Chapter 413 A Pair Of Sisters

The man must have had too much to drink, as he casually draped his arm over Michelle’s shoulder.

As he spoke, the strong scent of alcohol wafted through the air. “Are you new here?”

Michelie, who was just a young woman who had come of age, instantly turned pale. She abruptly pulled the hand off her shoulder, her words a bit of a jumbled mess in her panic. “Please show some respect!”

Seeing the situation, Lysander quickly pulled her sister behind her for protection.

The man licked his teeth, his interest piqued as he looked at Lysander. He sized her up from head to toe. “This one works too, or… both of you together?”

Michelle was both frustrated and anxious. She tugged at Lysander, ready to leave. “Let’s go, sis. Ignore him,” she said.

“Oh, so you guys are a pair of sisters after all.”

The man seemed intrigued, quickening his pace to catch up. He stretched out his hand, blocking their path. “Are you two really sisters, though? You two don’t look alike at all,” he remarked.

Michelle scoffed. “What’s it to you if one of us takes after our dad and the other our mom?”

“Sure, of course. I was just asking. Why are you upset? You clearly look young… Is this your first time?”

Seeing the man’s gaze gradually becoming lecherous, his words taking a turn for the worse, Lysander subtly furrowed her brows. She took Michelle’s hand, preparing to leave from the other side.

But the man was relentless and pursued her again. “Why are you running? Let’s negotiate the price.”

No sooner had the words been spoken than another person emerged from the main entrance. He seemed. to be friends with the drunkard. With a jovial tone, he asked, “Horace, what are you up to now?”

The man known as Horace spread his hands nonchalantly and said in a roguish manner, “We’re discussing the price. They’re real sisters.”

“Really? I haven’t heard about it. Let me check them out.”

Originally, Lysander thought that she could just quickly drag Michelle out of there, avoiding any further trouble with the drunkard.

But now, another one had arrived, cornering them from both sides. She and Michelle were under siege, and escape was starting to seem less and less likely.

Moreover, the one who arrived later was clearly more sober than Horace. It was clear he hadn’t drunk much.

A drunkard and a sober adult man were simply not on the same level when it came to physical strength.

She could manage a drunkard, but she genuinely couldn’t resist a physically strong, mature man.

Michelle grew more frightened, clutching at her sleeve. “Lysander, what do we do now?”

“No… I won’t come here anymore.”

With a sigh, Lysander pulled out her phone, ready to make a call.

Horace took a step forward, swiftly snatching her phone from her grasp. “Calling for help, are you?”

“The police, Lysander said.

Horace chuckled. “You’re working at Skywatch, and you want to call the police for this?”

“Of course we should call the police. We’re customers, here for the karaoke. If we encounter danger, it’s only natural to alert the authorities.”

“Customers? Both of you?”

“Yes.”

Horace scoffed. “Right.”

Lysander calmly said, “Give me back my phone.”

The man furrowed his brows in irritation. “Name your price already. It’s getting dark. Quit beating around the bush. I’m losing my patience, and I’ve got urgent matters to attend to.”

Saying so, he was about to take action.

Suddenly, Michelle called out into the distance, “Josiah-”

Josiah and his group should have also concluded their affair, as they were currently heading out.

There were probably more than twenty people, and they were essentially all men.

Zane and Aiden were also present. Apart from Zane, generally, everyone had a pretty lady in their arms.

Josiah also had someone by his side–the same lady with red lips and curly hair.

Josiah casually placed his hands in his pockets, a woman clinging onto his arm. Upon hearing the heart- wrenching cries of Michelle, they all turned to look.

Michelle seemed to have spotted her savior, and she waved her hands frantically, “Brother–in–law! Brother–in–law, help me!”

Horace asked, “Missy, who are you calling out to?”

Pointing at Josiah, Michelle exclaimed, “Him! He’s my brother–in–law!”

Horace scoffed. “Enough, little sister, do you even know who he is before you go around claiming him ast your brother–in–law? That man is Mr. Josiah Guerra from Guerra Group. He’s not someone you can just casually claim as a relative.”

Michelle argued defiantly. “He’s my brother–in–law. You can ask him if you don’t believe me!”

Another man bluntly said. “Do you really think Mr. Guerra would let his wife be exploited? Do you take me for a fool?”

Michelle was on the verge of tears. “He… he is…”

Suddenly, Horace gave his companion a pat on the shoulder, “Who knows? Remember that incident from before? Mr. Guerra’s wife made a fool out of him, even had a child that wasn’t his. Maybe he couldn’t bear the humiliation, so he sent her away?”

Horace’s friend stroked his chin and clicked his tongue twice. If you put it that way, it’s not entirely. impossible. But… why did he send his sister–in–law here too?”

“Haha, those upper–crust folks sure do love their reputation,” he said, “Of course, when it comes to revenge, the harsher the better.”

“Ah, so you’re saying, she… she was really with Josiah? Now that does pique my interest. To have won Josiah’s heart, and then to have her own affairs, this woman does have some abilities…”

As they were speaking, Zane came running over.

“What’s going on?”

Lysander shook her head. “I suspect these two had a bit too much to drink. They must have mistaken us for the ladies at the karaoke lounge. No worries. I’ve found my sister. We’re about to leave.”

Zane cast a wary look at the two men.

Horace must have recognized Zane, as he immediately sobered up significantly and respectfully greeted, “Mr. Yarrow.”

Zane hummed in agreement. “One should know their surroundings before getting drunk. She’s a decent girl, not someone to accompany you for drinks. Please refrain from any disgraceful actions.”

Horace nodded repeatedly. “Yes, yes, yes.”

“Ms. Thorne, you should go ahead with your younger sister.”

Lysander nodded. “Thank you.”

She led Michelle away.

The conversation between the two people echoed from behind.

“Mr. Yarrow, was that really Mrs. Guerra, the wife of Mr. Guerra?”

“No.

“That girl was just now repeatedly calling Mr. Guerra ‘brother–in–law, so we thought…”

“Even if she wasn’t related to Josiah, she’s still a respectable woman. Do

Josiah, she’s still a respectable woman. Do you two lack common sense? There are plenty of women around, so why are you targeting those two?”

“Well, I thought I’ve stumbled upon a lovely pair of sisters… You know, what man wouldn’t be thrilled at that prospect?”

Michelle spat out vehemently. “Absolutely disgusting!”

Lysander hailed a taxi, first making sure Michelle On before she climbed in herself.

After closing the car door, she finally confirmed that they were safe.

“You’re not allowed to come to this kind of place again in the future, do you hear me?”

Michelle stuck out her tongue. “I’m sorry, Lysander. Can we keep this from Mom and Dad? They’ll definitely scold me again if they find out…”

Lysander let out a sigh, a hint of helplessness in her voice. “I can keep this from our parents, but you have to promise me—no more taking such risks. If no one had come to our rescue today, we both would have been in trouble.”

“Mmm, I won’t come here again in the future. I’ll look for other part–time jobs.” Michelle suddenly remembered something. “Lysander, was that guy just now a friend of your husband?”

“Yes. Lysander pondered, then shook her head, “In the future, don’t call him your brother–in–law

anymore.”

“Then? Who’s he to you now?”

“You can call him Mr. Guerra… Never mind, we probably won’t see each other again anyway.”
