Chapter 22

Walking to the door of the private room, the environment on the second floor was indeed much more elegant, with fewer people compared to downstairs. As the door opened, the people inside warmly exclaimed, “Mr. Lucas, Mr. Lucas is here!

“Scott, you’ve really changed a lot, so handsome, rich, and charming. I bet the girls who like you are lining up, right?”

Scott jokingly replied, “Well, I wouldn’t know. I’ll have to check later.”

“In that case, you’re still single, huh? Ladies present, take note, Scott is a good catch. You should seize the opportunity!”

They chatted with Scott for a while before noticing Nina behind him. They seemed to realize something and said with a smile, “We have another distinguished guest today, Nina is here too.”

Nina apologized, “Sorry for being late.”
