111: Chapter 110 Chaos 111: Chapter 110 Chaos Frey’s driving skills weren’t bad, and though maneuvering a twelve-meter-long vehicle wasn’t easy, Frey managed to drive steadily to the airport.
However, parking did take some effort.
When Gao Yang entered the arrival hall, he saw on the information board that the flight he was waiting for had just landed.
It didn’t take long before he spotted Catherine, carrying a large backpack, and chatting and laughing with another woman as they emerged from the passageway.
After meeting up with Catherine, Gao Yang’s first concern was the woman accompanying her.
Contrary to Gao Yang’s expectation that she would be dressed rather androgynous, perhaps in a suit, the woman standing beside Catherine was dressed in a very feminine manner, with long chestnut hair, a delicate nose, and full lips.
She had a finely chiseled yet somewhat wild face, looking very sensual, even more womanly than Catherine in her outdoor gear.
After standing before Gao Yang, Catherine hugged him warmly and smiled, “Let me introduce you, Yang, this is my friend I’ve told you about, Adele Allen.
Adele, this here is Gao Yang.”
Gao Yang felt Adele Allen looked somewhat familiar.
After thinking for a moment, he realized Adele bore a strong resemblance to an actress from the American TV series “Breaking Bad” he had just watched.
She was a spitting image of Kristen Alice Ritter, also from England, not only in hairstyle and color but also in looks and demeanor.
Undoubtedly, Adele was a beauty, possibly even prettier than Catherine, who was originally Gao Yang’s target.
But upon considering that Adele was a lesbian, competing for the affections of women with him, Gao Yang immediately felt there was nothing attractive about Adele.
As Gao Yang was sizing up Adele, she too was assessing Gao Yang.
It was as if sparks were flying from their eyes.
Out of politeness, Gao Yang exchanged a greeting with Adele, then went to take the large backpack from Catherine.
He naturally ignored Adele’s suitcase.
While Gao Yang and Adele were locking eyes, Yelena was also having a moment of eye contact with Catherine.
When Gao Yang took Catherine’s backpack, Catherine chuckled lightly, “Gao, aren’t you going to introduce your friend?”
Gao Yang felt a bit awkward and gestured towards Yelena, “I apologize, Catherine.
She is my, my friend, Yelena, a Russian.
And this is Frey, also my, my friend, from South Africa.”
As Gao Yang spoke, he seemed worried, but there was not a hint of displeasure on Yelena’s face, who smiled and shook hands with both Catherine and Adele, saying warmly, “Welcome to South Africa.
I hope you have a pleasant time here.”
Frey, with a stern face, naturally took the big backpack from Gao Yang and then immediately extended a courteous hand towards Adele, “Miss, please allow me to take care of your luggage.”
Excellently playing the role of a bodyguard and lackey, Frey took both people’s luggage and then stepped aside, vigilantly scanning the surroundings.
After making an exaggerated expression, Catherine whispered, “What’s next on the agenda?
I’d like to hear your plans.”
“I’ve already booked a hotel for us.
We’ll go to the hotel first, leave our things, and then go out for a meal.
After dinner, whatever you feel like doing is fine.”
Catherine and Adele were indeed surprised by Gao Yang’s extended luxury car, but neither said much, only expressing their thanks to Gao Yang.
In the following days, Gao Yang was in agony because whenever the four of them got together, he felt like the fifth wheel.
Yelena and Catherine had a rivalry, as did Gao Yang and Adele.
Then Gao Yang had to keep up enough enthusiasm and politeness towards Catherine without making Yelena sad, and while making sure Catherine couldn’t suspect anything, he had to constantly think about Yelena.
Yelena and Adele didn’t want to see Gao Yang and Catherine together, so they formed an alliance, acting warmly and friendly towards each other and intentionally or unintentionally helping one another to strike at their rivals.
In short, the relationship between the four of them was one word, chaos!
Over the next three days, Yelena subtly and implicitly expressed her love for Gao Yang.
It didn’t irk Gao Yang, yet was evident enough for Catherine to notice.
Perhaps Yelena’s behavior ignited Catherine’s competitive spirit, so Catherine also began to unconsciously show her fondness for Gao Yang.
A war without smoke of gunpowder broke out among the three women, with Yelena and Catherine trying to intimidate each other into backing down, and Adele striving to pull Catherine back.
Gao Yang stood on the sidelines, unable to intervene in the women’s war.
Since nobody wanted to give their rivals an opportunity, the best strategy was to never let the other out of sight.
So, over these three days, the four were almost inseparable, except when they each retired to their rooms to sleep.
Even when Gao Yang couldn’t bear the odd atmosphere among the three women and tried to escape, Yelena and Catherine would find a way to pull him back.
Gao Yang couldn’t figure out how those who enjoyed the company of several others managed to do it.
The law dictates that a man can only marry one wife, which is clearly designed to protect men.
Over these three days, it was virtually impossible for Gao Yang to have a private conversation with Catherine.
Even though he had decided to come clean with Catherine, he never found the chance.
Currently, Gao Yang just wanted to send Catherine and Adele away as quickly as possible.
As for whether Catherine would be “converted” and become a lesbian, that was Catherine’s own affair.
As long as she felt happy, Gao Yang didn’t have the time to consider the question of Catherine’s sexual orientation any longer.
Finally, the time for Catherine and Adele to leave had come.
After lunch with the three women, Gao Yang was about to send Catherine and Adele away, and by then, he would be free from this agony.
As lunch was almost over, Yelena suddenly found an excuse to take Adele away.
Although Adele was reluctant, she still left the dining room with Yelena, and that was when Gao Yang finally got the chance to be alone with Catherine.
Watching Yelena and Adele leave, Catherine let out a sigh of relief and smiled, “Oh my God, these past few days have been driving me crazy.
I didn’t expect to have a little girl as my competitor, which really adds to the pressure.
Gao, I never realized your charm was so great.”
Gao Yang replied awkwardly, “Well, that, I can’t help it, but have you made a choice?”
Gao Yang decided to be straightforward, but Catherine simply shrugged and said, “No, I’m more confused than ever.
I feel that, although Adele is great, she might be better as a friend than a lover.
And as for you, I haven’t decided.
In this situation, I can’t make a judgment.”

The battle is about to begin.
