Chapter 118 Cayne Sought Trouble

Deloris and Cayne were also dumbfounded when the door opened.

But the next second, Deloris said to Antonio with a smile, "Well done, bro. You took action so quickly." He was impressed by Caroline when seeing what happened in that private room that day.

A meaningful smile appeared on Cayne's gorgeous face.

"We meet again, Ms. Jameson."

Antonio and Deloris were both surprised.

"Do you know each other?"

Antonio turned to Caroline and asked with a smile, "When did you get to know Cayne?"

Right at this moment, Caroline's hands and legs trembled slightly.

She hadn't expected that these three men were good friends.

Nor had she expected that Antonio would introduce her to his best friends.

Caroline asked herself in her heart, "Will you come if you've known this earlier?"

The answer was "NO". It was simple and explicit.

Antonio thoughtfully pulled a chair for Caroline and said, "Take a seat. Don't be so nervous. Deloris and Cayne are all my friends. They may appear to be hard to get along with, but indeed they're very nice."

Caroline's face still looked pale. She forced a smile and sat down.

Deloris said in a teasing voice, "When did our playboy become so thoughtful?" Then he retorted to Antonio, "By the way, did I and Cayne appear to be hard to get along with? What did you mean? Do we really look like that?"

"Cayne, do you agree with me?" while speaking, Deloris nudged Cayne who sat beside him.

But he found Cayne kept staring at Caroline with great interest.

Deloris reminded him with a frown, "Cayne, don't stare at Ms. Jameson like this. You may scare her. And our Mr. Tucker will fight against you for it."

Cayne chuckled and said, "Oh, really?" He then asked Caroline nonchalantly, "Did I scare you, Ms. Jameson?"

He uttered "Ms. Jameson" in a strange, meaningful way.

Caroline's face turned paler.

Antonio suddenly focused his eyes on Cayne and said, "Why do I have a feeling that you take an interest in my girlfriend?" Antonio didn't like the way that Cayne stared at Caroline as well as the way he called her "Ms. Jameson". Maybe he was just thinking too much. But the more he thought about it, the more he felt something must have gone wrong.

Cayne clicked his tongue and looked up. He glanced at Antonio from the corner of his eye and his interest was gone in an instant. Then he glanced at Caroline coldly and said indifferently, "Rest assured. I have no interest in this kind of woman."

Deloris who sat beside Cayne turned to look at him. He wondered what was wrong with Cayne today that every word from his mouth sounded weird.

A hint of unhappiness flashed across Antonio's eyes. He squinted at Cayne, reached out, and put his hand on the back of Caroline's hand. Then he curled up his lips and asked her gently, "What would you like to eat?"

"I... Where is the restroom? I need to go to the restroom." She was afraid that she couldn't hold on for too long under Cayne's burning gaze.

"Turn left after leaving this room."

Just as Antonio had finished the words, Caroline immediately stood up and hurried toward the door.

"She must be in haste." Cayne suddenly commented.

Antonio abruptly glared at Cayne and asked, "What's wrong with you today? Are you jealous because I have a girlfriend?"

Cayne sneered and replied, "Do I have to be jealous?" Jealous? For whom? That kind of woman?

Cayne rolled his eyes and continued, "You thought too much. I'm going out for a smoke."

With that, he pulled his chair and strode out of the room.

Deloris tried to diffuse the intention as he said, "He ate explosives today. Just ignore him."

Antonio pressed his lips and remained silent. Apparently, he was unhappy.

After a while, he suddenly raised his head and asked, "How did you get to know Callie?"

Deloris was silent for a while. He didn't directly tell Antonio how they met. Instead, he asked, "Is she your girlfriend? Then you should know where she's working in." NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

"I know. Royal Club. So, do you mean that you met her in Royal Club?"

Deloris heaved a sigh of relief when he learned that Antonio had already been aware that Caroline was working in Royal Club. Now that Antonio had known about it, it was unnecessary for him to keep it a secret. Therefore, he told him simply about what had happened that day. Of course, he deleted some parts.

Caroline walked into the restroom in a panic. Her mind was a mess, and she didn't want to go back to the private room for the time being.

But Antonio called her at this moment.

"Okay. I'll be back soon." Caroline sighed. It seemed like she couldn't avoid this today.

When she opened the door of the cubicle, she was pulled in by a big force. The next moment, the door was slammed closed and locked from the inside.

"Hush. You don't want others to know you and I are locked in such a private place alone, right?" A familiar voice slowly resounded in her ear.

Caroline shivered all over. The arm around her waist tightened up. "Why are you so cold to me, Ms. Jameson? I didn't expect you're so good at manipulating people. You deliberately drew my attention back then, and now you get the fancy of our handsome, rich Antonio."

"I didn't." She didn't try to get his attention, nor did she try to hook up with any man, including Antonio.

"Tsk. Tsk. Though you said so, your body reacted differently." Caroline suddenly felt pain in her ear and she knitted her brows. That man had bit her ear with great force. He chuckled, "See, you should cry out if it hurts. Do people in your profession all mask up every day? Do you get used to being insincere at any time?"

He continued, "It hurt so much, but you still pretended as if nothing had happened. Oh, are you just like the actresses in those action movies? They kept shouting 'That's awesome' even if they felt uncomfortable."

Caroline tried so hard to suppress her impulse to throw a punch at Cayne's gorgeous face. Her fists were clenched and then loosened.

"Mr. Filocci, do you know that for some people, it's not that they don't know how to express themselves when they feel pain? It's because when they scream due to the pain, they won't get solicitude but beating instead." She was referring to her three-year prison life.

"Then Mr. Filocci, I have a question for you. Some people hold back their screams when they feel the pain. Do you think they are wrong? Do you think they insincere?"

Cayne was dumbfounded. But the next moment, a scornful smile appeared on his gorgeous face.

"Ms. Jameson, seems like you're very good at pretending to be pitiful. Your words make it sound like I would beat you up if you scream when I hurt you."

Caroline looked down. People who hadn't experienced that hell-like life would never understand. Some people said it only took seventeen days to develop a habit. If so, what about three years?

Therefore, if he couldn't understand, she didn't need to say anything else.

She said, "Mr. Filocci, you should let go of me now. Mr. Tucker called me and urged me to go back. If I stay here for too long, I'm afraid that he'll come to look for me."

"Are you threatening me?" Cayne raised his brows and continued, "Fine. Let Antonio come. Then I can take this chance to expose your true self to him."
