Following that, a piece of soft music was played. Sitting beside Yasmine, a young lad, who had a diamond stud in his ear, nudged her with his elbow.
Yasmine shot a glance at him crabbily before turning to say to Janelle in dissatisfaction. "Come on, Janelle. We're classmates. I invited y'all to have fun together. Can you not be a party pooper?"
"I didn't mean it, Yasmine. I'm so sorry. I just think it's a little too noisy here."
"So it's too noisy for you, huh?" The lad with diamond piercings smirked. "It's my bad. It's Yasmine's birthday today, so I wanted to throw her a lively party. But if you think it's too noisy here, we can go to the private room upstairs. It's quiet up there."
"Wow! Are we going upstairs? It requires a minimum spend of two thousand! Darryl, you're treating Yasmine like a princess!" A girl with heavy makeup exclaimed in excitement.
"Haha! As long as Yasmine's happy, I'm willing to spend two hundred thousand for her, let alone two thousand." Darryl said while encircling Yasmine's slender waist with his arm.
"You're the best, Darryl!" Having gained face in front of her classmates, Yasmine kissed Darryl on his cheek.
"Let's go upstairs!" Cindy urged excitedly.
The fellow sitting beside Darryl with thick eyebrows wore a mischievous smile and answered, "Sure, sure. Let's go! We promise to make you happy."
Janelle was extremely disturbed by that guy's roguish smirk. However, she hesitated when she saw her other classmates, including Cindy, her best friend, in high spirits. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
On the other hand, Jacob, who had searched a big part of the bar, walked through the glitzy dance floor to the booths area.
Just as he was about to head to the booths, he stepped aside as a few gangsters surrounded him.
"It's him, boss!" The gangster who was beaten into a pulp by Gerald at the entrance just now pointed at Jacob with a resentful look.
Noticing the situation, the nearby guests had their eyes fixed on them.
The leader of the gangsters was a muscular goon with a tattoo and a terrifying look.
"Buddy, is it your man who hit my brother at the entrance just now?" the leader asked in a hoarse voice.
Jacob was startled for a moment when he saw his sister heading to the staircase out of the corner of his eye. He was about to go after Janelle when a sturdy arm reached out to block his way.
He shot a ferocious glare at the leader, which caused a cold shiver to run down the latter's spine. The leader was scared stiff as he watched Jacob walk away.
"Boss?" His underlings called out in perplexity.
Watching the tall figure walking straight toward the guests who were heading upstairs, the leader huffed
and ordered with a menacing expression, "We can't get that guy with just the few of us. Quickly go upstairs and get more men."
The other underlings exchanged glances. Get more men? We're getting help even before the fight starts?
"Janelle."
Janelle turned around in shock at the stairway. Cindy nudged her shoulder. "Hey, why is your brother here?"
"This is not somewhere you should come. Come home with me."
Jacob walked over with a serious look. He knew how dark this place could be, so he didn't want Janelle to stay here any longer.
Before Janelle could say something, someone was already pissed.
