Fatal Love:CEO, please let me go

Chapter 68 Ice Bucket Punishment



After Damon tied their feet with the rope, Ben immediately went forward and tied their hands together with the rope.

Adele could clearly feel that the female colleague’s gaze could penetrate her.

When the back of her hand touched his, her face unconsciously turned red.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Suddenly, a low voice sounded in her ear, “Give me your hand.”

Adele was stunned. Then, her hand was held by him.

This was the first time that Damon had held her hand in front of so many people!

“Ah!”

The screams of the female colleague next to her flooded over with dissatisfaction.

Adele resisted the urge to laugh. Looking at the red rope tied to their hands, she was so happy that she almost fainted.

The referee, Daniel, who was at the side, finally couldn’t stand it anymore. He picked up the loudspeaker and shouted, “Okay, okay, everyone, get ready. The competition is about to start!”

Damon lowered his head and looked at the woman who was in a daze. He said softly, “You will follow my rhythm, understand?”

He didn’t want to get first place, as long as their group would not get punished.

Adele was a little stunned, and then she raised her head and said, “… Okay.”

After adjusting their condition, everyone stood behind the starting line. Following Daniel’s order, the group formed by the two quickly moved forward.

Adele had played similar games during school and did not feel that it was difficult, but who knew that just as she took a step, her body could not help but fall forward.

Fortunately, she was supported by Damon beside her, so she did not fall.

“Calm down, don’t rush,” Damon said softly.

Although he said that, when Adele looked up and saw that some groups had already rushed to the front, she unconsciously became anxious.

When she was anxious, the rhythm of her feet was naturally disrupted. In addition, Damon’s long steps were too big, so her body was crooked and once again she almost fell down.

They stopped a few times, and sure enough, they became the third last, and could not avoid being punished.

The punishment was to draw lots to decide whether to drink a big glass of red wine, face an ice bucket challenge, or a big adventure.

Adele randomly picked one, and it was an ice bucket challenge.

Damon lowered his head and looked at the words on the paper. His eyes suddenly darkened.

If the punishment was an ice bucket challenge, then he and Adele would be splashed with a big bucket of water mixed with ice. And she just had a fever a few days ago. If she was splashed with a bucket of ice water, she would not be able to stand it at all.

“Mr. Yusuf is going to be punished. It’s all because of Adele! She is so stupid!”

“Yes! I thought that Mr. Yusuf would win, but I didn’t expect…”

Hearing these voices, Adele blamed herself. She was indeed the one who had dragged Damon back.

Damon also heard it. He straightened his face and said, “I will bear the punishment alone. Because my steps were too big during the competition, I didn’t consider Adele, so I should take the responsibility alone.”

When he said this, everyone was shocked, followed by all kinds of praises.

“Oh my god! Mr. Yusuf is too manly!”

Adele was at the side, watching Damon take off his coat and wear only a short sleeve shirt. He ordered Ben to bring the ice bucket over, and she could not help but gasp.

Although the weather was not cold, no matter what, it was still water with ice added, two whole buckets, and he actually had to bear it alone!

She took a deep breath and immediately stepped forward to stop Ben. “No, this is my responsibility.”

When Damon heard this, he looked up at her. The two of them looked at each other, and for a moment, Adele felt as if her entire body was about to sink in.

A moment later, he looked away and turned to Ben.

Ben understood and poured a bucket of ice water on him. Under the uproar, Damon’s exposed skin turned red, and his whole body was wet.

Then, Ben picked up another bucket. Adele could not help but feel distressed and watched him pour second bucket of water on Damon.

Daniel, who was next to him, immediately took a dry towel and handed it over. Everyone’s faces were more or less serious. No matter what, Damon was their boss and Yusuf Group’s president. Being splashed with two buckets of water in public like this was more or less embarrassing.

Damon picked up the towel and wiped his face. He looked at the crowd and there was a smile in his eyes. “Bet is bet. You guys continue to play. I will go back and change clothes.”

When this was said, everyone laughed and the atmosphere became lively again.

Unexpectedly, their cold-faced president had such a side. He was a gentleman who took on the responsibility and was punished with dignity. In the end, he could even teach everyone a grand principle of life. It was really charming.

Adele looked at the man’s back and unconsciously raised the corners of her mouth. Her heart was filled with warmth and sweetness.

“Hey! Adele.”

Shirley ran over and poked Adele with her elbow. She smiled ambiguously. “How does it feel to hold hands with Mr. Yusuf? Are you dizzy with happiness?”

Adele smiled and patted her. “Stop making fun of me!”

“No, I’m serious! You are the envy of all the female colleagues now!”

“Humph! Envy my ass!” A female voice suddenly came from the side, her tone sharp and unkind.

Adele and Shirley were both stunned. When they turned their heads, they saw Sherry coming from the side.

When she saw her, Adele’s gaze darkened.

Sherry glanced at her and snorted coldly, “Didn’t you hear what Mr. Yusuf just said? He’s married! Do you want to be a home-wrecker?”

“Your words are too harsh!” Shirley couldn’t stand it anymore and spoke up to defend Adele.

Sherry sneered and asked, “Did I say her name? Or do you think she is a home-wrecker by nature?”

“You!”

Adele reached out and pulled Shirley to the side. “Alright, it’s not worth getting angry over that kind of person.”

Moreover, she knew very well what relationship she had with Damon, so she naturally would not be angry because of what she said.

“She’s really too annoying!” Shirley said angrily.

“Let’s go,” Adele said with a smile. “Let’s go to the restaurant to eat something.”

“Okay.”

As soon as they talked about eating, their mood immediately became much better. After telling the supervisor, they left the entertainment hall.

When they rushed to the restaurant, there were already many people coming and going.

Adele and Shirley found a place to sit down and ordered their meal.

After chatting for a while, Shirley suddenly saw something and pointed in a direction with a shocked expression. “Adele, look!”

Adele turned around in the direction she pointed and saw Damon and Isabella walking in side by side from the restaurant door.

There were no assistants and attendants behind them. As they walked, they talked about something. Isabella turned around from time to time and looked at the man beside her with a gentle smile.

Adele’s heart suddenly contracted, and then she felt a little depressed. She looked away, and her heart was sour.

Shirley was still staring at the two of them, and she could not help but sigh, “So what Grace and the others said today is true. Are Mr. Yusuf and Isabella dating? But isn’t Mr. Yusuf already married…?”

Hearing this, Adele subconsciously frowned. She took a deep breath, and her heart was a mess.

Could it be that there was really a relationship between Damon and Isabella?
