Chapter 167 The Water Fight
Cora and Lucas were chatting and laughing continuously while watching the movie. Byron frowned several times, trying to use his imposing aura to make them quiet down. But whether it was because the movie was too exciting, causing them to completely forget about their surroundings, or because both of them were intentionally challenging Byron, they seemed oblivious to his displeasure. They continued to giggle, watch, and chat away. So, Byron had to resort to a trump card. “Mr. Woods, it’s a bit noisy.” He kicked the chair Jason, who was dozing off behind him. After Jason woke up, he looked at Byron in a daze. Carter added, “Mr. Hansen stayed up past three o’clock last night and needs to catch up on sleep urgently.” Immediately, Jason shouted, “Quiet everyone; quiet down. This is not a meeting. Why are you all like loudspeakers?” As a result, the bus suddenly became quiet. Even Cora and Lucas, who were watching the movie together, stopped communicating. Byron glanced at Cora and saw her looking back at him. He casually put on his sunglasses. Two hours later, the bus arrived at the Rainforest Resort. “Mr. Hansen, your and Carter’s stilt houses are over here.”
Jason, as always, personally guided Byron and Carter. But Byron coldly glanced in a different direction. “What about them?” Jason followed his gaze and saw Cora walking gracefully in a dress, while Lucas followed with numerous bags. Being able to reach Jason’s position naturally required being perceptive. He witnessed Byron standing up for the woman next to Lucas at the previous Moonware Games banquet, which made Jason suspect that Byron’s unexpected presence at the team-building event might be related to that woman. And now, Byron’s direct gaze at the woman has confirmed Jason’s suspicions. “They are assigned regular stilt houses without beds. I thought you and Carter might not be accustomed to sleeping on the floor, so I arranged a luxurious suite with a bed for you.” “Since we came together, there’s no need for special treatment.”
