Winning Her Heart Back

Drowning 

Unexpectedly, it was Elena. She wore a conservative yet fashionable dark green one–piece swimsuit, a color that suited her fair complexion perfectly 

Elena had fair skin, so she effortlessly carried off the look. 

Emelie politely smiled at her. 

Elena sam over from the other side of the pool and asked, “Ms. Hoven, why aren’t you getting in the water?” 

“I didn’t bring my swimsuit, so I can only soak my legs,” Emelie replied, 

Elena smiled. “Oh, I see. I thought you were afraid of water because you had almost drowned as a child, so you wouldn’t even get into the hot spring pool. I was just about to come over to help you.” 

Her unexpected remark left Emelie momentarily stunned. 

Almost drowned? She had indeed nearly drowned once during her high school swimming class, but how did Elena know? 

Emelie pondered this for a moment before asiding about it 

Elena’s long black hair floated treely on the surface of the pool. It gave her the appearance of a mermaid emerging from the water, 

she tilted her head and said with a smile, “I also attended Catalina Hills High School. I was there that day when you nearly drowned.” 

“Oh…” Emelie was even more surprised. 

“That day when I saw you at the stone Bistro, Trecognized you,” Elena said. She noticed Emelie’s astonished expression and smiled as she continued, “When I found out that you and William were together, I had that same expression.” 

Emelie couldn’t help but feel that it was too coincidental 

She glanced at Elena again. She tried to recall, but she still couldn’t remember. 

After a brief moment of surprise, Emelie readjusted her expression and smoothly shifted to the tone one might use when meeting an old classmate. 

She exchanged pleasantries. “It’s quite a coincidence to meet a fellow alum. I rarely encounter classmates from our school days. We were likely in the same year, right? Ms. Allen, which class were you in back then? 

Elena leaned against the pool wall, her face devoid of makeup as she soaked in the hot spring. The lack of cosmetics diminished the exotic aura slightly, but she remained a beauty nonetheless, 

“I was in Class 8. Ms. Hoven, weren’t you in Class 67I was relatively unknown at the time, so it’s normal if you don’t remember me I remember you because you were quite famous back then” 

Emelie’s fame stemmed from her fervent pursuit of Wesley during their school days. As expected, Elena’s next question was curious. “Weren’t you chasing after Wesley back then? How did you end up with William.” This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

Emelie paused for a moment. Then, she explained casually, “That’s all in the past. It’s almost ten years ago now. I’ve mostly forgotten about it.” 

Elena smiled faintly. “While studying and working abroad, Thappened to run into Wesley. He hasn’t forgotten our school days. He even remembered that I was standing next to William at the time.” 

Emelie looked up at her. What was she trying to imply with that statement? 

However, Elena seemed to be just making casual conversation. “By the way, Wesley is preparing to return to Capebatt City for business development. He recently acquired a company and is planning a reserve merger for a public listing 

“It seems like a significant move. I feel like he’ll officially enter the business circle of Capebatt City before his senior years.” 

Emelie didn’t quite understand if Elena wanted to discuss famous classmates from their student days or if she had another purpose in mind. 

Hence, she simply replied, “I am currently on vacation and haven’t started working yet, so I’m not up–to–date on these matters.” 

“It’s convenient that you’re not working yet” Elenachuckled. 

“What do you mean by ‘convenient?“”Emelie asked.
