Chapter 664 Leon Left
Aron walked away with a look of understanding.
"Austin, do you know where Leon has gone?" Michelle turned her head to ask Austin. Everyone else was still singing and playing games, but he was the only one sitting on the sofa and playing with his mobile phone.
Austin looked up from his phone, gazing at Michelle. He then motioned to the door and said, "He went out to answer a phone call."
"Okay." Michelle turned around and looked at the closed door. She then pulled out her phone and dialed Leon's number. He didn't answer her call. She sent him a message on WeChat, but there was no response as well.
She was starting to get worried that something bad might have happened to him. It was then that she decided to go out.
"Are you going to find him? I'll go with you. It's not safe to go out alone," Austin said, standing up.
"Thank you, Austin." Michelle smiled brightly up at him, revealing her teeth. Austin couldn't help but curl his lips into a smile.
While still in the middle of a game, Debra spotted the two of them walking out. She quickly stood up and followed them. "Where are you two going? It's not that I don't trust the two of you alone together, but we are in the Silverhall Nightclub. This place is not that..."
She trailed off. She saw the purity in Michelle's eyes, and she found herself unable to finish.
"Please take care of Michelle, Austin."
"Okay." There was no need for Debra to tell Austin this. She knew that he would protect Michelle. But he was quick to guess that Debra had completely misunderstood the situation. "Michelle wants to look for Leon. I'm going with her," he explained.
It was only then that Debra realized that someone was missing in the room. "Did Leon go out?"
Michelle nodded. "I'm worried about Leon. I can't seem to contact him, so I want to find him." All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
"Maybe something urgent came up. Leon is a grown man after all. Nothing will happen to him. You don't have to worry so much." Debra tried to comfort Michelle. Upon discovering that the two weren't planning to sneak off for a date or something, she was worried that the two might get in trouble. After all, Silverhall Nightclub was really not a good place.
"I'll go with you, too." Debra opened the door to find two bodyguards standing guard. When they saw her, they respectfully greeted her. Apparently, these were men sent by her father.
She asked them to continue guarding the door to the booth while she, Michelle, and Austin went out to find Leon.
In the Silverhall Nightclub, there were three floors above them and two below. They were currently on the third floor. It was quiet there. Apart from the occasional waiters that walked by, they couldn't hear any other noise that usually belonged to a nightclub.
Searching for someone in this place was like looking for a needle in a haystack. There were many forbidden areas where nobody was allowed to get in.
Debra came from a rich family, but everyone who was allowed to go to the third floor was either rick or powerful. Those who could go to the two floors below were the real big shots.
During their search for Leon, Debra was very cautious. Michelle also knew that she should be careful. She didn't dare say anything or even look around.
The waiters in the Silverhall Nightclub had undergone rigorous training. It was impossible to get any information out of them. When they were asked if they saw anyone, they would only answer politely, "Sorry, I don't know."
The longer they searched, the more Michelle started to worry. She was afraid that something had happened to Leon.
They already searched every corner of the third and second floors. Meanwhile, Leon was still not answering his phone.
The hall in the first floor was noisy. Everyone there was drinking freely and laughing boisterously. The music was also playing very loudly. Well-behaved girls didn't fit in here. As a result, many men looked them up and down.
But since Austin was there, none of the men dared approach them or invite them over. Someone accosted Debra. As soon as he offered a glass to her, the staff in the nightclub stopped him.
Austin shot a glance at Debra. Surprise was written all over his eyes. Debra might not know his identity, but he knew that her family was rich. He knew her father was friends with Tim. Nonetheless, he didn't expect that Debra would be treated so well here.
But he had no intentions of taking over the family business. These things didn't concern him anymore.
"Leon won't be here," Michelle said with a frown as she looked at the crowd of lecherous people.
But it was so noisy that neither Debra nor Austin heard her. Austin could only watch Michelle's lips moving, so he grabbed her wrist and dragged her out of the Silverhall Nightclub.
At that moment, Austin realized that he was getting nervous. His palms were even beginning to sweat. He should probably let her go or else he might lose control and do something to frighten her.
But when they reached the door, he realized that he was reluctant to let her go. Michelle was still looking for Leon. She didn't even notice the hand on her wrist. But even if she wasn't looking for anyone, she probably wouldn't feel anything.
Debra was smart enough to see through Austin. With just a glance, she knew he was struggling to let Michelle go. She could just imagine how this secret love scene would unfold.
She once said that Austin was in love with Michelle, but nobody believed her.
She had been observing them for some time now, and she had witnessed Austin's secret love for Michelle. But she was respectful enough to not meddle between them.
"Why did we go out, Austin?" It was Michelle who interrupted his train of thoughts. The moment she spoke, Austin snapped back to reality and withdrew his hand quickly.
Meanwhile, Michelle was still clueless. "Is Leon outside? He's not picking up his phone, and he's not replying to my WeChat messages. Could he be in trouble? Leon is not familiar with this place after all. And he doesn't have any money with him. What if he's already in big trouble?"
The more she talked, the more anxious she became.
"Leon is not a child, Michelle." Debra rubbed her forehead wordlessly. She just couldn't understand why Michelle was so worried about Leon. He wasn't even related to her by blood. She was even treating him like a child who couldn't solve a problem.
When in truth, Michelle was the one acting like a child who needed to be taken care of.
The whole thing just confused Debra.
"Leon is a reliable man. You can probably try calling his friends and ask for him," Austin suggested.
"Ah, yes!" It suddenly dawned on Michelle to call Wynn. She dialed his number, and it only took a while for him to pick up his phone.
"Wynn, do you know where Leon is? I couldn't find him. He's also not answering his phone or WeChat messages." Michelle was so anxious that tears began spilling out of her eyes. Wynn couldn't even say anything since she just went straight to telling him the entire story. "We were just having fun in a club. Leon went out to answer his phone, but he didn't tell me where he went. The next thing we knew, we couldn't find him anymore. Wynn, do you have any idea where he is?"
"Really? Did he leave without telling you?" Wynn sounded surprised from the other end of the line.
Leon was a very polite person. He would personally tell others in advance if he would leave a banquet or dinner party early. If it was something urgent that he couldn't tell others face to face, he would ask someone else to convey his message.
He wouldn't just leave secretly.
Wynn was getting nervous as well, but he tried to keep calm. "He didn't call me either. But don't worry. I'll try calling him as well."
"Okay. I'll wait for your news." Holding back her tears, Michelle hung up the phone.
Debra noticed that her eyes were getting red. Concerned, she asked, "What's wrong, Michelle? Why are you crying? Don't worry. Leon will be fine. Come here, and I will give you a hug."
She pulled Michelle into her arms and patted her back gently. Michelle had been holding back her tears for a while now, but they all streamed down her face as soon as Debra hugged her. She couldn't control her emotions any longer.
"I don't know. I'm just scared that Leon might suddenly disappear like Nini."
