A gentle cool breeze blew through the window into the room but was quickly mitigated by the warmth
inside.
Christina was startled by the movement behind her and woke up. When she opened her eyes, she realized Nathaniel was
hugging her tightly.
It seemed his grip was more aggressive today.
She rubbed her eyes and gently pushed him away. “Nathaniel, I need to get up.”
Christina’s gentle voice woke Nathaniel. He opened his eyes, revealing a hint of languidness.
He was in a good mood after having a well-rested sleep last night.
“I’m going back to the Hadley residence. I’m sure Mrs. Hadley wasn’t pleased when I didn’t return last night.”
Christina rolled off the bed and did a stretch. Her thin dress clung tightly to her body, revealing her slender and sexy figure as
she raised her arms.
Nathaniel kept his gaze fixed on her until she entered the bathroom.
Shortly after, Christina came out of the bathroom, decked in black. She hurriedly headed downstairs and grabbed a few pieces of
bread before leaving in a car.
Christina was long gone by the time Nathaniel changed his clothes and headed downstairs.
Without any hesitation, Nathaniel got in a car and asked the driver to take him to the Hadley
residence.
When Christina arrived at the Hadley residence, she saw Julia sitting in the living room, sipping coffee from an exquisite
porcelain cup. She was like a jasmine flower in full blossom, exuding an air of elegance and gracefulness as she sipped the
coffee brewed using coffee beans that were specially air-

flown in.
Christina approached her and said, “My apologies, Mis. Hadley. I wasn’t able to come back yesterday as I was working overtime
at the office.”
Julia glanced at Christina calmly and replied, “I’ve seen the progress. Go ahead and carry on with your
work.”
Julia was pleased with how the gown was coming along, and hence, did not question Christina further about her absence last
night.
Christina heaved a sigh of relief when she heard Julia reply.
She headed upstairs and continued with her work in the room, carefully fixing the eight embroidered jasmine flowers onto the
gown. Along with some embroidered petals adorning the flowers, the overall design looked perfect.
As Christina looked at the gown she had painstakingly created, a satisfied smile appeared of her face. Next, she removed the
thread soaked in the water infused with jasmine flowers and hung it on the

balcony. The thread could be used once it was dry.
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
Christina answered, “Come in.”

One of the Hadley family’s housekeepers entered. “M. Ada, Mrs. Hadley is asking to meet you in the backyard.”
“Did Mrs. Hadley mention what it’s about?” Christina asked curiously.
“No, she didn’t.”
Christina did not inquire further. She followed the housekeeper down the stairs and to the backyard.

There was a big swimming pool on the right side of the backyard. Julia was nowhere in sight, but Christina noticed another
slender figure.
The housekeeper left without a word after bringing Christina to the poolside.
Madison had a hint of slyness in her eyes as both women exchanged hostile glances.
“You’re the one looking for me?” Christina questioned. She had already guessed the housekeeper was lying about Julia waiting
for her in the backyard.
As Madison stared at Christina’s crystal clear eyes, she could not help but feel the similarity. “You’re Christina, aren’t you? If
that’s not the case, why do you dare not take off the mask?”
Christina’s heart started beating faster. She did not want to engage with Madison, so she tried to brush her off. “I’ve no idea who
you are talking about. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.”
“Are you feeling guilty, Christina? Watch as I tear off that pretentious mask of yours!”
With that, Madison pushed Christina, who had turned to walk away, into the swimming pool!
She has to remove the mask for sure once she gets wet. I’ll finally know if she’s indeed Christina!
Behind the mask, Christina’s eyes instantly widened in shock. She did not expect Madison to go to such extremes. Her heart felt
like it had stopped beating as her body lost balance and fell toward the swimming pool.
At the last second, Christina grabbed Madison’s curly tresses, resulting in them falling in tandem.
Madison was smirking and feeling proud of her ingenious plan when she suddenly felt a sharp pain on her scalp.
The two simultaneously fell into the swimming pool with a loud splash.
Christina, who did not know how to swim, swallowed several mouthfuls of water. To make matters worse, her bulky mask
interfered with her breathing
Soon, she started to encounter difficulties breathing.
Madison also took in a few mouthfuls of water after falling into the water unexpectedly. She noticed Christina struggling in the
water and began to swim toward her. “You crazy woman! I shall see how you

Madison was certain that Ada and Christina were the same person. Hence, she was determined to expose her true identity in
front of Julia.
She did not want to continue letting Christina gain brownie points from Julia by using the pretext of designing a gown.
Madison reached the struggling figure and was ecstatic when her hand touched the mask.
However, Christina’s limp body suddenly gained strength from nowhere, and she gave a powerful kick to Madison’s abdomen,
sending the latter under the water in pain.
Christina had mustered all of her remaining strength to that kick. Her body subsequently went limp. and slowly sank to the
bottom of the pool.
Who... Who can save me...
Christina could hardly breathe. It was as if her lungs were filled with water and about to burst anytime.
Her eyelids began to droop slowly. Amidst the blurriness, she saw a tall figure diving into the water.
The figure swam swiftly toward her and grabbed her just as she was about to pass out.
Meanwhile, Madison, who had swallowed several more mouthfuls of water, could distinctly recognize the figure as Nathaniel.
“Nathaniel, save me! Nathaniel...” Madison kept calling out feebly. She firmly believed that Nathaniel would not leave her behind.
But she was wrong.
She watched in shock as Nathaniel carried Christina and swam to the top without looking back.

A sharp pain bolted through Madison’s body as if she was being skinned alive. As she watched. Nathaniel’s retreating figure, her
eyes widened in anger.
Her body began to tremble uncontrollably with rage. If one’s murderous expression could kill someone, Christina would be
shredded into pieces by Madison at that moment.
Meanwhile, Julia and the housekeepers rushed over after hearing the commotion and were stunned by what they saw.
A soaking wet Mr. Hadley is carrying Ms. Ada in his arms? Did he jump into the water to save a female stranger? These were the
thoughts that first came to everyone’s mind.
Before they could even react, they heard Madison’s dry for help in the pool.
Even though nobody had any idea what had happened, Helen immediately sent two housekeepers into
the pool to rescue Madison as saving her life was more important at the moment.
Nathaniel looked at Julia with a darkened expression and bloodshot eyes. “Please give me an explanation later.”
With that, he entered the house with Christina in his arms.
Julia was baffled by Nathaniel’s words. Is he mad at me because of a designer? This is ridiculous!
Boiling with rage, Julia turned to look at the drenched Madison with an ice-cold expression. “Shouldn’t you be explaining what’s
going on here?”
