She Became Rich After Divorce (Cheyenne and Kelvin) novel Chapter 167

Chapter 167: Old And Unattractive

The screen suddenly flickered and turned black. Mr. King was accustomed to all the splendor and ugliness of the world, so he wasn't surprised when a guest with such "special interests" appeared.

He had been suspicious of Cheyenne before, but after seeing her go upstairs with the card dealer, he breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out she was just another rich woman looking for pleasure - nothing unusual.

What surprised him was Kelvin's reaction. His voice was low and soft as he spoke in the room, "Mr. Foley, do you know her too?"

This question made Kelvin feel ashamed; his face showed a hint of anger as he responded quietly, "To be precise, she's my ex-wife."

Mr. King hadn't expected that answer and was momentarily stunned before bursting into laughter and praising Cheyenne. "She's truly impressive. No wonder she's your woman."

Kelvin didn't want to hear that woman's name again; he simply nodded without any further reaction as his gaze met Mr. King's - his eyes were clear.

"We're divorced now; what happens to her is none of my concern. I have something else to attend to, so I'll take my leave," Kelvin said coldly before standing up with one hand on the ground.

After sitting for a while, there were two wrinkles on his suit pants which hugged his long legs tightly - making him look elegant and imposing at once.

The light flowed onto the LCD screen, adding some fine rays to that deep black color.

"I'll have someone escort you out," suggested Mr. King.

"No need, goodbye," replied Kelvin curtly before leaving abruptly through the door.

As soon as Kelvin left, a bodyguard hurried inside, whispering urgently into Mr. King's ear: "Sir, the person has arrived."

Upon hearing this news, Kelvin's face changed suddenly, and quickly walked out, saying, "I'm going now, you guys take care here."

Kelvin had just stepped out when he came face to face with someone walking towards him. The newcomer stood at around 6. 1 feet tall, with a slender build, completely wrapped in black fabric.

Beneath the black baseball cap, Kelvin couldn't help but steal a few extra glances at the person. There was an elusive, salty scent emanating from him. It was like the smell of an animal, or perhaps the odor of blood left to sit for a few days...

His instincts were telling him that this person was dangerous.

The man also sensed Kelvin's scrutiny and suddenly halted in his tracks, turning to look in Kelvin's direction.

The voice was hoarse, like an old phonograph, and whispered intermittently, "Young man, you are destined to be lonely without a life companion, though you are rich for life."

Upon hearing those words, Kelvin's gaze darkened and his lips pressed tightly together. He walked away without saying a word.

Lonely without a life companion? He is not even afraid of death, so what does loneliness matter to him?

Alive, lonely yet brilliant. This is his life creed!

The man in black did not feel angry because of being ignored, on the contrary, a hint of smile appeared in his murky eyes.

His smile was also icy and chilling, making one's scalp tingle.

From the staircase, Cheyenne and Reece walked up to the second floor and found the room number. The key card was in her hand.

Just now, the waiter went inside and there was a sound of rushing water coming from inside. It seems like he's taking a shower.
