Chapter 325
Paul glanced at Ian beside him, obviously concerned. “Miss…”
Sheena waved her hand, urging, “You may go.”
As soon as the two left, she received a call from Howard.
“Nana, Corey ran a thorough check and there’s no record in the Lawson family personnel files matching the appearance of this man.”
Sheena pressed her lips tightly, lost in thought.
Howard continued, “It could be that Ian is lying, or maybe this person is really good at hiding. In any case, you can’t fully trust the information, and be cautious with Ian.”
“Alright. Don’t worry, Howard. I know how to handle it.”
After hanging up, she took a sketchbook from the drawer, flipped to the page with the portrait of the man in black, studied it carefully, and then immersed herself in work.
It was not until nearing the end of the workday that she took Ian to Eros Bar.
Ian drove, and Sheena sat in the back. The atmosphere inside the car was quiet, with Ian occasionally glancing at her through the rearview mirror.
Sheena noticed his gaze and asked, “What do you want to say?”
you
Ian hesitated before saying, “Miss, I was sent here before to kill you. People around have always been suspicious of me. Why do you trust me? Aren’t you afraid I might actually harm you on the way tonight?”
Sheena smiled charmingly. “Since you’ve become mine, I’ll absolutely trust you. Besides, my martial arts foundation is not bad, and I believe I could handle you alone.”
Ian chuckled. She spoke candidly, and he quite liked it. They chatted casually until Ian suddenly teased her, “What if I conspired with them, and it’s not just me trying to kill you?”
Sheena’s eyes flashed with a cold light as she casually looked out the window.
“Would you?”
Before Ian could answer, they arrived at Eros Bar. Sheena instructed him to stay hidden unless needed, and she entered the bar alone.
As she wore a classy outfit today, Sheena appeared somewhat out of place among the bargoers. However, she paid no attention to these details and walked straight to the private room Nathaniel had reserved.
Along the corridor, she brushed past a tall man with sunglasses. She suddenly stopped in her tracks, her expression turning serious. Just a moment ago, she seemed to catch a glimpse of a mole beneath the sunglasses at the man’s temple, a familiar feature.
“Excuse me, sir.” She turned around, and her eyes sparkled when she looked at the man.
The man paused, turning slowly. Beneath the sunglasses, his nose was well–sculpted, and his overall features seemed handsome. He was tall and sturdy, giving the impression of being around 1.9 meters tall.
Seeing Sheena smiling at him, the man looked a bit puzzled. With a husky voice, he asked, ” Miss, are you calling me?”
Sheena gracefully smiled and took a couple of steps toward him,
how to get to VIP Room 69?”
sir. Could you tell me
The man’s expression remained unchanged. “I’m not familiar with this place. You can ask the staff for directions.”
“Judging by your accent, it seems you’re not a local from Farlem. Are you here for a vacation?” Sheena’s voice was soft and charming, her eyes tender as she struck up a conversation.
The man’s gaze met hers, still remaining a cold front. “If you’re asking for directions, find the staff. If it’s idle chatter, I have things to attend to. I’ll take my leave.”
