“Mrs. Belmont, they’re already competing. How can I possibly stop them from winning?”

Nina snapped. “Can’t you figure something out yourself? Do I have to teach you every single thing? And you want to climb into high society? You’re useless!”

Pandra was trying to curry favor with Nina. She wanted to move up in social class.

After being criticized, Pandra said, “Mrs. Belmont, don’t be mad. I’ll find a way.”

She racked her brains. Quickly, she came up with a plan.

“When Mr. Storm carries Teri for the second round, everyone’s attention will be on them. I’ll push Athena into the water. Mr. Storm will definitely won’t be able to finish. Even if he does, his time won’t be fast!”

Hearing this plan, a smile finally appeared on Nina’s face.

When Athena is in the water, the staff would have to rescue her. She’d be embracing the rescue worker in front of everyone. Any man would feel disgusted by that.

Zaden would definitely be repulsed by Athena!

Nina nodded with satisfaction. “I’ll be waiting for your show!”

Zaden quickly completed the first round. He set Athena down on the shore, then picked up Teri to start the second round.

Athena stood on the shore watching Zaden move through the water. She couldn’t help but cheer him on excitedly.

“Zaden! You can do it!”

Just as Athena was cheering enthusiastically, she suddenly sensed a figure approaching. She glanced over out of the corner of her eye, unfazed.

It was Pandra.

She suddenly remembered earlier when she and Zaden had made their entrance. Pandra had deliberately brought up Lewis searching for her all night. It didn’t seem unintentional. More like it was done with malicious intent.

Athena quietly grew wary.

This Pandra was definitely up to mischief.

Pandra stood beside Athena for a while, then looked around. Zaden was carrying Teri and was almost at the other shore. It was the most exciting moment. Everyone’s attention was focused on them.

Athena seemed to be watching them, but didn’t notice Pandra.

She gave a cold sinister smile, then reached out and pushed hard at Athena’s back.

Athena had been on guard the whole time. When she saw Pandra make a move, she stepped aside to avoid it. Pandra had used all her strength.

She never expected Athena would dodge.

Her eyes went wide. Before she could react, her own momentum carried her forward. She plunged right into the pool with a splash.

Water splattered everywhere, landing on everyone.

Athena stood on the shore, watching Pandra flail in the water. A cold look flashed in her eyes.

So she had come over to target her. Good thing she’d kept her guard up. Otherwise she would have been successfully schemed against.

Pandra couldn’t swim. After falling into the water, she kept thrashing around.

“Help… help me …

Hearing the commotion, Zaden stopped. He thought Athena had fallen into the water.

Seeing Zaden stop, Athena shouted at him. “Zaden! Keep going! Don’t stop!”

Hearing Athena’s voice, Zaden knew she was fine.

He quickly carried Teri and covered the last bit of distance.

Seeing Pandra in the water, Ronan said to the rescue staff nearby, “Quick! Get down there and rescue her.”

Without a second’s hesitation, two staff members dove into the water.

Seeing this situation, Nina’s face darkened. She cursed inwardly. Idiot!

That idiot thought she could push Athena into the water, but instead fell in herself. Now she was being carried out by rescue workers.
