"So, where is she?" He suddenly became panic. Since Kane had called him, there must be something serious going on. Kane just could not tell him explicitly.
"Mr. Warner, Ms. Knowles has ... she has ..." Eloise stammered, feeling afraid.
"Come on." Luther urged, anxiously.
His heart was already racing.
"Ms. Knowles got into Mr. Robertson's car, and they went to dinner together. I heard that they were going to ... a place called Nine Up," Eloise said and her voice went lower and lower, and before she could finish her words, it was almost inaudible.
Dinner at Nine Up? What a joke?
It was the most famous nightclub in the Capital!
Just everyone knew that.
"What?!" Luther almost exclaimed.
"Nine Up?!" He confirmed again incredulously. Although he had never been there, of course he had heard of Nine Up, the famous nightclub in the Capital and a place for debauchery.
But Joyce might not know that. After all, it should be the first time she had been to the Capital!
But how would she actually get into Mr. Robertson's car?
What the hell was she even thinking? How dare she get into Mr. Robertson's car?
Was she just bold, or did she have some purpose?
Damn it! Damn it!
"How long have they left?" Luther almost yelled, completely unable to control his anger. He felt fear deep down his heart. He didn't know what was going to happen to her. All he knew was that it would not be safe to stay with someone like Mr. Robertson for even a second.
Eloise saw his furious expression and shivered. She stammered, "Quite … quite a while ..."
"Damn! Quite a while. How long is it really!"
