She Killed My Ex novel Chapter 129

Chapter 129 Wait for Me in the Bed

The hot water from the shower poured down from her head. She closed her eyes and let her thoughts run wild. She didn't know what would happen in the future.

It would be easier for her to give up. For a useless person like her, no one would like her or help her. It would be easier for her just gave herself away. But, she wasn't willing to accept it.

Before Delores's debts were paid off, she had no reason to give up.

As for that man, Caroline was getting annoyed. How long did she still want to be muddled with him?

She couldn't do it anymore. She couldn't just sit and wait. Initially, she was hoping that he would get tired of her soon so that she would be asked to leave without her taking the risk of offending him. As for the money matter, she would think about it later. The priority was to find a way to get out of his sight.

After taking a shower, Caroline looked at the mirror over and over again. Then, she put on the clothes she wore earlier and dawdled in the bathroom.

She didn't know how long it had passed. She thought it should be over 30 or 40 minutes. She was thinking that if the man hadn't left, he would have been very impatient after waiting for so long and already urged her from the outside.

But as of that moment, there was no sound from the outside.

She felt relieved. She stretched out her hand and pushed the door open. When she raised her head and looked around, she was stunned immediately.

In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, the man still hadn't left and he was next to the desk lamp.

He was sitting on the single calfskin couch like a modest and elegant gentleman. Caroline was standing at the door of the bathroom. She didn't want to move because she didn't want to get too close to him. If it was possible, what she wanted the most at that moment was to simply close the bathroom door with a "bang" to distance herself from him.

But in the reality, things went contrary to one's wishes.

Hearing the movement, that man raised his head from the book in his hand and glanced at her. His eyes looked extremely deep and aggressive.

But it only stayed on her for less than two seconds before it passed by.

Caroline secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, with a "splat" sound, that man stood up from the couch and walked towards her. He was approaching her very calmly.

Caroline couldn't see her expression but that man could see it clearly.

She looked defensive. If one was going to measure how defensive she felt by the earthquake's density, it must be at the level of seven or eight. There was a spreading pain in her heart. But he deliberately ignored it and walked in her direction.

While he was approaching her, she couldn't help but stepped back a little. She was staring at the person in front of her as if he was the devil who destroyed the village back then. That stare made him feel very uncomfortable.

He took another step closer to her. That woman finally couldn't hide the unspeakable fear deep in her heart, and her expression became nervous and flustered, "You..."

"Are you done showering?" The magnetic voice sounded right after.

Caroline still stared at that man with undiminished vigilance, "Yeah."

"You've done showering, but I'm not yet."

Caroline was speechless. The deep voice and the calm tone made Caroline can't get the meaning of his words instantly. After a while, she seemed to understand him and responded with an "Ah." Then she asked subconsciously, "Mr. Shawn, do you want to shower here?"

She didn't notice that the door of the bathroom had opened silently. The man stood with his arms crossed in a leisurely manner, standing at the door of the bathroom, and watching her every move.

Caroline was so anxious and kept thinking to herself, "Where are you?"

"Where should it be?" She searched all the places that she could think of but she found nothing.

"What are you looking for?" There was a soft voice heard from her back. Caroline was caught in shock. She stood there in a daze.

The man looked at her leisurely without urging her. About a minute later, the woman beside the bed turned her head awkwardly and moved her uncoordinated limbs with her eyes wide open.

"You...The water...You...The water..." She looked pale. She pointed at the man at the door of the bathroom and pointed at the shower that was still running. She thought to herself, "He should be still in the shower. How long has he been looking at me by standing at the door?"

Caroline couldn't imagine how long the door had been open and how long that man had been standing behind her. Suddenly, she felt that she was a joke. It seemed like he had everything controlled in his hand and no matter how hard she was trying to escape, she would be unable to get rid of him.

That feeling made her startled and irritable.

"Oh. Do you mean that the water is still running? Didn't I tell you there is a glass wall in the bathroom which you couldn't see through from the outside but not from the inside?"

"I..."

"Why didn't you see it?" He asked the question for her and chuckled lightly, "Maybe it's because most of the time, the folding curtain is closed. I pulled it up just now."

While he was talking, he was heading back into the bathroom and turned off the shower faucet. When he returned, he raised the magnetic card in his hand and asked, "Are you looking for this?"
