Chapter 786

| looked over and saw that she, too, was holding a plate full of cakes. It looked like she also wanted to find a quiet place to eat.

| smiled and said, "Some people say that too much sugar isn't good for women. It makes them age fast."novelbin

She was amused by my remark. She took a bite of the cake and looked like she enjoyed it. "How do you define an old woman?"Her question really stumped me.

She continued with a small smile, "My perception of the term "old" is someone who loses their meaning to live. Those who havelost hope, even if they are in their 20s, can be considered old. Some people, even though they are in their 80s, still live sopositively with such a grand outlook on life. Can you call them old?"

| smiled faintly, but | could not answer her question. "Nope!"

After chatting for a bit, she left because Hendrix was going to start presenting on the Roberts Group's annual performance andcarry out the commendation and surprise segment.

| finished my food and had nothing to do, so | roamed freely around the hotel.Hearing Hendrix's deep voice, | subconsciously walked to the outside of the hotel lobby.

The Roberts Group had a large workforce, so the place was crowded with their staff. There were also some well knownbusinessmen, as well as some high profile individuals in Jarold City.

Although it was said to be a form of gratitude and feedback, Roberts Group's newly developed artificial intelligence machinerywas given as a gift. At the same time, Rowane's contribution to the group was also announced.

We could not deny that Rowane was indeed an excellent consultant. She deserved to be valued.

After he was done, Hendrix walked to me from the stage.

Ignoring everyone's stare, he held onto my arm, saying, "How are the cakes tonight?"

"They're delicious!"

He smiled and said, "If you want cakes in the future, ask the pastry chefs to come over and make them for you."| found his suggestion amusing.

Since we were a married couple, it was inevitable that we would look intimate as we chatted.

Hendrix and | initially planned to find somewhere to sit, but all of a sudden, we heard a loud splash.

When we looked back, a group of people had already gathered around the swimming pool. Someone shouted, "Someone hasfallen into the water! Hurry up and save her!"

Some who knew how to swim jumped in the water.Since he was the chairman of the Roberts Group, Hendrix pulled me along and walked towards the crowd.He made me stand a good distance away from the swimming pool. "What's going on?"

Someone stepped forward and answered, "Mr. Roberts, it's Miss Zanes. Someone seemed to have pushed her in.”

When Hendrix looked over, Rowanehad been rescued. The pool durinwinter must be feepzie\ Gold ORowads lai'on the ground, shiveringvigorously from the harsh cold andlooking to be in an overall terriblestate. Please read the originalcontent at NovelDrama.Org.

Some gentlemen took off their clothes and draped them over her legs. Then, someone gave her first aid.It took her quite a while to wake up. When she did, her movements were frail and weak.

Rowane had probably been scared out of her wits. After staring at Hendrix for a while, she threw herself into Hendrix's arm andburst into tears.

In that instant, some people gasped while some sneaked glances at me, whispering gossips to one another."From her usual demeanor, | thought she was a strong iron lady. But now, it looks like she's also a soft and timid woman."

"That's not true at all. Right now, she looks so weak that even the wind could carry her away. Looks like Mr. Roberts’ heart will besent into a whirlwind of chaos now."
