Chapter 46 What Happened In The Private Room (Part One) (1/2)

Fiona, Ryan, and the rest of the group entered Le Bar and occupied a vacant booth. While waiting for their drinks to arrive, Sophia and Ella went to the dance floor, followed by Sam.

Only Ryan, Fiona, and Leona were left in their seats.

There was curiosity in her eyes as Fiona scanned the bar's interior. She observed the men and women dancing, the lively music, and the flickering lights.

”Enjoy your drinks,” the waiter said as he placed their orders on the table.

”Thank you,” Ryan said. He reached for a glass of juice and traded it with the wine in front of Fiona.

She took a few sips of juice before declaring, ”I think... I should go dance, too.” She was nowhere close to being a good dancer, but she thought that she could at least copy Sophia's moves.

”Don't go.” Ryan grabbed her hand as soon as she stood up. He was not unaware of the men in the room who had taken notice of Fiona's good looks. He tightened his grip as he thought about their ill intent. ”If you really want to dance, I'll go with you,” he said protectively.

Fiona's face immediately turned scarlet. ”Please let go of my hand, Ryan.”

”Someone will try to hook up with you if you go alone.” He slowly released his hold on her arm. ”I'm just worried about you.”

”Hey! Leona!” Fiona called out after her. But before she could follow her, Ryan grabbed her hand again. ”I'm worried about Leona,” she exclaimed.

Ryan cast a glance at Leona before looking away. There was seriousness in his voice when he said, ”I used to be nice to everyone, you know. But all of that's changed since I met you. Now, I no longer care about others. I just want to look after you.”

”Ryan...” Fiona called out with a frown. ”Are you drunk?”

Ryan laughed at himself. ”I guess I must be.”

Leona had rushed to the restroom with her head kept low that she bumped into a woman standing by the door. ”Ouch! What are you running from? Is someone trying to kill you?”

Looking up, Leona saw the face of a woman wearing heavy makeup. ”Cathy! I'm so sorry...”

”Huh? You know who I am?” It seem
