My Unborn Baby Chose My Husband for Me novel Chapter 184

"Besides, didn't you just declare yourself our official love bodyguard? Keep a close watch. If she tries anything, you can report right back to me."

Hearing this, Little Bean instantly perked up.

*Oh, right! I have superpowers! I can totally spy on what's happening with Dad!*

Seraphina let out a genuine laugh at her unborn baby's fierce enthusiasm.

Meanwhile, at The Nocturne Lounge.

Lucian stepped through the heavy doors.

His sharp gaze swept over the dimly lit room, instantly zeroing in on Melody tucked away in the corner.

She was perched on a barstool with a man standing much too close to her.

The guy was actively trying to put his hands all over her.

From her spot in the shadows, Melody caught sight of Lucian approaching.

Without warning, she reached up and hastily unbuttoned the front of her dress, exposing the luminous swell of her cleavage.

Kenny practically drooled, ready to whistle in sheer delight.

He couldn't believe his luck—landing such a gorgeous, eager woman. He was about to have the night of his life.

But just as he reached out to pull her closer, Melody suddenly shrieked, "Help me!"

At the exact same moment, Lucian's commanding voice sliced through the noise. "Back off!"

Kenny froze. He looked up and visibly flinched at the sight of Lucian.

The man radiating pure, icy menace looked incredibly dangerous and wealthy—clearly not someone to mess with.

Kenny frantically backpedaled. "Whoa, man, it wasn't me! She unbuttoned her own dress!"

Playing the devastated victim flawlessly, Melody looked toward Lucian, her voice cracking with a perfectly timed sob.

"Lucian... thank God you're here... I was so terrified..."

"Let her go," Lucian demanded coldly.

Kenny was completely lost.

One second, they had been flirting and vibing perfectly.

The moment this terrifying guy showed up, her entire demeanor had flipped.

"Let's go."

He turned on his heel and headed for the exit.

Melody hurried after him, shooting a vicious, warning glare at Kenny over her shoulder.

Kenny stood rubbing his aching arm, utterly bewildered.

He scratched his head, muttering under his breath, "What the hell just happened?"

He'd been completely played by that woman.

His old buddy was right—the pretty ones were always the biggest liars.

As Lucian pushed through the club's main doors, Melody trotted to keep up in her high heels. "Lucian, thank you so much. If you hadn't shown up, I don't even know what I would have..."

She trailed off, her voice choking with engineered emotion.

Lucian's tone was entirely detached. "Don't mention it. Just be careful from now on. Places like this are chaotic. Don't come alone."

"I know, Lucian. I promise I won't do it again," she replied softly, her voice dripping with vulnerability.

"My driver will be here any minute. You can wait with him."
