The Faceless Billionaire Celebrity Wife-Chapter 107: High School Invaders.
Indeed they had been invaded. Not by terrorist groups or anything of the likes, but by high school students who were being super noisy right now. They ran from one end of the camp to another, calling out to their friends while shouting at the top of their voices.
"Hendrick, come help me with my bag!"
"I wasn’t the one who asked you to pack like you were taking a trip of no return!"
"Shirley, did you find my boots?! I stuck them in the extra space in your backpack!"
"RICHARD! CELINE HAS BEEN LOOKING FOR YOU SINCE, AND YOU ARE HERE FLIRTING WITH ELLE?!"
Shikera had to block her ears at that speaker like voice, making a mental note to ask her team leader to come for loud voice training from this high school teenager. She hurried back inside her tent and removed her phone to call her brother.
Finding his number, she sighed at the call history. At most, she called her brother only five times in a year that most times she always forgot what she saved his number as. This was as a result of him always being on one mission or another, which usually restrained him from taking any kind of calls or using his phone in whole. As they were now in the same place for the next two weeks, she hoped she would be able to call him for as many times as she wanted.
"Noah," she called immediately the phone connected.
"Kera, did anything happen?"
"No, it’s just too noisy outside so I wondered where you might be."
"Ah!" Noah chucked, before adding,"If I was outside now, their screams will be more than that. Don’t worry though, my co-supervisor will be with them soon and everywhere will be as silent as a graveyard."
"Alright then, am I allowed..." she hesitated, unsure of how official this mission that her brother was undertaking was. She wanted to know if she was allowed to visit him as much as she liked.
Noah already guessed the remaining part of Shikera’s sentence so he replied,"Of course, I said it’s more like an high school vacation trip so I’m pretty much allowed to do whatever I want. Don’t you dare complain that you have a clingy brother later on!"
"I won’t; I only want to talk to you. Not about my life though, but yours," Shikera countered. She looked up when she noticed a silhouette at the entrance of her tent, which approached to turn to her tent mate, Venus Alvrier.
"I’ll come pick you up in a few minutes then. We can talk over dinner," Noah’s said, hanging up after they bade themselves goodbye.
"Captain Anderson is your brother?"
Shikera was surprised that the girl was talking to her, since she had only emitted a cold and unfriendly aura since she saw her. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
"Yeah...how did you know that?" She asked, staring up at the girl with a super small face. From the general information she had on the Alvrier’s, she knew this was their only daughter and that the girl was nineteen so why did she look this young?
"I guessed," the girl answered, tilting her head in confusion.
Why she was confused, Shikera couldn’t tell but she could guess that the girl had probably heard some things about her which she wanted to confirm.
"You want to ask something?" she asked, only to see the girl shake her head.
"I have my answer already. Thanks for asking and uhm...dinner would be ready in ten minutes so you can come out by then. By the way, I already informed the rest of your team too."
Without waiting for Shikera’s answer, the girl walked back out of the tent.
Shikera who had been left behind could only stare at her retreating back in shock, wondering why the girl seemed so rigid. If the girl wasn’t wearing a school uniform, she would have mistook her to be part of the soldiers in the Special Military Forces just like her brother. Making a mental note to ask her brother about the girl later, she picked up her phone and dialled Ethan’s number.
Since he was not ready to call her, she would, just to know the dynamics of things between them. She had left the very day after their night together, so she was not sure if he would have continued to treat her the way he used to to or...if he would still like her. The fact that he took care of her and helped pack her luggage could only be because he felt it was his fault she couldn’t stand or move around by herself.
The phone rang several times without the call connecting, and Shikera stopped after three tries. She got her answer already.
Standing to her feet, she headed out of her tent in the direction of her teammates tent. Easing herself through the noisy high school students, she turned a corner to find...
What the fuck?! Did this children have no fear?
Right in front of her and pressed against a tent, two students in uniform were kissing each other.
Shikera turned around immediately, not wanting to be tagged as a jealous old lady, when she saw her Venus Alvrier approaching.
Thinking that the girl would avoid passing the place just like she did, Shikera informed her, "Uhm, your friends or...how do I put this?"
"They are making out? I knew that,"Venus replied, with a blank expression.
Shikera watched the girl disappear around that same corner before appearing the very next minute, with the couple from earlier trailing behind her. Venus came to stand before her and after the girl and boy had passed, she turned to Shikera.
"You can pass now. When next you see any of them like that, you can actually just separate them. This trip is not for play, or to give them chance to make out."
And just like before, the girl walked away from Shikera’s front. Not surprised anymore, Shikera simply shrugged and continued on her way to Vicky’s tent.
Spotting the tent from the distance, she was surprised to see that there was a group in front of it who were in deep argument and shouting at the top of their voices. Sighing, Shikera was starting to regret coming on this trip as she was feeling a headache coming with this noise in all parts of the campground.
Walking towards the group of students, she yelled, "What’s the problem over there?!"
The students, numbered eleven, fell silent in their argument and turned in Shikera’s direction. One of them, the cute girl who seemed to be in the centre of the argument, hurried over to Shikera with pouty lips.
"Thank God you are here, Miss. Can you imagine Rita telling me Ethan DeLoach is married?"
