Let's Get Married novel Chapter 402

MS Club?

Karl is familiar with the name. If Pehry’s Red Club is the most luxurious club in J City, then MS Club would be the highest spending club in the city.

Rex asks Lily to go look for him in that place? Seriously?

Just when Karl is about to say something about it, Rex hangs up immediately.

Listening to the busy tone from his phone, Karl raises his head and sees Lily’s anticipated expression. He feels defeated, “He hung up.”

“I knew it.” Lil isn’t surprised at all. If Rex is so easy-going, he wouldn’t have ghosted her. “He still refuses to see me?”

Karl replies in an awkward tone, “He has a dinner party in MS Club tonight.”

Lily knows about the place. The club was already popular five years ago before she left J City. What she didn’t expect is that the club is still making big money after five years.

Lily frowns when she thinks about the dark and noisy environment in the club but she pulls herself together and hides her worries, “Thank you, Karl.”

Karl waves his hands, “Don’t mention it. I didn’t help out much.”

He couldn’t hold back anymore. He reminds Lily, “There are all kinds of people in those clubs. Maybe you should wait for a day or two if you are not comfortable about going to those places. He would come looking for you when he couldn’t take it anymore.”

Lily shakes her head, “If it is about me, I would wait. Now that Adair is with him, I couldn’t.”

All mothers are the same. They wouldn’t feel safe or settled until their child is with them. If she really doesn’t care, she wouldn’t have come to Karl. Instead, she could have just asked Ryan to settle it for her.

She couldn’t wait. She wants to see her child as soon as possible.

Karl offers to buy Lily dinner after talking to her. However, Lily isn’t in the mood at all, so Karl doesn’t insist.

They walk out of the hotel lobby together. Karl’s car is parked right in front of the main entrance. Lily waves goodbye to Karl, “You go home first, Karl. Drive safe.”

Karl takes a look at this slim and vulnerable woman in front of him. He opens his arm and gives her a big hug, “Hope to see you soon.”

Lily answers, “We will meet again very soon.”

The atmosphere gets rather oppressive. This is not what Karl wants. He gets in the car, adjusts his steering wheel and lowers his window, “I’m leaving now.”

Lily nods lightly, “Goodbye.”

As Karl drives his Land Rover away, his car is covered with sunshine and it gives the car a shiny topcoat. The car is definitely an eye-catching monster. Lily doesn’t move her sight from Karl’s car until he disappears from her view.

MS Club. The name of the club keeps recurring in her mind.

…

Nine o’clock at night, in front of MS Club. Lily doesn’t know what time Rex would come, so she waits for him at the sidewalk from the time the club starts operating.

She sits in her car and the window at the driver seat is lowered. Lily looks at the guests and passers-by at the main entrance and the staffs of the club in their black suit. Suddenly, she understands why some men like to smoke in their car.

People tend to panic when they are nervously waiting for something, and such panic couldn’t be controlled by adjusting one’s emotions. Therefore, the best way to relax is to smoke.

Too bad, Lily doesn’t have the habit of smoking. She couldn’t find any cigarette even after she searches her car inside out.

She waited for about one and a half-hour. Finally, she sees that familiar face when the clock strikes at 10.30 pm.

Two limos stop in front of the club. The manager of the club walks forward and open the car door for whoever is in the car. He acts in a totally different attitude as compared to before.

Next, a tall and lean figure comes out from the car. He is wearing a black shirt without a suit. The first two buttons on his shirt are open and his collarbone shows. His hair isn’t as neat as he usually is. His fringe and himself seems inadequately groomed.

He gives no reactions to Lily. Rex then speaks in a cold tone, “Who are you?”

Lily is pissed. Are you trying to put on an act? I will put on an act with you! “Mr Rex, don’t you remember me? I’m Lily.”

“No, I don’t recall any Lily,” Rex replies. He then walks past her and heads straight into the club.

Lily knows he did that on purpose. She feels embarrassed but she follows him into the club anyway. Her heels make a click-clack sound on the surface of the floor as she walks and it annoys Vivian very much.

They walk past the crowded dance floor and the public booths on the first floor. Rex heads straight to the VIP lounge on the second floor. Lily is stopped by the security guards at the staircase. “I’m sorry Ma’am, you are prohibited to enter the area.”

“…” Of all people, she is the only one who got stopped. It is obvious who ordered the security guards to do this.

Lily could only see Rex and his gang walks into the VIP lounge from where she is standing. Once the door of the lounge is closed, she couldn’t see anything anymore.

He asked her to come to MS Club but he pretended that he doesn’t know her? What is he trying to do?

Lily stands at the stairs and doesn’t know what to do. Suddenly, she sees a red couch beside the stairs. She has got an idea! Lily walks past the security guards and sits on the red couch.

He won’t let her go into the lounge, then she’ll sit here and wait for him.

The security guards let her be. Probably because of her pretty face and she didn’t give them a hard time just now.

Lily sits and waits on the couch for a pretty long time. The music is too loud that it almost makes her deaf. Every time the door of the lounge opens, she feels nervous but it isn’t him who opened the door.

Just wait. He is going to come out anyway. It’s just a matter of time.

Lily makes up her mind. As long as she could see Adair and settle the letter from the lawyer, everything else doesn’t matter.
