Chapter 121 – [Hawaii] [My Babies]
[Leanna's POV]
[Hawaii]
I glanced at the infinite blue sky, promising sunshine throughout the day. The majestic crystal clear blue ocean was enticing everyone to discover the treasures hidden within the deep. The golden sand sparkled like tiny jewels under the dazzling sunlight while colorful gemstones like seashells scattered throughout the beach, waiting to be pick.
Warm breeze swirled around us, sending our hairs in all different directions. The gentle crashing waves against the shore were forming white foams. The saltwater smell and soft, smooth sand that massaged my feet sent a feeling of peace to my veins.
Men with nothing but briefs and shorts were playing volleyball and Frisbee. Tanned women wearing skimpy bikinis were lying under the sun. Children's laughter and giggles echoed all around as they played in the sand, building sandcastles. Some adventurous people were water-skiing and paragliding while some relax in a canoe and yacht.
I took in a mouthful of the warm seawater air.
Ahh . . . Hawaii!
"I think we should try the parasailing or maybe the paragliding first. Wait . . . I think diving is more excit––augh!"
"Zoe!"
I was surprised when a ball appeared out of nowhere and landed on Zoe's head.
"Pft . . . Sorry."
My eyes slid towards a snickering tanned man with brunet hair who was approaching us. There were also men and women at the back who were smirking and laughing. I noticed that almost all of the people here were from well-known families.
Must be here for Sophia's debut.
I fastened my cover-up when the man didn't bother to be subtle with the lust in his gaze as he swept us with his eyes.
"Sorry 'bout that." He smirked. "I didn't mea–– Argh!!"
His words were halted with his scream of agony when Zoe kicked the ball without warning, hitting him straight in the groin. He howled in pain as he went down on his knees as his two hands cupped the 'thing' between his thighs.
"Now we're even." Zoe grinned. She then grabbed my hand and pulled me away from the audience's sight.
I think Zoe became even more violent after that night.
Not that I mind, though.
After a while of bickering and nonstop arguing about what to do first, we settled in playing in the sand.

Sophia checked her surroundings. When she made sure that no one was around, she swiped a card key on Zoe's room.
Emma requested an extra card to Zoe's room without the girl's knowledge.
Sophia tiptoed inside and closed the door as quietly as she could. She checked the room for any signs of life before she arranged her wig and, like she owned the place –– sashayed towards the bed.
Her eyes landed on a beautiful, simple dress that was resting on the mattress.
She smirked and pulled a scissor from her bag.

Nicholas's eyes kept landing on Emma Collin's wig. Though the wig looked natural, it didn't hide the noticeable gap between her forehead and the false hair.
He wanted to ask what happened to her and Sophia, but something was telling him it was a dangerous topic to venture into.
"Here."
Emma handed a card to him, which he accepted. His gaze still locked on the artificial object on the woman's head.
"The spare card key to Zoe's room."
He swiftly retracted his gaze when he heard Emma's hissing tone.
"The plan is simple. Since we can't use drugs directly, I've replaced the incense in her room. After the party, the staff will turn on every incense in everyone's room. All you have to do is wait."
He wanted to say something, but Emma already strode away to entertain some guests who walked into the hotel's restaurant.
The corner of his mouth twitched into a sneer.
This time for sure.

[Estela's POV]
[My Babies]
"Eh? Hawaii?"
I blinked.
My brain already imagined my brother in his shorts and, more importantly –– Zhander with nothing on but his underwear.
"I want to go!"
"I'll wait for you in the lobby in an hour."
"Uhmm . . . Is it alright if . . . Zhander come?"
". . ."
". . ."
"I see . . ."
I shivered at my brother's two words reply.
I knew he knew I was already going out with Zhander.
"Alright . . ."
Was all he said before he ended the call.
I ignored the chill in my bones at my brother's sinister 'alright' and dialed Zhander's number.
"Little Stella . . . ? You do know it's only two in the morning, right?"
I tried to stop the moans threatening to escape when I clenched so hard at Zhander's groggy voice. Clearly, he just woke up and still sleepy.
"Zhander! Let's go to Hawaii!"
". . ."
"What?"
I sensed Zhander was shocked awake by now.
"I thought you wanted to go to an amusement park today for our first date?"
"Well . . . you know~ your naked body excites me more."
Zhander chuckled. As usual, he didn't take me seriously.
"Alright, I'll pick you up later then."
I bit my lower lip and acted all cute as if he was in front of me.
"Actually . . . I wanted to go now together with my brother. You know, to Sophia Collin's debut."
. . .
. . .
"Alright, let's compromise . . . I'll be there in an hour, but you have to go with me."
"Yes! Thank you!"
I hopped around in excitement when we ended the call.
I sprinted towards my closet and typed a secret code that opened a hidden compartment that hid all my weaponized clothes for seducing Zhander.
I pulled out a slingshot G string swimsuit that only covered the nipples and private parts, and smirked.
Tehehehehe. I can now make use of you, my babies.

I checked my appearance some more in front of the full-length mirror. I was wearing a white sweetheart-neck sleeveless top paired with short jeans and flip-flops.
Satisfied, I grabbed my duffle bag and stormed down to the lobby where Zhander was waiting.
I expected kisses and intimate hugs as greetings. Thus, I was surprised to find Zhander on the floor while my brother, with his overbearing aura, was standing in front of him.
"Zhander!"
I ran towards his direction and kneeled near him. I was pained when I saw the bruise on his left cheek and the blood dripping out from his beautiful nose. I snapped at my brother, narrowing my eyes at him –– ready to wage war.
However, before I could even attack, my brother snorted and said, "Ride with him. He needs someone to apply ice on his face."
He then strode towards his car and drove off.
. . .
. . .
It didn't escape my notice that it was my brother's way of telling me, he approved of Zhander and me going out.
But does he have to punch Zhander's face?
"I'm sorry . . . ," I said as I assisted Zhander on his feet.
Zhander just puffed a laughed.
"Don't worry.. I deserve this."
