884 Words
Hearing this, Diane panicked instantly. If Clayton knew that it was her who nearly drowned Elena, she would definitely get killed! Everyone knew that Clayton was a cruel and cold-blooded man!
"It's eight o'clock now, Lena. I need to go back to school. I'll come to see you when I'm free," Diane said, and before Elena could answer, she packed her bag and left quickly.
Elena watched Diane leave in a hurry with a sneer, and then she slowly put down her phone. She was not on the line with Clayton at all.
After Diane left the ward, she hurried to the dormitory and madly searched for her ID badge. She was afraid that Elena had really ripped off her ID badge into the pool, but Diane was paranoid. She wouldn't believe anyone easily, so the first thing she did was to go back to the dormitory to search for her ID badge.
She rummaged through the room but failed to find her ID badge. She instantly turned deathly pale. That i***t really ripped down her ID badge?
At the thought of it, Diane kicked the door of the dormitory with a bang!
"Wait, if Mr. Warren decided to help that i***t and went to find the ID badge. I would be screwed!" Panic overtook Diane when she thought of this.
She looked around and only found a badminton racket for scooping. Diane didn't dare to delay any longer. She hurriedly headed for the school pool with the badminton racket.
Today was the weekend, and it was night when Diane arrived near the pool, so there were very few people around and no one would notice her no matter what she did.
She squatted beside the pool and shone the flashlight over that pool, trying to scoop out her ID badge with the badminton racket.
However, she only scooped out a lot of discarded garbage. There was no sign of her ID badge at all. "Where is my f*****g ID badge? Stupid people always throw garbage into the water!"
But Diane didn't know that she was being watched by a girl in black, who was hiding in the bushes not far from the pool. The girl grinned as she saw Diane's movements and took pictures of Diane on her mobile phone. She had guessed it right! It was Diane who wanted to kill her!
Elena put her phone back and tiptoed to Diane without being noticed. And then, she gave Diane's butt a good hard kick!
"Ah! Help! Help! I can't swim!"
Diane was soaking wet the moment she fell into the water, and she screamed in despair.
She struggled, poking her head out of the water and sinking again. She choked on the water several times and got water up to her nose, thinking that she was going to die.
Diane felt panic. Death was coming to her this time...
After kicking Diane into the pool, Elena hid behind the bushes and watched her struggle in the water.
And then Elena stared at the watch on her wrist with calmness until the minute her hand turned a circle, she ran away and shouted, "Help! Someone is drowning! Help! Help!"
Although the path around the pool was empty, Elena's shouts still caught a few people's attention and they hurriedly ran towards the pool.
Seeing that someone had come to rescue Diane, Elena clapped her hands and left as if nothing had happened.
After all, Diane had done the same thing to her before. She had to teach Diane a good lesson!
As people say, an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth!
This was her first counterattack since her rebirth. Elena had never done such a thing in her previous life. After doing this, Elena was so delighted that she started humming a tune.
She sang and even danced as she walked.
However, happiness won't stay forever. The next moment, Elena bumped into something that made her wince in pain.
"Excuse me! Are you blind? Keep your eyes on the road!" Elena frowned angrily and got so dizzy that she couldn't see clearly what she bumped into.
"Clayton?" When Elena saw the man's face, she was stunned. She flinched and stammered, "Clay... Clayton, are you here for me?"
Elena tittered, staring at him with an innocent look as if she had nothing to do with what happened in the pool right now.
But shouldn't this guy be at the airport now? What was he doing here?
"Are you done?" Clayton said icily.
He kept a straight face as he talked to Elena, who could tell nothing from the tone of his voice.
"I... I've done nothing!" Elena said, embarrassed. Why did Clayton say that? What had he found? Elena knew that this sharp man always had a keen eye for detail.
Clayton gave Elena a cold stare and narrowed his eyes when he saw her in black. Then he took Elena's hand and said, "Go home with me."
Elena was stunned by Clayton's moves. His hand... Clayton always looked as cold as stone, but his hands were unexpectedly warm.
Elena didn't shake his hand off as always. She was lost in thoughts when Clayton held her hand and walked away. The memories of her previous life slowly arose in her mind...
