American winner takes all

Chapter 454: Carnival at Sea (Part )

King Harbor, Santa Monica, Los Angeles.

As night fell, under the gorgeous sunset, an ultra-large luxury private yacht with a length of more than 100 meters was docked at the pier. Set against the backdrop of a number of private yachts of more than ten meters or dozens of meters around it, it looked like a huge monster.

The yacht was built by a European yacht maker, and everything about it looked brand new, with three decks, a steam room, glass railings, luxurious decorations, and a large sunroom on the top floor. Everything was built to a very high standard. And tonight was the time for the first voyage to begin.

At this moment, in the main cabin with a complete bar, six curved sofas, soft artificial wool carpet on the floor, and floor-to-ceiling windows all around, Ethan was listening to the captain's report on the expected itinerary.

"The entire voyage will last for a week. We will first go to San Nicolas Island, passing through Malibu, Catalina Island, and Santa Barbara. During this period, we can sail freely, snorkel and dive. There are also abundant fish resources in the waters. After arriving at the destination, we will follow another route to Ensenada, Mexico, and finally return to Los Angeles..."

As Ethan listened, he looked outside the glass curtain wall. Susan was directing the sailors and workers to move the food, drinks and props needed for the voyage from the deck to the storage room inside.

I could faintly hear noisy voices, probably because the female models had already come onto the boat.

"Let's go." Ethan nodded to the captain.

As the huge yacht sailed out of the dock, Ethan also stood up and went downstairs to meet the female models...

·
At the same time, in a luxury hotel banquet hall in Los Angeles, the seated guests looked at each other, while a small half of the seats were still empty.

"Why haven't you arrived yet?" Razek asked one of his men.

The other party was also a little confused, after all, the models had already left on the bus.

Ten minutes later, the staff called the driver and told Razek a shocking fact.

"My subordinates made a mistake. Ethan is also planning a celebration tonight, and all the models who were supposed to attend the celebration party have gone to his place." Razek had no choice but to report this fact to his boss.

Wexner, with his head full of white hair, was stunned and asked thoughtfully: "Are you sure this wasn't planned by Ethan from the beginning?"

"Of course not, it's just a misunderstanding." Razek shook his head.

I thought that if this was really planned from the beginning, I would probably be on the ship by now. Who would come to attend such a boring celebration party?

On the other hand, the news that all the models were taken away on Ethan's private yacht also spread among other guests. Some of their agents and assistants immediately contacted a female model who was unfortunately taken away.

Wexner also called Ethan.

"Already set off? That means Victoria's Secret will treat them well and further the cooperation... Does your agency want to be the sole supplier of Victoria's Secret Angels?" Wexner heard Ethan's thoughts on the other end of the phone.

After the successful conclusion of this year's cooperation, Ethan wants to further establish long-term cooperation with Victoria's Secret.

This can also reduce Victoria's Secret's costs. Moreover, this year's Victoria's Secret show was more successful than expected. Wexner knew that this was a win-win cooperation and agreed immediately.

·
On the deck, Ethan felt mixed emotions as he looked at the nearly thirty female models and three female singers from Destiny's Child who were staring at him.

The good news is that through this cooperation, Wexner saw the potential of himself and Angel Model Agency and officially decided to cooperate long-term in the future, which will have many benefits for Angel Model Agency.

The bad news is that the number of impacted guests was much greater than expected.

At first glance, this didn't seem like a bad thing. Ethan never mind having too many people, but the problem was that nearly half of them were meeting Ethan for the first time. These people were like light bulbs, which would completely ruin the atmosphere. He couldn't kick these people into the sea, and returning to the dock would interrupt the voyage, so Ethan could only bite the bullet and express his welcome.

"Wexner didn't tell us to stay on the ship for a week!" Carmen Keyes was the first one in the crowd to express her dissatisfaction. She just came to attend the celebration dinner, but she was told that she would be at sea for a whole week. All her personal belongings were with her assistant, and she didn't even have a cell phone on her at the moment.

"I told you, this is a misunderstanding. Half of you shouldn't have been here in the first place," Ethan explained patiently.

"Such a mistake is too low-level. You'd better ask the helmsman to change direction immediately! The sea breeze is giving me a headache." Carmen Keyes crossed her arms and said with great dissatisfaction.

After the show, she changed into casual clothes, but she still wore the pair of thin golden high-heeled shoes. At this moment, she stood on the deck with her arms folded. Her indignant expression, coupled with her golden hair fluttering in the sea breeze, gave her a wonderful sense of playfulness and beauty. She is indeed a top supermodel who can compete with Gisele.

But no matter how beautiful she was, Ethan couldn't treat her well.

"If you really want to go back, you can jump over the glass railing and go into the water immediately. We are not too far from the pier now. If you swim fast enough, you can swim back in about two hours, provided that you are not eaten by nearby sharks!" Ethan sneered.

If Carmen Keyes asked him in a nice way, he might give her a favor. There was a small speedboat on the ship, and it would not be difficult to send a few people back. But if she spoke like this, then there would be no deal.

"You are kidnapping!" Carmen was furious and gritted her teeth.

"Really? Then you can file a complaint against me with the district attorney once you get ashore. I have to remind you that I have no restrictions on your freedom. You can jump off the boat and leave at any time!"

Ethan's few words left Carmen Keyes completely speechless.

Seeing her speechless and frustrated look, Ethan was in a particularly good mood: "A week will be over soon. In these few days, we can not only enjoy the beautiful sea view, but also keep in touch with each other."

"This is the evil plot that was planned from the beginning! I would rather feed you to sharks than let you succeed!" Carmen Keyes became ruthless and without saying a word, she kicked off her high heels, took two steps at a time and a running start, and actually jumped from the railing of the first deck and jumped into the sea.

The faces of the models watching immediately changed, and Ethan was also shocked.

What a chaste woman!

Although he sighed, Ethan did not panic. Especially after seeing that Carmen was quite good at swimming, he decided to let her stay in the water for a while to improve her memory.

"Who else wants to swim back with her?" Ethan looked at the other models.

The female models looked at each other, no one dared to say a word, let alone provoke Ethan, the big boss.

On the other side, Carmen, floating on the sea, saw the yacht dragging a long and narrow wake farther and farther away from her, and no one was coming to rescue her.

"At worst, I'll just swim back and show you!" Carmen thought, and she was even more determined to tell the media everything she had experienced after she got ashore, and expose that bastard's true colors. She turned around and swam forward. She obviously didn't know that swimming in the sea was completely different from swimming in a swimming pool. There was endless ocean on all sides, which was a double test of physical and mental strength.

Soon Carmen felt her limbs go limp. When she looked back, the yacht had turned into a small dot.

The fear and loss of strength made her feel desperate, and at the same time she had an even stronger resentment towards Ethan!

When he realized that he might really die in the ocean, fear completely took over, which further accelerated the loss of his physical strength.

At this moment, Carmen actually saw a triangular fish fin slowly swimming towards her! The scene from the movie Jaws immediately emerged in her mind.

Carmen was instantly frightened out of her wits and swam like mad in the opposite direction of the fish fin.

At the same time, she saw a small boat approaching quickly not far away, and the person standing on the bow was none other than Ethan.

As if she had seen a savior, Carmen immediately waved towards Ethan, unaware that the shark fin behind her was getting closer and closer...

At the critical moment, Ethan leaned out and pulled Carmen onto the boat with one hand. Almost at the same time, a blue shark jumped out of the sea and rushed into the sea. Although it was not a terrifying "great white shark", it also attacked humans. If Carmen was really bitten, not to mention that the rescue methods on the boat were very limited, even after recovery, she might be left with large scars on her body, which was a devastating disaster for a model who made a living by her body.

Fortunately, Ethan has strong arm strength, otherwise someone else would definitely be much slower.

Carmen's mind went blank when she was dragged onto the speedboat. Her expression was stiff for a few seconds, and then she burst into tears.

Apart from the helmsman, Ethan was the only one on the speedboat. Seeing that Carmen was shivering from the cold, he took out the blanket he had prepared and wrapped her in it himself.

"I almost died here!" Carmen said with great fear, and she regretted her behavior just now.

Without even waiting for Ethan to comfort her, she threw herself into his arms with her wet golden hair.

Feeling that Carmen was really scared, Ethan put away his gloating expression and began to pat Carmen on the back to comfort her.

As the yacht got closer, Carmen suddenly pulled back and kept her distance from Ethan. She didn't want Gisele and the others to misunderstand.

Stepping onto the solid wood deck again, Carmen felt at ease with the solid touch.

"Do you want to jump off the boat again?" Ethan asked as he returned to the yacht.

Carmen immediately shook her head and decided that she would not go into the water again no matter how they urged her.

Although she shook her head, Carmen added with some caution: "You have to keep a certain distance from me the whole time, at least 15, no... 25 centimeters!"

Ethan sneered, thinking that Carmen took him too seriously. This ship was filled with the world's top female models.

Carmen's survival made everyone feel scared. At this time, the sky had completely darkened, and all the lights on the yacht were turned on. The models went to the semi-open rest area at the back of the cabin on the first floor. There were large bed-style sofas on the left and right sides, which could be used for sitting or lying, and several full-body recliners at the end. Ethan asked the crew to take out the barbecue grill, and then he started to make American barbecue in the crowd. The four secretaries also became waiters, helping Ethan while entertaining everyone.

The sizzling ribs, paired with the calorie bomb mayonnaise and honey sauce, are simply the natural enemy of every model. You know, nowadays these top models all maintain what can be called a demanding diet. Although the food is tempting, no one enjoys it.

Finally, the three black female singers from Destiny's Child took the lead, followed by Gisele Bundchen. Her focus was no longer on the catwalk, so she didn't have so many concerns. Gisele ate it, so Carolina was not to be outdone. Then Tai and Hai also expressed their desire to try Ethan's cooking...

"smell good!"

Gisele ate with relish, her mouth full of oil, and she looked so adorable.

"I didn't expect you to have this ability, Ethan." Hai's mother sucked her fingertips and then gave Ethan a thumbs up.

Ethan said that he learned this from Catherine.

Human beings tend to follow the crowd. The psychological defenses of the female models collapsed one after another. Under the temptation of delicious food, they chose to follow their appetites. Even Carmen was not immune. At first, she just tore off a piece of meat and tasted it. When the distinct texture of the meat and the sweet sauce fermented on her taste buds, she subconsciously made a comfortable nasal sound.

The almost forgotten food memory in her brain was suddenly awakened, which made her quickly tear off another large piece, put it directly into her mouth, and chew it with relish. Then she tore off the second piece, the third piece, and finally she just grabbed a large piece with both hands and started chewing it.

If even the self-disciplined Carmen is like this, other models are certainly not immune.

"We will sail into the high seas tonight and forget everything in the secular world. This is a paradise and we can do anything here!" said Ethan's secretary Sarah Karen. She has organized similar gatherings many times and naturally knows how to create a good atmosphere.

The bottom line is lost step by step. He has just broken the "meat precept", and the next one is the "alcohol precept". Ethan's four secretaries began to mix alcoholic drinks, and the base ingredient was the famous "Four Locks". This thing appeared frequently at Ethan's high school and college graduation ceremonies, leading to a series of virginity losses.

In addition to adding lemon slices and spirits such as vodka to increase the alcohol concentration, Sarah Karen, who is in charge of cocktail making, also added some additional seasonings, which are all standard stimulants prohibited for athletes. In addition, Four Locos itself contains caffeine, taurine and guarana extract. The final effect turns the barrel of wine into a peculiar purple-red color, which looks uniquely "evil" under the light.

"I call it the Carnival Bomb! I guarantee that everyone will be high until dawn!" Sarah quietly introduced it to Ethan.

"Don't worry, it's absolutely safe, not addictive, and without any side effects. Even an old nun who has stayed in the church all her life can't resist that feeling." Then, without waiting for Ethan to speak, she took the initiative to distribute the wine to everyone, and then took the lead in taking a big sip.

I didn't expect Sarah Karen to have such a role? Ethan felt surprised, but considering that Sarah Karen was once his boss, it was not so surprising.

Ethan also tasted the wine. Apart from being a little sweet, he didn't feel anything special about it. He even thought the alcohol content was too low.

Others seemed to have the same feeling, and before they knew it, they drank a whole glass of wine, followed by a second glass, and a third glass...

While drinking, Sarah Karen also took the lead in launching various drinking games, and then naturally transitioned to the "confession game." Models who lost the game either drank or were forced to talk about something shameful, or both.

After a few rounds, the atmosphere of the party gradually changed due to the sea breeze and the excitement.

Ethan noticed that people started to hug each other in the corner, and the people around them looked at him without concealing their gazes, like hungry wolves seeing their prey!
As if to embarrass each other, the person who loses the game needs to talk about the past and do more and more outrageous actions...
