Sherman nodded. "Bingo. Now let''s go check on Esmond''s situation."


    Despite the rxed atmosphere during the journey, Rita''s heart raced as they arrived at the club''s parking lot.


    "Are you nervous?" Sherman asked.


    Rita nodded. "Of course. This is our first time being in such close contact with Esmond, after all."


    "Don''t focus too much on gathering information. It''s just the two of us, and all we need to do is meet him. It''ll be great if we seed, but if we don''t, we can treat it like any regr outing. Don''t put too much pressure on yourself," Sherman advised.


    "I am curious to see the face of the person who''s behind all these cruel acts," said Rita with a stern gaze.


    Sherman felt a tug at his heartstrings and said, "Then what are we waiting for?"


    He took Rita''s hand as they neared the entrance, and she nced at their sped hands before her gaze moved up to his face.


    "I apologize in advance, Rita. I might put you in a difficult position today by having to hold our hand," Sherman murmured in a low voice to avoid being overheard.


    "You could say the same about me," Rita replied in the same hushed tone.


    A genuine smile unfurled across Sherman''s face as he was taken aback by Rita''s responses. "Guess we''re both putting each other in a difficult position then."


    Rita put on a stern face and nodded. "I guess we are."


    Unfamiliar faces were a rarity there, and their entrance drew the attention of an attendant, who wore ck just like all the other employees in the establishment. were a rarity there. "May I help you?" asked the attendant.


    Sherman''s stoic demeanor, coupled with his usual air of authority, made him look intimidating, especially when he frowned.


    Quickly sensing the tension, Rita


    stepped forward. "We''re here to have


    some fun. Our friends told us that


    atel


    you have just about anything anyone can think of. Since it''s our first time here do you have any


    rmendations for us?"


    The woman smiled. "You''vee to the right ce. Having a wide range of facilities and impable service is our selling point. You''ll be free to experience your heart''s desire as long as you have the money ready."


    Rita pouted and asked, "Is it really that impressive?"


    The attendant did not say much and simply insisted that they experience everything for themselves.


    "Give us a VIP room, then. We''re not looking to spend extravagantly right away. We need to give this ce a test run first to see if your services justify the cost," Rita dered.


    The attendant nodded. "Of course. Our VIP roomse in five tiers. If you''re unsure, I rmend starting with the basic one."


    However, Sherman interjected from behind Rita. "I''ll take the highest tier."


    Rita immediatelytched onto his arm and feigned annoyance. "Come on, we don''t have to splurge on the most expensive option when it''s only our first time here. It''s such a waste! We don''t even know if it''ll be enjoyable."


    The attendant immediately countered. "That''s no fun, is it? Judging by your appearance and that of this gentleman, money


    seem to be an issue. What''s


    the point of making money if you don''t spend it? Life is all about rxing and having fun!"Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org.
