Let's Get Married

MS Club?

Karl is familiar with the name. If Pehry’s Red Club is the most luxurious club in J City, then MS Club would be the highest spending club in the city.

Rex asks Lily to go look for him in that place? Seriously?

Just when Karl is about to say something about it, Rex hangs up immediately.

Listening to the busy tone from his phone, Karl raises his head and sees Lily’s anticipated expression. He feels defeated, “He hung up.”

“I knew it.” Lil isn’t surprised at all. If Rex is so easy-going, he wouldn’t have ghosted her. “He still refuses to see me?”

Karl replies in an awkward tone, “He has a dinner party in MS Club tonight.”

Lily knows about the place. The club was already popular five years ago before she left J City. What she didn’t expect is that the club is still making big money after five years.

Lily frowns when she thinks about the dark and noisy environment in the club but she pulls herself together and hides her worries, “Thank you, Karl.”

Karl waves his hands, “Don’t mention it. I didn’t help out much.”

He couldn’t hold back anymore. He reminds Lily, “There are all kinds of people in those clubs. Maybe you should wait for a day or two if you are not comfortable about going to those places. He would come looking for you when he couldn’t take it anymore.”

Lily shakes her head, “If it is about me, I would wait. Now that Adair is with him, I couldn’t.”

All mothers are the same. They wouldn’t feel safe or settled until their child is with them. If she really doesn’t care, she wouldn’t have come to Karl. Instead, she could have just asked Ryan to settle it for her.

She couldn’t wait. She wants to see her child as soon as possible.

Karl offers to buy Lily dinner after talking to her. However, Lily isn’t in the mood at all, so Karl doesn’t insist.

They walk out of the hotel lobby together. Karl’s car is parked right in front of the main entrance. Lily waves goodbye to Karl, “You go home first, Karl. Drive safe.”
