Chapter 460 - Las Vegas (4) (1/2)

It was late in the evening when Sarah and Aiden returned to their hotel room.

Sarah was giddy from happiness. She would giggle and laugh randomly, and people they passed while on their way to their room thought that she had too much to drink.

”The haul for tonight was great!” Sarah exclaimed as they entered the room. ”Let's celebrate with some amazing room service! What should we get?” She took the menu and started picking things.

”Only great? I would use a bigger word for how much you won.” Aiden still had in his mind image of several waitresses following Sarah with briefcases full of chips after the game, so that they can count her winnings and deposit them to the account. Aiden observed that she didn't react to his comment. Sarah was happily twirling by herself through the room. Aiden grabbed her by the waist to stop her when she twirled nearby. ”What is the plan for tomorrow?”

Sarah was a bit dizzy, and she took few seconds to rest her head on his shoulder before responding. ”In the evening, we are going to another VIP room… I hope that by the time security conference ends we attract enough attention to qualify for that back room where all the goodies are.”

Last few hours he is thinking about the lunch invitation from the Indian man. If they go, that means they get to extend their Mr. and Mrs. play. He needs to find out if she plans to go… the invitation was extended to her. ”How about the plan during the day?”

”We will visit casinos. I have few more to say 'hello' to… those are the ones that banned me last time.” Sarah pouted for a second before returning to her happy mode and looking at the menu for room service. ”Come here… tell me what you want.”

Aiden was not happy that Sarah didn't address lunch for next day… but he will ask later. He can see that she is interested in ordering things.

…

Not long after, they freshened up, and an array of dishes was delivered to their room. Sarah was watching a movie on TV and eating strawberry ice cream.

Aiden joined her on the sofa and observed her wearing his white T-shirt. It was more than just few sizes bigger for her which was obvious based on the oversized opening around her neck… it showed a hint of her exquisite collarbones and extended to her cleavage. The fabric covered her bottom and a top portion of her thighs. Her bare long legs were curled up to the side, slightly under her body… he thought that Sarah never looked so inviting.

”Try this… it's very good.” Sarah was offering him the ice cream. She placed the spoon in his mouth. ”What do you say?”

He nodded. ”Good.” Aiden fidgeted for some time before speaking. He can't delay this any longer. ”What are we going to do for lunch tomorrow?”

Sarah didn't remove her sight from the TV. ”Whatever you want.”

”What about that man… who invited us for lunch.”

Sarah glanced at Aiden, ”Do you usually accept lunch invitations from strangers?” She obviously didn't plan on going.

Aiden felt that he should not give up easily. ”He didn't look like a simple person. Maybe we should not just dismiss him.”

”Oh?” Sarah wanted to tell him to drop the silly idea… but it seems that he is willing to go, and Sarah didn't have the heart just to deny him. ”If you are interested, look him up. His card is still in my purse.”

Aiden's face lit up. There is still hope.

It didn't take much time for Aiden to find information on Saurabh Patel. ”Look…” He showed his laptop to Sarah. ”He is a bigshot in real estate and software. And… he is one of the organizers for the security conference we are attending.”

”You are kidding!”

Aiden was happy that Sarah showed enthusiasm. 'The lunch is ON!' He did his best to look calm, handing her his laptop. ”No… see for yourself.”

”No need. I believe you.” She refused to take his laptop and her gaze went back to the TV.

But she still didn't say anything about the lunch. He needs to confirm. ”So… for tomorrow lunch…”

”You want to go?” Sarah could not believe how sheepish he looked. 'He must have some agenda… but I can't tell what it is.'
