Nn’s and Xander’s car arrived almost at the same time.


    “We’re here!” Xander announced happily as La alighted from the car along with Nn.


    She stared at the open club which was buzzing with life. She shouldn’t havee here. La immediately began to reject her decision, she felt quite ufortable.


    She rubbed her hands as she inhaled sharply, she was dressed in a simple blue jumpsuit.


    “Come on in..” Xander invited as they all walked into the club. The music was loud and pulsing, and the lights were shing in every direction. People wereughing and dancing, and the whole ce was alive with energy. La was overwhelmed as she looked around. This was her first time visiting a club.


    She could tell this was no ordinary club, judging from the people she saw. They were all rich folks everywhere.


    Xander led them to a quiet corner and Nn went to sit down immediately, he brought out a packet of cigarettes from his pockets which he began to descend on.Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.


    Xander on the other hand got busy with a beautiful woman who had approached him.


    Now La felt alone, she shouldn’t havee here, she thought again, regretting her decision ofing here more than ever.


    She was about to take her seat when someone tapped her shoulders, La instantly turned to see who it was.


    “Regan!!” She called in surprise as her face became filled up with smiles. She genuinely felt delighted to see her.


    “La I knew it was you..” he said equally surprised to see La at a club. She was never a club’s person.


    “It’s so good to see you,” he said as they both hugged each other.


    “I didn’t hear from you again after the day we met at the grocery store..” he frowned. After Nn saw the message Regan sent and created a wrong impression out of it. Shepletely forgot to text him back and left the message unread.


    “I’m so sorry for not answering your message Regan..” she apologized, raising her voice a little as the music was overpowering their voices.


    “Apology not epted..” he stated. He was so worried for her and she didn’t even call back and when he called back her number never went through.


    “Please Regan, I’m sorry for not answering your messages. A lot was on my mind..” she begged.


    “By the way what are you doing at a club?” He grilled with squinted eyes, still very surprised to see her.


    “Well actually..” La cleared her throat as she scratched the back of her neck.


    “I came with a friend..” she informed.


    “What friend?” He asked as La hesitantly pointed at the direction Xander was. She didn’t dare point at Nn, she knew how irrational he could act.


    “Xander!!” Regan eximed in shock. That was a bigger surprise for him. When did La and Xander suddenly be friends?


    “Yes Xander,” she confirmed.


    “Wow, I never knew you both have gotten this close. Thest time I checked he’s supposed to be your boss at work..” Regan said. Both him and Xander were not too much like close friends. They were better off as cool friends. They were just cool with each other.


    “Well he’s more than a boss..” La began.


    “He’s like a friend to me. A very good friend..” she deadpanned.


    “I can see that,” he hummed, shaking his head. They must be so close to the point that he even invited La to a club and she agreed.


    “Okay, since you’re busy , let’s dance..” he suggested, shaking his body as La quickly waved him off.


    “No I can’t!” She declined.


    “Come in La, it’s just a dance!” He persuaded as he held her hand.


    “Come on, La, just dance!” Regan said, grabbing La’s hand and trying to pull her onto the dance floor.


    “I don’t want to dance, Regan!” La said, resisting Regan’s efforts.


    “Why not?” Regan said, a confused look on her face.


    La took a deep breath, trying to find the words to exin herself. “I just feel self-conscious, okay?” she uttered, feeling vulnerable.


    “I’m not a good dancer, and I don’t want to make a fool of myself.” Regan gave La a sympathetic look.


    “You don’t have to be a good dancer to have fun, La,” he assured, her voice soft and reassuring. “Just let yourself go and enjoy the music.”


    La looked at Regan, unsure if she could really do that. She would have tried but there was another problem restricting her, Nn.


    La took a deep breath and nodded. “Okay, fine,” she said, a small smile ying on her lips. Regan pped her hands together, a grin spreading across her face.


    “Yes!” she said.


    “Let’s start with something simple. Just move to the beat of the music. You don’t even have to dance, just let yourself feel the rhythm.” La nodded again, more confidently this time. She closed her eyes and focused on the sound of the music. At first, she just tapped her feet in time with the beat. But after a few minutes, La started to feel the music move through her body.


    She felt the beat in her chest, in her fingertips, and in her toes. She began to sway to the music, letting the rhythm take over. Regan watched, a proud smile on his face.


    “See, you’re doing great!” Regan eximed, his voice full of encouragement.


    La opened her eyes and met Regan’s gaze. “I think I’m starting to get the hang of it,” she said, a smile growing on her face. Regan nodded, and then something unexpected happened. The DJ started ying one of La’s favorite songs.


    “I love this song” La eximed happily and they both began to dance hand in hand.


    La felt her inhibitions melt away as the familiar beat of the song filled her ears. She and Regan moved together, their bodies in sync with the music. Theyughed and sang along, letting the music take control. La felt free, like she could do anything. She felt like she was flying, like she was on top of the world. Regan wasughing and dancing, and La couldn’t remember thest time she had felt so happy.


    Meanwhile at a corner Nn was seated at a corner watching them as his icy blue eyes darkened.
