Chapter 116
Caroline felt speechless. “My dear Yuliana, ask me. You can ask me if you don’t understand. I know!” she shouted in her heart.
Caroline looked up at the man.
Nathan stood tall and leggy in the living room, with the black coat still on him. He glanced at the things in Yuliana’s hand faintly and then looked at her.
Caroline was so embarrassed that she wanted to die.
“Yuliana, give it to me. I’ll go back to my room.” Caroline went back to her room quickly with the big box in her arms.
In the room, Caroline took out her phone and sent Janelle a message through WhatsApp: [Janelle, what do you mean by sending that to me?]
Janelle did not reply. Probably she was adjusting to the jet lag as she just came back.
Caroline covered her hot face and went to take a shower. When she came out, she felt thirsty, so she went to the dining room to get some water.
She poured a glass of warm water, drank two sips, and turned around. Suddenly, she bumped into a broad and fit chest.
The water in the glass splashed out, drenching a large area of the man’s black shirt.
It was Nathan.
She didn’t know when he went downstairs and stood quietly behind her.
“Ah!” Caroline exclaimed lightly in fright.
Nathan looked at her with his handsome eyes down and said in a low voice, “Don’t
scream!”
After that night’s stand–in, the two remained silent. This was the first thing he said to her, telling her not to scream.
The ambiguity lingered around them instantly.
Caroline’s clear black eyes sparkled. She turned sideways and wanted to leave.
But he blocked her way. There was a sneer on his thin lips. “Did you just leave after drenching my clothes like this? Wipe them clean for me.”
Caroline paused. She could only take a few tissues out and help him wipe his wet shirt.
Chapter 116
The man rolled up the sleeves of his black shirt and wrapped his hand in his pocket, revealing his strong forearm and a luxury watch. His black trousers were tied with an expensive belt. He looked at her silently and abstinently.
After a while, he said, “Bought so many things?”
Caroline’s hand trembled for a second. She knew that he was talking about the box of condoms. She explained, “I didn’t buy it. My best friend gave it to me.”
“Why didn’t your friend give it to someone else? Just for you? What did you do?”
Caroline was speechless.
At this moment, the WhatsApp notifications sounded. Janelle replied with two voice
messages.
In order to prove her innocence, Caroline generously turned on the voice messages for him. She said, “I didn’t do anything. Listen to this if you don’t believe me.”
Janelle’s soft voice came out. She said in the voice messages, “Carol, it’s for you and Mr. Faraday. As your best friend, I’ve bought all the condoms for you and Mr. Faraday.”
