Chapter 141
Most of Ava’s colleagues from the other departments had already arrived. It was a jolly time as everyone was setting up tents and preparing for the barbecue night. Upon knowing about the President’s arrival, they had already set up a tent at the best position. As soon as Damien got out of the bus, he went into the tent for a rest. Meanwhile, Ava and a group of girls had to help themselves with the tools and set up the tents.
Of course, she was incapable of doing these things. There was nothing she could do here at all. Luella was also a girl who knew nothing about this. She didn’t even understand the instruction manual, so she had to ask a guy in the Marketing Department for help. “Hey, you’re amazing! Did you go camping with your friends often?” While the guy was helping, Luella kept showering him with praises, which made him blush. Ava was embarrassed for doing nothing, so she took the initiative to help him. When Damien walked out of the tent, he saw Ava laughing and chatting away happily with a young male colleague.
His expression immediately became visibly displeased. Then he walked towards her. “Pre… President.” The male employee stuttered in fear upon seeing him “Dempsey is searching for clean water with some other people. Stop loafing about. Follow me now.” He said to Ava.
Ava immediately pulled along Luella with her and followed behind Damien. In fact, their camping site was just a stone’s throw from the river. They arrived shortly, and several of their colleagues were seen having fun in the water. Some even took off their shoes and started catching fish in the stream.
Of course, catching fish bare-handed and without tools was really difficult. Luella was very playful. She immediately pulled Ava along with her and went down to the water to catch some snails. However, Ava hesitated to go. Suddenly, Damien voiced out, “She is afraid of water, don’t pull her down.” “Uh? President, how do you know about that?”
Ava’s face turned pale.
She had never told anyone about this before.
Perhaps it was because she had fallen into the sea and had an accident, or maybe it was because she didn’t know how to swim. Anyway, she would feel an inexplicable sense of fear and panic every time she got close to the water. However, how did Damien know about this? Fortunately, Luella didn’t dare to dive deeper about it from the President. After that, other colleagues called her over and she walked into the stream barefooted. The stream was very shallow, and the water level was just around her calf. In fact, it wasn’t as dangerous as she thought.
Meanwhile, Ava stood on the shore. She was still afraid of approaching the water. “… I’d better go back.”
She wanted to turn around and leave, but Damien grabbed onto her wrist.
She was afraid of being seen by her colleagues, so she immediately struggled off his grip.
“Let’s sit here for a while. We’d have to help out if we head back to the campsite now,” he said to her. At the campsite, everyone was busy setting up the barbeque stove before dawn. Besides, they still had to set up the tents, internet router, and also food preparation. There were just endless tasks waiting to be done.
It turned out that the main reason Damien pulled her out to the river was just to laze around.
As a matter of fact, she was more than happy to be doing nothing. Therefore, she quickly found a sturdy stone and sat on it. However, she was three steps away from Damien.
