The President’s Mistake A Tale of Love and Regret novel Chapter 326

Nathaniel, known for his unpredictable and ruthless nature, exuded a sense of menace. He took a deep breath and sat back on the sofa.

Hudson, who had dealt with the bodyguards outside, entered the box and approached the terrified singer. She trembled in her short leather skirt, visibly frightened.

Hudson approached her with a reassuring smile, gently wiping away her tears, and steadied the microphone she was about to drop.

"Don’t be afraid," Hudson said kindly. "Keep singing. This is Mr. Nathaniel’s tip for you. Choose something more soothing. Love songs are a bit clichéd."

A generous amount of money was slipped into the girl’s low-cut skirt. The sight of the cash eased her fear, and she quickly stowed it in her bag.

The music started again, "To Viceroy" by Mac DeMarco, filling the box with its soothing melody.

Red Shift’s reputation in Saeville’s entertainment scene was due to its exclusive selection of high-caliber hostesses. They were highly educated, sophisticated, or possessed striking beauty, making the establishment a favorite among the city’s elite.

As the singer’s voice filled the room, Nathaniel’s gaze remained fixed on Frey. He wrapped his arms around her waist, his grip firm and almost possessive.
