Upstairs, Quinn’s gaze was dazed after an intimate session with the scar-faced man. Her complexion was ruddy and glowing as she flung herself into the man’s arms. Her voice was also more charming.
“You didn’t do what you promised me.”
The man was smoking, and he chortled when he heard this.
“The people around Nicole Stanton are so powerful that I couldn’t find a chance to do it. I got someone to follow her once, but that guy was caught, beaten up, and arrested.”
Quinn immediately sobered up and calmly began to put on her clothes.
The man looked at her upset face and grabbed her hand.
“If it doesn’t work this time, we can try again next time.”
Quinn shook him off. “How do you plan to do it?”
“I can’t get close to her, but you can!”
The man looked at her and smiled sinisterly.
The smoke that came out of his mouth spilled on her face.
Quinn was slightly taken aback.
“Don’t worry. As long as you listen to me, it can happen without anyone noticing.”
The man comforted her and said with a smile.
Quinn nodded without hesitation.
The two cuddled for a while before they went out one after the other.
Selena’s body stiffened when she saw those two people. She quickly lowered her head and said to Eric, “They’re out.”
Eric did not raise his eyes as he was deliberately minimizing his presence.
He was already in a place that was not easily seen.
Thus, those two people could not see him.
Eric seemed unmoved.
He just pinched the stem of his wine glass slightly.
After the two people went out, there was a sudden gust of wind.
Before Quinn had time to say goodbye to the man, she saw more than a dozen bodyguards surrounding her.
Their expressions changed slightly.
The scar-faced man was tense for a moment. Seeing that the situation was awry, he turned around and wanted to run into the bar again so that he could take advantage of the chaos to escape.
As a result, there were already people waiting behind him.
He was hit in the head.
The scar-faced man widened his eyes and fell to the ground in an instant.
Quinn's face turned pale with fright as she saw the man, who was with her just now, collapse to the ground as if he was dead.
She looked at the dozen or so bodyguards in black in front of her and trembled all over.
“Who are you? Who sent you here? Do you know who I am? I’m Mrs. Ferguson! Did that b*tch Nicole send you here?”
Quinn revealed her identity indiscriminately and even expressed her doubts.
One of the bodyguards tied her hands, gagged her, and stuffed her into the car.
All of this took less than a minute.
The scar-faced man was stuffed into a car at the back by the rest of the bodyguards.
The night was quiet and lonely.
As the cold wind blew, some of the leaves from the trees fell off and spun to the ground.
The bar was still noisy and lively.
They were two completely different worlds.
Eric, who was in the booth, drank several glasses of wine without saying a word.
Not long after, his phone rang.
He picked it up.
The other party said something, then Eric hung up the phone and stood up.
Selena also stood up.
She wanted to say something, but she did not know what she could say.
After all, this kind of thing was not something that a word of comfort could solve.
Eric glanced at her with his dark and deep eyes.
“Thanks.”
After he finished speaking, he lifted his foot and walked out.
Selena pursed her lips. “I should be thanking you.”
However, Eric might not have heard these words because he had already walked away.
It did not matter.
Anyway, Selena owed him a lot of favors.
The cold wind was raging outside.
