Avery was slightly surprised. She knew Rebecca wouldn't let her do lap dance to Evan. But she was surprised that Rebecca chose the man sitting across her.
The man looked back simultaneously and smiled aningfully. Avery felt her goosebumps were shivering.
What Rebecca got in store for her was certainly a difficult guy.
At the sa ti, all the attention landed on Avery. They were waiting for the good show. Rebecca asked a pregnant woman to do lap dance at...
The images in their minds were not comfortable at all. It certainly wasn't how lap dance was supposed to be. The audience might get horrified.
Avery got up without any hesitation. Andrew called her.
"Avery, are you serious?"
Avery threw her gold hair back and ward up with a hot dance. She swayed her waist softly and blossod like a flower.
The pub was in excitent. The n all stood up.
"Damn it, the pregnant woman's dance makes get hard."
So even whistled at Avery. She had her beautiful hair behind her ear, revealing half her gorgeous face. It was a face that would turn the world upside down. All the n were crazy about her.
Avery slowly walked to the man across her. The whistling stopped, and they all held their breath.
The man across Avery was Jas!
Jas was not moved at all. He drank the last bit left in his glass and threw it at Avery.
Avery moved to dodge it. The glass was right by her ears and fell on the wall. The broken pieces fell along the wall.
Others all shouted out as the glass fell down. Jas was cold-blooded to throw a glass at a pregnant woman.
Evan was already in a bad mood. Now he got even worse and gave off the icy vibe. He was about to co to Jas when soone barged in.
He ca to Jas as fast as he could and said.
"Your highness, we captured a man who broke into your residence."
Jas frowned.
"Do you keep him alive?"
"Yeah. We've imprisoned and tortured him. But he wouldn't confess who sent him and what for."
Jas stood up. The bodyguard knew it was serious. Jas must want to interrogate him. So he moved aside to give Jas his way.
After Jas left, the Truth and Dare that was ant to keep him were finished. Avery still stood in the middle of the pub and looked back at Andrew. He still sat on the couch. Jamie stood next to him and was hearing what Andrew told him.
Soon Jamie left.
Avery started to have bad feelings. Was Andrew's man captured?
Rebecca shared the sa concern. Her look turned imdiately after what the bodyguard said. She no longer had the mood to watch Avery's lap dance. So she turned at Evan.
"Evan, I'm tired. Let's go back."
Jas left. Now Rebecca wanted to leave too. Others knew there was no point staying and left too.
Avery followed Andrew back to his room. They were both in low spirits because of what happened.
The second Jamie hung up, Avery asked.
"How's it going? Any news?"
Jamies shook his head. No news suggested that it was probably Andrew's man that was captured.
They even kept him alive to torture the brain out of him. Once he told them everything, the plan would be ruined. They would be in a passive position.
Plus, Jas had been looking for an excuse to take Andrew.
"Are you frightened?" Andrew sat down on the couch. He had his hands on his knees. His look was terrible. But he started comforting Avery.
"My guys wouldn't rat out."
Avery held her hands on her chest, leaned against the couch, and didn't answer. She couldn't be reassured. After all, they were at the presidential house.
"If my guy betrays , you don't have to mind ."
Andrew was not afraid of the worst. He was only concerned that Avery would do sothing stupid to put herself in harm.
"Even they didn't rat out, and we have to leave here as soon as possible."
Under the circumstances, Avery couldn't ask for more. She couldn't afford to lose Andrew over the drugs.
Andrew nodded.
"I've done so study. There is a forbidden zone in the backyard of the presidential house. As long as we get there, help will wait. But we can't leave today. Jas must send more security."
"How about Jessica?"
Andrew didn't even ntion Jessica once. So he didn't consider Jessica at all. Did he plan to leave her?
Now Andrew was silent. The whole room got silent soon. It was awfully quiet that Avery could hear Andrew's breath.
Andrew's silence was his answer.
It was a tough choice.
"I an it. If nothing happens today, I know how to save Jessica."
***
At Jas's residence.
All the help was rounded in the hall. The housekeeper was interrogating. Anyone who failed to provide an alibi was taken to the dungeon for further questioning.
They would rather kill a thousand in vain than letting the guilty one run.
The housekeep whipped more at the maid's body, seeing Jas. The howling was horrible.
"Your highness, please. It's not . I'm innocent. I don't know anything."
"I went to the bamboo grove. The bodyguard at the princess's residence wanted to see . I didn't do anything!"
Jas walked right in his bedroom with an icy look. Jessica had to follow him. The pressure around him was so low. Jessica felt she would enter the bottomless pit at any ti. She held her breath to make herself invisible. Or she would beco the victim of his wrath.
Jas stopped in front of his room. It was modern and tal style at first look. Every piece of furniture was in its own place. Nothing seed to be moved. But if one took a closer look
Still, nothing was touched.
From the mont Jas ca in, he set his eyes on the oil painting above his bed. Nothing seed to be touched apart from the painting. It was about 10 degrees away from where it usually was hanged.
