Chapter 186 - 186: Getting Into Big Trouble
Before Calvin could ask what had happened, Serenity had already hung up on him.
But he could hear the urgency in her tone and did not dare to delay. He returned to the chess room and said to his father, “Dad, I have something to do.”
His father’s face darkened when he heard a woman’s voice on the phone earlier. “I didn’t care about you messing around all this time, but if anything happens, I won’t let you off!”
Calvin knew that his father had misunderstood and explained, “A friend. She’s just a friend.” Calvin started repeating himself when he saw that the doubt in his father’s eyes did not go away.
“Don’t fool me!” His father knew well what kind of character his son had. When had the gossip outside ever stopped?
But there was nothing Calvin could do when his father did not believe him. Since he had to leave urgently, Calvin picked up the car keys on the table and left. Just as he stepped out of the chess room, he heard his father say, “It’s time you end things with whoever you are meeting soon. In a few days, we’ll settle your marriage so that you won’t be running out all the time like this.”
Calvin felt a headache coming on.
A red luxury car screeched to a stop in front of the entrance of the Golden Sands Bay Entertainment Club. The brakes were quick and violent, attracting the attention of many onlookers.
The security guard in front of the clubhouse sighed and shook his head. It seemed that another rich playboy was driving a little too fast. Wasn’t he afraid of getting into a traffic accident?
This driver was a grown man and yet he was driving a red car. Didn’t he feel that it was inappropriate?
The people who came here to spend money were either rich or noble. So though they might have shared the same sentiments, they did not dare say or laugh out loud.
The car door opened and a pretty young woman got out. She looked a little anxious and looked left and right as if she was waiting for someone.
Two minutes later, a stylish Porsche stopped in front of her. The door opened and Calvin got out of the car, though not without complaints, “Miss, do you know how much trouble you’ve caused me with a phone call?”
He could already see his father telling him to get engaged and then ask his fiancee to discipline him. That was the headache that had been bugging him the entire driver over.
At this moment Serenity was not in the mood to care about his so-called ‘trouble’. She spread out a hand and said, “Where is it?”
Calvin took out a black card with gold edges from his wallet and handed it to her. She reached out to take it, but he retracted it. “Tell me what it is for first.”
She didn’t have time to explain so much to him so she grabbed his tie and pulled him closer to her. She leaned over to take the card from his hand and hurried into the clubhouse.
Serenity walked to the door and handed the card to the security guard who scanned it with a device. There was a beep and then she was allowed to enter.
Golden Sands Bay was a place where the good and the bad mixed. If a girl came to such a place alone and something happened to her here, John would definitely not let her off. Calvin Gilbert followed her in worriedly.
He was a regular here, and the security guards at the door knew him so no one stopped him even if he didn’t show his membership.
The atmosphere on the first floor of the clubhouse was high and lively. But Serenity knew this was not where she could find Sam. She went straight to the second floor and described Sam’s appearance and height to the waiter. The waiter shook his head and said that he had never seen this person before.
Her anxiety continued to grow and she decided to look into every room by herself. If she didn’t find the person she was looking for, she would apologize to the person in the private room and say that she had entered the wrong room.
Calvin caught up with her and saw her knocking on every room. He grabbed her arm.. “Are you crazy? Do you know what kind of people hang out here? Tell me what’s going on!”
