soon as Cynthia was pulled up, she pounced on Moira as if Moira were a life-saving straw.
Moira knew that it was the greatest danger of saving drowning people. She was good at swimming, but she was not strong enough. When Cynthia leaned on Moira, even though Moira was standing, Moira was pushed back and fell into the water.
Fortunately, they were near the poolside, and Moira quickly regained her balance. "Don't push me! The swimming pool is only four feet deep. You're more than 5.2 feet tall. If you stand, your upper body will be exposed. What are you afraid of?"
Perhaps because Moira's angry roar worked, Cynthia, who was clinging onto Moira, relaxed a lot.
Moira raised a hand to support herself on the poolside. She gritted her teeth and pulled Cynthia to her.
"Hold it yourself!"
With that, Moira let go of Cynthia and climbed up.
Just as Moira turned around and was about to help Cynthia up, a sharp female voice broke the silence in the garden. "Ah!"
Moira was speechless.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
