My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 275

"No, not really," I shrugged, and I was ready to end the conversation. I took a step away from the pavilion, but Irvin stopped me.

"Since you didn't think remarrying is a problem, are you already preparing for a second marriage? If so, what do you think of me? I don't mind if you're divorced, or I would have a step-child."

My face fell at his words. Irvin was being frivolous. It was ridiculous of him to say such things.

I glared at him, "I appreciate your fondness, Mr. Granger. But, no, thanks!"

At this point, Irvin's behavior couldn't be summed up with only being unpredictable. He was erratic.

Passing him, I left the pavilion and lined the fountain to go back to the house.

I heard footsteps behind me, and they were getting closer. I scowled, and I couldn't help but feel that Irvin was stepping over the line.

I grew irritated at him by the second. When I noticed that he draped his arm on my shoulder, I turned around and didn't hesitate to push him away.

Caught by surprise, Irvin fell into the fountain.

"Plop!" It was already dark, and the surrounding was only dimly lit by the street lights. All I could see was the ripples in the fountain.

I took a closer look at the fountain, but I didn't see him. Thinking that he might have drowned, I panicked and began to shout, "Help! Someone's drowning! Help!"

Even upon calling Irvin's name by the fountain, there was no response at all.

The fountain shouldn't be too deep. But judging by the situation, he might have had leg cramps and drowned. I was panic-stricken, and tears fell down without control, "Help! Someone's drowning! Help..."

Without any notice, Irvin emerged from the water. He wiped his face with his hand, looking at me, and he said, "Stop crying. I'm fine!"

I was stupefied when I saw him climbing up to the bank of the fountain. He was drenched.

I looked at his calm face, finally realizing that he was messing with me earlier.

In an instant, I burst with anger, and I yelled at him, "Do you think it's funny?"
