Chapter 458
The three ladies snapped back to their senses after being reminded by Harold.
Immediately, they dashed out of the KTV while Harold covered them by pointing the fire hose at their opponents.
“Get in!”
When the trio arrived at the parking lot, Naomi walked toward her car, opened the door, and demanded Luna and Michelle to get into the vehicle.
The two women quickly entered the car as instructed.
At that time, Harold was still blasting the fire hose at Owen and the thugs in the KTV. Before Luna could urge Harold to get in the car, Naomi had already started the car engine and driven off without waiting for him. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
“What are you doing, Naomi? Harold hasn't got in yet,” asked the panic-stricken Luna.
“Luna, he didn't say anything when he left just now. Instead, he tricked us into holding those guys back for him. What's wrong with making him do the same for us now? Anyway, this is a relatively big car, and it's not easy to make a U-turn here. If we get caught by Owen and his gang, none of us may be able to escape,” Naomi said while driving.
She did not intend to stop the car for Harold.
“Naomi, he left earlier because he went out looking for the fire hose. Didn't he return to rescue us? How could you say that about him?”
Luna got all worked up when Naomi showed no signs of stopping the car and tried to justify Harold's actions on his behalf.
Naomi seemed unfazed by Luna's justification and replied indifferently, “Who knows what's on his mind at that time? I bet he initially wanted to escape all by himself and only thought of saving us when he saw the fire hose on the way out. Otherwise, I doubt he would take the risk to come back and help us. Perhaps the only reason why he chose to rescue us was the same as that scum, Owen—he's lusting after our bodies! What do you think, Michelle?”
Although Michelle did not say a single word, she nodded in agreement.
“Oh my, you two... All these are just your unfounded assumptions. Regardless of what he was thinking previously, the fact is that he came back for us. It's too ungrateful of us to leave him in danger!” Luna was displeased at the duo's attitude.
Naomi didn't know what to say in response. Yet, she continued driving and had no intention of stopping the car.
On the other hand, Michelle looked unbothered, as if she had nothing to do with the matter.
“Stop the car now! I want to get out!” demanded Luna when she received no response from the other two ladies.
She wanted to go back and look for Harold.
“It's very dangerous for me to pull over now, Luna. Why don't you give him a call and check on him? If the situation allows, I'll find a hidden spot and wait for him there.”
When Naomi saw how agitated Luna was getting, she had no choice but to compromise.
Without delay, Luna whipped out her phone and called Harold.
“Luna, are you all okay? I managed to ditch them after leading them off course. Don't worry, I'll get a cab in a bit and go back to the clinic.”
As soon as the call was connected, Harold's voice came through.
Only then did Luna heave a sigh of relief, knowing that he was safe and sound.
Considering how drenched the ladies were, they decided to head to Luna's clinic to get changed instead of going home in their wet clothes and making their family worry.
When Harold arrived at the clinic, he saw a white Land Rover parked right outside its premises. However, the main entrance was closed.
Harold did not think much about it and habitually entered through the back door. He then strode toward the second floor.
There were only two rooms on that floor. Luna occupied the bigger room, whereas Harold used the smaller one.
When he got there, he overheard some ladies talking in Luna's room and guessed that they were probably changing.
Without a second thought, Harold took out his key and opened the door to the room he was staying in.
“Ah!”
The moment he opened the door, a woman's shrill scream rang out.
His scalp prickled as soon as he heard the familiar voice, for he could instantly tell it was Naomi's voice without even having to look.
He lifted his head and was shocked to see a naked Naomi changing in his room.
She had only two hands to cover her private parts. Needless to say, some parts were left exposed.
Obvious signs of distress crept up on her cute face. At that moment, Naomi was so anxious that she almost cried.
