My Six Brothers Killed Me (Caroline) novel Chapter 192

Chapter 192 Just Not That Mr Sherwood

It was impossible to earn enough money to open a shop so quickly.

She told Blake about her plans to rent a storefront.

Blake’s lips curved slightly. “Hmm, food delivery isn’t a long–term solution. Plus, your cooking skills are exceptional–opening a shop is the right move…”

Their conversation was interrupted by the sudden ringing of a phone.

Caroline dug her phone out of her bag and frowned when she saw Edwin’s name on the screen.

There was no need to guess–Edwin was undoubtedly calling about the company’s troubles again.

Does he really think I’m Mr. Sherwood’s girlfriend?

Even if she were, she wouldn’t lift a finger to save Edwin’s company this time.

.Besides, she wasn’t.

Caroline decisively hung up, only to notice several missed calls from Edwin.

She must not have heard them while riding her scooter earlier.

Just as she tucked her phone back into her bag, it rang again.

With a sigh, she answered bluntly, “What now?”

Edwin’s irritated voice came through. “What are you doing? Why didn’t you answer my calls?”

“I was eating with a friend and didn’t hear it,” Caroline replied, picking up her fork to stuff a piece of steak into her mouth.

She wanted Edwin to know that she really was eating.

Edwin paused, his tone shifting to excitement. “Are you dining with Mr. Sherwood?”

Caroline instinctively glanced at Blake sitting across from her.

Yes, technically he was a Mr. Sherwood, just not that one.

She said flatly, “I’ve told you before, I don’t know Mr. Sherwood. I can’t help you with your problems. Stop calling me.”

With that, she ended the call and switched her phone to airplane mode.

Blake watched her hang up and asked knowingly, “Was that your brother?”

“Yeah, my eldest brother.” Caroline sighed, venting her frustration. “His company’s in trouble, and he wants the CEO of the Sherwood Group to bail him out. Fine, but he insists I know this Mr. Sherwood and should be the one to ask for help! Has he ever stopped to think? The CEO of the Sherwood Group is way out of my league. How would someone like me even get close to him, let alone catch his eye?”

Blake raised an eyebrow. “Not necessarily. No matter how accomplished he is, he’s still human. Humans eat, sleep, and have emotions–there’s no real difference.”

Finished

Caroline thought his words made some sense, but she had no interest in discussing someone so far

removed from her life.

She simply nodded in silent agreement and focused on her meal.

Over the next few days, Caroline’s phone was bombarded with calls from Edwin and Liam.

Fed up, she blocked both their numbers.

Peace returned instantly.

With her shop preparations keeping her busy, Caroline temporarily handed off her food delivery duties to Maia.

To avoid Edwin ambushing her at the neighborhood entrance, she started using the back gate instead.

For several days, no one disturbed her–until one morning, when someone else tracked her down.

“Caroline!” The voice called out just as she was riding her scooter out of the neighborhood.

‘She instinctively hit the brakes and turned to look.

Louise was walking toward her from inside the complex.

Caroline’s brows furrowed. Why is Louise here?

Is she here to see Helen?
