Love Contract

Chapter 60 Falling Into The Water By Accident

The gathering of the Public Relations Department was held around the swimming pool of Rome Holiday Hotel.

Mary thought that she would have to pay at her own expense. But, it was actually Andy's treat. 'Wow! She's different after becoming a manager. She is rich now.'

"Mary, could you accompany me to buy a swimsuit later this noon?" Jane asked as she came over.

"Hmm... Okay!" Mary wrinkled her nose and wondered if she should also buy one for herself.

"What swimsuit? Where are you going?" Kevin asked. He came out as soon as the elevator door had opened.

"Why are you here? It's almost lunchtime," Jane said.

"I attended a small meeting on behalf of the CEO this morning. I'm here to report the situation." Kevin smiled. "By the way, are you going to have fun? How about I go with you?"

"Go away," Jane said as she waved her hand.

Kevin touched his nose and went straight to the CEO's office happily, without annoyance.

"Jane, can you swim?" asked Mary.

"Of course." Jane nodded. "How about you? Do you know how to swim, Mary?"

"No, I don't. My hometown is not near river or sea so I can't swim," answered Mary as she shook her head.

"Oh, it doesn't matter." Jane smiled. "Swimming is not a big deal. The point is to wear a swimsuit. Anyway, boss won't go..."

Mary said nothing.

As soon as it was time to get off work at noon, Jane could not wait to leave with Mary.

"Women are so crazy." Kevin shook his head. When he turned around, he found that William was standing quietly behind him. "Ah... Boss, are you going to have lunch?"

"Yeah." William put his hands in his pockets. He asked casually, "Where are they going?"

"Oh, they are going shopping," Kevin answered. "I heard that the Public Relations Department has booked a swimming pool in Rome Holiday Hotel. They went to buy swimsuits."

"Swimsuit..." Hearing that, William frowned imperceptibly.

When Mary and Jane came back, both of them were exhausted

Ding!

As soon as the elevator door opened, Mary walked in sullenly.

"You're back?" She heard William's voice suddenly above her head.

"Hmm?" Mary raised her head and stood straight. "Well."

"Hello, boss!" Jane emerged from Mary's behind and saluted.

"Hi." William nodded and was about to step out with his left foot when he stopped. After hesitating for a moment, he asked Mary, "What did you buy just now?"

"Hee hee." Jane could not help but laugh when she heard her boss.

"Go away!" Mary told Jane to leave. She then turned around and answered William, "I went shopping with Jane but I did not buy anything."

"Okay." William snorted and glanced at the shopping bags in Mary's hand. He said nothing but when he turned around to go back to his office, it was obvious that he was unhappy with her answer.

According to the weather forecast, a wave of heat would come to A City this weekend. At this time, Mary felt great. She was lying on the lounge chair in bikini while drinking ice cold beverage and enjoying the cold wind of the room.

"Mary, come down. It's cool in the water!" Jane poked her head out of the swimming pool and greeted Mary with a smile.

"No, I'll take a rest first." Waving her hand, Mary lay back and closed her eyes to rest.

"Mrs. Lan is so leisurely," a coquettish voice said.

Mary opened her eyes slowly and smiled at the person who just spoke. "Thanks to you, Andy."

"Ha ha." Andy raised her glass and smiled back. "Then Mrs. Lan, enjoy yourself."

"Andy, congratulations to you on becoming a manager."

"Thank you." Andy raised her eyes. "But I can't compare with the performance of you who have been promoted to be the vice manager in just three years."

Mary sighed and wondered, 'Is she jealous? She has already become the general manager.'

Just as Mary was enjoying absentmindedly, she felt a splash of water on her body.

"Ah!" The coldness of the water made Mary scream and jump up. "Ha ha!" Jane laughed so hard that her belly ached. "Mary, ha ha!"

"Jane!" Mary wiped the water on her face and said angrily, "It seems that I'm really kind to you. Come here, I'll teach you a lesson!"

"Ah... I'm sorry, Mary!" Jane ran away while laughing.

"Stop!" Mary shouted as she ran after Jane as if to teach her a lesson.

"Is that why you have to come here for a meal?" Lucas asked the person who was staring at Jane and Mary, while smiling. They were seated in the second floor of the hotel by the glass window.

Still looking at the two women who were chasing and playing by the pool, William said slowly, "I just heard that the food here is delicious."

"Oh really? But I heard that the food here is very ordinary. It's the rooms in this hotel that are special," said Lucas with a happier smile.

"You heard wrong." William glanced at him calmly.

"Ha ha," Lucas snickered. "Actually, it's not bad to get a room by the way."

"Fuck off!" William picked up a tissue and threw it at Lucas, with a long face.

"Don't be shy. You have done everything! In fact, that night was unforgettable, wasn't it?" Lucas raised his eyebrows.

'He shouldn't have come with me!'

William snorted at the thought and looked at the swimming pool unconsciously, ignoring Lucas.

Mary was having fun. She almost caught Jane, but at the critical moment, Jane jumped into the swimming pool.

Mary squatted on the poolside as she tried to pour water on Jane. Unfortunately, before she could do so, she felt her feet slip and fell face first into the water. With a loud sound, water splashed from the swimming pool.

Nobody paid her attention as everyone thought that Mary decided to go swimming. Only after Jane screamed did they realize something was wrong.

"Mary doesn't know how to swim! Help!" Jane shouted at the top of her lungs.

This caused several men in the Public Relations Department to jump into the water to save her.

"Mary!" Watching the commotion, William's eyes darkened. He shouted upstairs and ran out of the room without thinking.

Lucas also stood up and ran downstairs with William.

As Mary struggled in the pool for a few seconds, water flooded into Mary's stomach and lungs. She could not breathe and felt everything went hazy. She fainted in an instant.

Mary had just been pulled out of the water when William and Lucas arrived. She was unresponsive. With her eyes closed, she looked like a drowned rat.

"Mary!" William shouted and rushed to her side.

"Boss..."

"Boss is here!"

"Oh my God, boss!"Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Everyone made way for William.

"Get out of my way!" With a livid face, William pushed the man who was squatting beside Mary and rushed to her aid.
