He nodded slightly. Following which, Hudson raised his hand. The bodyguards on both sides withdrew their hands. Almost at the same time, when she lifted her feet, Carolien could not wait to rush inside.
The sound of kicking high heels was heard. Several men's eyes were drawn to her slender legs again unconsciously.
Feeling something, Carolien stopped. The next second, she squatted slightly then took off the shoes on her feet gracefully. She held them in her hands, and continued to move forward.
Once again, Elijah was also shocked by her actions. Her brows twitched ever so slightly.
Her white and tender fleshy feet stepped on the smooth floor, and her toes were ignited with bright red nail polish. She was sexy and cute. Without the support of high heels, she was still beautiful. Step by step, Carolien walked to Elijah.
Almost at the same time, Hudson raised his hand and the three of them all turned their backs.
Sitting back on the couch, Elijah's legs crossed lazily. His gaze swept past and his voice was cold to the point of making one shiver. "Mr. Nick sent you to find me?"
The words of the question were as gentle as a lie, but there was a hint of deterrence in them. It was obvious that the man did not believe them!
Carolien's heart thumped. Her legs were so weak that she almost collapsed to the ground. She swallowed her saliva and sweat broke out on her forehead. If she were to be thrown out now, would she be more embarrassed than the woman earlier?
After waiting for a long time, Elijah looked up and looked at her.
His deep voice was gentle, and his slightly hoarse tone was very sexy. As their eyes met, Carolien seemed to hear the sound of her little heart cracking.
"Didn't you hear me? Or are you mute?"
Elijah withdrew his gaze and raised his hand to take out a tissue. Intentionally or not, he wiped his clean and good-looking hand. He frowned slightly as if there was something dirty on it.
One look, one action. Carolien once again captured a fact: This man seemed to be a clean freak. He had not touched anything! Or, was he trying to express his dislike for her through this move?
Once again, she caught his impatient gaze. Without thinking too much, Carolien said quickly, "My name is Carolien Jones, the boss of Misty's Nightclub!"
After she finished, she was so nervous that she almost choked on her own saliva. What next? What should she say? Should she directly say that she wanted to seek his protection?
As he looked up, the eyes of Elijah fell on her again. He looked her up and down. So young?
The boss of a nightclub?
No wonder!
At this moment, Elijah began to believe that she might have known Nicholas or had something to do with him. However, why did she come to find him?
The few men looked at each other and exchanged words. They were almost lined up in a row. Their gazes all fell on Carolien and then focused on her bare feet.
After getting up, he gave the woman beside him a sidelong look. Elijah's hand reached out, and with a 'clang' sound, he said, "Your mouth is foul!"
Following which, under Hudson's guidance, several men took their seats one after another. They stood there in a daze. Carolien did not know whether to leave or not. When she saw the group of people sitting down, she squeezed herself to one side and blushed under Hudson's gaze. She crouched down and put on her shoes.
She was already very eye-catching. On this day, in order to attract the attention of Elijah, she had even dressed up. Even her clothes were a glaring red. She was in a good-looking style. At this moment, all the effects came out. All eyes fell on her. Both men and women's enthusiastic gazes almost burned her on the spot.
The few of them squeezed together, and the sofa was almost full. Only the one next to Elijah was still a little empty, but Carolien did not have the guts. She twirled her small hands and moved to his side. She wished she could shrink herself into a pile of dust and be immediately blown far away by the wind.
She didn't expect so many people to come here. Although it relieved her trouble for a while, it pushed her to a bigger dilemma. Everyone's eyes were too obvious, and they stared at her, making it impossible for her to escape.
"What's the name of the beautiful young lady? Sit down, why are you standing? We are all Elijah's brothers. Don't mind us!" Patting his chest, he introduced himself.
"I am Aydin Holmes! This is Alfred, Lukas, Belle, Macey, our female companion..."
Embarrassingly, the corner of Carolien's mouth twitched. She subconsciously looked at Elijah and then thought of something. She quickly took a step forward and tilted her body. She then sat casually and elegantly on the edge of the sofa beside Elijah. Her beautiful legs naturally crossed and she spoke in a natural and graceful manner.
"I'm Carolien! Hi! Nice to meet you!"
