Chapter 124: Acted Strangely
The security guard said, “Sir, this is a women-only apartment. You can’t go in.”
It was raining heavily, and Dalton parked the car at the entrance of the alley. He didn’t even take an umbrella and walked into the apartment building. He knew Meryl lived here.
An hour ago, Dalton had called Meryl, but the call didn’t go through. He sent her a message but found that she had blocked him. He couldn’t believe that Meryl, a person who always pursued him and was always available, had actually blocked him!
Dalton wanted to ask Meryl why she had blocked him and why she hadn’t even answered his calls, so he drove to the apartment.
“Meryl! Come out!” Dalton shouted. “You made such a fuss just to attract my attention. Come out!”
“Sir, don’t shout. If you continue like this, I’ll drive you out!” A security guard stopped Dalton.
Dalton seemed not to hear him. “Meryl! Come out!”
Seeing this, the security guards pulled him out.
“Don’t touch me! Do you know who I am? I’m Dalton Aniston. Do you believe that I’ll buy this building tomorrow and fire all of you?”
The security guards looked at Dalton as if he were a fool, and their attitude was no longer as polite as before. They chatted with each other, “Who is this guy? He must be crazy. Why is he here acting crazy?”
“Yeah. He looks decent, but he’s actually a lunatic.”
“Just call the police.”
“He said he is Dalton Aniston. Do you know him?”
In the upper class of Kingsdom, Dalton was well-known. Many people had to give him some respect, but ordinary people didn’t know him at all.
The security guards drove Dalton out of the apartment building. It was raining heavily outside, and the rain streamed down his head. Dalton was wet all over.
Billy called Dalton and learned of his location. He immediately drove over.
“Dalton, what are you doing?” Billy was shocked when he saw Dalton was soaked. He quickly ran over with an umbrella and placed it over Dalton’s head.
Given Dalton’s current situation, it didn’t make any difference whether he held an umbrella or not.
“Meryl lives here,” Dalton said, looking up. It was already dark. A few scattered lights made the apartment look particularly warm, but he was extremely embarrassed.
Billy was startled. He frowned in surprise and asked, “You… What did you say?”
He couldn’t believe what he heard. Dalton came here in such heavy rain just to look for Meryl! Billy thought it was ridiculous.
He said, “Dalton, today is your wedding with Lydia. Why are you looking for Meryl?”
Dalton replied, “She blocked me.”
Upon learning this reason, Billy was even more speechless. He thought this was just an excuse.
Dalton couldn’t accept that Meryl didn’t go to the wedding and make a scene today, so he came over.
“Could it be that Meryl is sick?” Dalton looked at Billy and asked. “She is too sick to get out of bed, and that’s why she didn’t come to the wedding… to grab me?”
Billy suddenly didn’t know what to say. Dalton actually thought that Meryl would come to take him away!
Billy was frightened by Dalton’s thoughts. “Dalton, what are you thinking about?” He patted Dalton on the shoulder and continued, “You are married to Lydia. Why are you still looking forward to Meryl coming to your wedding and making a fuss? Haven’t you always wanted to marry Lydia? Now that you have fulfilled your wish, shouldn’t you be happy?”
