Chapter 1828
At noon the next day, Tina didn't have lunch with Bonnie. Instead, she took off her work card and took a taxi to the nearby century shopping mall. She was going to see Selene.
An hour ago, Selene called her and carefully asked for her help.
Selene told her what she wanted on the phone. Like before, she'd like to meet Dylan, so she needed Tina to invite him out again. However, since the last incident, she repeatedly emphasized that they would meet in the mall and promised that it would not be dangerous this time.
Tina intended to refuse directly, but Selene's tone on the phone sounded too pitiful. She hoped that Tina could help her one last time.
In the end, Tina's heart softened.
Perhaps it was because Selene had always called her Mrs. Chin that Tina also regarded her as her cousin-in-law.
The chain century shopping mall located in a prosperous area was very popular, which incorporated shopping and entertainment. At this time, a lot of customers, some getting out of the taxis, came in and out of the mall in groups.
When Tina walked into the mall, she received a call from Wilson.
She just told him about it without hiding anything.
Wilson answered faintly.
Thinking that he would have a big reaction, Tina blinked her eyes in surprise. "In addition to meeting your cousin, I will also see Dylan..."
"Well, I know!" Wilson said.
Tina asked, "That's it?"
Wilson smiled and said with a low and lazy voice. "Tina, if you want me to be jealous, I can cooperate!"
Tina didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Wilson snorted coldly and said in a slightly serious tone, "With the harsh lesson she learned from last time, Selene won't dare to make any trouble. Now that the deadline I set for her is coming, she must have panicked and wanted to try the last time to get Dylan. Well, whatever she does, she must leave the country!"
Tina thought of the wedding she attended a few days ago. At that time, Dylan told her that he was going abroad.
If she told Selene, she would definitely be overjoyed.
Tina said with a smile, "Well, I will persuade her as her sister-in-law!"
"Hmm," Wilson said. Before he hung up, he added, "After that, go back early!"
The corners of Tina's mouth lifted slightly, and she couldn't help laughing.
He said he didn't care! What a joke!
Tina took the sightseeing lift to the fifth floor.
The mall had six floors. On the top floor, natural light and ventilation were shared through the central void, which also brought a wide field of vision. It could be seen that the shops above were under repair and workers were busy carrying things around.
From afar, she saw Selene leaning against the glass armrest, holding a cup of coffee in each hand.
It was obvious that she had carefully dressed up, but she still had deep dark circles under her eyes and looked a little haggard.
She had heard from Wilson that Selene had been crying and begging at home for a long time, trying to get herself a chance to see Dylan.
Selene was very excited to see her. "Mrs. Chin, you're here!"
Tina nodded and took the coffee she handed over.
Tina deliberately showed a serious look. "This is the last time I help you. Do you understand?"
"Yes, yes!" Selene nodded repeatedly.
She appeared a little pitiful as she said, "The deadline my cousin set for me is coming, so my parents are about to send me abroad. Before that, I'm going to sneak away and hide somewhere, but I still want to see Dylan first..."
Speaking of Dylan, Selene couldn't help showing a look of obsession in her eyes.
Tina asked softly, "Do you really like Dylan so much?"
"That's right!" Selene nodded.
Tina wanted to share the news with her and said, "I have something..."
However, before she could finish her sentence, Selene suddenly interrupted her. "Dylan is coming. I just drank too much coffee and my stomach feels a little uncomfortable. I'm going to the bathroom first! If he is here, please help me keep him!"
After that, she handed Tina the branded handbag on her wrist for the time being, and then hurried to the bathroom.
Tina sat on the resting chair next to her and waited.
She watched the few sightseeing lifts going up and down, and a tall and straight figure walked out of one lift.
Dylan almost strode to her, and there was a hint of tenderness on his cool face. "Tina, I'm sorry. There's a traffic jam on the road!"
Tina shook her head and smiled. "It doesn't matter.
I just arrived!"
She stood up from the lounge chair and explained apologetically, "In fact, it was Selene who would like to see you, not me."
Dylan pursed his lips.
When he came out of the elevator and saw Tina carrying two women's bags in her hands, he vaguely guessed it.
Dylan frowned. "The marriage engagement between her and me has been canceled for a long time. There is no need for us to meet again!"
Hearing the indifference in his words, Tina couldn't help sighing softly. "Selene really likes you. If you don't like her, you'd better make it clear to her in person!"
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of a beautiful figure walking out of the bathroom.
Tina stuffed Selene's bag into Dylan's hand, saying, "You two talk. I'll go first!"
After that, she turned around and left without giving him a chance to refuse.
Tina walked toward the elevator.
However, when she had just taken a few steps, she heard Dylan shouting suddenly, "Tina, be careful!"
Tina was confused.
Before she could react, she felt a strong force pushing her from behind. All the coffee in her hand was spilled out and scattered all over the floor.
But before she could see everything clearly, she had fallen to the ground with Dylan.
Behind her came the loud sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
"Something happened!"
"Oh, god, it hit someone!"
The crowd was in a mess, and all of them were screaming.
Cold sweat instantly broke out on Tina's back.
She then realized what had happened. Two workers were carrying a huge two-meter- tall decoration painting in the shop that had been repaired above. They accidentally dropped the painting, and it landed at the exact place where she was.
If Dylan hadn't found it and suddenly pushed her away, the consequence would be too ghastly to contemplate.
Selene, seeing the accident happen, sprinted over fast. All their faces turned pale with fright.
Tina quickly asked, "Dylan, how are you?"
Dylan shook his head, but he couldn't help gasping in pain. "I'm fine..."
He seemed to want to smile at her, but his facial muscles looked a little stiff.
The accident happened so fast that Tina was a little in a daze. She didn't know if Dylan was injured.
When she was about to lift him up and examine him, Selene, who had already run in front of them, suddenly seemed to be frightened and cried out in a low voice out of control, "Oh my god-"
Tina followed Selene's eyes and looked over. Dylan's right hand was dripping with blood. Every joint of his slender fingers that had moved on the piano keys for years was shaking.
Her heart suddenly sank.
