While Matthew spoke, his hot breath swept against her neck.
It felt like a spring breeze.
A hint of playfulness twinkled in her eyes, "Sorry, you can't behave like a rogue yet."
She didn't answer him directly.
But he didn't appear to be as dejected as she had expected.
In fact, his body pressed further against hers.
The corner of his lips curved in to an evil smirk, "That's fine. There will be time in the future for me to act roguish. There's no hurry."
Despite saying that, Matthew lifted Selina's arms above her head in an instant.
Selina's mind went blank.
A streak of panic flashed across her face. "Wh-what are you trying to do?"
Matthew's eyes blazed with desire as he clearly pronounced two words with his thin, attractive lips, "Kiss you."
The kiss they shared during the day was far from satisfying, so naturally, it needed to be made up for at night.
As soon as he spoke, his lips touched hers.
Selina was immediately silenced.
Taking her chance when they broke apart to breathe, she spat, "You're mean!"
"Mean?" One could see through his eyes that he was losing his sanity for her. "Then I'll be meaner, shall I?"
She could only let out soft muffled sounds as she felt herself melting against his touch.
She should not have said that. She really should not have said that.
It was initially just a kiss, but now it was becoming something more...
The night grew deeper.
And the room was filled with a charming and enigmatic atmosphere.
Caroline arrived at the club at exactly ten that night.
She saw a black car parked near the entrance, the moment she arrived.
As she approached, the car door opened and a man got off the car.
He was tall, with distinct and bright features that brought a hostile look to his face.
Beneath the gold- rimmed glasses he had a cunning and devious face.
He was undeniably very handsome.
He was Matthew's brother after all, so he couldn't be ugly.
However, although Reid was handsome, the feeling he gave others was completely different from Matthew. That was Caroline's first impression of him.
"Are you the person who called me?" asked Reid, looking gloomily at Caroline.
Caroline replied, "Yes, it was me."
She could not lose her composure in front of someone like Reid. If she was not cautious, she might end up being manipulated by him.
A small shimmer of emotion emerged in his eyes, but it vanished as soon as it appeared. He later nodded and said, "Let's go in."
They entered a private room.
They sat separately across each other on two chairs, facing each other.
After they got seated, Reid went straight to the point, "So you dislike Selina?"
He looked into Caroline's eyes.
She clenched her fists tightly saying, "It's hatred."
Her hatred ran so deep that if one were to write about it, the records would be unspeakably long.
Her life had been smooth sailing since she was a child. She was blessed with great beauty and a well- off family, so everyone treated her like a princess. If it hadn't been for Selina, she would have never suffered such great humiliation and let herself fall into such a terrible situation!
If it wasn't for her, she would not have even come to Agaphen City at all!
She should be in the United States right now, enjoying the pursuit of young men!
Selina was the reason she went through all that and was in her current situation.
For Reid, the hatred that flared in her eyes was plain as day.
He was slightly shocked by this.
He too had experienced intense hatred, so he obviously understood the sentiment held in her eyes.
