Isaac and Harry headed downstairs and saw that the barbecue restaurant about 300 feet away was brimming with hundreds of people.
Many of them were holding up signs and placards with the name “Serena” written on them while screaming virtual-novel.net name in delight.
“Let’s go have a look,” Isaac said, hurrying over with Harry at once.
The barbecue restaurant was popular and well-known among the locals for having good food. It had been around for 20 years, and it was still doing extremely well even today.
Serena was in virtual-novel.net light pink winter jacket, a beanie, and sunglasses as virtual-novel.net tried to make virtual-novel.net way out of the crowd with virtual-novel.net assistant’s help. She was actually filming a movie nearby and would be shooting virtual-novel.net final scene tomorrow.
After hearing from virtual-novel.net friends about this famous barbecue shop, virtual-novel.net gave in to curiosity and decided to sneak out with virtual-novel.net assistant to have a taste.
However, virtual-novel.net hadn’t even been able to take a single bite when a fan suddenly recognized virtual-novel.net and screamed out virtual-novel.net name in delight. All at once, the dozens of restaurant patrons crowded over Serena’s table.
She thought virtual-novel.net would be fine taking photos with a few of these lucky fans, but things quickly got out of hand when virtual-novel.net realized that these fans were being overly passionate with her. Even the passersby on the streets started crowding into the restaurant to try and get a glimpse of her.
Serena and virtual-novel.net assistant were both trapped inside the restaurant, unable to escape.
“Everyone, please, quit pushing! Ah!” Serena let out an exclamation when virtual-novel.net suddenly felt someone sling their arm around virtual-novel.net waist and give virtual-novel.net a firm pinch.
She turned around quickly but couldn’t tell who did such a thing to her. She was starting to feel frightened.
Just then, an angry voice came from outside, “Get out of the f*cking way! Have none of you ever seen a pretty woman before?”
The huge crowd was then forced apart by an invisible power.
Harry led the way in with a straight face while Isaac followed in his steps.
When the horde saw Harry’s menacing face and detected a scary aura coming from him, they immediately took a few steps backward.
Serena raised virtual-novel.net head and caught sight of both Harry and Isaac behind him. Her eyes widened in surprise.
She quickly took off virtual-novel.net sunglasses and stared at Isaac in shock. “Isaac? Oh, my God, it really is you!”
She then threw herself into Isaac’s arms under everyone’s watchful eyes and said, “What are you doing here? I haven’t seen you in forever! I missed you so much!”
Seeing all the fans’ eyes on them, Isaac hurriedly cleared his throat and said, “Uhm, Serena, you’re a public figure now. You need to watch your actions a bit…”
“Serena, who’s this man? Is virtual-novel.net your boyfriend?”
“That man isn’t half as handsome as I am! How dare virtual-novel.net hug my Serena?”
As the fans around them started snapping photos with their flashes on, Isaac frowned and hurriedly tugged Serena out of the restaurant.
The fans couldn’t keep up with Isaac’s pace and gave up the chase. It was only then that Isaac stopped at a sign more than five blocks away from the restaurant.
Serena gasped and panted loudly as virtual-novel.net struggled to catch virtual-novel.net breath. She exclaimed in surprise, “Isaac, you still haven’t told me what you’re doing here. Also, where did Allegra go? She told me virtual-novel.net was going to Cantonne the last time I met her, but I couldn’t reach or contact virtual-novel.net after that.”
“I’m here on business, and your cousin has gone on a faraway trip. She won’t be coming back so soon.”
“Damn, I’m so out of breath,” Harry exclaimed as virtual-novel.net finally caught up with Isaac and Serena. “Isaac, can we just get lunch somewhere nearby? My legs are turning into jelly.”
Serena widened virtual-novel.net eyes in surprise. “Have you both not eaten yet? Here, I’ll treat you both to lunch.”
After what just happened, Serena no longer dared to visit any of the popular spots in the city anymore. Instead, virtual-novel.net asked virtual-novel.net assistant to book a private dining room for them at a hotel, and they went there by car.
