Becoming Alpha’s Personal Caretaker -
Chapter 137
Lauren's
POV
The staff stopped us and apologized with a smile, "I'm sorry, ladies, do you have invitations or memberships? If not, I'm afraid I can't let you in."
It was a big turnoff for Mila and she asked confusedly, "We can't even get into a bar without invitations or memberships?"
A woman with beautiful makeup walked past us and her body looked sexy in that tight miniskirt. Hearing what Mila said, the woman snorted with contempt and said to the staff condescendingly, "This is not a random shabby bar and it's not for some country bumpkins. Maybe you should tell them where the red light district is."
The woman strode past us with her head held high and the staff opened the door for her politely and invited her in as if he had known her before.
After a while, Mila realized what just happened and rolled her eyes, "If she walked away a second later, I was gonna test my new magic potions on her."
To be honest, I was also worried that she might do that. The purse she carried around with her didn't contain any makeup products but all kinds of potions. Just as I was about to comfort Mila, I saw the disdainful look on that mean woman's face when she tilted her head toward us, which really made us feel uncomfortable. I suddenly thought of something and handed a card to the staff from my purse.
"Can I use this here?" This was the card Victor gave me before we went out, though at first, I thought I didn't need this.
The staff took the card with both hands puzzledly but when he saw what it was, he immediately became very respectful. He instantly said with a hint of curiosity, "Of course. I'm sorry about what happened before. I didn't know that you're alpha's guest. It's my honor to serve you two beautiful ladies."
He was even more humble than he was to that woman before and gave me a flattering smile.
The staff led us into the bar and we walked right past that lady's spot. I could tell she was clearly shocked and disturbed when she saw us and didn't get why we got to be there. But her "manners" made her stay quiet instead of questioning the staff out loud. We ignored that woman and found a table under the staff's guidance.
"I thought this was some kind of hidden mystical shop that could attract your attention."
"Compare with a mystical shop, a bar at dusk attracts me more. Maybe I can find some good-looking guys here," Mila raised her eyebrows.
I took the glass of wine the waiter brought us and said, "That sounds more like a secret club than a bar."
Mila winked at me, "Is that why people need invitations to get in?"
Okay. When I heard that, this felt more like a fancy club for me.
I started looking around. Our table was quiet and comfortable and there weren't any noises or smoke. The lights were soft and dim and there weren't neon lights. Maybe it was set by the staff. This was more like a lounge. But then I remembered the staff told us that the dance floor was in another area.
Suddenly, we heard a sweet voice behind us, which caught my attention. It was the lady we met at the door. She waved at the woman who just came in and said, "Hey, Serena, where were you? What took you so long?"
I didn't hear what Serena said because this name got all my attention. I turned to look at her and it was a woman with curly hair, just as I expected.
"What? You know her?" asked Mila.
"Yeah," I did know her and she was there when Victor and I first met, "she's Victor's ex-fiancée."
She was the woman who couldn't wait to leave Victor when he got injured. I didn't like people of her kind and maybe it was because she was the same kind of person as Janice. But I didn't expect that I would meet Serena here and I didn't want to have anything to do with her. Mila rolled her eyes, "I did see a lot of annoying women before I can see any hot guys."
"Don't let them get into your head. If you really wanna see some good-looking men, why don't you go and check out the dance floor," I came back to my senses and smiled.
But what those two women said caught my attention again.
"Hey, have you heard that alpha Victor came back to the tribal center and brought a woman with him? Serena, do you know who that is?"
"I don't know, Lily. I have nothing to do with Victor now and I don't know what's going on with him. As for the woman..." Serena sneered disdainfully, "maybe she's just a nobody, or else we would've known who alpha Victor's girl is." They started laughing.
The woman named Lily said, "Yeah, maybe she's just a one-night thing for him. Plus, if Victor has to pick someone to marry, it has to be you. Though you're not engaged anymore, you're the perfect match for him, not some random bitch from a small tribe. But I heard that Victor doesn't like to be surrounded by those women, right? Why would he bring a woman with him?" "Though he's injured, alpha Victor's still a catch. What a pity."
"It's alright. I don't wanna take care of a crippled husband anyway and ...who knows if his wolf can still come back? A werewolf without his wolf is nothing but a..." Serena lowered her voice and mouthed the rest of the sentence as she picked up her glass of wine. But I could see from her lips that the word she didn't say out loud was "loser".
At that moment, I felt my blood rushing in my veins and my hands were clenching the glass harder. Images of what this woman said to Victor back then when she went to ask for an annulment flooded into my head and I was furious. As they were trying to control their laughter, I walked over to them.
And then their gasps echoed in the bar.
"Oh my god!!! What have you done!?" Serena screamed and got up, glaring at me in shock, "you...it's you!"
Yeah, I poured the wine in my hand down on Serena's head and put the glass down calmly, saying in a cold voice, "Nice to see you again, miss."
