Chapter 37 Being Followed

In truth, Arlan was merely putting up a front. That was because he noticed a group of people following their limousine since they had gotten out of the Royal Territory.

At first, he thought that they were going in the same direction. However, those people followed them all way here. 'Three cars, twelve people. Who are they? They don't look like normal gangsters.' He thought to himself as observed them at the corner of his eyes.

He didn't want to alert the other party so he acted as if he was having a good time with the ladies. By doing this, they would lower their vigilance towards him. 

When they entered the hotel, Arlan's eyes turned cold as he released the two ladies' arms. "Someone followed us all the way here." He muttered in a calm voice. His words made the others stunned. 

"Don't look back. They are still nearby." Arlan muttered as he hugged Jezzie and Danica. The two ladies realized that the situation was serious so they cooperated with him. 

Fredrinn, Krizia, and Sofia were starting to get nervous when they heard Arlan's words. 

After the elevator door closed, Arlan released the two ladies again. 

"Mr. Roa, what's going on?" Krizia asked with a hint of distress in her voice. The others turned their gazes toward him. 

Arlan shook his head. "I'm not sure either. At first, I thought that they were gangsters, but it seems like they are more dangerous than that." He muttered with a frown. 

"Could they be Leandro's men?" Sofia suddenly spoke. Her eyes were filled with worry.

Hearing this, everyone's eyes widened in shock. Who in Maharlika didn't know Leandro Manzano? He was the most wanted criminal in the country! Even the Interpol is looking for his whereabouts! 

"I will explain everything later. This is not a good place to talk." Arlan muttered while shaking his head.

"There is a private room in the hotel's bar. We can chat there." Krizia said while taking out her phone. "Wait. I'll give them a heads up." 

"Just don't inform them about my identity." Only Krizia's assistant, Zed Brier, was aware that he was here in the Pegasus Hotel. The other employees of the hotel didn't know anything about him. Of course, Jezzie and Danica were also aware of his identity. 

"Alright." Krizia nodded her head. 

"I'm really sorry, Fredrinn. We should be having a good time, but things ended up this way." Arlan sighed as he apologized. I think you should take a look at

"There's no need to feel sorry, Mr. Roa. I'm already happy that you invited me here." Fredrinn replied honestly. 

The group chatted briefly as they headed to the hotel bar. 

The people in the bar were rich young ladies and wealthy scions. They were dancing along with the beat. Some of them were holding glasses of champagne as they danced. Everyone was partying like there was no tomorrow. 

"They are above the legal age, right?" Arlan couldn't help but ask when he saw many young people drinking inside the bar.

Krizia nodded her head as she answered. "We don't allow minors to enter here. There were those who tried to bribe our staff to allow them to go in, but they will be escorted out of the hotel." She knew the importance of following the law. There would be a huge impact on the hotel's reputation if they failed to follow the rules set by the government. They would also face legal charges if that happens.

A guard dressed in a black suit escorted them to the private room. Arlan noticed that there were four men in black suits standing outside. All of them were tall and intimidating. Krizia must have called the security of the hotel and told them to secure the private room. Other than those four black-suited men, he knew that there were also two more people. His gaze alternated between Jezzie and Danica as he thought of this. Since he first met them, he already knew that they weren't ordinary women. He believed that they were Krizia's personal guards. 

"Mr. Roa, please explain what's happening to us. We would like to understand the situation." Krizia said as soon as they took their seats. She wanted to know more about the situation so that she could make some preparations. She didn't want any trouble to happen in the hotel, especially now because there would be important guests coming soon. 

Arlan glanced inquiringly at Sofia. After seeing her nod her head, he told everyone about what happened to Sofia's family and how they became involved with Leandro. He also told them about how he visited one of their headquarters to pay off the debt of Sofia's family. 

Everyone was surprised after hearing the story. 

"I'm not sure if those people are Leandro's men, but he is the only person I offended so the chance is high. Don't tell the hotel's security about them. I don't want those people to be alerted for the time being. I'll deal with them myself." Arlan was still not ready to openly fight with Leandro. That guy was already in the business for over a decade. Leandro also have his own private army so it was foolish to fight against such a strong force without sufficient preparation. 

"Just tell me if you need anything, Mr. Roa. The Royal Territory will always be your ally!" Fredrinn patted his chest confidently. His boss was one of the richest in the country and they had connections to all sorts of people. 

"Let's not talk about them for now. Just keep this information to yourself." Arlan shook his head. 

Krizia noticed that he wasn't in the mood to talk about serious matters so she immediately told the employees to bring them some drinks and food. She also tried to divert the topic by talking about the important guests who are coming to the hotel. 

Soon, Arlan became interested. "Who is coming?" 

"It is Peter Bacari, the President of Louis Vuitton!" She paused for a moment before she added. "They are opening a new store in Manila with a scale that is comparable to that of their flagship store in Paris, France!"
