Chapter 9 Cheering For His Son

Meanwhile, in the water...

"Raven, father asked for you," Jordan called out as he went into the water and joined them.

Raven wrinkled her brows, but soon followed anyway.

A few moments later, Chad was talking to Jordan when they saw Raven jump back into the water, now wearing a rash guard instead of her former swimwear. Senior Choi has also joined them now.

"Hey, why did you change?" Sheena asked.

"Father said this one was better for skin protection," Raven shrugged as she replied.

Jordan on the other hand flashed a wide smile as he commented, "That one's definitely better. It suits you well."

Raven gave him a half-smile. She couldn't tell if it was a compliment, or if he was trying to say that her body didn't look good with her earlier swimwear.

"There's also one for each of you, girls," Senior Choi added, making sure to keep his eyes on Jordan as he spoke. "There's a lot of them to choose from."

'Look at how happy and satisfied that brat is... He didn't even bother to thank his Old Man for the favor he had asked of him.'

The next day, all of them got ready for a day out in the sea, as well as for some quick island hopping. Chad's family had a yacht arranged for them that they could use, and the girls shrieked and jumped in excitement as they boarded the luxury boat. Looking around, they saw how meticulously everything was arranged by their friend for them to enjoy the day. They'd all be going out to the sea, going fishing for a while, then visiting an island quite a bit away from the beach house. The yacht was huge. It had a few rooms, as well as a well-equipped kitchen along with all the arrangements needed for the girls to enjoy their fun-filled day out. They embarked as soon as everyone had boarded. And as they reached the deep sea, they whipped out their rods and started fishing with the help of the onboard staff.

As soon as they caught enough fish, they then headed for other destinations. They first arrived at Vigu Island. It was a small island that attracted a lot of tourists all year round. The clear blue waters around the island were teeming with exquisite marine life. It was home to dugongs, turtles, manta rays, and a few more species of fishes and coral reefs. The group enjoyed the beautiful scenery. And soon, everyone prepared for a dive in the beautiful waters.

Chad was assisting Raven with her diving gears when Jordan interrupted him. "Dude, can you help me out with this one?" he asked as he pointed at his diving fins.

Chad simply smiled as he came to help him immediately. What he didn't notice, however, was how the man's lips curved slightly upward, forming an evil smirk as he let the younger man do his work.

Senior Choi, who also had joined the youngsters for some fun time with island hopping, watched the whole scene unfold. For once, he could no longer look at his shameless son with how stupid he was acting.

'Poor boy,' Senior Choi mused as he looked at Chad, whose attention was now on helping out his son, who did nothing but distract Chad from getting closer to Raven.

'It's not like he can always guard Raven like this,' Senior thought while shaking his head.

"Master Jean stop staring," Nanny Rong scolded because she noticed how keenly Senior Choi assessed Chad.

"Ah, it would be nice, Master, to buy an island, don't you think?" Nanny Rong bluntly suggested while feasting her eyes on the beauty of nature surrounding them.

"Don't worry, Rong, I bet that brat Jordan will look for one to buy as soon as he is back in the city," Senior Choi scoffed with a wide grin. He already had his intuition about his son, but last night, he witnessed something that confirmed his hunch.

'Ah, you will still have a long road ahead, son. You should start working by now since I'm sure you will have a lot of competition soon,' Senior Choi quietly thought because he was sure men would line up for his little Raven's hand. And, of course, he was biased since he was silently cheering for his son on that matter on Raven.
