Chapter 438: Ind Vacation


    “So, Arabe, I think we need to have a vacation before you indulge in this business more seriously,


    what do you think guys?” Rosy was the cunning socialite in the group.


    A very sophisticated and smart woman which was why men would probably stay away from her


    because of her high standard and that is why she still remained single nowadays.


    Arabe just smiled at her sweetly.


    She had not been on a vacation for a long time maybe Rosy was right but still she was hesitant about


    it.


    Her mind was still quite messy.


    How could she forget about her heartaches?


    How could she easily forget about Bill Sky?


    And the dream she thought they would achieve together.


    When she waited for him in the penthouse, she felt she was very close to achieving her dream.


    She put all her trust in Bill that he would make her dreame true.


    Her dream is to be with him and her son Adam and they would live together happily.


    But everything shattered again.


    Her trust and her heart were broken again.


    She smiled at her friends but deep inside her, she was still in pain and this was all because of Bill Sky


    again.


    Again and again...


    She felt so tired... tired of him.


    “Hmmm…e on! I have a good friend who has a new beach resort here. I wanna go and check out


    before I fly back to my city. Who wanted to join?” Rosy asked excitedly.


    For the first time, Rosy''s eyes sparkled along with her words which brought curiosity to everyone who


    knew her.


    “A good friend?” Eric quickly retorted as he frowned deeply upon hearing Rosy.


    He was her best friend for almost a decade now but howe he didn’t know about this friend of


    Rosy?


    Eric was like a big brother to her.


    A strict brother indeed.


    Of course, of what happened to Rosy’s family, Eric was there to support and protect Rosy from any


    heartbreaks again in the future.


    This is the only thing he could give to reciprocate the kindness of her family to him ever since.


    Even though Rosy was a smart and outgoing person, deep in her, Eric knew she was still hurting


    because of the tragic thing that happened to her family because of Hanna.


    Rosy looked at Eric smiling like she was teasing her brother.


    “Oh,e on! Eric, don’t be too overprotective. Do you want me to die a virgin?” Rosy scolded and


    Hearing Rosy’sint, everyoneughed.


    “Then I am in.” Arabe suddenly sounded.


    Of course, she was going to support her friend, Rosy.


    She flew to her city just to attend her school opening and Rosy was very good to her.


    She was like a sister to her even though they started rough but after that, they became very close.


    Aside from that, Arabe really felt the need to unwind.


    She wanted to get out of the city for a while and leave all her worries behind.


    Not just that but also to leave all her heartaches behind.


    “Then, I am in too.” Suddenly Damien followed.


    Lira looked at Damien immediately with a questioning expression.


    Arabe felt ufortable but she quickly got rid of the thought.


    Damien was also her friend and Rosy was inviting all of them.


    “Then I go too.” Trying hide to hide the awkwardness, Lira sounded smiling at them.


    “Yes! So, three down, what about you Mr. Eric Grant? Don’t tell me you are busy because I already


    cleared all your schedules Mr. Workaholic!” Rosy was teasing Eric.


    She knew that Eric deliberately stayed in his office to work night and day.


    Rosy had no idea why he became so addicted to his work like he was married to his work nowadays.


    They didn''t even have the time to hang out just like they used to do before.


    Eric always rejected her invitations.


    Before, she could just ask him what was bothering himtely but now, Eric seemed to turn to be so


    sensitive.


    Rosy felt Eric had something up on his sleeve but he didn’t want to share it with her.


    She wanted to know about Eric’s troubles in lifetely but she was not given a chance by him.


    She got that Eric didn’t want to tell her so she became so curious about it.


    The more he was hiding about it the more she got so curious to know.


    “So, Mr. Workaholic, what’s your answer? Come on, we are waiting. Arabe Jones, can you even help


    me here to convince this Mr. Eric Grant to join us?” Rosy was such a teaser.


    She grabbed Arabe to her side and wanted to get her side for Eric.


    “Brother,e on! Let’s support our friend here. Who knows, that good friend of hers would be her…”


    Arabe did her best to convince Eric.


    “Okay… you don’t need to say that. I am not supporting her anyway.” Eric sounded strict like he was


    forced to go with them just to satisfy and watch his two girlfriends.


    He was just going to make sure that no one can harm there.


    Eric knew his role again in this so-called vacation, a big brother for the two.


    Thinking about this, Eric just smirked at the two girls who were very excited after hearing his answer.


    “Okay! Chop-Chop! We are going now.” Rosy was so excited to announce the group.


    “What???” They answered stunned at the same time.


    Rosy just smiled at them naughtily.


    She nodded with eyes narrowed.


    Her expression was cute but showed a strict demeanor that no one could resist her decision which


    made them nod at her at the same time.


    Right after they agreed, the loud sound of two helicopters arriving resounded throughout the area.


    It seemed Rosy had got everything ready before she asked them.


    “Wait… what about our stuff?” Lira had to shout as the noise from rustling grasses and leaves mixed


    with the loud sound of helicopters'' spinning des and tail rotors.


    Rosy just smiled at Lira, “Leave it to me, darling.” Then she winked at her.


    Lira stood in disbelief.


    She knew a little of Rosy and Eric but from their fashion and looks, one could easily tell that they were


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    from a very rich family.


    The way they talk and their gestures were too affluent.


    Even though Rosy was so direct but she still carried that smart-looking and sexy sophisticated woman.


    “So? What are we waiting for? Our rides are here!” Rosy excitedly sounded raising her two arms in the


    air.


    “Wait, where are we going? And how many days are we…” Arabe couldn’t help to ask but was


    quickly cut off by Rosy.


    “Oh, dear! Enough with questions and let’s enjoy, okay? Let’s leave the things that are unnecessary,


    okay? And let us just enjoy 3 days of vacation.” Rosy quickly grabbed Arabe to head to the chopper.


    “Wait! What???” When Rosy thought everything was all good, Eric sounded like he was opposed to the


    range of time that they would be in vacation mode.


    Rosy halted while shaking her head as she heaved a heavy sigh.


    She could not believe that there were people that didn’t want a grand vacation.


    Eric’s expression was strongly protesting.


    Rosy squeezed Arabe’s hand and signaled to help her.


    She couldn’t convince Eric alone.


    Arabe heaved a sigh and then went to grab Eric who was still staying rooted on his spot and it


    seemed that he didn’t have a n to follow them after hearing that they would go on a vacation for 3


    long days.


    His expression was not interested at all.


    Arabe smirked and without any dyed, she grabbed Eric’s arm.


    “Come on brother, you need this! Trust me on this. Will you?” Arabe was begging him as she smirked


    and winked at Eric cutely like an adorable puppy who tried her best not to be rejected.


    Eric heaved a sigh like he had no other choice but to agree with Arabe.


    He didn’t say anything but he nodded.


    With that, Arabepletely dragged him all throughout until they reached the chopper.


    Lira followed and Damien whose sharp gaze was on Arabe’s hand holding Eric’s arm.


    In just a matter of one and a half hours, they arrived at an exclusive huge beach resort far away from


    the city.


    The girls had decided to stay in one room and the boys had their own rooms.


    Everything was prepared for their arrival.


    Their clothes and food were all settled.


    There were 10 servants who weed them.


    “So, where is this… good friend of yours, huh?” Eric was still not in the mood to have a vacation.


    It seemed he was forced to rest himself but he couldn’t.


    He wanted to see Rosy''s friend quickly and then fly back to the city.


    Eric''s expression was impatient.


    “Oh,e on Eric, he would be here soon. Can we just enjoy the good ambiance? It’s my first time to


    be here. I’m very happy and excited to spend my vacation with you guys.” Rosy seldom flies to Capital


    Z and not to mention, she didn’t have the chance to experience roaming around their country.


    The resort was located on a secluded mid-size ind and had a magnificent view.


    The ind had a smallmunity.


    There’s a small church, school, and some small stores enough to supply the necessities of the families


    living on the ind.


    Since it was very far from the city, people''s jobs there were mostly fishermen, people who worked in the


    resorts as servants, and resort owners.


    The air was so refreshingpared to the air in the city.


    Not so much pollution, trash, and dirt.


    The ind was clean and the people were all kind and polite.


    For the rich people who were used to having mour, it was quite an experience for them.


    Arabe felt the ce was a breather for her.


    The pristine blue-greenish water and the whitest sand she had ever seen were there.


    The air blending the breeze and nature’s fragrance was so refreshing.


    “Good afternoon,” Suddenly, someone snapped their attention. “Please allow me to introduce myself.”


    An old man strode in and formally approached them while they were sitting on the balcony of the main


    vi waiting for their meal to be served. “I am Mr. Harry your head servant. Please do not hesitate to


    call me if you needed anything and the rest of us would be very grateful to serve.” The old man was too


    polite as he professionally sounded.


    “Ahhh… thank you, Mr. Harry.” Rosy and Arabe responded politely bowing their heads.


    “By the way, I also wanted to introduce all of the servants that could help with anything while you are


    here in our resort,” Mr. Harry sounded while gesturing his hand to the servants who were already lined


    up in front of them.


    “Please go on, Mr. Harry,” Rosy sounded with a warm smile.


    It seemed it was the people’s tradition there to introduce all the people in the resort.


    Mr. Harry bowed respectfully before he continued. “Mr. Calvin, our chef. “Mr. Harry gestured his hand to


    the man beside him and then the man politely bowed to be recognized.


    “Next is, Ms. Dally,” Mr. Harry continued then the oldest woman of the group slightly bowed at them.


    “Next is Ms. Emma… Ms. Eva… Ms. Beth…. Ms. Marissa… Ms. Olivia… Ms. Sophie… Mr. Daniel…


    and….” Mr. Harry suddenly frowned deeply.


    He seemed to introduce one more but the person was missing.


    He looked at the girls meaningfully and they answered through their eyes.


    Realizing that they were still in front of their guests, Mr. Harry smiled.


    “And that’s all, please enjoy your stay. We will serve the food now.” Mr. Harry slightly bowed followed by


    the other servants then they left quickly.


    Arabe, Rosy, and Lira were satisfied with the warm wee of the people in the resort while Eric


    was busy working on his phone.


    It seemed his body was there with them but his spirit was somewhere out there.


    Damien was just observing everything keenly.


    Obviously, the main reason for him to go was because of Arabe.


    He would not miss this chance to be with her again.


    In the kitchen, everyone was busy preparing for guests’ food.


    Some were already served and some were still in the process of making the food presentations.


    Some servants were doing the cocktails and others were cleaning already.


    “Beth, where is Helen?” Mr. Harry quickly asked upon entering the kitchen.


    “Sir, I don’t know. She hasn’t arrived yet.” Beth answered wearing a nk expression.


    “But did she know that we have guests today?” Mr. Harry asked strictly.


    “Yes sir, Emma told her,” Beth replied.


    “Hmmm…” Mr. Harry hummed like he was trying to think of the reason and trying to understand why


    Helen waste again.


    Then after a while, the door behind opened and a girl came rushing inside panting.


    “Sorry… I’m here! I’m here now!” The girl sounded apologetic while holding her small baby bump on


    her belly.


    “You! I told you to avoid rushing. It will harm your baby, Helen.” Ms. Dally was too worried as she could


    not help but butt in.


    Helen heaved a heavy sigh before she bowed slightly to Mr. Harry to forgive her.


    Mr. Harry smirked like he had no other choice but to retain and not fire her. Mr. Harry is indeed a


    considerate old man.


    He was the trusted servant of the owner of the resort and it was in his hand to fire and hire servants.


    “Okay, quick! tidy up yourself and we have a lot of things to do! We have visitors from capital Z so we


    have to give them…” Mr. Harry sounded in a hurry but he was cut off.


    “Wait. What?!” Upon hearing the name of the city where their guests came from, the girl named Helen


    instantly jolted and her expression got panicked.
