Chapter 84 Listening To Gossip In The Restroom
The sound of the closing partition door was drowned out by the ambient music of the club, leaving Alexander with a rare look of surprise.
At that moment, Isabella had him pinned against the door, her entire body leaning into his. One hand was clasped over his mouth, while the other was making a shushing gesture.
Alexander’s eyes widened, his dark lashes quivered slightly. The intimidating aura of a high–ranking individual had completely dissipated. His eyes, which usually sparkled like the stars hidden within the night sky, were now vacant and unresisting. He helplessly stared at the person before him.
One could say that in that moment, Alexander was akin to a newly transformed male spirit, his allure both pure and tempting, radiating an indescribable magnetism.
Such a sight of Alexander only dazzled Isabella for a second, because in the next moment, gossip had conveniently presented itself.
Nothing was more important than gossip.
Excited, Isabella angled her head to peer through the door’s crack. In her eagerness. to get a better view, she pressed herself against Alexander, their bodies nearly touching in their close proximity.
Alexander’s pupils constricted, overwhelmed by a unique blend of alcohol and feminine scent that constantly wafted from Isabella’s body, causing an unnatural
blush to creep upon his face,
Isabella was dressed in a snug, comfortable tracksuit that day. Despite its casual nature, her well–proportioned figure was accentuated, her curves appearing alluring and graceful as she leaned into Alexander’s embrace. There was an air of effortless sensuality about her. Even through his shirt, he could feel the warmth radiating from her body.
This heat made Alexander feel stifled.
Feeling uneasy, he suddenly realized that his arm had somehow found its way around Isabella’s waist. This realization only made him even more tense.
Especially from Alexander’s perspective his gaze naturally followed the elegant

rested.
Crossing over the arm was yet another arc.
Feeling awkward, Alexander averted his gaze and lowered his arm, attempting to turn his head away from Isabella’s hand, which was pressed against his lips. However, due to her intense focus on peeking, Isabella didn’t lessen her grip at all. In the end, Alexander could only helplessly let Isabella have her way.
It wasn’t until this moment that Alexander fully grasped the reason behind Isabella’s tumultuous, excited emotions. They weren’t here in search of young hunks, but rather to join in the fun and catch up on the latest gossip.
At that moment, a woman of classic beauty with raven–black hair and porcelain. skin burst into the scene. She was dressed in a traditional gown and wore white. high–heeled shoes.
So this is Mirabelle? She’s indeed beautiful, a second–tier actress. I’ve seen some of her dramas. Her appearance is perfect for roles where she plays the pitiful, bullied, and helpless character, which is why she’s popular among the public. Even when she dated Hendrick, she wasn’t bashed by his fans. It seems she’s just like that in real life too.
Mirabelle was seen with her eyes red and swollen, her face showing a lost expression as if she couldn’t find her way. It seemed like she was on the verge of bursting into tears any second. She slowed her pace, starting to pace in circles on the spot.
Soon, the sound of a door being opened could be heard.
Startled, Mirabelle spun around like a frightened rabbit. “H–How could you come in here? This is the ladies‘ restroom,” she stammered.
As the other party advanced, Mirabelle kept retreating until she backed into a wall.
No, no… Even though this scene is quite entertaining, I really want to vent. With all the effort you put into backing away, if you really wanted to hide, you could have dashed into a bathroom stall, you know. It has a lock!
As if her thoughts were frozen, Mirabelle found herself cornered by a towering

This atmosphere… it’s so overly dramatic! You could set up a camera and start filming a soap opera right here. When exes meet, it’s always either a tearful confrontation or an awkward
They are part of some cliched soap opera, while we’re eavesdropping from the sidelines. What are we in? A spy drama?
Wait, is that all? No one else is coming?
Wait a minute, where are her current boyfriend and manager? Just letting the two of them go out alone like this, aren’t they afraid something might happen? Let me see…
Wait, Hendrick is taking care of Danielle? How did that happen?
So that’s how it is. Before Danielle arrives, Maverick responds to the enthusiastic Hendrick and the resistant Mirabelle with silence. He doesn’t even spare Mirabelle a glance. If he’s not interested, then why bother coming?
The corner of Alexander’s mouth twitched, unable to hold back his irritation. Right, you didn’t want to, so why come at all? He blamed Maverick for causing his entire family to mobilize.
Hendrick is persistent about the cooperation. Mirabelle seems to want to refuse Hendrick but is at a loss until Danielle arrives.
Seriously, what on earth is Hendrick thinking? Was he the one who sent the coordinates to Danielle? No way, dude, are you setting up a scene in hopes of drama?
