After her rebirth

"That's right, her cousin found out."

"But it doesn't matter."

Juniper then explained, "This place has a real-name system. Although the card was recognized as not being my cousin's, the staff here discreetly called my cousin to confirm. If we were card thieves, they would have called the police immediately."

Everyone had to admire the composure of the staff here.

Even when facing people with questionable identities, they still maintained their service attitude.

After this incident, the three of them left the private room.

Everyone felt a bit tired recently, so they decided to enjoy a foot massage service.

As they walked into the lobby, it was bustling with people coming and going. Everyone had changed into loose clothing, chatting with each other, creating a lively

atmosphere.

Katniss felt much more at ease seeing the scene in front of her.

She had a preconceived notion about the club, thinking it was just more upscale in decoration, with better facilities and higher thresholds, but otherwise similar to the regular entertainment clubs she had been to.

"We should go..." Juniper pointed ahead, about to speak, but was interrupted by a sudden voice.

"If you don't make me feel good today, don't think about working here anymore."

It was a man's voice, with a hint of arrogance.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, and many curious onlookers gathered around.

Curiosity is human nature, and the three girls followed the crowd, squeezing through to see the scene unfold.

A man was speaking to a female staff member in front of him.

The staff member kept her head down, apologizing repeatedly, while the man, with a rogue demeanor, had his chin raised high, his eyes wandering around, and was leering artutler Érmare scarffinermer."

The female staff member was Ashley.

The three were puzzled as to why Ashley was working here as a staff member.

Thinking about her father's illness, it didn't seem too surprising.

At some point, someone had called the lobby manager, who came over and

apologized profusely, finally getting the man to let Ashley go.

When the man turned around, everyone got a good look at his face.

He was quite good-looking but didn't seem like a good person.

"Is it him?" Cecilia squinted her eyes with a hint of disdain, "He's really shameless. He bullies others just because his dad has some influence. It's disgusting."

Juniper was puzzled and asked quietly, "You know him?"

Cecilia rolled her eyes, looking unimpressed, "Yeah, he's a playboy from the Boleyn family."

Cecilia didn't want to say more.

After all, they were here to enjoy themselves and didn't want such people to ruin their mood.

The crowd dispersed, and Katniss exchanged a glance with Ashley.

Ashley was momentarily stunned, then gave a faint smile and left.

Katniss and her friends went for a massage and sauna, then had something to eat, ordering a few things to liven up the mood.

They had a great time.

Perhaps not holding their liquor well, even though they didn't drink much, Katniss felt a bit dizzy.

"Let's go out for some fresh air..."

The three of them staggered out, and coincidentally, they ran into the Boleyn family's playboy again, who was pestering Ashley.

Ashley's face was flushed, trying to remain polite, "Sir, you are drunk."

Hey there! Just a friendly reminder that if you're not reading this book on nel5s.com, you might be missing out on the complete story. Head over there to dive into the next chapter-it's all free!

"Bad girl, don't act like you don't know what you're doing. I know exactly what you women are thinking." He leaned closer to Ashley, his eyes glazed, "Trying to get my attention and then rejecting me... Heh, playing hard to get, I know this trick well."

Ashley knew reasoning with him was futile and tried to leave, but the man held her tightly.

Ashley struggled a few times, but the difference in strength between men and women was too great. Her voice turned cold, "Let go!"

The drunken playboy found Ashley even more alluring now. He forcefully pulled her into his arms, "Baby, heh... I like it... Come on... As long as you make me feel good tonight, you can name your price."

Katniss felt uncomfortable watching this.

If it weren't for Ashley's warning about Clara's actions last time, she wouldn't have been able to catch Clara's wrongdoing so quickly.

She owed Ashley a favor.

Katniss wanted to help but was pulled back into the private room by Cecilia, "Katniss, don't get involved."

Cecilia had mixed feelings about Ashley.

She didn't want to just stand by and watch a classmate get bullied, but the person in front of them was not someone they could afford to provoke.

"That guy is Delbert Loomis, the only son in his family, spoiled rotten." Cecilia's words were filled with disdain, "He uses all sorts of dirty tricks. The people around him are not decent... Getting involved with someone like him is very troublesome."noveldrama

Katniss lowered her head and didn't speak.

She knew Cecilia was right. If it were for a friend, she would naturally step in.

But Ashley didn't have much of a relationship with them.

Besides, Ashley had Lucas behind her, who could somewhat protect her.

However, the commotion outside grew louder.

Katniss felt uneasy.

Should she protect herself or step in to help?

"You bitch, how dare you hit me?" Delbert's incredulous voice came from outside.

Katniss opened the door to the private room and saw Delbert lifting his leg to kick Ashley, who was clutching her stomach and falling to the ground.

Katniss's face darkened.

She hated men who hit women the most.

Especially when they were in the wrong.

Ignoring Cecilia's attempts to stop her, Katniss grabbed a wine bottle from the table and walked out with determination.

Just as Delbert was about to continue his assault on Ashley, Katniss spoke coldly, "Try touching her again!"

Delbert, reeking of alcohol and full of anger, turned around and saw Katniss, his rage subsiding a bit. He glanced at Katniss, then at Ashley, and a lecherous smile appeared on his face.

"Tonight is worth it." His face was filled with lust, "Since you came to me, you both can serve me tonight."

Cecilia and Juniper, hearing the disgusting tone in his voice, couldn't stand it anymore. They might ignore Ashley.

But if it involved Katniss, they couldn't just stand by.

The two of them, imitating Katniss, grabbed wine bottles and looked ready to fight.

Katniss ignored Delbert's words, her face cold as she bypassed him to help Ashley, her voice gentle, "Are you okay?"

Ashley forced a smile, "I'm fine, nothing serious."

The two of them tried to leave, but Delbert wouldn't allow it.

Katniss's face was stern, her eyes sharp, "Move!"

Delbert, with a smirk, said, "What if I don't?"
