Serena was nervous as Jett sat right on the table that Nolan was hiding under and her whole body tensed up but she tried as much as possible not to show it on her face. Jett was looking around the room slowly, his eyes moving everywhere like he was searching for something, and Serena kept her arms crossed to make it look like she was calm.“Why did you even come all the way here and not to your office?” Jett asked suddenly, his eyes still moving around. “Also, I don’t think I’ve ever been to this part of the hotel before and even when dad was still working here, I never came here.”Serena took in a deep breath again before talking. She already knew what Jett was really here for and he was only trying to drag the conversation and pretend like he came to visit because he cared about her. “Are you sure you’re not here to ask me for money? Because I can tell that you’re trying to act like you want to talk to me about something when you don’t want to. You’re here for money right ?” she as

Nolan knew the panties belonged to Serena immediately but what he wondered was how it got to his pocket. He tried to remember how it got there but he could not. He was confused as he scratched his head to remember, his mind running back and forth with different questions, trying to catch even the smallest detail that could explain it but no matter how much he thought about it, nothing made sense.He was still lost in thought when Elizabeth cleared her throat, the sound deliberate and bringing him out of his thoughts suddenly. He hurriedly dropped his hand to the side, pretending as if he was not holding the panties and in a panic tried to hide it which made no sense because Elizabeth had already seen it, but his body acted before his mind, and he quickly stuffed it in his pocket, trying to cover his embarrassment.“I thought you said you had nothing to do with her,” Elizabeth said immediately, trying to sound like she wasn't bothered. “But here you are with her panties stuffed inside

Uncle Ken and his wife were taken aback and stared at Nolan with wide eyes when they heard what he asked them to do. It was as if they couldn’t believe their ears. Uncle Ken frowned and stepped forward. “Nolan, do you even know who we are? You’re actually asking us to get on our knees before you help us!? Really!? You’re forcing us to humiliate ourselves like that?” His voice was filled with disbelief.Nolan only chuckled to himself and shook his head slowly. “I don’t remember saying I’m forcing you, Uncle Ken. You didn’t force my aunt to kneel before you when she begged you for help, did you? Exactly, you didn’t and I’m not forcing you either. I just said that it depends on whether you want to do it or not. If you don’t, then that’s fine. You can walk away.” Uncle Ken’s wife bit her lips so tightly that they almost bled. She clenched her fists hard, her nails digging into her palm as she tried her best to control the anger burning inside her. She didn’t expect that Nolan would be so

“Please, I’m begging you. I heard that something is going on in the girls’ dormitory,” he whispered the last part, his voice dropping like he was saying something secretive.At that, Nolan’s hand paused slightly in midair and Gabriel opened one eye lazily, but neither of them looked too impressed.“If you want to see what’s happening, go alone,” Nolan said, setting his spoon down. “Why do you need us?”“I can’t!” Cole snapped immediately, shaking his head so hard that his hair bounced around his face.. “I don’t want to be alone, and if I go by myself, it won’t be fun..I need you both to come with me. Please, don’t make me beg again.”Nolan sighed heavily, still not interested. Gabriel rolled onto his side, groaning under his breath but Cole wasn’t giving up. He crouched down slightly, clapping his hands together like he was truly begging. “Please, I don’t want to miss out on this. I know something big is happening there, and I’ll regret it if I don’t see it. Please just come with me t

The other boys had also gotten down from the superbikes now, standing around Ethan like they were his bodyguards. Their faces were hard and serious as if they were protecting something very important, and the crowd kept pushing forward to see better. Ethan cleared his throat, making his voice loud so everyone could hear. “She’s here, please let her pass and come up to me,” he shouted, pointing to somewhere behind the crowd. Immediately, people started to turn their necks, trying to see who he was talking about. The whole crowd moved slowly, making space as a path opened, and all eyes moved in the same direction, curious to see the girl.From the way she was dressed, it was obvious this was not something she was expecting. Unlike Ethan who was standing there dressed expensively, showing off his wealth, she was only in her pajamas. Her hair was tied up in a messy bun as if she had just gotten out of bed, which also made it very clear she had no idea this would happen but even with her
