She Killed My Ex novel Chapter 5

Chapter 5 Being Trapped in Trouble

Caroline still had a lingering fear. Before she could calm down, she suddenly realized that a strange man was holding her by her waist intimately.

"Ah..." Caroline was in a panic. She had never been hugged so intimately by any man other than her elder brother since she was little. Not even by Bentley.

Antonio's expression turned gloomy. He stretched out the other hand to cover Caroline's mouth and said, "Shut up! What are you yelling at? You're really strange. Normal people would be frightened when they fall and scream out of instinct. But you're different, you didn't yell when you fell, but scream now."

Caroline stammered, "You-You let go of me first."

It was a suspicious reaction in Antonio's eyes. He had a sudden enlightenment and asked, "Hey, come on, did you scream because I held you by your waist?" Catching the embarrassment flashing across the face of the woman in his arms, Antonio felt speechless.

"That seems to be true." Antonio rolled his eyes and grinned weirdly. He then continued, "Hey, woman, could it be that you've never been hugged like this by a man?"

Antonio thought this woman's reaction was very interesting. Looking at her red ears, he got an idea and deliberately tightened his grip around Caroline's waist out of mischief.

Caroline flushed.

Looking at her red face, Antonio felt as if he had found a new continent. How came a woman would blush when she was being hugged by the waist nowadays? What a novelty! That was so interesting!

Antonio got so excited as if he had found a new continent.

He pinched her waist naughtily. He felt strange when he only pinched the fabric of her clothes. Not caring about his gentlemanly demeanor, he moved his hand to the hem of her clothes and quickly stretched it into her clothes. He was shocked when he touched her waist.

"What are you doing?"

Caroline struggled to push Antonio away. The latter, however, looked at her in astonishment and murmured, "Your waist..." He didn't know how to organize his wording. Was the waist he touched just now a normal woman's waist?

Antonio always boasted himself as a lady killer who had been dating hundreds of beauties. Among them, there were many internationally famous models and stars. But Caroline's waist was even thinner than the thinnest one among those women he had dated. It was so thin that he could even circle it with one hand.

"You..." He moved his lips several times, trying to say "turns out that this is the reason why you wear so many clothes on such a hot day". However, when looking into her aggrieved yet humble eyes, he couldn't say anything. She was in great pain, but she pretended to not care about it.

Antonio still remembered Caroline's eyes many years later. At present, he couldn't understand why a person could look unruly yet humble at the same time and mix up two completely opposite emotions.

What had happened to her that she had two contradictory qualities?

Caroline pushed Antonio away and ran away. But she couldn't run fast and fell after taking two steps. however, she didn't care about the pain at all. She propped herself up from the ground with the support of the wall and tried to stay away from Antonio as fast as she could.

She had a messy mind and she felt as if the most humiliating thing about her was discovered.

She just wanted a peaceful life after being discharged from prison. She would be satisfied as long as she wouldn't be starved, had a place to live in, and could save some money. She wanted to go to Gartane Lake to appreciate the clarity and blue of the lake and sky there with her own eyes, which could never be seen in prison.

She couldn't bear any other storms.

Antonio walked up, trying to help her. But the girl would quicken her pace as if a ghost was chasing after her whenever he walked closer to her. She walked dragging her body while leaning against the wall, looking very pitiful.

Antonio had no choice but to slow down.

...

In Room 606...

Caroline knocked on the door and then walked into the room.

As soon as she entered, she sensed the spooky atmosphere in the room. Under the dim light, she saw several guests sitting on the sofa. Next to them were several female models.

Only a pure-looking girl was standing before the crystal table in the room.
