Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia) novel Chapter 669

What other choices did Caroline have? Frederick would probably think that she was messing around and she couldn't call her father or Levi either! If she did, then wouldn't her entire family find out about it?

By that time, she would be subjected to her family's rules! Her parents were not as open-minded as her Aunt Clements. There was a rule in her household stating that she wasn't allowed to go to entertainment places alone. Besides that, she even needed to inform her parents before going to her friend's party!

If her family discovered that she had come here alone and was almost caught up in an incident, the punishment for her actions would have been inevitable! Caroline bit her lips in horror at the memory of her brother who was whipped until his skin was torn.

Caroline wasn't twenty-five yet! In her family, she was not even of age to freely roam in and out of a place like the nightclub!

What should she do? Who could guarantee her safety without selling her out to her family? Caroline thought to herself.

Caroline was on tenterhooks as she began to frown. With her condition then, it was impossible to hide the truth from her family if she chose to go home!

While drinking his glass of whiskey, Nicholas also inquired about the present state of the club. Concurrently, he did not take his eyes off the troubled figure who was seated beside him.

Pushing his glass back, he got up and turned towards the aisle on the other side. Caroline dawdled after him and clutched his arms once again as if Nicholas was her lifesaver.

"Cm..."

"What do you think you're doing? I'll throw you out if you keep following me!"

He withdrew his hand and pivoted his body to the opposite side.

The next second, Caroline immediately rushed in front of him. She cupped his hands and begged him with a pleading look, "Um... Could you send me home?"

"Haha, what?"

Amused by her words, Nicholas chuckled as he asked, "Young lady, how old are you? Are you still a child?"

What on earth was going on inside that brain of hers? Earlier, Caroline was desperately searching for her brother, and now she was begging a stranger to send her home?

Caroline's face was flushed as she fiddled the hem of her dress in embarrassment.

"I'm an adult, so you better not look down on me! I'm, I'm just... a little scared! Or could you help me find my brother? Aren't you the boss here? Please help me out..."

Looking at her innocent eyes and serious expression, Nicholas was utterly clueless as to why her family had been so careless and allowed a young lady like her to venture into such a dangerous place like the nightclub.

Nicholas inadvertently gazed over at the cell phone in Caroline's hand. He couldn't help but squinted his eyes and asked, "Young lady, where did you come from? Would you like me to call 911 for you?"

Was she concealing her true intentions to approach him? Otherwise, why didn't she call her parents with her cell phone? Instead, she was begging him, a total stranger, to send her back! Was she really that dense? Wasn't she afraid that he might do something bad to her? Nicholas thought.

His grim tone was filled with an unruffled irony. Despite how foolish she was, Caroline was able to perceive the rejection in his words and the sense of him looking down on her. Discontented by his response, she then pursed her lips tightly.

Was he implying that she was stupid? He was the stupid one! Why would she need him if she could call them without a single concern? He was really an idiot! Caroline thought.

Despite so, she held her tongue and dared not to mention those thoughts. Right then, she was contemplating whether it was better to explain it to him or just ask him for a favor. Before Caroline could say anything, Nicholas had already turned around and left.

Caroline lifted her feet as she hurriedly chased after him "Hey..."

"Stop following me!"

Nicholas' cold voice was accompanied by a menacing gaze. At that moment, Caroline paused for a few seconds before she started following him again.

What a troublemaker! He thought.

Nicholas closed his eyes as he coughed. "Ahem!"

As soon as she noticed her savior had arrived, she immediately stood up and pushed the man aside with all her might. Caroline then bolted behind Nicholas as fast as she could and firmly held onto his clothes with her hand.

"Nick, please save me! Will you take me to Alicia's place? She's my sister-in-law! I'm scared and I don't want to stay here any longer... I'll do anything as long as you help me!"

Out of the blue, Caroline burst into tears after she said that!

In that instant, Nicholas was shocked right as she mentioned Alicia. "Did she call Alicia her sister-in-law? Then is she..."

A member of the Clements family?

Why hadn't he heard of such a naive little girl in Clements family?

As soon as he looked back to the other side again, the man was nowhere to be seen anymore. Turning around, Nicholas then averted his eyes towards the woman in front of him. Her clothes were simple but elegant and the workmanship was indeed exquisite. He took out a handkerchief and handed it over to her.

"That's enough, you should stop crying! Are you a bucket? The Heaven Star Clubhouse is about to be flooded by you!"

"Come with me!"

Whether or not she had told the truth, but at that moment she had already mentioned Alicia's name. Therefore, it was Nicholas' duty to protect her at all cost! He simply couldn't just stand there and let her be. Shortly after, he escorted her to the private office at the back...
