Chapter 167 You Wouldn’t Just Watch Someone Die, Right?
Marion felt that Alice was definitely doing it on purpose! She was intentionally getting close to Marion to
approach Lucas!
Tsk tsk tsk!
She had just thought that Alice was not up to the task, but who would have thought she could hide her
intentions so well!
Afraid that she might unintentionally sell Lucas out, Marion quickly got up to leave. But just as she took
a few steps, Alice called out to her, “Miss Marion!”
Marion was growing impatient with the situation. She turned around and looked at Alice.
“Lucas and I are already married, Miss Alice. As a wealthy young lady, you have plenty of admirers.
There’s no need to sniff after Lucas.”

Alice stood up but did not walk towards Marion. Instead, she headed to the swimming pool behind her.
Marion found it amusing. “Do you think such clumsy tactics will work?”
Come on, there was a three- to four-meter gap between them. Even if Alice fell into the water, there
was no way the splash would reach Marion.
However, as if she had not heard Marion, Alice continued, “Can you swim, Miss Marion?”
She did not seem to expect Marion to answer as she paused for a moment before continuing, “I can’t
swim. There’s no one else here. If I were to fall in, you wouldn’t just stand by and watch me die, right?
‘Alice could lead a group of scam artists!’ Marion thought savagely.
Before Marion could react, she heard a splash as Alice jumped into the swimming pool.
Damn!
Marion looked around and realized there was no one around.
In the pool, the splashes created by Alice’s struggles were getting smaller and smaller. Marion felt that
she had fallen into a trap. Alice was such a rogue! And unfortunately, Marion had been snared!
Marion could not bear to watch a life disappear right in front of her.
She quickly ran over to the pool, took off her high heels, swiftly removed the necklace from around her
neck, and tucked it under her shoes. Then, without hesitation, she jumped into the pool..
Marion was a good swimmer, and the pool was not deep-just over a meter and a half. After jumping in,
she quickly regained her footing and used all her strength to pull Alice out.
As soon as Marion pulled her up, Alice immediately scrambled onto her as if clinging to the last straw
of life.
Marion knew that was the greatest danger for someone rescuing a drowning person.
Although she had good swimming skills, her stamina was not that great. With Alice hanging onto her,

Luckily, Marion was close to the edge. She quickly regained her balance.
“Don’t cling to me! The pool is not that deep! With your height, you should be able to stand up
comfortably. What are you afraid of?”
Perhaps someone had heard her angry shout.
Alice loosened her grip. Marion quickly raised one hand to grab the edge, bit her teeth, and pulled Alice
to the edge of the pool.
“Hold onto it yourself!” Marion said as she climbed out.
Just as Marion turned around to pull Alice out, a sharp scream shattered the tranquility of the garden.
