Carla couldn't resist rolling her eyes. Despite being a kid Sean kept quiet in the queue and never complained, but Sherry couldn't stand it.
But she let it go anyway. She asked Sherry to come with them in the first place. Now Carla felt obliged to had to pay adequate courtesy to a princess wearing high heels to play in an amusement park.
Luckily, Noah gave her his phone number yesterday.
"Hello, Mr. Noah. This is Carla. We have arrived at the amusement park. Right now we are waiting in a queue at the entrance to get in." Carla didn't mention the intention of her call directly, but her words did render a hint.
Noah was a very smart person. Of course he figured out what she was trying to imply.
"Why didn't you call me earlier? You and your friends can wait for me at the VIP passageway. I will be there as soon as I can," said Noah via the phone.
After hanging up, Carla accompanied Sean and Princess Sherry to the VIP passageway.
Sherry took a long breath of relief after having got out of the endless line. She pulled her dress straightening it up and took out the face powder to fix her makeup which required some amelioration.
"Carla!"
Noah walked over in front of them. "Next time you come in here, call me in advance and you won't have to wait for so long under the sun."
As he said that, he handed over some drinks and gave them to Sean, Carla and Sherry.
"Thank you," said Carla as she accepted the icy drink. She pulled Sean over to her side and introduced, "Sean, this is Mr. Noah, a friend of Sherry and I. Our tickets for this time have been given by Mr. Noah."
Sean blinked instantly and smiled at Noah. "Thank you, Mr. Noah."
Noah chuckled as he praised him for being smart, and then said, "Sean, if you could see me as your big brother and just call me Noah, I'd be happier."
Sean turned a deaf ear to him and just twisted off the cap of the bottle and started to drink.
Of course he wouldn't call him Brother.
In his heart, he had only one brother. That was Terence. He was irreplaceable for him.
If any other person want to be treated as a big brother by him, they had to at least make sure if he was in a good mood.
"Mr. Noah, how are you? You have been ignoring me so far." Sherry's eyes had never left Noah since he appeared, but he hadn't said a word to her voluntarily so far.
Noah turned to her and gave out a gentle smile after hearing her words. He reached out his hand and said, "Hello, Miss Sherry. I apologize for my rudeness. You look gorgeous today! You won't be mad at me, will you?"
Sherry gave him a shy smile and shook his hand, and then said affectionately, "Okay, I won't be mad at you since you seem to be sincere with your apology."
After shaking Noah's hand gently, she held his arm and walked by his side throughout the footpath. Carla and Sean walked along by the side of the couple keeping a safe distance.
The team led by the big boss Noah walked around the amusement park unimpeded. Sean was so excited since he wouldn't miss any games that he wanted to play.
A tourist car had been called to ferry them around the park. The formality of having to wait standing in long queues had also been avoided. They had all their enthusiasm persistent in them for a long day of fun and frolic.
Sherry didn't play much. The reason was simple. Playing wildly might ruin her public image and she wasn't willing to do that. She couldn't afford to risk it.
But she realized that it would seem ridiculous if she didn't play at all. After all, people went to amusement park to play and have some fun.
So she suggested going to the ghost house. Even though she was afraid, she assumed it would be surely better than sitting on those wildly whirling machines throwing herself one way or the other.
"Wow! Great! I want to go to the ghost house too!"
Sean's eyes lit up instantly when he heard her mentioning the ghost house. He was faintly frightened but his excitement and curiosity had no limits. He was willing to risk it for once.
"Mr. Noah, if you are busy, you don't have to accompany us." Carla felt uncomfortable that Noah had to spend all this time with them.
