Chapter 199
Hearing his flighty remarks, my face darkened in an instant. “I’m thankful that you don’t mind being my baby’s stepfather, but you’re too good for a woman like me, as you’ve said, who doesn’t treat their marriage seriously,” I riposted, glaring at him.
I shouldn’t waste my time on him. This man is way too unpredictable.
With that, I walked past him out of the pavilion and then briskly walked along the pond, heading toward the house.
I was annoyed when I heard his footsteps getting closer.
My anger was aroused the moment he laid his hand on my shoulder. Without a second thought, I turned around and shoved him away.
As a result of being caught off guard by the sudden force, he fell into the pond with a thud.

Looking at his composed manner, I realized he had frightened me on purpose. My chest heaved heavily while I was quivering in anger.
