Ryan took Carrie to another private room.
In the private room, a few escorts were drinking with three rich young men, Ryanâs friends in Savrow.
When Carrie saw these strangers hugging each other, her face turned red like a tomato. She lowered
her head so much that she resembled an ostrich sticking its head in the sand. Ryan pulled her into the
room.
As soon as Ryan led her in, his friends wolf-whistled and cheered.
âOoh! Hi, Mrs. Hoffman. Youâre definitely young and promising for being able to take down our brother!â
Carrie panicked. Her face turned red
âShut up! This isâ¦â
Just as Ryan was about to introduce Carrie as Gregory Salvadorâs youngest daughter, he suddenly
remembered what Justin told him and quickly changed his tune. âThis is my sister. You bastards better
get your mind out of the gutter!â
âRyan, your little ladyâs teddy bear is quite expensive. Free consumption at ACE for one year is a lot!
Itâs at least hundreds of thousands of dollars, or even millions if they come every day. Youâre really
generous just to find a teddy bear for her. With that money, you can probably buy a tonne of teddy
bears.â
Ryanâs friends did not believe that Ryan and Carrie were not in a relationship.
There were countless women around Ryan, but he would not treat just anyone so generously. Thus,
they concluded that Ryan must like Carrie.
âShe wants that bear, given to her by my first love. It means so much to the both of us, so what do you
know?â Ryan rolled his eyes. He felt that his friends were insufferable.
âFirst love? Are you talking about my sister-in-law?â Carrie stared at him in shock.
âYes, I used to like your ex-sister-in-law. Bella was my first love.â Ryan smiled and admitted it frankly.
He had fallen in love with Bella. Even though Bella rejected him harshly, he felt honored to have loved
such an outstanding woman.
Even if he died, he would have this written on a monument.
As a result, Carrie screamed in horror. âNo, no, no! You canât like my sister-in-law! My sister-in-law
belongs to my second brother! No one is allowed to steal her from my second brother!â
âIâ¦â
âArenât you friends with my second brother? How can you steal his wife?!â
Carrie showed a righteous expression on her face and clenched her fists tightly. âMy brother will feel
sad and betrayed if you steal his wife. If you want to take my sister-in-law away from me, I wonât be
friends with you anymore!â
Carrie could not think of a way to threaten this man, so she said something childish and ridiculous.
There was silence in the room before everyone burst into laughter.
Carrie suddenly blushed. She curled her toes and pinched the corners of her shirt shyly.
Ryan also did not know whether to laugh or cry. It was obvious that Carrie was embarrassed, so he
suppressed his smile and turned to glare at everyone.
As if a pause button were pressed, everyone held their breaths and did not dare to make fun of Ryanâs
girl anymore.
âCarrie, I didnât expect that you have quite upright views.â
Ryan bent over slightly and stretched out his hand to rub the top of her head. Her hair was so soft. He
narrowed his eyes and said, âI know that youâre standing up for your second brother. Otherwise, might
have thought that you were a little sour.â
âAm I sour? I donât think I taste sourâ¦â Carrie said seriously.
Ryan was speechless.
He finally realized how different he and Carrie were.
However, she had successfully attracted his attention.
Everyone in ACE was busy trying to find a teddy bear for Carrie.
There was a glass door in the private room that opened out to a large terrace.
Ryan was drinking with his friends in the room, while Carrie stood alone on the terrace, nervously
grabbing the railing and praying that someone would find her beloved bear.
âFound it! I found it!â
At this point, a woman yelled and jumped on the stage, holding a teddy bear high above her head.
âWhat the hell?! Where the hell did you find it?!â
âIn the toilet flush tank, in the menâs bathroom!â
The men present subconsciously covered their crotches and thought,â Wow, this woman really gave her
all to find this bearâ¦â
Carrie jumped up with joy, like a child.
âOh, this is much faster than I thought. Sure enough, money does wonders. I guess they might even
smile if I ask them to eat their own shit.â
Ryan turned and walked into the terrace, holding a cigarette between his thin red lips. The orange fire
flickered on the bud of the cigarette.
âIâm going to get my teddy!â
Carrie was afraid of being alone with Ryan and wanted to run away again, but she was stopped by the
manâs strong body.
Ryan would not allow Carrie to run away from him again.
After the car accident that night, he secretly swore to himself that he would never let this little rabbit
escape the next time.
âDonât rush. Your toy is wet, so Iâll get my secretary to dry it for you before returning it to you.â
Carrie lowered her head, not daring to look into his eyes, which were so alluring. She just muttered, âT-
Thank youâ¦â
âCongratulations to this lady for winning the first prize! Your consumption at ACE will be free for one
year!â Yasmin smiled and took the bear from the womanâs hand.
The woman was ecstatic, and everyone was jealous.
ACE was the most expensive nightclub in Savrow. Free consumption for one year was a big deal, like
hitting the jackpot!
One would cry tears of joy at winning this prize.
Ryan narrowed his eyes and gestured toward Yasmin with his hand, which was holding the cigarette.
Yasmin understood what he meant and laughed loudly. âTo thank everyone for their hard work helping
Mr. Hoffmanâs sister find her teddy bear, Mr. Hoffman will settle everyoneâs tabs tonight!â
