Chapter 920
On the other side, Nisse made a call in the corner of the bar.
"She is drunk now. What's next?"
"Don't your friends like her? Isn't she young and beautiful?"
"How evil is the woman blinded by jealousy! I do you a favor, and what will be my reward? Dear Amy."
As a playboy, Nisse had gone after Amy back in college, but Amy didn't agree to be his girlfriend.
Men always had an inexplicable obsession with women they couldn't get. Amy knew the price for such a favor.
"I'll wait for you at the hotel tonight."
"Great! That little girl seems yummy, so what do you say if I put off our date? Tonight..." There were greed and lust in Nisse's eyes.
"Don't tell me that you also fall for her!" Amy roared.
"Come on! I would like to have some fun with my friends around. You know that I cherish you so much that I can't do those tricks on you."
Amy knew those tricks popular among those rich playboys. These words made Amy feel better, though she still disliked that Nisse was interested in Serena. "Well, remember to send me some interesting photos."
"No problem. Wait for my good news." Nisse hung up the phone.
Amy was hilarious, 'What will Avery think of Serena if he sees those sluttish photos?'
'Little girl, you ask for trouble by yourself. It is a precious lesson in your life that men aren't trustworthy.'
Serena was dragged out by the woman who was waiting in the bathroom. Those men were like predators casting a greedy eye on their prey, Serena. "Little beauty, come on."
Nisse coveted Serena, who had a nice figure at a young age and fair and flawless skin.
"I can't drink anymore." Serena refused. She seemed delicate, touching, and seductive with water beads on her face.
Those men felt horny, 'How tempting!'
"Come on, one more shot! Aren't we friends?"
Serena drowned in those excuses and pretensions. The bar became boisterous due to the arrival of the band, so no one paid attention to what was happening to Serena.
Serena kept looking at the doorway, wishing that either Kieran or Avery would come to her rescue as soon as possible.
Noticing her move, Nisse tried every way to make Serena drink more. Out of anxiety, some men even gripped Serena to pour the wine into her mouth.
Spotting Kieran at the door, Serena swept away the wine bottles on the table to buy time and ran away. "Catch her."
Serena felt like stepping on the clouds because of the drink. She squeezed her way out of the crowd to avoid the chase. Kieran caught a sight of Serena in the chaos, "Serena, here."
Kieran pulled Serena into his arms by the hand when she came close enough. Serena felt relieved at that moment.
All those years passed, Serena felt this annoying face soothing for the first time.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
"Quick, let's go," Kieran weaved through the crowd while gripping Serena's hand.
Long after this event, Serena remembered this escape with the feeling that she was in elopement.
The male hand gripping her one seemed to be the whole world for her.
At the door, Serena saw the panic-stricken Avery running to her. Avery dashed to Serena the moment he read the message.
His arrival was five minutes later than that of Kieran, and these five minutes provided Kieran a chance to hold hand with Serena. "Serena..." This scene was like a thorn into Avery's heart.
He felt displeased even if his sense kept telling himself that he should be thankful to Kieran, who helped Serena out.
"Avery!" At the sight of Avery, Serena let go of Kieran's hand and ran toward him.
Kieran looked at his hand, where he still felt the warmth left by Serena.
'So...nothing changes?'
Avery held the drunken woman in his
arms tightly, "I'm sorry for being late.
I'm sorry, terribly sorry." Avery
apologized again and again and kissed Serena's hair. Content
Kieran, who was easy-going, looked grim at the moment, "Avery, if you can't protect her, others will be more than glad to do so."
Avery felt hurt by this censure and sorry to Serena,
"It's my bad. It won't happen again. Thanks for your help this time."
Serena was supposed to be tough but was frightened to death at this moment. With tears rolling down her face, Serena came out of Avery's arms. "Thank you, Kieran," she whined.
"Haha, the ice cube is crying! There, there. It is alright now." Kieran resumed his liveliness and tried to make Serena laugh with a grimace. Smiling through tears, Serena said, "Well, thanks."
Kieran rubbed her head, "Call me whenever there is a problem. I'll be on standby 24 hours a day. It is such bad luck to be your deskmate all my life! But no one is allowed to bully my deskmate."
Serena felt complex at this moment. Kieran had always been good to her, though the word like love never slipped from his mouth. Serena once asked him why, Kieran stuck to one answer, that was, they were deskmates.
"Thank you."
"Hmph, I thought my reward would be a feast. Look at your dirty face go home to cleanse yourself. I have to leave now, as my game will start at any minute. Let's keep in touch." Kieran left in a hurry. Content
Looking at the back of Kieran, Avery felt bad for his failure to protect Serena this time.
"Serena, let's go home." He held Serena in his arms, 'She must feel terrible now.'
"Okay, let's go home." Turning her gaze from Kieran's back to Avery, Serena got in Avery's car.
Shooting a glance at the bar, Avery looked malicious, 'No one can be sound and safe after hurting my baby!'
Standing in one corner, Kieran saw that the couple got in the car, and desolation took up his face.
'Serena, why didn't I know you earlier than him?'
'I love you, but I don't dare to tell you all these years. I am afraid that you will even deny me the qualification as your friend.'
'I will be a silent knight by your side. That's all I can do now.'
'My dear Serena, you must be happy. No one can hurt you in this world.'
Kieran turned back into the bar after the car left. The harmless smile disappeared from his face.
