Chapter 228 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 colmly put on his sunglasses.
Two hours later, the bus arrived at 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 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.”
Byron’s words once again confirmed Jason’s thoughts, so he didn’t bother with formalities and said, “Alright, I’ll arrange
another room for you and Carter.”
Soon, the rooms were arranged, right next to Cora and Lucas’
room.
Even Carter couldn’t help but admire Jason’s sharp eyes after
seeing this arrangement.
After a short rest, they were called out for team-building
activities.
It was unclear whether it was intentionally arranged by Jason,
but several activities involving family members and employees were suddenly canceled.
As a result, only the company’s staff participated in the
team-building activities.

The family members were arranged to participate in the water fight activity at Rainforest Resort, and even Byron and
Carter were included in the arrangement,
When Lucas saw this arrangement, he realized that someone had manipulated things behind the scenes.
“Cora, if you don’t want to participate, you can stay in the
room and wait for me to come back,”
But upon second thought, this was his first time taking Cora out, and he shouldn’t leave her alone in the room.
“How about I don’t join the team-building activity and stay
here with you?”
Seeing Lucas hesitating, Cora pushed him out of the room and said, “It’s alright. I’ll join the water fight. I won’t be bored. Hurry up and go team-building with your colleagues.”
The members of the Programming Department were eagerly waiting outside the door for Lucas to join them in the team-building activity, so Cora couldn’t let him stay by her
side.
After her repeated persuasion, Lucas finally compromised. “Alright then. I’ll be back soon, and when I return, I’ll take you to try the specialty skewers here.”

Once Lucas left, Cora was called to join the water fight.
5/5
Water fights were typically more enjoyable when played with familiar people.
Cora wasn’t very familiar with these family members, so nob*dy played with her for the time being.
She walked alone on the periphery, feeling like there was a
barrier separating her from those frolicking in the center.
She thought this state would continue until the end of the
activity. But suddenly, she was splashed with a ladle of water.
It didn’t hit her face, but it soaked the upper part of her b*dy.
Annoyed, Cora raised her head and saw Byron holding a water ladle, looking as if it had nothing to do with him.
