Chapter 16

Adina found herself in Riverview Pavilion, a recreational space in the suburbs.

It was mostly used by the upper-class society and government officials for relaxation. Everyone who visited it was rich or had a noble status.

A group of people was fishing by the river at that moment.

Trent Sunderland cast a glance at Duke’s bucket and said indignantly, “Say, Duke, what’s going on? Why are the fish all heading to your bait? We’re yet to catch a single fish!”

Duke continued to sit calmly by the bank.

He was dressed in casual clothes, so when the spring sun shone on him and a light breeze blew at him, he looked even more handsome than usual.

The group was lucky that there were no women around, or they would have started screeching at the sight of him.

Trent clicked his tongue. “Gosh darn it, why are you so annoyingly hot? You’re not allowed to come to my house again!”

His sister was just fifteen years old, and she was absolutely enamored with Duke. It would only get worse if she saw him like this…

Trent returned his gaze to the river and suddenly froze. “The hell?! No one warned me that there’s a mermaid in the river!” he cried out.

Eilam Walker gave him a scornful look. “Could you be quieter? Don’t scare away my fish!”

“Why are you still fishing?! Look! There’s a woman in the water! Is it a mermaid?!”

He sounded serious, so the others also looked into the water.

It was just as he said, there was a woman in the clear water!
