Chapter 170: Did Her Will Easily Defeated by Her Sleepiness?
Calix had no time to see how Calliope hid inside the tree hole. His sharp hearing caught the sound of the children getting captured by the seeker.
’Screw this!’
Having no choice, Calix jumped before agilely climbing the tall tree. His luck was good because the tree was densely surrounded by its leaves. He found a perfect spot to hide there.
Calix sat on one of the sturdy branches. Leaning his back against the trunk, he stretched out his long legs.
"Well... will those kids find me here?"
Even though CEO Xu didn’t want the children to cry because he defeated them, he still wondered what would it feel like to win. He hadn’t played hide-and-seek in ages.
While hiding in the tree, Calix took his sweet time looking over the backyard. The view from the high angle helped him to see everything clearly. He also spotted the vegetable patches on the other side of the backyard.
"Hurm... if Edward knows what I’m doing, I bet he’ll curse me for three generations."
Calix was inadvertently reminded of his loyal subordinate. He left Edward to face the troublesome people at the company while he was having fun playing with the children here.
"Should I take photos?"
CEO Xu couldn’t keep his mouth quiet despite being in hiding. He slipped his personal phone out of the pocket of his jacket before he started capturing photos. Before doing so, he didn’t forget to put his phone on silent mode.
