Chapter 90
Despite what he said earlier, Charlie moved even faster. Then, Charlie and Zion dashed out of the apartment and got into the car. They sped throughout their journey to the entrance of the nightclub
The owner was already waiting for them at the door. When he saw Charlie and Zion getting out of the car, he hastily bowed and stepped forward, saying, “Mr. Foster, Mr. Spencer, I’m keeping a close eye on them. They’re still here!”
Charlie paused in his tracks, asking, “So they’ve been in that private room with the male escorts all this
while, and they left the room?”
The owner smiled sheepishly.
People who were familiar with the context would know what was going on!
“Damn it!”
Charlie cursed before hastily walking forward. As he walked, he asked, “Which room is it?”
“This one!”
The owner was about to open the door for Charlie, but Charlie kicked open the door in an instant.
In the room, several men were drinking as they sat around Maeve and Lyra. Surrounded by men younger than them, the two women had drunk so much that their faces were flushed.
“Hey, isn’t that Charlie and my little brother?”
Lyra suddenly asked.
Maeve turned around. As expected, she saw the two men standing at the door.
They were looking at the scene in the room with foul expressions on their faces.
“Princesses, did you ask for these two as well?”
One of the male escorts asked Maeve in an extremely suggestive manner.
Maeve sobered up considerably. She didn’t know how to reply to that.
Charlie’s expression was foul. “Get out of here, all of you!”
When the male escorts saw the nightclub owner waving at them, they realized that something had gone
wrong. So, they hastily ran out.
“Hey, come back! Stay here a little longer! Are you not drinking anymore?”
Lyra was trying to get some of them to stay, but Charlie had already gone forward and held Lyra down. With a sullen look on his face, he said, “There must be something wrong with you. Why are you fooling around in a place like this?”
“The nerve! How dare you talk to me like that? I’m older than you!”

Lyra was drunk, so her pronunciations were quite slurred as well.
Charlie picked Lyra up. “Quit the nonsense! We’re going home!”
“Aw, you have such strong arms. I like it!”
Charlie’s expression was as foul as it could ever be.
When Maeve saw that, she wanted to stand up as well. However, because she had drunk some alcohol, she didn’t sense that anything was off while she was sitting, but when she stood up, she felt like the world was spinning. She lost balance and fell into Zion’s arms.
“Losing your balance now, huh?”
Zion’s voice was composed, and it was so calm that it made Maeve feel reassured somehow.
Maeve managed to regain her balance while leaning on Zion for support. “I just had a little too much to drink. I’m alright.”
Zion walked up before Maeve. Then, he bent his body into a half crouch. “Get on.”
Maeve stared at Zion’s broad back. For a moment, she was stunned.
“It’s not your first time, so you don’t have to be shy.”
Maeve recalled the time when she was kidnapped by Devon. She had twisted her ankle, and Zion had carried her out on his back just like this.
Maeve stopped hesitating and climbed onto Zion’s back.
Zion said, “I think you’ll have to limit your interactions with Lyra from now on.”
Maeve’s face was slightly red. It might be because she had a little too much to drink, but it could also be because the atmosphere in the nightclub was just too suggestive.
Charlie’s car reeked of alcohol.
“What do we do now? Where do we go? Do we send them home?”
After a long while, Charlie still didn’t know the destination he should set for the GPS.
Zion said calmly, “Let’s go to my place.”
Maeve raised her head and glanced at Zion. She had never gone to Zion’s house before.
