Forced Marriage: CEO’s Sweet Little Wife - Chapter 116

The campus field trip was held in a luxury villa by the beach with a beautiful view. All the students looked excited and cheerful, they played on the waves, made barbeques, joked with each other, and laughed merrily.

but there was one student who looks commonplace, his face looks wrinkled with both palms tucked away in his pants pockets, since earlier he just leaned against the glass wall on the villa terrace, not joining the group of his friends who were singing cheerfully while strumming the guitar not far away from his position.

nor He did join the long table filled with savory and delicious food that was served at the large dining table in the yard not far from his viewing position, but he was not staring at the appetizing menu of foods, he was stupefied his gaze blank.

Azka and Reo are holding a glass of beer in their hands with other friends, they are around the dining table.

“What’s wrong with that friend of yours, since he arrived here he looks uninspired, his face was gloomy and lifeless, is he sick?” Reo asked Azka who had just pulled out a seat to sit down.

“I don’t know, go cheer him on,” Azka said telling Reo.

Not waiting long, Reo followed Azka’s words, he brought a full glass of beer to Hazel who was still leaning against the wall.

Hazel didn’t notice Reo’s arrival, he was still astonished and busy with his thoughts, his face looked so uninterested.

“Hey, what are you doing several times? Why are you busy stod here, is the work at the office too hard for you, or…” Reo’s voice rose slightly so that it could be heard on the dining table.

Azka who can hear Reo’s words immediately turned his head, he became worried with Hazel’s face that looked disturbed by Reo’s words, he took the initiative to join in to cheer up Hazel, it seemed his friend’s mood was not good.

“Don’t bother me, just get on with your business, I’m not interested in joining and I’m a little tired, I want to rest,” Hazel said coldly.

His words made Reo’s face go blank– alternately.

With fast steps, Hazel left Reo’s blank face, Azka who was just about to join could only make a confused face, he looked at Hazel who didn’t look at him at all.

“What’s with him, why does he look so cold and desperate?” He asked Reo who immediately gulped down the one beer in his hand, he gave the empty glass to Azka.

“I have no clue, maybe something bad happened to him and he can’t tell us,” Reo said trying to understand Hazel’s bad mood.

Azka has no words.

Reo chuckled “I think I know the cause.” he raised his index finger which was still gripping the beer glass in his hand.

He pointed at several bikini-clad girls who could be seen from a distance.

Azka frowned, he didn’t understand Reo’s instructions. “Is that the cause because of the bikini-clad girl?” Azka asked with a stupid face.

Hearing Azka’s words made Reo instantly annoyed.”How can you enter a famous university with a mediocre IQ like this, what’s the relationship between the bikini-clad girl and Hazel, I’m telling you that among the bikini-clad girls over there, there are two geeky girls we ate with us a while ago.” Reo explained with an annoyed face.

“Ah, two of Vira’s friends,” Azka said. “But what do those two girls have to do with Hazel? Are they both bothering Hazel?”

Reo narrowed his eyes. “Is your brain can’t work because you drink too much alcohol? what I mean is, there are those two girls there, but no Vira, that means–”

“That means, Vira is not participating in this retreat? Geez, I didn’t even notice that the girl wasn’t in our midst, I’m too busy with this anyway!” Azka raised the empty glass in his hand.

“Now you understand why Hazel is in such a bad mood right?” Reo asked.

“Of course. Then, what should we do?” Asked Azka.

“Let’s find out why the girl didn’t participate in this retreat, isn’t this event mandatory for all first-year students?” Reo looked confused. “If I knew I could skip this event, I would prefer a vacation to Europe with my family.” He Hissed annoyed.

Azka asked Reo to stop complaining, he elbowed Reo’s waist for seeing the group of girls in bikinis getting closer.

Azka and Reo immediately approached the bikini group, they called Ashley and Sunny, two girls who had dinner with them some time ago.

Hearing their names being called, Ashley and Sunny immediately stopped their steps and invited the other friends to enter the villa first.

Both of them looked suspicious with Azka and Reo who suddenly called them.

Azka and Reo greeted the two before asking about the main topic.

Sunny crossed her arms over her chest, she seemed to be able to smell the purpose of these two parlent men greeting them.

“Wow, the bikini looks beautiful, you look– good!” Azka complimented awkwardly seeing Ashley and Sunny’s curves which could be said to be quite tempting.

“Stop making small talk, what’s wrong?” Said Sunny was a little curt. They weren’t that close and made them exchange small compliments.

“If you want to ask about Vira, you are in the wrong person, we should both be asking you, didn’t you get close to her first, especially Hazel, where is he? Shouldn’t he tell us, where is Vira, she is not present at this retreat, she let us down?” Sunny said with a disappointed face.

Reo and Azka couldn’t speak anymore hearing Sunny’s words, it seemed that their efforts would be in vain, they were not yet asking but Sunny had given the answer that they wanted.

“Okay then, would you like a glass of beer?” Azka asked to try to lighten the mood.

“Maybe later, we should change first, soaking in saltwater too long makes our bodies sticky,” Ashley answered, she pulled Sunny’s arm away from Reo and Azka.

“Okay, okay. come down and join our table after changing. We can have dinner together tonight!” Azka shouted behind Ashley and Sunny as he raised the empty glass in his hand.

Reo raised his eyebrows, he turned to Azka.

“What’s with your face, Are you disappointed that the two girls looked unfriendly?” Azka asked.

Reo shook his head, he wasn’t interested in Sunny or Ashley even though he had seen firsthand saw how round and supple the twin assets the two girls had, not to mention their huge and seductive ass.

But an innocent, natural, and calm girl was Reo’s girl criteria, he likes beautiful women who are not mindful of their beauty. (Read, my coldest CEO was my first love for Reo’s story).

“Isn’t this weird? She can skip the retreat and no one knows the reason. I feel there is something strange about Vira, I suspected from the start, she must not be an ordinary woman.” Reo began to think.

“What do you mean? Do you think that she is the princess of the kingdom or the daughter of the president?” Asked Azka.

“Tsk, let’s go after Hazel, he needs some friends tonight.” Reo pulled Azka’s hand, left the villa yard, and entered the room, and headed to Hazel’s room.

“Hazel, let’s talk!”

Hazel was about to escape the crowds and noise from his two best friends, but in the room, he met a senior that he didn’t want to see again in his life.

Hazel still keeps his hands in his pants pockets, his face looks cold, the look in his eyes was the same, he doesn’t pay attention to the words of the senior woman he met some time ago when Vira was harassed by Deo and his half brother came to be a hero.

“Hazel!” She called out once more while touching Hazel’s elbow.

Hazel stopped for a moment, he felt a touch on his arm and felt uncomfortable, the look in his eyes was clear that he was uncomfortable seeing this woman.

The woman could understand Hazel’s body language and expression, she let go of her hand.

“I’m sorry. I just want to talk to you, I want us to straighten things out. Me and Deo–”

“Aish!” Hazel made an uncomfortable sound, he grimaced, not liking this woman’s voice.

“Hazel.” The senior woman approached Hazel until they were facing each other, but Hazel turned his face away, he didn’t want to look at the face of this senior woman.

“I want to clear up all the misunderstandings that ever existed, I–”

Hugging!

The woman hugged Hazel’s body, so Hazel’s hands were raised in the air, he didn’t want to return the hug, he felt uncomfortable and painful.

“Take your hands-off.” Hissed him.

“But I still love you, I want you to listen to my explanation first.” The woman whispered.

Hazel clicked his tongue “I don’t like you anymore, I love another woman!” Hazel replied curtly.

The hug loosened.

“Was she the woman that night?” asked the senior woman with sharpening eyes.

Hazel didn’t answer.

—

behind the wall, Azka and Reo accidentally overheard, when they were about to catch up with Hazel, both of them accidentally saw the senior woman and Hazel having a conversation, and then both of them took the initiative to hide, but both of their decisions seemed wrong, now they look confused and feel guilty for overhearing Hazel’s seemingly complicated problems. “How about this?” Asked Azka.

Reo put his finger to his lips. “Shh. If Hazel finds out, you and I will die!” Whispered Reo.
