Chapter 59: Part Of The Plan
In Selene’s room, the sun slipped through the curtains, casting a soft yellow glow over her eyes and waking her up, despite her reluctance. Groaning, she rubbed her eyes and searched for her phone. She checked her messages but hadn’t received any from Xavier yet.
Her shoulders drooped in disappointment, feeling a pang of longing. She let out a sigh, got up from the bed and headed straight to the bathroom.
When she was all ready and dressed up, she left her room, finding some of her colleagues already starting their vacation. She noticed a few of them already swimming in the grand swimming pool.
Some ate and drank while some played games. The weather was cool and warm at the same time, not making them sweat uncontrollably no shiver in the cold either.
She noticed Kace with Liam, the both of them chatting. She went to them, "Hey, guys!" She said.
"Selene, you are here. I thought you were just going to sleep in today. It’s already afternoon," said Kace, handing her a plate of food he’d already ordered for her.
Xavier had made Kace promise to ensure Selene ate her food. She was too slim, and no matter how much she ate, she never seemed to gain even a kilogram. To sweeten the deal and guarantee Kace’s compliance, Xavier added a few million to the arrangement, ensuring Kace would fulfill his task without any complaints.
At that moment, Kace felt more like a babysitter than a friend.
’I think I need to find myself a girlfriend and get myself busy as well,’ he thought to himself. Immediately, Allison’s image appeared in his mind. A faint smile appeared on his lips.
