Secrets Of The Sullivan Sisters (Caroline and Nathan) novel Chapter 3

Chapter 3 The Little Housekeeper

Caroline’s heart clenched. In her memory, the head of the Faraday family had never been interested in women. He often wore a cold look on his face as if he was completely devoid of emotions, and he had been unattainable.

“Could it be that I’ve taken his first night?” Caroline wondered.

If that was the case, then it was no wonder he was so angry.

She was the one who took the initiative in the beginning, but when the man woke up, he flipped their positions and pinned her underneath him.

Thinking of this, Caroline felt that the parts of her collarbone that he had nibbled on last night were burning up, and even the discomfort throughout her b*dy was becoming oddly amplified.

“Honey, did you get the wrong person? This is Caroline. She’s just a little housekeeper who recently started working here.”

As soon as Shirley noticed that the situation had gone awry, she immediately spoke up. Nevertheless, she didn’t forget to toss Caroline a fierce glare, thinking, “Disgusting! Why is she so into seducing men? Why doesn’t she take a look at herself in the mirror, huh?”

“A little housekeeper?” Nathan peered down at her, sizing Caroline up without the slightest change in his expression.

Anxiety stirred within Caroline when she was faced with the man’s gaze. Still, she calmly lifted her face and purposefully revealed the nasty scar on the right side of her face to him. “You’ve mistaken me for someone else, Mr. Faraday. I don’t know you, and I’m just a housekeeper here.”

It was only then Nathan noticed the long scar that ran from the top to the bottom of the right side of Caroline’s face. The hideous and eye-piercing scar had destroyed her beauty.

A slight frown crossed Nathan’s face as he mused, “Indeed, this face doesn’t resemble hers.”

Nevertheless, he still questioned her, “Then why did you run away just now?”

“I didn’t run, Mr. Faraday. I just wanted to get back to work in the kitchen.”

Nathan stared at Caroline for a couple more seconds before he affirmed that the face he saw in the room belonged to Shirley.

But Shirley was by his side, and he had mistaken a housekeeper for her.

“You may go now.”

“Yes, Mr. Faraday.” Caroline turned around and went into the kitchen.

Then, Nathan headed upstairs, leaving Shirley behind.
