She Killed My Ex novel Chapter 85

Chapter 85 Stubbornness and Toughness to the Bones

Ding!

The elevator was back to its starting point, the door opened, and Caroline ignored Nathan, raised her foot, and walked out, then her arm was grabbed by Nathan. He said, "No, Callie, you can't go down now. You, you have to find a place to hide first."

"Mr. Jameson, please let go. I've got things to do," said Caroline.

"No, Callie, you will be seen by them if you go out now. Easton is having a party here with a bunch of people." Nathan pulled Caroline into the elevator, "Callie, you don't want to be seen like this by friends who we used to hang out with."

Caroline paused, and her eyes overflowed with fear at the words of Nathan, which were still in her ears. This was also a setback that she couldn't overcome - she did not dare to meet her former friends with this low and humble appearance.

She was faster than Nathan and hurriedly reached out to press the door-closing button of the elevator.

"Well, Mr. Jameson, looks like you have found a beautiful lady, and have a good time in the elevator." A teasing sound sounded, and the elevator door that was about to close was also gently blocked by a hand from outside. Now the door was reopened to both sides.

Nathan immediately pressed Caroline's head into his arms and said, "Stop it, Easton." Nathan used one hand to protect Caroline from Easton's hand, and said, "She is shy, Easton. The upstairs private room is ready. You guys go first."

He put Caroline's face into his arms and walked her out.

"Mr. Jameson, what are you doing? Let's go together."

"I have some personal matters. You go up first, and I'll catch up later. The treat is on me today, go have fun."

Whistles came one after another behind his back, "Well, Mr. Jameson said it's private. With who? That little girl in his arms, Mr. Jameson learns how to have fun now."

Caroline could hear the sound of people laughing loudly before the elevator door was closed.

Nathan took her to the corner and said, "Callie, don't go to work today."

Caroline's heart ached for a moment, and she dared not face the group of former friends. However, facing the person in front of her she had called "brother" for more than 20 years when he said those words, Caroline's hand was unconsciously pinched into her thigh so that she could resist the urge to yell at him.

"Caroline, you were a prisoner of reform through labor. You have no family. Three years ago, everyone in the Jameson family gave up on you. Don't be sad, Caroline. The tears that should be shed, and the heart that should be hurt had completed in the past three years." Caroline persuaded herself with those thoughts and repeated them more than ten or twenty times. Finally--

Slowly raising her head, Caroline moved Nathan's palm, which was holding her arm, "If I don't go to work today, what about tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, as long as the Royal Club is open, they will continue to consume. We don't know when will bump into them someday."

She looked at Nathan. She'd like to hear herself, at this time, the man who she had called brother for more than 20 years, how would he answer and choose.

"Callie, don't stay here any longer. Get a new job."

"Get a new job? What does Mr. Jameson want to introduce to me?" Caroline asked with a strange smile, waiting for Nathan to put out the last flame in her heart, completely snuffed out.

She also waited. Nathan would make a decision that was unexpected to her. If that was the case, Caroline said to herself: If Nathan made a decision that was unexpected to her this time, no matter how disappointed she was in jail or even resented the Jamesons, she would let go of this resentment from now on.

Nathan was silent for a long time and said, "Callie, I'm sorry. Bentley is badass. We can't afford to lose the bet."

Caroline's eyes darkened. After all, she did not get the decision from Nathan that she expected.
