Chapter 6 Aren't You Going to Say Hi
As expected, she was implicated. She shouldn't have meddled in Madison's trouble.
Caroline was very regretful.
"Hey, I'm asking you. Ms. Cleaner."
Caroline could only nod.
The playboy laughed cheerfully. He then said to Madison, "Did you hear me? Even a cleaner is more sensible than you." He grabbed the bottle of wine, roughly put it on the table, and said, "Drink it up. Or I'll call Marissa here." Marissa was the woman who interviewed Caroline before.
Madison was a bit frightened at the mention of Marissa. Her family was poor and she came to Royal Club and worked as a waitress because it offered a high salary. If that playboy called Marissa, she would lose her job.
"Please don't call Marissa." Madison grabbed the bottle of wine on the crystal table and said, "I'll drink it." Before she drank, tears rolled down her face.
"Wait." A low, calm voice sounded in the dark. Caroline, who had her back to the dark corner, shivered violently and uncontrollably when she heard the voice.
Fright filled her eyes and her breath became heavy.
"Turn around.: The man in the dark ordered.
Caroline couldn't move a bit as if her legs were filled with lead. She said desperately to herself, "He's not talking to me."
"I'll repeat my words. Turn around, Ms. Cleaner!"
His words were like a punch in Caroline's heart. She knew that she must follow his order. With her teeth chattering, she who was in thick clothes turned around with great difficulty.
The atmosphere became weird. Now they all sensed something wrong.
That cynical playboy put his fingers on her lips, made a whistle joyfully, and said, "There comes a good show."
A man sitting on the sofa said, "Shut up, Spencer. Don't bother me."
"Holy shit. Anderson, you're such a bad boy in nature."
Caroline's eyes were filled with horror. She wanted to escape!
During the three years in prison, during those 1095 days and nights, she lived in hell. She didn't dare to have any illusions about Bentley after crawling out of that dark hell. The only thing left in her heart was the fear of this man that was engraved in her bones.
Even if there was infatuation and love for this man, she would have buried them in her heart long ago and never showed them again.
"Raise your head." The man ordered slowly. Caroline moved stiffly along with his order.
The light was dim and that man was hiding in a dark corner. She didn't dare to look around when she walked into the room. No wonder she didn't discover him.
Bentley sat in the corner of the sofa gracefully like a king. He spread one long arm on the armrest of the sofa and put his chin on the back of the other hand. He looked graceful and gentlemanly. He was wearing a pair of golden-rimmed glasses and was staring at her like a hungry wolf that would tear her up at any time.
It had been three years, but time didn't leave any traces on his face, instead, he looked more glamorous after the polishing of time.
His face, which was hidden in the dim light, seemed to be glided with a layer of gold. He sat there and exuded breathtaking charm.
Nonetheless, Caroline didn't dare to look at him anymore. She hurriedly buried her head in the thick clothes before her chest.
Bentley snorted coldly and said in a dangerous voice, "Long time no see. What's wrong with you? Aren't you going to say hi to me?"
