Chapter 669


    ?


    What other choices did Caroline have? Frederick would probably think that she was messing around and she couldn''t call her father or Levi either! If she did, then wouldn''t her entire family find out about it?


    By that time, she would be subjected to her family''s rules! Her parents were not as open-minded as her Aunt Clements. There was a rule in her household stating that she wasn''t allowed to go to entertainment ces alone. Besides that, she even needed to inform her parents before going to her friend''s party!


    If her family discovered that she hade here alone and was almost caught up in an incident, the punishment for her actions would have been inevitable! Caroline bit her lips in horror at the memory of her brother who was whipped until his skin was torn.


    Caroline wasn''t twenty-five yet! In her family, she was not even of age to freely roam in and out of a ce like the nightclub!


    What should she do? Who could guarantee her safety without selling her out to her family? Caroline thought to herself.


    Caroline was on tenterhooks as she began to frown. With her condition then, it was impossible to hide the truth from her family if she chose to go home!


    While drinking his ss of whiskey, Nichs also inquired about the present state of the club. Concurrently, he did not take his eyes off the troubled figure who was seated beside him.


    Pushing his ss back, he got up and turned towards the aisle on the other side. Caroline dawdled after him and clutched his arms once again as if Nichs was her lifesaver.


    "Cm..."


    "What do you think you''re doing? I''ll throw you out if you keep following me!"


    He withdrew his hand and pivoted his body to the opposite side.


    The next second, Caroline immediately rushed in front of him. She cupped his hands and begged him with a pleading look, "Um... Could you send me home?"


    "Haha, what?"


    Amused by her words, Nichs chuckled as he asked, "Youngdy, how old are you? Are you still a child?"


    What on earth was going on inside that brain of hers? Earlier, Caroline was desperately searching for her brother, and now she was begging a stranger to send her home?


    Caroline''s face was flushed as she fiddled the hem of her dress in embarrassment.


    "I''m an adult, so you better not look down on me! I''m, I''m just... a little scared! Or could you help me find my brother? Aren''t you the boss here? Please help me out..."


    Looking at her innocent eyes and serious expression, Nichs was utterly clueless as to why her family had been so careless and allowed a youngdy like her to venture into such a dangerous ce like the nightclub.


    Nichs inadvertently gazed over at the cell phone in Caroline''s hand. He couldn''t help but squinted his eyes and asked, "Youngdy, where did youe from? Would you like me to call 911 for you?"


    Was she concealing her true intentions to approach him? Otherwise, why didn''t she call her parents with her cell phone? Instead, she was begging him, a total stranger, to send her back! Was she really that dense? Wasn''t she afraid that he might do something bad to her? Nichs thought.


    His grim tone was filled with an unruffled irony. Despite how foolish she was, Caroline was able to perceive the rejection in his words and the sense of him looking down on her. Discontented by his response, she then pursed her lips tightly.


    Was he implying that she was stupid? He was the stupid one! Why would she need him if she could call them without a single concern? He was really an idiot! Caroline thought.


    Despite so, she held her tongue and dared not to mention those thoughts. Right then, she was contemting whether it was better to exin it to him or just ask him for a favor. Before Caroline could say anything, Nichs had already turned around and left.


    Caroline lifted her feet as she hurriedly chased after him "Hey..."


    "Stop following me!"


    Nichs'' cold voice was apanied by a menacing gaze. At that moment, Caroline paused for a few seconds before she started following him again.


    That would not work! What if he ignored her? What should she do then? Not to mention she wasn''t allowed to leave the house, she would then have a tough time exining that to her family! She thought. Caroline didn''t want to be grounded just because she was caught in a pickle!


    She kept her distance as she tailed Nichs to the direction he headed. In an instant, Caroline was full of regret. If only she had known this would happen, then she wouldn''t havee here in the first ce! The nightclub was exactly like a tiger''s den, and it was simply terrifying!


    Her life was precious and she still have a long way to go! She better stayed wise and yed it safe! Caroline thought.


    She continuously pondered as if she was holding onto her only lifeline and did not dare to let it go.


    Nichs was utterly speechless right as he nced over to Caroline. He did not go to the office directly, instead he went around to the bathroom at the back.


    Chapter 669 1


    "Haha...Youngdy, the female restroom is next door. This is the male restroom."


    "I''m sorry, I''m sorry!"


    In an instant, Caroline had goosebumps all over herself. The man in front of her emitted a flowery scent of perfume and he even had make-up on. Her ears were immediately flushed right as she noticed the sign on the door. In the blink of an eye, she turned around and dashed away.


    Nichs smoked a cigarette as he hid for a while in the washroom.


    Presuming that the youngdy no longer had any patience to wait for him, Nichs then washed his hands and tidied himself up before he slowly walked out. As soon as he came out of the corridor, he saw a pitiful little figure that had curled up and leaned against the corner of the wall. To his surprise, her wrist was pulled by a man.


    "Let''s go! I''ll take you out for supper! I''ll even buy you some branded..."


    "Stop pulling me! I don''t know you at all! I''m not leaving! Go away and stop pulling me..." Chapter 669 3


    What a troublemaker! He thought.


    Nichs closed his eyes as he coughed. "Ahem!"


    As soon as she noticed her savior had arrived, she immediately stood up and pushed the man aside with all her might. Caroline then bolted behind Nichs as fast as she could and firmly held onto his clothes with her hand.Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    "Nick, please save me! Will you take me to Alicia''s ce? She''s my sister-inw! I''m scared and I don''t want to stay here any longer... I''ll do anything as long as you help me!"


    Out of the blue, Caroline burst into tears after she said that!


    In that instant, Nichs was shocked right as she mentioned Alicia. "Did she call Alicia her sister-inw? Then is she..."


    A member of the Clements family?


    Why hadn''t he heard of such a naive little girl in Clements family?


    As soon as he looked back to the other side again, the man was nowhere to be seen anymore. Turning around, Nichs then averted his eyes towards the woman in front of him. Her clothes were simple but elegant and the workmanship was indeed exquisite. He took out a handkerchief and handed it over to her.


    "That''s enough, you should stop crying! Are you a bucket? The Heaven Star Clubhouse is about to be flooded by you!"


    "Come with me!"


    Whether or not she had told the truth, but at that moment she had already mentioned Alicia''s name. Therefore, it was Nichs'' duty to protect her at all cost! He simply couldn''t just stand there and let her be. Shortly after, he escorted her to the private office at the back...
