As night fell, the Blue Bar was packed and lively, every private room and VIP seating area buzzed with noise and excitement.

Tonight, Reece had invited Ashton, Hamish, and Frederick over to hang out. The bar manager ensured that the head of security on duty was notified well

in advance.

“Anyone who dares to cause trouble tonight gets kicked out–no exceptions. We can’t let anyone mess up the night for those VIPS,” the manager warned.

Besides, Reece had made it clear that Ashton was bringing his girlfriend along, so everyone was on their best behavior, extra cautious not to slip up.

Everyone knew Ashton had been Shoneport’s most eligible bachelor for 26 years, and he had never once had a woman by his side.

They had listened to all the tales about women trying to get close to him, believing they could use their beauty to advance their careers. However, in end, they always left disappointed.

But now, this legendary man who never spared a glance for women was rumored to have fallen for an ordinary college girl.

To win her heart, he set aside his ego and took the time to pick her up and drop her off at school himself. He also spent a considerable amount of money on a fancy house near her campus so that they could be close to each other.

Everyone was dying to know who Ashton’s mysterious girlfriend was and what kind of magic she had to conquer the legendary ice king himself.

“Everyone, stay sharp tonight. Keep your eyes peeled. When you see Mr. Goodwin and Mr. Wade coming in, be sure to block anyone who tries to get too close to them,” the manager, Philip Westin, reminded again in a serious tone.

“You got it, Mr. Westin. Relax, there’s no way the guys will mess things up for Mr. Goodwin tonight,” the security captain, Jake Simpson, said with a big grin, throwing an arm around Philip’s shoulder and ruffling his thinning hair.
