Outside the club, two burly bodyguards stood by the entrance.
Dalton was about to lead Lydia inside when the guards abruptly blocked their path with their arms.
Dalton's expression turned icy. He shot a cold glare at the guards, his voice sharp. "My uncle asked us here. What's the hold-up?"
The guards, towering and unyielding, spoke with a chill in their voices. "I need to report this inside first."
Annoyed, Dalton was about to lose his cool when Lydia gently lugged on his sleeve.
Sensing Chandler was likely trying to make things difficult for her, she gave the guards a warm, if slightly strained, smile. "It's alright if I wait here. Can you let Dalton go in?" The night air had turned sharply cold after the rain, and the draft at the club's entrance made it even worse.
Lydia, wearing a sleek satin dress, was visibly shivering, her nose reddening from the chill.
The guard was unmoved by her plea and responded firmly, "No."
Dalton's face turned stormy.
Frustrated and without a clear outlet for his anger, he watched the guard disappear into the club, leaving them out in the cold.
Finally, after more than ten minutes, the guard reappeared.
