"What are you trying to do?" Caroline's expression changed drastically.
Reid stretched out his arm, and Caroline's body fell right into Reid's embrace.
Although she was beautiful and had a lot of admirers, she had always had an aloof personality and had never had any close contact with any man. This was the first tshe was so physically close to a man.
A strong scent that belonged to a male body went right into Caroline's nostrils.
Caroline started to panic even more.
She stared at Reid with her face totally flushed. "Let go of me!" Reid had an indifferent look. "Miss Yethan, it's your fault that you still have my brother in your heart. You will only forget him after having a taste of another man." After saying that, Reid was about to grab Caroline in his arms.
Right at that moment, they heard the sound of footsteps coming from the stairs.
A flash of light appeared in Reid's dark eyes.
He let go of Caroline at once.
When Caroline was about to get mad with Reid, she suddenly glanced through the corner of her eyes and saw that Saoirse was walking down the stairs.
She gritted her teeth and held in her anger.
Saoirse walked up to Caroline and Reid.
She looked a little sad. "Caroline, Mr. Perry, I think I'd better go back to my place first. I won't bother you both anymore." When Caroline recalled what Reid had done just now, she did not dare to let Saoirse go at all.
She hurriedly said, "Don't go, Saoirse. Just stay here. It's not inconvenient for us at all." Saoirse still persisted on.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCaroline had no choice but to say, "Why don't you leave at night then, Saoirse? I'll be preparing dinner tonight. Why don't you have a taste of my cooking." Hearing Caroline's words, Saoirse had no choice but to agree to it. Caroline finally let out a sigh of relief.
Ten minutes later, Caroline entered Reid's study while holding a knife.
Since Reid had done such a thing to her, she thought that she should give him a good warning.
Caroline pushed the door to Reid's study and hid the knife behind her back.
Seeing Caroline coming in, Reid just gave her a light glance before lowering his head, as he read the book in his hand.
Caroline said coldly, "Reid, I want to have a talk with you." "Sure." "I am only your ally. We just have the senemy. I don't want you to have any other delusional thoughts!" Reid suddenly looked up at her.
The corners of his lips curled into a cold smile. "What are you referring to, Miss Yethan?" Caroline was furious.
Reid obviously knew what she meant.
"You are well aware of what you did earlier." "Oh?" Reid suddenly stood up and walked towards Caroline, "What did I do?" Seeing Reid standing in front of herself, Caroline felt the fear in her heart again.
She held the knife behind her so tightly.
"If it wasn't for Saoirse suddenly coming down, I'm afraid that I wouldn't be standing in front of you right now!" Caroline suppressed the fear in her heart.
Reid smiled and said, "If you won't be standing in front of me, do you mean that you will be lying beforeinstead?" "You!" Caroline was extremely furious.
Reid gazed at her from top to bottom. "You are a beautiful lady, men surely go after you all the time. Miss Yethan, you should blyourself for being too beautiful, and for having my brother in your heart." "All of this has nothing to do with you." Reid sneered, "Get out." "You haven't promisedyet!" "What should I promise you?" Caroline gritted her teeth. "In the future, you are not to touchas you wish." Reid stared at Caroline as if he wanted to see through her. "Miss Yethan, put down the knife in your hands before you talk tonext time. I'm not interested in talking to a woman who's holding a knife even if that woman is beautiful," Caroline was shocked at once.
She was hiding the knife behind her back, and Reid shouldn't know about it! "I am well aware about our current relationship, you're just my ally! Get out, I'm in no mood to talk to you." After saying that, Reid sat back into his seat.
He continued to read with his head lowered, not looking at her again.
Caroline looked at Reid with a complicated look in her eyes.
She did not know what this man was thinking about.
He had done such things to her earlier on, and she even suspected if that he would have done fel.& weren't for Saoirse. Yet now he had returned back to his usual coldness. en.swhovelsCaroline bit hard on her lip and finally went out.
After Caroline walked out, Reid finally raised his chin.
He looked at the door and spat out a word from between his lips, "B*tch." There was no exception to the fact that all women were just batches. The next day soon arrived in the twinkling of an eye.
Selina had her breakfast with Matthew in the ward that morning.
After breakfast, for the first time, Matthew made a request to Selina.
He said that he wanted sfreshly brewed coffee from a specific cafe.
This was the first tthat Matthew had asked Selina to buy something for him.
"I'll go get it right away." Selina immediately agreed to his request.
Matthew kissed her forehead. "My little girl, you are so kind." "It's nothing." She said, "It has always been you buying all sorts of things for me. It's nice that I can buy you something instead now." "Be careful on your journey there."
Selina smiled as she walked out of the ward. Seeing Selina disappearing from his sight, a gleam appeared in Matthew's dark eyes. He quickly made a phone call. He was not in the mood to drink coffee. Even if he wanted to drink it, he would surely not ask Selina to buy it for him. He just purposely got Selina to leave for awhile.
When Selina went out of the ward, she called the driver to fetch her to the cafe.
However, when she arrived at the door, she found that the doors were all closed.

She felt a little weird. On the door, it wrote that it was open from o'clock in the morning to 11 o'clock at night.
Why was it not open yet? Selina made a call to the shop owner, through the contact that was written on the door.
The shop owner said that he had something else to do and would not open the cafe until 11 o'clock.
It was almost 10 o'clock then, thus Selina simply sat in the car and waited.
At the stime, Yesseca was also wandering around on the streets.
She was out to find a job.
Although she was going to go to the Quartley family for the re-examination on Sunday, Yesseca still wanted to give herself sother options.
If she could get any other jobs elsewhere, she wouldn't have to go for the test in that cold man's place. However, after looking around for half a day on the street, Yesseca realized a fact.
No wonder so many people, including graduated university students like Sierra Lanes, would lock to the Quartley family to apply for the position of a servant. It was because the salary offered by the Quartley family was just too high.
100,000 dollars a month, it was equivalent to two years worth of wage of the jobs she found.
Yesseca stopped looking.
She made up her mind that she would go to the Quartley's place on Sunday.
After thinking about it, Yesseca was about to go back.
When she walked past a street, Yesseca suddenly heard a loud cry.
She looked towards the road instinctively and her body froze.
