Chapter 398
Carrie bumped around the ACE Club like a headless fly. She was
pulled around by drunken guests. Some men even harassed her. She
managed to avoid them, but they started yelling at her.
Everyone in Zoe’s private room watched this and laughed heartily. They found it more
amusing than any comedy.
“Hahahaha! This retard! She hasn’t changed one bit since she was in junior high school.
Has she stopped growing since then? Hahahaha!”
Zoe pointed at the screen and laughed wildly. “Bethany, I’m really
curious. Where did you hide that tattered bear?”
“I hid it in…”
Bethany laughed playfully and whispered something to Zoe.
After hearing this, Zoe burst out laughing.
“That’s creative of you! I doubt that dummy will be able to find that
tattered bear by tomorrow. Hahaha…”

Carrie looked through almost all the tables in the club. She had been

kicked so many times by the guests unintentionally that her arms and
calves were all bruised.
She stood there stupidly, hugging herself with trembling arms and looking at the strangers
in front of her who were casting strange looks at her. Her mind went blank. Her breathing
hitched and became
labored.
Suddenly, the lights in the club changed colors.
Colored confetti floated down like flowers in the spring.
Everyone cheered and swayed their bodies on the dance floor.
“Teddy… My teddy…”
Carrie was only thinking about her toy. She bent over and tried to find
the whereabouts of her teddy.
Suddenly, her little face, which was covered in sweat and tears,
bumped into a warm wall made of muscles.
The collision made her see stars. Her nose was sore and numb, and the tears that were
pricking at the corners of her eyes overflowed.
“Oh, I’m sorry…”
Carrie lowered her head and was about to run away when that moving
“wall” blocked her way.
“I’m really sorry, miss…”
“Carrie?!”
Carrie’s heart pounded rapidly. She covered her small nose and raised
her clear, doe-like eyes slowly.
What she saw next was Ryan’s deep and drunken gaze and thick eyebrows.
“I’m not dreaming, am I? Is it really you?”
The next second, Ryan widened his eyes. He suddenly opened his
arms wide-to-wrap Carrie in his embrace. His left arm tightened around her waist, and his
right hand clasped the back of her neck to
shield her protectively.
After all, the dance floor was too chaotic. These adrenaline -fueled people were wild and
might accidentally hurt her.
Carrie’s heartbeat was racing. Her trembling little hands pressed on
the hem of Ryan’s shirt.
She wanted to push him away, but she had felt scared all night. With him supporting her,
she wanted to hide in his arms for a while, even if
it was only for a few seconds…
Carrie thought, ‘This is wrong… He’s a good man, but he’s Zoe’s
brother.’
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen people on the dance floor saw the “Prince of Savrow”, they felt
as if they had seen a deity and gasped in surprise.
Ryan’s gorgeous face made countless men cry and countless women
scream.
His charming eyes were famous for being the sexiest ones in Savrow, driving people to
ecstasy and lust.
At this moment, those captivating eyes were staring at the girl in his
arms.
The luxuriant life and the hustle and bustle in the club seemed like
another world because Ryan and Carrie only focused on each other.
“Did you come here alone?” Ryan asked in a voice that only the two of
them could hear.
Carrie nodded, then shook her head.
“What happened? Tell me.” The man’s eyes darkened for a moment,
but his voice was gentle.
“I… Lost my teddy…”
Carrie did not want to speak at first, but when he asked, she could no
longer hold back her grievances and started crying.
“Ryan, my teddy is missing… Annie gave me that teddy… It’s my favorite teddy…”
