บท 129: Hostage Taking

As soon as Irene arrived at the mall through the underground parking lot, she was immediately escorted by a group of bully bodyguards wearing a black suit ensemble. They were wearing some earpieces wherein they get messages from the rest of the security team.

"This way, Miss Irene." One bodyguard stretched his hand leading her on the way to the waiting room. The bodyguards have intentionally taken Irene to a path which is less crowded to avoid attention from the fans.

Irene's fans started to flock the venue even at dawn since the admission is on a first come first served basis. Needless to say, a lot of people have already been starting to line up outside.

When Irene arrived in the waiting room, Valerie went along with her inside to wait for the event to start. The mall took extra measures to keep Irene heavily guarded by their security department to protect her from unexpected situations being in the public.
