Get Back The Abandoned Luna (Scarlett and Alexander) novel Chapter 223

Chapter 223 The Issues

Scarlett

“So, may we ask what the two of you are doing here? Is there something we could do to help?” Arnold wiped his eyes, his lips were still raised as he looked at us.

I helplessly pointed to Kathleen. “She had something to say that’s why we come here.”

I was just dragged here for the so–called plan and fun. To ease my mind, to relax, and stop being overwhelmed by my thoughts which is the reason why she had planned for me to have fun and look at interesting things. So what’s interesting here?

To see Arnold and Nick dissect a corpse or make poison that could easily kill someone and use Von as the test subject?

I don’t know anymore and because I don’t know what’s going on with that head of hers, I couldn’t help but be curious too and I cannot deny that because of her, my emotions eased a little.

Although I worried about Lucien, I wasn’t thinking about the negative things about the what ifs questions that I know will only destroy me and would make me think negatively.

Which is why despite I could take off her hands from my wrist and stop her from dragging me to who knows where, I didn’t choose to do so.

Because I am looking forward to what her so–called ‘interesting‘ could offer.

“Oh? What could that be?” Arnold asked, his eyes held curiosity as he looked at Kathleen, awaiting her words. Kathleen smiled, pointing her fingers directly at Nick who was standing right beside Arnold and was just listening to our conversation out of curiosity.

When Kathleen pointed Nick, I wasn’t surprised by it since she already stated to me that she wanted to speak with him and help him solve his worries–which also intrigue me what kind of worry is it that she had to stepped in as if Nick alone couldn’t solve it.

Her, pointing her fingers at Nick, made Arnold and Nick both flabbergasted.

“Y…You… what do you mean by that?” Arnold was the one who recovered fast, clearing his throat as he asked.

Kathleen smiled, still pointing at Nick. “I want to invite him to a bar with us.”

“Huh?”

Huh?

My eyes widened, looking at Kathleen with my jaw dropped.

What the hell is this woman talking about? Didn’t we already say that we won’t drink and she won’t drink either?

So what in the world is this?

Instead of her watching me doing reckless things, it should be the other way around.

If I let her be and take my eyes off her, she would go around and drink alcohol!

Damn this alcoholic woman!

Even Arnold and Nick were taken back by her.

It wasn’t until Nick spoke. “I decline.”

Hearing this, I breathe a sigh in relief.

Nice job, Nick.`

Kathleen put down her fingers, looking at Nick who just declined. “I refuse your refusal. You are coming with us.”

Nick brows furrowed. “I declined.”

Chapter 223 The Issues

Kathleen didn’t back down. “Who would protect us if you’re not there? You don’t have to drink, just stand to guard us. Otherwise if you’re not there, we might get hit by the other Alphas or Betas or even Omegas.” Damn, what a clumsy lie.

I couldn’t help but roll my eyes.

I was about to open my mouth to retort when she clamped my lips, forcing me to shut my mouth as she glared at me–telling me with those eyes of hers that if I would say something right now, she would bite me.

I just sighed helplessly and shrugged my shoulder, already resigning to fate.

Is it too late to cut my ties with her and tell everyone that I don’t know this woman?

Kathleen turned her head at them, giving them a smile. “So, what can you say?”

Nick’s first thing to do was to look at Arnold as if he was asking for his permission and this didn’t escape from Kathleen’s eagle eyes.

“Why do you have to look at Arnold and ask for his permission to protect us?” Kathleen asked out of curiosity, looking at them with frown and desire to know.

Hearing this, both of them paused and Arnold couldn’t help but chuckle helplessly as he raised his head, looking up at Nick who couldn’t even care about what Kathleen had said as he reached out, patting his shoulder.

“Go on and make sure to enjoy too,” Arnold said.

Nick’s brows furrowed. “Will you be okay here?”

Arnold chuckled. “How could I not? Besides, I’m not alone here.”

He said while pointing Von who was unconscious.

My lips twitched.

As expected from Arnold.

Kathleen nodded her head and beckoned Nick. “See? He’ll be fine and besides the pack had been stable these days so you can rest assured.”

Before Nick could answer, she looked at Arnold. “We’ll invite you next time!”

Arnold smiled, nodding his head. “Sure! I’ll be waiting for your invitation next time.”

After he said that, he looked at Nick and nodded his head. “Go on and have fun with them.”

In the Nick, Nick was left with no other choice but to go along with us.

Even before we could leave the basement, Kathleen added as she waved her hands at Arnold. “Don’t worry, I will bring him back to you after I introduce him to someone. She’s pretty interested in Nick and she’s my good friend so I know her personality and you can be rest assured that she won’t treat him badly if ever she becomes his mate.”

Without waiting for Arnold to answer, leaving him speechless and was in disbelief by her words, Kathleen already dragged us out of the basement.

Also, what did she say?

Since when did she had other good friend other than me?

Is this the reason why she wants to go to the bar because that’s where her ‘good friend‘ was waiting for us–or should I say, waiting for Nick?

What is she up to now? Playing matchmaker despite knowing that Nick aren’t interested about it.

As expected, Nick took off his wrist that had been grabbed by Kathleen.

“You lied about having me to protect you two?” he asked, his voice were calm as he just wanted to confirm it. Why?”

Kathleen paused, looking at him in the eyes. “Just follow us. Let’s not talk here.”

Chapter 223 The Issues

“Decline that woman you said she wanted to meet me.” His voice hardened, no room to retort.

Kathleen sighed and didn’t say anything as she walked ahead, walking directly to the nearest bar, leaving us with no choice but to follow her at all.

After we were seated and already called the bartender for three juices which earned us a look from the crowd yet we couldn’t care less about it–except for Kathleen whose face was filled with disappointment.

Earlier she was about to order an alcohol, which I immediately cut her off and told the bartender to get us a juice to drink and we’ll double the price as long as theh won’t give us an alcohol which was why the bartender held back all what he wanted to say.

I suddenly felt helpless at this situation.

“So where is that good friend of yours?” I raised my brows, looking at Kathleen now that we’re seated.
