Chapter 75
A calculating glint flashed in Tracy’s eyes. Just as she was about to lean back and break the railing to fall into the artificial lake, she suddenly saw William striding over from the corner of her eye.
She immediately pulled Vanessa’s hand, then shouted loudly. She then leaned back and deliberately lost her balance.
This way, William would see Vanessa push her.
The wooden railing behind her was knocked down by Tracy.
Tracy had already closed her eyes and was waiting to fall into the water. Seeing that she had not fallen even after a long time, she opened her eyes.
She saw Vanessa grabbing her wrist and looking at her with a faint smile.
Tracy’s eyes flashed. She let out another scream and threw herself backward.
Vanessa felt a force that almost pulled her down, so she quickly let go.
Tracy fell into the man–made lake with a splash.
“What’s wrong?” William strode over.
He had heard Tracy scream a few meters away. It seemed that Vanessa had pushed her. Now, Tracy had fallen into the water. Hearing William’s voice, Vanessa’s heart suddenly skipped a beat. She subconsciously explained, “Ms. Yost threw herself into
the lake.”
She looked at William and asked. “Do you believe me?”
She was actually afraid that he would misunderstand her.
She suddenly realized that she could no longer be as calm as before.
She cared about what he thought.
“I believe you!” William walked over and held Vanessa’s hand.
Vanessa’s panicked heart suddenly calmed down, and her restless emotions also calmed down.
“William… Save me… Ugh…” Tracy was struggling in the water.
She was bobbing in the water.
She fervently wished that William would jump into the water to save her.
This way, Vanessa would see William care about her after she tried to drive a wedge between them.
William glanced at Tracy and took his phone out to call the butler. “Mr. Smith, someone has fallen into the lake. Get someone to come and save her.”
When Donald Smith heard this, he was shocked. “Okay, I’ll bring someone over immediately.”
The family was having a banquet today, so everyone who came here was important.
If one fell into the artificial lake in this weather, one would catch a cold even if one didn’t freeze.
He had failed in his duty as a butler!
He immediately called out, “Josh, Michael, come quick. Someone fell into the lake. Hurry up and follow me to save them.”
Upon hearing that someone had fallen into the artificial lake, a few servants hurriedly ran toward it.
The news spread quickly, and Yvonne heard it too.
She brought her cousins to the artificial lake as well. Her first thought was that Vanessa had fallen into the water.
She subconsciously sneered.
She thought to herself that Vanessa must have schemed against Tracy and jumped into the water herself.
The man–made lake wasn’t very far away, so the butler and servants arrived quickly.
Two servants jumped into the lake and fished Tracy out.
Tracy’s entire body was wet. The mink coat on her body was drooping and her wet hair was stuck to her face.
Her face was deathly pale and her lips were pale. She was trembling all over and her teeth were chattering.
Her eyelashes were also wet, making her look miserable and pitiful.
“Quick, carry her to Mr. Wil… Mr. Barron’s room and prepare a change of clothes for her.” The butler almost said the wrong

thing. When he saw Vanessa standing beside William, he suddenly remembered that William had already gotten married and had nothing to do with Tracy
“k” Yvonne clicked her tongue and looked at Vanessa unhappily.
She did not like both Tracy and Vanessa.
“What’s going on? Why did she fall into the lake?” Yvonne’s cousin asked.
“Who knows.” Yvonne was feeling down today.
“Could it be that someone pushed her into the lake?”
“Don’t talk nonsense.” Yvonne said.
When her mother video–called her, she said that Vanessa was sensible, filial, considerate, kind–hearted, and responsible. It was just that she came from a bad background. In the end, both her mother and brother were deceived by Vanessa’s appearance.
“Let’s go and take a look. We have nothing to do anyway.” A cousin pulled Yvonne forward.
Everyone went to the building where the main branch of the Hawk family lived.
“Karin, quickly make some soup and bring it over,” the butler instructed a servant.
He then instructed another servant, “Hurry up and fill the bath with hot water for Ms. Yost.”
Tracy kept trembling.
Barron had gone to Arthur’s study with William earlier. Arthur had asked William in front of Barron how he lost the contract worth more than 60 million.
William glanced at Barron and told his grandfather that the base price of the contract had been leaked, so the other party was unwilling to sign it.
It was his negligence, but it was also a good thing. It meant that their firewall was not good enough. These problems were exposed in advance. After improvement, such things would not happen again in the future. It could be considered as spending more than 60 million to buy a lesson.
Barron originally wanted to take the opportunity to criticize William for mismanagement, but William spoke first, so he found it hard to say anything.
Also, William glanced at him from time to time, giving him a very strong sense of oppression.
He guessed that William had already found the path of his hacker hacking into the system. If William saved the path and Barron criticized William in front of their grandfather, William would take out the evidence. He would be at a disadvantage by then.
Therefore, he could only pretend to smile and say that a contract worth more than 60 million dollars was not a big deal to Hawk Group. It was fine as long as the firewall was repaired.
After William left, he also left.
After smoking a cigarette downstairs, he heard that someone had fallen into the lake.
He immediately rushed over to watch the commotion, only to discover that it was Tracy who had fallen into the lake.
His expression darkened as he took Tracy from the servant’s arms.
Seeing that Barron had taken Tracy away, the onlookers were too embarrassed to follow.
Yvonne turned around and saw that her stupid brother was still holding Vanessa’s hand. She felt even more annoyed.
Tracy took a shower and drank the soup prepared by the servants. She got under the covers, feeling better.
At 6.30 PM,it was time to eat.
Everyone went to the dining room for dinner.
William and Vanessa had not arrived yet, and Yvonne had not sent a WhatsApp message to her brother.
She couldn’t muster any energy.
Madison Hawk came in.
Yvonne immediately called out, “Mom”
“Yes?” Madison smiled gently and dotingly. “Your brother and sister–in–law aren’t here yet?”
“I don’t know.” Yvonne pouted.
She really wanted to tell her mother now that Vanessa was a scheming woman.
Chapter 75
Just then. William came in holding Vanessa’s hand.
Madison was all smiles. “Vanessa, come quickly. Sit here, right next to me.”
Today, all the important family members were here. She had to let everyone know that she valued her daughter–in–law.
People were like that. If you valued someone, others wouldn’t dare to look down on that person.
“Alright.” Vanessa replied.
Yvonne quietly turned sideways, not wanting to talk to Vanessa.
Vanessa glanced at Yvonne. Seeing that Yvonne was not looking at her at all, she felt a little upset.
She pursed her lips. She knew that it would be futile to explain such a misunderstanding as they still did not know each
other too well.
Some things could only be handed over to time, but Vanessa still felt sad.
Vanessa walked over and sat down beside her mother–in–law.
William also sat down beside her.
Barron came over with Tracy in his embrace. He was all smiles as he said, “Everyone is here today. I have a happy announcement to make.”
