Chapter 42
Samuel followed Bradley’s gaze, his unile growing wider. “Oh my, this is the first time I’ve seen you staring at a woman. I’ve checked her out. She’s hot and pretty. Should I ask for her number for you?”
Bradley looked away, his face darkening as he headed toward the private room. “Not even if she’s free!”
The two entered the private room where Vera had already arrived, her face beaming. “Mr. Moore, Mr. Finley, it’s been a long time!”
Samuel leaned back on the sofa, crossing his legs casually. “Mr. Moore is a man of self–discipline. He wouldn’t come to a place like this alone if I were not around”
Vera replied with a flattering smile, “Mr. Finley, stop joking. This is a serious and nice place. We’ve got a few hot stuff recently. Shall I bring them over to keep you company for a while?”
Samuel immediately straightened up from the sofa. “Sure! Hurry up and bring them!”
“And what about you, Mr. Moore…” Vera looked toward Bradley, her tone less lively,
“You’ve got some guts, trying to find women for him. Don’t you know Mr. Moore is observing chastity for his beloved woman!” Samuel grinned at
Hearing this. Vera exited the private room tactfully
“Beloved woman? Are you drunk before even drinking?” Bradley questioned with a livid face,
Samuel looked at him sideways, retorning, “The one you had a one–night stand with, isn’t it? You’ve been single all these years. Aren’t you waiting for
Bradley deeply regretted how naive he was back then, pouring out everything to Samuel, which led to Samuel gossiping about him for five whole years
“Will your big mouth stop bringing this up every time we meet?” He frowned tightly
But Samuel became even more intrigued, pursuang “Senously, you can find a baby less than a month old, so how could a woman leave no trace at all Could she be just a figment of your imagination after a night of heavy drinking?”
Tm not that muddled. That night left Bradley utterly frustrated
He had also doubted whether the woman was just a dream, but the bloodstains on the sheets and the pendant proved she had been there
On the back of the pendant, was carved a line of text: 3.10. It was obvious that the woman’s birthday was August 16.
The knocking came soon after, and two young, preny girls entered with smales, carrying wine.
Samuel, a classic playboy, lit up at the sight of the girls and stood up to greet them, “Wow, you are as hot as Vera said. Come over here to me!”
The two girls greeted them with a “Good evening gentlemen‘ and sat down on either side of Samuel.
Bradley glanced at Samuel’s wandering hand on the girls thighs and let out a subtle sigh of helplessness,
He sipped his drink. Bored out of his mind listening to Samuel flirt with the girls, he wished he was home with his kid instead.
At the thought of Curtis, the image of Melissa giving up on herself in her uniform immediately came to his mind.
“Even if she hadn’t been accepted by the Parvati, the shouldn’t have degraded herself by working in such a place, he thought with tight brows.
A few hours ago, after a video call with Melissa, Curtis happily boasted to Bradley that his mom had a job how and would soon come to pick him
That little brat would probably be heartbroken if he knew his mom was working in such a place now” With this in mind, Bradley downed the hall glass of wine in one gulp, stood up, and headed outside.
Samuel, with an arm around each of the two girls, called after him. “Bro, leaving now? I haven’t had enough fun yet!”
“Get some air” Bradley didn’t even turn back as he replied
“The air is just fine in here, Samuel muttered in confusion.
Bradley didn’t know why, but the mere thought of Melissa working here made him farious. In such places, it was not uncommon for drunkards to get handay with the staff.
