Chapter 249

"OK! You have fun first, I'll take Marian home." With that, Alston reached out and pulled Marian up, walking towards the exit. It was still early, just after seven o'clock. Outside the Nocturnal Club, just getting lively, Alston drove to The Ritz-Carlton and escorted Marian to the door of her room. Before closing the door, Marian looked at Alston, a hint of shyness coloring her cheeks. "Alston, do you want to come in and sit for a while?" Alston paused, a fleeting gleam passing through his eyes. He stood in place for a moment, his gaze locked on Marian's figure. After a few seconds, a smile crept onto his handsome face. "No, Boyce called earlier about some company matters. I need to go back." Marian nodded. "Then be careful on your way back." Alston nodded with a smile. That's how Marian always was, always understanding. Cecilia, on the other hand, was worthless except for her face! He wasn't as vulgar as Brian! Outside the hotel, it wasn't time for Alston's appointment with Boyce yet.
