Chapter 524
The Uber driver frowned.
"Sorry, you only purchased a one-way Uber pass," he told me, making my heart stop. I grabbed my phone and looked at the Uber app. I thought I selected the round-trip Uber pass, but sure enough, only the one-way was selected. "I have another customer I need to get to."
"It's fine," I told him as I pushed the door open. "I'll just get another Uber."
I slammed the door shut and rushed inside. My main focus was to get to Gavin. There were so many bars in this place that I cursed myself for not asking the bartender which bar he was at.
As I went to multiple bars in search of him, I noticed several strange looks from those around me, all probably wondering why I looked so disheveled and wasn't dressed up to their standards. I had half a mind to say something to them, but I couldn't think straight.
As I neared another bar, I felt my wolf stirring, almost pulling me in that direction and making me move faster. She had been wound up and antsy since that phone call and the fact that there are so many different scents here, not to mention a turmoil of emotions running through our veins, made it hard pick up on Gavin's specific scent, though it was clear to us that he was somewhere in this building.
But the second my wolf caught wind of that specific bar, his scent became evident the closer we got. I picked up my pace, and when I saw him slumped on the counter with the Bartender, I'm assuming Luis, trying to talk to him and give him some water, my quickened pace turned into a run.
The bartender noticed me and a relieved look crossed his face. I'm thinking he assumed I was the one he spoke to on the phone based on the fact that I'm running in their direction and dressed like a slob.
"You must be Judy," he said when I approached.
Ignoring him, I sat beside Gavin, cupping his face in my hands.
"Gavin," I said to him, keeping my one low, though there were traces of concern leaking through. Gavin, stay with me."
"Judy..." He whispered, his face nuzzling my hands. "Mmmm."
He was burning up.
I looked at the bartender; something wasn't right.
"Are you sure all he had was scotch?" I asked him.
He nodded.
"I've been here all night, and I didn't serve him any other drinks. I mean, he came from the restaurant. I'm assuming it was a business meeting he was attending. He was with a bunch of men with suits and a gorgeous woman by his side." noveldrama
"A woman?" I asked, my brows furrowed. "What did she look like?"
"Huge tits, nice ass.... gorgeous red
dress that hugged her fit form perfectly. Dark curly hair, bright green eyes with some blue and grey in them... God, I could stare at her for hours. She left a little bit ago though. I'm not sure if she's coming back despite the fact that she said she would."
My heart cracked in my chest.
He was with Rachel.
"And she left him?" I asked.
He nodded.
"They came to the bar together and then she told him she'll be right back and left,"
he said, shrugging. “They looked very intimate.”
I pressed my lips in a thin line, trying hard not to cry in front of the bartender. Now was not the time for pity parties. I needed to get Gavin out of here, back to his home, before he made a complete fool of himself.
"I need to call for an Uber," I told Gavin, hoping that he could hear and understand
me. “Just sit tight. I'm taking you to your villa, and then I'll call Dr. Pierce."
He grunted as his head rested back on the counter after I released my hold of him.
"I have a suite..." he murmured. "Just take me there."
His eyes were closed, but he was clearly conscious.
I glanced at the Bartender, who just shrugged.
