Beverley didn't care that Brent still hadn't returned. By this time, she had arrived at the hotel room and received some directions from the hotel staff. After they left, she immediately admired the entire extremely spacious room.
It was a truly amazing room. Apart from the master bedroom, there is also a sizable living room and a kitchen equipped with a pantry, mini bar, and coffee maker. When else would she have the chance to enjoy such luxury?
The king-size bed is decorated with towels formed into two swans facing each other. There is a sprinkling of fresh roses around it.
Beverley snorted. "So Carol meant what she said. But this will be useless," she commented.
Then she opened the glass door that led to a balcony terrace, which was quite wide. The terrace faces directly to the sea. It's a very strategic place to enjoy the beauty of Waikiki Beach.
It's almost dusk. Beverley wanted to see the sunset. At that moment, the door to the room opened. She looked back and saw Brent enter. The man looked somber and unhappy. His expression was flat and cold.
She didn't want to care about him and only stood near the balcony railing, looking out to sea. Her long hair is being blown by the wind. She took a deep breath while closing her eyes.
The sound of Brent's footsteps was heard. She turned her head and saw the man standing not far from her. "How long will we be here?" she asked.
Brent didn't answer. He just kept silent, staring at the orange and purple sky. A flock of seagulls flies above the waves. It had been a very long time since he had been able to enjoy beauty like this.
He turned his head to the side and noticed the woman, who was also enjoying the view. The sunset light made her skin glow golden. It looks beautiful and sexy. Her hair fluttering in the wind exposed her slender neck. Her naturally red lips bloomed in a faint smile.
Brent's mind became erratic. Natalie had teased him before. Even if he rejects her, that doesn't mean he isn't aroused or tempted. He just didn't want to be trapped by her offer of pleasure. Then he had to hold it in front of Beverley, who was hot.
He gritted his teeth, then said in a slightly hoarse voice, "We only have three days. You must make good use of your time." After that, he turned back into the room.
Beverley simply shrugged her shoulders and began snapping photos on her phone. Satisfied, she continued on her way and went to her room.
At that moment, Brent had just come out of the bathroom. He was only wearing a towel covering his waist. His muscular chest and six-pack abs are exposed. His skin is still damp. A few drops of water fell from his wet black hair onto his chest.
Beverley was stunned to see that. Her mouth was wide open, but no words came out. She may have had some contact with Brent's body, but she never saw him uncovered. The man looks so sexy and emits strong testosterone.
Oh, Lord!
She swallowed her saliva. No! She couldn't fall for Brent, no matter how sexy, seductive, and charming he was. That man had done something bad to her many times. And she still hasn't forgiven him.
"Why aren't you wearing clothes?!" She immediately shouted after clearing her heart and mind. She turned her back on Brent because she didn't want to stare at the man's body for too long.
Brent raised his eyebrows. "What is the problem? Are you worried about being seduced by me?"
"How could it be?" Beverley immediately shook her head. "That... We are a man and a woman. You shouldn't show your body so easily."
Brent stared at Beverley's back. His head is slightly tilted. The woman's demeanor and reaction just showed that she was very innocent and shy. Is she always like that? Somehow it looks adorable to him.
He picked up his cell phone, then walked slowly toward Beverley. The corner of his lips turned up. "Man and woman? No. Aren't we husband and wife?"
"We are not real husband and wife. And we've always hated the fact that we were ever married!" Beverley reminded. She immediately took a few steps forward when she felt the man approaching.
"Don't come any closer, Brent!" she exclaimed warily.
Brent snorted at Beverley's refusal. "You are right. We don't even have a wedding reception."
"I don't care about the reception or whatever. After all, you have a sweetheart. I don't want to mess up your relationship and make her hate me," Beverley said seriously.
The man just kept quiet.
Beverley's brow furrowed. She quietly looked back and saw Brent standing not far behind her. The man still wasn't wearing clothes and was looking at her with a grin.
"Why are you still not wearing clothes?!" she shouted angrily. To avoid the half-naked Brent, she dashed into the bathroom. She better takes a shower!
Brent just shrugged his shoulders. Then he called Jace. His assistant immediately answered, "Yes, Sir."
"Why is my luggage still not delivered? Do you think I'll be wearing a bathrobe all night?" asked Brent sarcastically.
Jace, on the other end of the phone, laughed. "Please wait a little longer."
"You should also find clothes for Bev. The girl didn't bring any clothes," Brent added.
"I understand. However, shouldn't you tell me the measurements? Or maybe her taste in clothes." Jace's voice sounded hesitant.
"Do you think I know about that?" Brent returned sarcastically. He snorted. "Whatever. She won't have any choice but to wear the clothes provided anyway."
"Okay." Jace hung up.
Moments later, there was a knock on the bedroom door. Jace came with Brent's not-so-big luggage. He looked around but didn't see Beverly. Finally, he said, "Our people are buying clothes for your wife."
Brent nodded indifferently. He opened his luggage and took out his clothes that had been prepared beforehand. He noticed Jace was still there, then immediately looked at him dryly. "What are you still here for?"
"Ah, don't you need anything else? How about tonight? I mean... Do you need a 'safety'?" Jace asked in a whisper.
"...."
Brent viciously kicks Jace out of the room. The man groaned in pain while holding his ass. "I'm just asking! Why are you so angry?" he complained.
"Scram!" Brent closed the door immediately after. Why would Jace ask that? This honeymoon was just a sham. He doesn't need any "safety".
He snorted and quickly put on his clothes. Suddenly, the sound of Beverley's screams came from the direction of the bathroom. "Brent, where are you?!"
Brent did not immediately answer or approach the woman. He finished his clothes first. Then the woman's voice came again. "Dear Mr. Oliver!"
Brent let out a rough breath. He rubbed his wet hair with a towel as he walked over to the woman, who was sticking her head out from behind the bathroom door.
"What are you screaming for?" he asked somberly. "Very noisy!"
"Brent, I didn't have any clothes!" Beverley exclaimed with a little annoyance. She had forgotten that she had come here without any preparation. It was that man who had brought her here all of a sudden.
"Didn't I ask you to pack beforehand?" Brent looked at her lazily.
"If you say we're going to Hawaii, do you believe I'm going to fill up some baggage at once?" Beverley retorted indignantly.
Brent crossed his arms over his chest. The muscles in his arms and chest stood out against his thin white t-shirt. "You can wear a bathrobe."
"Yeah, I have done it!" Beverley glared slightly. She swallowed her saliva. "But I'm uncomfortable."
"Why not?"
Beverley snorted and looked at the man warily. That time, she was not wearing a bra or panties. So, she was worried that Brent might do something bad to her. She was reluctant to come out of the bathroom.
Brent smiled mockingly. "So, you're afraid of me?"
"How could I not be scared? You can abuse me again," she said in a low voice.
Brent's brow furrowed slightly. He sighed. "Get out. You can wear my clothes first. My subordinates are looking for clothes for you."
"Oh. But it doesn't help at all," Beverley said. She couldn't just wear Brent's clothes.
"Hmm?"
Beverley swallowed hard. Did this guy really not know what she meant? Was he just playing dumb?
The problem wasn't the clothes, it was the underwear. She needed a bra and panties to protect her assets!
