Chapter 919
Serena waited for the band patiently and didn't mind being left alone by Nisse.
The atmosphere became lively before the band showed up.
Nisse approached his rich friends including Britishers and ethnic Chinese. They were enthusiastic though with different skin colors.
"Hi, Nisse, that girl is not bad. Is she your new girlfriend?"
"No, a friend. Take her here to have fun," Nisse said honestly.
"A friend? Well, you call her a friend before having s*x and a girlfriend after that."
All of a sudden, the group burst into laughter. They were Nisse's friends. Nisse had met all kinds of women, so he had many ex-girlfriends.
"You know what, she is the girlfriend of Jeremy and works in his company." Nisse relished the cocktail.
"Jeremy? That guy with green eyes? I asked him out several times but was refused."
Rich men like them liked cliques. Avery hanged out with them for a short time when he first arrived in this country.
They were glad to have Avery in their group, but he refused to join them.
After that, they gave up Avery.
"It is him. He refused us for this little girl."
"Tsk, let's go have a look at Jeremy's girlfriend." They walked to Serena with malicious intentions.
"Serena, these are my friends. They came over to say hello to you." Nisse smiled modestly.
Serena was not a people person, and it was a fresh experience for her to encounter so many men at one time.
She should have refused this social engagement if not for the project.
"Nice to meet you." She got up to greet the strangers.
"You are beautiful! It is said that you are Jeremy's girlfriend, aren't you?" One man asked.
Serena nodded, "Yes, are you his friends?"
"Of course, we are his good friends. He hangs out with us," one of them lied.
Serena didn't like these men. And she saw a lot during her growing up.
Young men brought up in wealthy families preferred a depraved life.
These men dressed luxurily made Serena feel bad.
She didn't want to entangle with them and felt sure that Avery wouldn't make friends with them.
"Really?" She didn't nail the lie to the counter. There were no men in the world knowing Avery better than her.
Serena would not take their words seriously to doubt Avery.
"Come on, little beauty, I'd like to propose a toast to you."
Serena was not a good drinker. She seldom drank and sipped a mouthful at festivals only.
There were in the bar many kinds of cocktails with different degrees. It was her first visit to bars, and she knew nothing about it.
She came for her idols but ran into these strangers.
"No, thanks. I don't drink." She refused directly. There wouldn't be a second meeting with these men, so Serena had no mood to please them at her own expense.
"Nisse, see, your little friend refused to drink with us." The man complained to Nisse instead of reproaching Serena.
Nisse looked perplexed, "Serena, they are my friends. The alcohol content is low. Why don't you take a sip?"
She did not want to offend Nisse for the project.
"Well, it is for you." She took a gulp of the cocktail before her.
She felt that her throat got burned. This cocktail was completely different from the red wines she had at home.
She coughed fiercely for drinking too fast. The cough made things worse, and she felt fire in her throat.
"Little beauty, good to meet you. Please."
Serena learned from this experience that one either refused or drank all.
She drank one glass after another to please Nisse.
When there seemed to no end to this farce, Serena put on her guard, "Excuse me, may I use the bathroom?"
"Serena, are you all right? Are you
drunk? Let me help you to the bathroom." Nisse acted gentlemanly all the way, but Serena already saw through what was behind his humble smile.
He didn't kill one by one stab but cut him in pieces.
A tiny wound at first grew to a gash when one got absent-minded.
She felt that Nisse was up to no good.
"No, I, I can go by myself. Be right back!" Serena was drunk but still kept a clear mind. She didn't dare to relax. She should seek help now, as these men knew that she was drunk. She stumbled to the bathroom and saw someone following her out of the corner of her eye. Serena didn't know what they wanted. She already sent a message to Avery but got no reply at all. Avery in a social engagement missed Serena's message for going to the bathroom.
Serena was nervous. Avery was all she got in the UK!
Suddenly, one name popped up in her mind, Kieran Burns!Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
That man following her to England had invited her for a afternoon tea this morning.
"Kieran." She sent Kieran a message instantly.
The response came quickly, "My dear Serena, I received a message from you! Is the sun going to rise from the west tomorrow?"
"Help!" Serena gave a brief introduction of her situation and shared her location with Kieran.
The reply was short, "Arrive in twenty minutes.
Hold on!"
Someone knocked at the door when
Serena got the last reply from Kieran. She was a date of those men. Serena's heart pounded ferociously. 'Kieran said he needed twenty minutes!'
She pretended to vomit and kept flushing the toilet. As time went by, the woman waiting outside lost her patience and kept knocking at the door Bursting the door open would be her next move.
Serena had to come out from the compartment. She washed her face and her hands slowly to buy time.
