Love’s New Bloom By Simone Hastings
Chapter 55

Chapter 55 The Encounter in the Nightclub 

Ella lost her smile hearing what Milly said. 

She bolted to her feet and asked, “What the hell do you mean, Milly? Are you trying to set me against my husband? I told you a long time ago that he has no cousins. Are you trying to suggest that he’s having an affair?” 

Milly didn’t expect Ella to be so agitated and grew angry as well. “Ella, don’t vent your anger on me! You know what kind of a person your husband is!” 

She took her purse and headed out, then suddenly turned around and said, “Next time, mind your own goddamn business and tell your husband to behave, okay? To tell you the truth, your husband bought the roses for me, but I turned him down because I’m not interested in losers!” 

Milly threw the door open and stormed out, leaving Ella, who was choked with anger, behind. 

The woman slammed her hand on the table and shouted, “Does she think she’s fucking gorgeous just because she has had work done? And who would fucking believe nothing is going on between her and Mr. Jones? What a whore! She knew he has a girlfriend and still tried to seduce him…..” 

After Milly left the restaurant, she took a taxi to meet Mr. Jones. 

She and Mr. Jones were indeed only friends, but he hinted several times that he was not staying with his girlfriend and that Milly could visit him whenever she was bored. 

She naturally knew that Mr. Jones was interested in her. Seeing Dana get fired and Erin becoming the president’s assistant trainee, Milly felt tempted. 

To smoothen her career path in the company, she decided to seduce Mr. Jones. 

After all, Mr. Jones was the son of one of the senior board members of Frost Corporation, and Milly felt she must not give up 

the opportunity to leverage the relationship!  S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The first to leave the restaurant, Erin didn’t return to the villa but went to look for Holly. 

However, Holly had gone to her rich friend’s party at a nightclub, and she sent its location to Erin’s phone. 

Erin then hailed a taxi to go to that place. She was eager to discuss strategies with her to make Chandler hate her as quickly as possible. She thought that Holly might understand rich people better and know the way they think. 

Around half an hour later, she reached the nightclub called Minus. Holly told her before that the name carried the meaning that 

there would be no fun minus friends, beer, or dance. 

After Erin got off the taxi, she checked her eyes using the compact mirror. Fortunately, her eyes were not as puffy as before, and it would be too dark to see her face anyway in the nightclub. She smoothed her hair, then went in. 

When she did, a guy smoking in the dark saw her. 

Not pleased to see his ex–wife going inside the nightclub, lan imagined her embraced by strange men while dancing on the dance floor and grew angry. He tossed off his unfinished cigarette and strode inside.. 

Seeing lan going inside, another man stood where he was as a look of mixed feelings flashed across his eyes. 

Soon, an older man in his thirties who just parked the car came up from behind and put his arm around his shoulder, asking laughingly. “Caleb, what are you daydreaming about? Do you know that man that went inside just now?“. 

Wearing his casual clothes, Caleb regained his composure and said, “No. Let’s go in, Vince.” 

Vince smiled as he patted his shoulder. “I have half a bottle of good wine stored in the private room, so you can pour your heart out to me while we get drunk tonight! Don’t worry, my wife will come to pick us up, and later you can sleep in our guest room.”

Caleb threw him a glance and let out a faint smile. “I’ve got to thank your wife, then.” 

“Hey, don’t worry about it. You rarely ask me out for a drink anyway, so let’s just have fun, okay?” 

Erin was not quite used to the noisy nightclub. When she was dating lan, he never brought her to one or allowed her to go clubbing, not even after they were married. 

She looked at the dazzling dance floor, where young men and women danced wildly. Seemingly enjoying the moment or venting their frustrations, they had all kinds of expressions on their faces. 

She only stood for a while, but several young men walked out from the dance floor to flirt with and whistle at her. 

The girls under the throbbing lights were all heavily made up, and few would dare to go to nightclubs without makeup like Erin. 

Standing out from the rest, Erin’s beautiful face attracted the attention of the men around her. 

“Hey, miss, are you here alone?” 

“How about I buy you a drink, babe?” 

“You look a lot like my ex–girlfriend, you know?” 

“Hey, gorgeous, would you like to dance?” 

Erin was speechless. In less than five minutes, she had turned down the advance of more than ten men. 

Not in a hurry to look for Holly, she wanted to stop worrying about her trouble for the time being, and she was cheered up by the energetic music. 

When a stranger was about to grope Erin from behind, lan grabbed her arm and pulled her through the crowd. 

Erin initially resisted, but when she saw it was lan, she was stunned and followed him involuntarily. 

At the same time, lan’s strength wouldn’t allow her to stop in her path anyway, and he led Erin into a private room. 

When they got inside, the two female escorts stopped singing and looked toward them. 

Taking out two thousand dollars from his suit pocket, lan paid them and waved them off. The two ladies then left politely. 

Disgusted by what she saw, Erin pulled her arm off his before heading out. 

“Stop right there! Where the hell do you think you’re going? Are you still going back to the dance floor and letting the guys come on to you? Since when have you become such a whore? Are you just going to sleep around without care?” lan’s mocking 

gaze was filled with rage. 

He thought about how those men had leered at her and angrily wanted to smash their faces! 

Hearing that, Erin turned around and strode back to give lan a hard slap. 

lan could have dodged as he had the time. However, he thought about what he just said and subconsciously stopped himself 

from dodging. 

Not turning his face away, lan received a solid slap from Erin that made her hand sore with a burning sensation, even a bit. 

numb. 

Erin was taken aback. “He could have dodged it. Why didn’t he?” she thought. 

lan let out a cold chuckle as he saw her puzzled look, then grabbed her arm and made her sit on the sofa. He said, “Do you feel 

better now after slapping me?” 

When Erin threw him a cold glance without a word, lan continued, “I’m sorry for what I said earlier. I was just too upset…” 

His apology made Erin look at him again with a hint of bewilderment. 

Seeing her in disbelief, he chuckled, “What’s with that look? Back in college, you used to make me apologize all the time…”
