Chapter 51 She Could Only Beg Him
“Doctor, how is my dad?” Peyton’s heart was in her throat. She tightly pulled on her sleeve, afraid of hearing the words she least wanted to hear.
“Fortunately, he was discovered in time and rescued. Peytie, I have to let you know that your father was in great danger. You must find the top neurosurgeon Leo as soon as possible to perform a craniotomy on him, otherwise… the next time we will be powerless.‘
Peyton was very frustrated. She dreamed of finding Leo’s whereabouts.
However, she had no connections at all. Alwyn had helped her look for Leo before, but he was not found.
Upon seeing Kason being pushed out, he looked weak and had his eyes tightly closed. Peyton called out, “Dad.”
There was no response, and it was like a stone being thrown into a well.
Kason’s exposed hand was thin and aged. In just two short years, he had aged significantly.
There were needles left on the back of the hand. The skin on the back of the hand was loose, completely different from the big hand that used to hold Peyton and bring her home.
Peyton lay beside Kason and cried uncontrollably. She choked out, “Dad, can you wake up and look at me for a moment?”
No matter what Kason did to others, at least he never mistreated Peyton. Peyton couldn’t just sit by and do nothing about it.
Peyton had a vision in her mind of Nolan saying he could find Leo on the day she jumped off the building.
It was not surprising that Nolan was able to find Leo with his connections and wealth. If she had not been on the brink of death, Nolan would never have told her about it.
She was well aware that Nolan hated Kason and her, but for the sake of Kason, she had no other choice but to take this path.
A few days ago, she made the decision to cut ties with Nolan. She didn’t expect that she would have to go and beg him again so soon.
Peyton wiped away her tears and settled Kason. Through Lucian, she found out where Nolan was. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Peyton took a taxi to Silver Club.
The dancers wearing revealing clothes twisted their bodies seductively, and the atmosphere was very hot.
In every corner, many men and women were kissing ambiguously. The voices of people in the private rooms were loud, and everyone was drinking heavily.
The hustle and bustle had nothing to do with Peyton. She hurriedly walked straight towards the private room inside.
Nolan didn’t like this kind of place the most. Even if he wanted to hang out with his friends, he would choose a quiet place.
Under Lucian’s lead, Peyton pushed open the door of the private room.
This was a luxurious large room that could accommodate hundreds of people. Despite the many men and women inside, Peyton spotted Nolan in the crowd at first glance.
Nolan sat with his eyes closed, leaning against the leather seat. He was so quiet that he seemed out of place amidst the surrounding noise.
His sharp gaze was invisible, so it seemed like he wouldn’t harm anyone.
Next to him was a handsome man wearing gray home clothes. The man was barefoot and getting a foot massage. He had a furry eye mask hanging around his neck.
In front of others, it was either whisky or Champagne Armand de Brignac. Only in front of this man, it was a thermos.
Nolan treated this place as a hotel, while the man next to him treated it as a foot bath shop.
Peyton saw a woman dressed provocatively approach Nolan and boldly throw herself at him, attempting to kiss his lips.
A strong fragrance hit him in the face. Nolan woke up abruptly from his dream. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a pair of red lips.
Nolan instinctively pushed the woman in front of him away without
any mercy.
“Ah!” The woman screamed and fell in front of Peyton.
The mini skirt was lifted up, revealing the sexy thong inside, which made the men around whistle non– stop.
Peyton was uncomfortable in such situations.
She looked up in a panic, and her eyes met Nolan’s gaze directly.
Nolan’s eyes were calm. A hint of sarcasm flashed faintly from his
eyes.
Peyton thought to herself, “He only gave me the definition of playing hard to get. And yet, I came to see him so quickly. This just confirms the accusation.
“In his opinion, the last time I wanted to jump off the building was just a trick. What will he think this time?”
Peyton didn’t miss the message conveyed from Nolan’s eyes, but now Kason is in danger. She had no choice but to come to Nolan.
She knew that if she continued to move forward, she would only be humiliated by Nolan, but she had no way to retreat.
Others also noticed Peyton. Except for the man named Harley Moore next to Nolan, no one in the room knew she was Nolan’s ex–wife.
A woman with a hot figure looked Peyton up and down, then chewed gum and said teasingly, “Miss, you walked into the wrong room, didn’t you?”
When Peyton thought about the time when Kadence asked her to go bungee jumping before, Kadence joked that the girls nowadays only wear tank tops inside their jackets, while they wear both sweaters and warm clothes inside their jackets.
There were many girls in the private room, but only Peyton was wearing a thick down jacket, a knitted hat, and a scarf.
Peyton ignored the woman who was talking to her. She looked at Nolan and said, “Mr. Dalton, can you come with me to another place and talk for a few minutes?”
“Madam, the girl who is younger and prettier than you is even lying on the ground. Did you see it? Do you think your falling posture would look better than hers?” The woman mercilessly mocked Peyton.
Nolan looked at Peyton coldly and said, “Come here.
Upon hearing these words, the woman felt as if she had been slapped hard in the face. Peyton walked through the crowd under the gaze of everyone and stood next to Nolan.
Harley, who was getting a pedicure, looked very relaxed. Beads of sweat were dripping down his forehead.
Peyton thought to herself, “Harley still loves the healthy lifestyle as always.” The taste of mugwort covered the smell of alcohol and aromatherapy, which made Peyton feel more comfortable.
Harley took the initiative to greet Peyton, “Peyton, long time no see. Do you want to get a pedicure?”
This way of greeting was unusual. Peyton politely declined, “Mr. Moore, thank you for your kindness. I don’t need it.‘
་་
Harley immediately began to explain the benefits of getting a pedicure.
“Getting a pedicure can promote blood circulation and metabolism in the body, and it can also help with sleep, and reduce the risk of high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease. Your complexion doesn’t look good. You need to get more pedicures…”
Hearing Harley rambling on, Nolan interrupted him. He pulled the eye mask off Harley’s neck and impatiently said, “Go to sleep.
The people around were curious and staring at Peyton, wondering who he was. It seemed like Peyton was close to Harley and Nolan, but they didn’t know him.
Nolan sat in the middle with his legs slightly apart. He looked very imposing. He glanced at Peyton coldly and asked, “What are you here for?“
