You Are Mine (English)

Chapter 230: Chapter 230: I don’t Want to Lose It

"Go with her?"

Eddie was a little startled with her request and thought it was unreasonable. She didn’t know Hicks very well, so why should she go with her? Eddie was getting ready to refuse, "But I..."

Hicks interrupted her, "Eddie, I’m sorry, I know I am asking a lot from you, but I have no other way. I have no friends in the city. If something happens to me, no one would care... I’m finally making some progress in my career, and I don’t want to lose it."

Everyone has their own weaknesses, and Eddie’s most significant weakness was having a soft heart. Probably because she grew up in such a harsh environment, Eddie couldn’t bear to see other people being vulnerable positions, let alone people suffering.

If she were to look back, Eddie would find that all her troubles were because of her soft heart. If it hadn’t been for this reason, she wouldn’t have helped Hicks at the audition. The price she paid was offending Anne Johns.

Seeing a beautiful woman like Hicks begging her even if she knew it would cause her trouble, she still wanted to help her. Since Eddie didn’t refuse her right away, Hicks asked again, "Eddie, can you please help me! We will sit and listen to what he has to say, and then we can leave. If he knows you’re not from my company, he won’t say anything to you. Then I can leave with you, and I have no other way."

Watching Hicks’ tears coursing down her cheeks, Eddie clenched her teeth and went ahead regardless of the consequences, "Fine, I’ll help you."

Eddie thought that since it was a public place, there would be a lot of people in the bar. So, there shouldn’t be any problems. Even if something did happen, she still had her phone, and she could call Stuart for help.

When Eddie agreed, Hicks’ tears turned into laughter, "Thank you, Eddie, thank you so much."

Eddie forced a smile on her face and thought that sooner or later, she may get herself into a lot of trouble with soft-heartedness. After parking the car, the two of them walked to the front door of Hallucina Bar. Eddie carefully examined the building. The bar logo was composed of small red light bulbs.

All sorts of people went in and out of the bar, and the music from inside was so loud that it was deafening to the ears. Just looking at this place gave her goosebumps.

"What an incompetent agent? Making a woman come to see an investor at such a place, Hicks agent really didn’t know what could happen to her in a bar like this?"

Eddie scolded Hicks’ agent inside. She compared Hicks’ agent to Danny, and in comparison, Danny was such a fantastic agent. For their safety before entering, Eddie said to Hicks, "Wait for a moment, I have to make a call."

Hicks nodded in agreement, and Eddie walked to the side and dialed Stuart’s personal number. Unexpectedly, Ivan picked up the phone, "Hi Mrs. Yates, the CEO is in a video conference right now. He gave his phone to me, is there anything I can do to help?"

Hearing that Stuart was in a conference, she swallowed her words. She knew Stuart well, and he must have told Ivan before the meeting that if she called to report to him. But Eddie didn’t want to interrupt him.

"Nothing, I’m just calling to..."

Eddie hesitated and figured she had better let him know where she was and said, "Can you tell him that I’m at the Hallucina Bar with one of my friends."

Since it was something relating to Eddie, Ivan asked, "Do I have to tell the CEO?"

"No, don’t disturb him."

Eddie looked over at the bar and discovered that Hicks was already being escorted into the bar by some men. Eddie’s expression changed, and she quickly hung up and walked over to Hicks.

"Lady, you’re so pretty! Come on in and have a drink with us." freeweɓnovel.cøm

Hicks was all flustered and didn’t know what to do. Eddie reached for her hand and pulled her away from the men. Then they walked into the bar.

"Hey! What’s wrong with you?"

Seeing that it was another woman, the expression on the man’s face was one of grim determination.

"The security is watching. Are you looking to get into trouble?"

The men had a guilty conscience and were afraid that they really had some connections at the bar. Knowing that the security was watching, their faces instantly turned pale. Then they cursed at Eddie and left.

Hicks covered her eyes in fear. The bar looked like a chaotic place, Eddie didn’t think they would be there very long. She lowered her voice and said to Hicks, "I think we should leave as soon as possible. We will meet with the investor to prove that we have been here and then leave at once."

Hicks nodded in agreement, "Okay, that’s a good idea."

According to the room number that Hicks’ agent gave her, they found the investor’s room quickly. They pushed the door open and walked in. Eddie was behind Hicks as they entered. Eddie saw the investor sitting in the middle of the sofa, and it was Tyron Boyle! Eddie was a little familiar with him.

Even in a place like this, Tyron Boyle was well known for his arrogance. He had harassed many beautiful female artists. Some of them even got nude videos taken by him. He also slept with some of his fans. He would sleep with them only to promise that he would introduce them to someone famous.

It wouldn’t be over-exaggerating to say that Tyron Boyle was notorious for being a ladies’ man. Eddie had been harassed by him as well. He once wanted Eddie to drink with him, but Danny turned him down for her. She didn’t expect that Hicks’ agent would make her come alone! What a devious man he was!

The lighting in the room was very dark, with only multicolored bulbs shining in the room, which made the whole place seem even more creepy. As Boyle saw Hicks walking in, he immediately put on a mischievous smile on his oily, fat face and welcomed her, "Finally, my adorable Hicks is here! I have been waiting for you."

Eddie wanted to vomit when she heard him say her name. Hicks was eager to back off and forced a smile on her face, "Hi...Mr. ... Mr. Boyle..."

As Boyle walked closer, he saw another person behind Hicks. It was Eddie, and his eyes instantly lit up the minute he saw her. It was as though he thought of something and smiled, even filthier.

"My adorable Hicks bought another woman with her! You look familiar, have we met before?"

Two years ago, Boyle took a fancy to Eddie. He told Danny he wanted to drink with her. Now he couldn’t even remember her name. It showed how many women Boyle had been with over the past two years.
