"Let me go or I'll call the police and say you're harassing me"

A few minutes later, Thea, who had been taken directly out of the nightclub by Leo, shouted threateningly.

The cold night breeze blew, making the drunken girl sober up instantly.

A heavy feeling of dizziness welled up in my heart, my head seemed to suddenly become heavy, and my heart was tumbling with the desire to vomit.

She reluctantly pushed Leo away from the other's embrace.

Standing staggering on the side of the road, he first bent down and retched a few times, and then took the handkerchief handed by the other party.

After showing her embarrassment, Thea stared at Leo with wide eyes.

This hateful guy who forcibly took himself out of the nightclub was so rude and unreasonable, and not at all as gentle as the first time we met.

Thinking of this, the favorability in the girl's heart couldn't help but decline steadily until it was cleared.

"Call you, remember to tell the police that your nightclub not only allows minors to enter, but also sells alcohol to the other party, yes, I'm talking about you"

Leo pulled his phone out of his pocket and handed it to Thea with a smile.

Under U.S. law, citizens between the ages of 16 and 18 are allowed to marry and obtain a driver's license.

However, you can only legally drink alcohol after the age of 21.

This "no alcohol under the age of 21" law, called the Minimum Drinking Age Act, was passed and implemented as early as 1984.

The reason for this is underage drinking, which leads to the recurrence of drunk crimes and driving accidents.

It has become a widespread and serious social problem, which is why this bill was proposed.

If you are found to be under the legal age to drink alcohol, the police will first identify the source of the alcohol, and the person selling the alcohol will be prosecuted and fined.

Drinkers who break the law will also be fined, and the same penalties will be imposed on their guardians.

In fact, the U.S. has regulations on the sale of alcoholic beverages.

Restaurants must apply for a liquor license to sell alcohol, and even if they do, they are only allowed to sell beer and wine.

For example, the nominal operator of this nightclub is not Thea Quinn herself, because she is not of legal age at all.

"Give your mom a call, or I can send you back."

Leo met Thea's angry eyes and said softly, "Get in the car or let Ms. Moiraquinn come over, and then take you home and pick one." ”

"To be honest, if you choose the latter, it will make you more embarrassed."

The girl didn't take the phone, her eyes were staring at Leo who was smiling hatefully, and she looked angry.

She originally wanted to continue to return to the nightclub and continue to have fun with the rich girls in Star City.

But it seems that tonight's party can only end here.

Thea struggled for a while, and finally sat in Leo's car rather helplessly.

"Go around outside a few more times and then go back, or I'll tell my mom that you're going to insult me while I'm drunk in the car."

Thea looked sideways at Leo, her drunken eyes flashing with cunning.

"I'm sorry, I'm going to send you straight home. And, even if you say so, no one will believe it, including your mother. The whole of Star City knows that I have a pretty high opinion of women, and with all due respect, Miss Quinn, you don't have any attraction for the time being. ”

Leo faintly refused, stepped on the accelerator and rode the dust.

The sports car under the seat is speeding towards Quinn's mansion.

And the angry answer just now almost drove Thea crazy.

What does it mean to be "unattractive"

The rebellious girl looked down, then became even more annoyed

"If I go back so late, my mom will definitely scold me and leave me grounded at home"

A few minutes later, Thea silently gathered her mood.

The maturely dressed girl sat in the passenger seat, blinking her big eyes and a pitiful expression.

One second he was still threatening, and the next moment he was pretending to be pitiful.

It can be seen that women are born actors regardless of age.

"So how do you want to keep sending you back to the bar?"

Leo was unmoved, this kind of green apple, there was no temptation for him.

"I can go to your house."

Thea tried her best to make a charming appearance, and said in a weak voice.

However, due to his age and lack of experience, it is a bit funny.

"I'm afraid it's a bit inappropriate for you to go home with a strange man you've met a few times, and I don't want to be charged with abducting underage girls."

Leo refused again, and his heart did not waver.

The reason why he took Thea out of the nightclub was not out of kindness or nosy.

On the one hand, there is the White Industries Group and the Quinn Consortium, which have been working together commercially.

The reconstruction and development of Palm Lake alone has firmly tied the two pillars of Star City's economy together.

Because of this project, Leo and Walter Steele, the manager of the Quinn Consortium, have a good relationship, so naturally he can't sit idly by and ignore his stepdaughter.

On the other hand, he knows a little bit about the poor background of this rebellious girl.

Thea is the illegitimate daughter of Malcolm Merlin and Moiraquien, not Oliver's own sister.

Five years after Robert Quinn was shipwrecked and his brother disappeared, he returned from a desert island and was accused of being a violent man who liked to go around the city and hunt the rich with bows and arrows.

The heavy blow of losing both father and brother at the same time, plus family level reasons.

made Thea gradually go down the path of depravity and became a rebellious girl who smoked and drank.

This little princess of the Quinn family is just an example of failed education.

In fact, she is not bad by nature, and she does not have so many bad problems.

"I would suggest to your mother that the nightclub should have a different owner. Thea, your stepfather, Walter, has recently been interested in running for mayor, and if the media reports that his daughter is drinking illegally and using illegal drugs, then he will be in a passive situation. ”

Leo held the steering wheel with both hands and said reasonably.

Thea has a cold relationship with her mother, but she is quite good with her stepfather, Walter.

But the reason why the black uncle came up with the idea of running for mayor was because he contributed to it.

"But I really don't want to go home, Oliver is not here, my mother spends more time in the company than at home."

Thea leaned her head against the window, her hands on her shoulders.

The rebellious girl at this time looks like a poor stray cat.

Sure enough, since I got a cat, my heart has become much weaker. Leo sighed silently.

The speeding sports car slows down and turns around.

Drive towards the bright city that had been left behind

The roaring engine goes out, and the sports car stops in front of a free-standing apartment building on the Upper East Side.

Leo picked up the sleepy Thea from the car and pulled out the key to open the door.

This is the nest that Helena bought alone with her father during the Cold War, and now he uses it to house this troublesome rebellious girl.

At this time, Thea was like a tree bear hanging on Leo's body.

It wasn't until he was slammed on the bed that his drowsy consciousness came to his senses.

The dark room, the unfamiliar ceiling, and the tall figure standing beside the bed

"Get a good night's sleep, have brand new towels and toiletries in the bathroom, and go home by yourself tomorrow morning."

Leo said a few words, then opened the door and prepared to leave.

"Aren't you going to do something?"

Thea, who was originally a lonely man and a widow, was a little scared, and after seeing that Leo had no bad intentions, she deliberately said in a seductive tone.

She will obediently get into the other person's sports car and be taken to a strange place, not without defense.

First of all, he knew Leo, and his reputation was not bad, at least much better than that of his brother Oliver and his friend Tommy.

Secondly, the other party has a good relationship with her stepfather Walter, and has been praised by her parents many times, saying that she is a model figure for the younger generation.

"Miss Quinn, I'm not just the kind of person."

Hearing Thea's teasing, Leo stopped at the door and took a few steps towards the bed.

When the other party's eyes showed a little panic, the corners of his mouth outlined a playful smile.

Then he turned and left, and closed the door.

boom

Seconds later, a pillow slammed against the door.

Thea sat on the bed with her legs crossed, and heard the sound of a sports car starting outside.

She chuckled under her breath twice, buried her head in her knees, and felt a long-lost peace and peace of mind in her heart.
