Chapter 1011
Shock speared through me. When had Rowane and Nerissa be close?
But then it''s been awhile since I left Jarold City. It was only these things happened. I shouldn''t dwell
on it.
Hugo lowered his voice and whispered. "I heard that Mr. Roberts is married, but I never knew who
his wife was. Could it be Miss Zanes?"
I lowered my head to eat and forced out, "I''m not sure!"
Hugo continued talking, not noticing my difort. "Miss Zanes is cold and heartless to others, but
she''s rather taken with Mr. Roberts. She''s also quite nice to the elderly. She''s quite a good match
for him."
I didn''t reply and ate listlessly.
Zir must have also misunderstood their rtionship, as he was repeatedly giving them advice on
how to get along with each other.
Hendrix pursed his lips and looked at me with cold eyes. When he saw that I was just looking at him
indifferently, he returned the favor. As if I was allowing Zir to continue misunderstanding.
Rowane was extremely happy about the situation. She followed Zir cue and proudly agreed with
them.
I got up and went to the washroom. On my out, I couldn''t help I got distracted by the open- aired
swimming pool.
Afternoons in August certainly attracted plenty of people. There were children floating on the
surface of the shallow water area with swimming rings around their arms.
There were not many people in the deeper waters. Only a few adults males. It seemed that they
were free during this afternoon, so they went swimming to rx.
I sat down in the shade. There was no need to return too soon. Zir was probably too preupied
with Rowane and Hendrix to notice me missing from the table. I figured it would be better to take a
break here.
There was a couple sitting by the pool, both of them in their swimsuits. They seemed quite shy,
likely in the honeymoon stage, and this is probably their first time seeing each other without clothing
on.
They were wrapped in bath towels and were sat by the pool. The girl was saying to the boy, "I can''t
swim!"
The boy grinned in reply. "I can. I will teach you!"
Then he threw his bath towel aside and went into the water first. The swimming pool was one and a
half meters deep and the boy was tall. So the pool water merely reached his chest.
The girl was not yet brave enough. She clutched her towel tighter and said shyly, "Why don''t you go
ahead for a swim first? I''ll call you when I feel braver."
The boy nodded. In front of his beloved girlfriend, he showed off his skill. Swimming severalps.

I smiled at the scene. Rtionships among the youngsters really stood out as they innocently met
each other, giving each other their sincere affections.
The purest form of love.
"What happened? Was the scene inside too much for you to handle, so you had to hide here in
misery?" Rowane Zanes spoke from behind me. And of course, with the appearance of such
beauty, those at the pool turned in attention.
Looking away from her, I chuckled, "Why would I hide here in misery?"
She sat down beside me, crossing her long legs, attracting even more attention. "Master Attwood
thinks that Hendrix and I are married. Don''t you feel a little sad?"
I raised my eyebrows at her and smirked. "You''re wrong. Whatever the rtionship between me
and Hendrix, it''s our business. In fact, I don''t care about who is in a rtionship with him. So, you
don''t have to tell me so many useless things."
