My Six Brothers Killed Me (Caroline) novel Chapter 205

Chapter 205 She’s With Me

For reasons he couldn’t explain, Linden had absolutely no resistance when it came to Caroline. It was as if he were under some kind of spell, obsessed with the idea of conquering her.

This overwhelming urge was something he’d never experienced with any other woman.

“Let her go!”

A voice, edged with anger, rang out from the entrance to the rooftop. Both Caroline and Linden turned

toward it.

It was Blake,

Linden let out a low, mocking laugh, his breath hot against Caroline’s ear. “Why does your friend keep haunting us? Don’t tell me he’s got a thing for you?”

“Yeah, right! As if!” Caroline snapped, stomping hard on Linden’s polished shoe. He yelped in pain, immediately releasing her and clutching his foot, groaning for a good while.

As Blake strode over, Linden shouted dramatically at Caroline, “What, are you trying to murder your future husband?”

“Watch your mouth! Don’t go calling yourself my husband,” Caroline shot back with a smirk. “Show some respect. You should be calling me by my name.”

Linden’s expression soured, his brows knitting together. “Technically, we were engaged. If you hadn’t broken it off, you’d be with me now, not Helen. I won’t even ask why you called off the wedding. But if you come back to me now, I promise your restaurant will be safe–not just today, but forever. No one will dare mess with you again.”

Caroline bit her lip, glaring at him, her mind racing. There was no way she’d ever agree to his terms, but if she refused, even if she called the police to handle today’s trouble, there was no guarantee Linden wouldn’t send someone to harass her restaurant again in the future.

What was she supposed to do?

Just as she was weighing her options, Blake spoke up. “You should give up now. She’ll never be with you.”

His words weren’t loud, but they carried an unmistakable weight.

Linden couldn’t help but ask, “W–why not?”

Blake walked over to Caroline and gently slipped his arm around her shoulders. “Because she’s with me. You don’t stand a chance.”

The warmth of Blake’s hand on her shoulder sent a jolt through Caroline’s heart. She knew he was only doing this to help her shake off Linden.

Linden glared at Blake’s hand, his anger boiling over. “Caroline, is that true?”

But Caroline didn’t have a boyfriend–Teresa had told him so herself, even encouraged him to pursue her Where had this boyfriend suddenly come from? It had to be a lie!

With that thought, his scowl softened a bit. “So, just to turn me down, you’re going to get all cozy with some random guy? Do you really think that’s appropriate? What’s so bad about being with me? Don’t forget why

you came to see me today!”

The last part sounded like a threat to Caroline. If she didn’t agree to his terms, her restaurant would pay the price.

Maybe in a past life, she’d been threatened too many times. Now, she had no tolerance for it. Without hesitation, she turned, stood on her tiptoes, and pressed her lips to Blake’s.

Blake’s eyes widened in shock, his whole body going rigid.

“Caroline, you-!” Linden sputtered, breath coming in angry bursts as he watched the two of them kiss, utterly speechless.

After a few seconds, Caroline broke the kiss, took Blake’s hand in hers, and turned to Linden. “See? I already have someone I care about. Please stop wasting your time on me.”

Linden stared at their tightly clasped hands, consumed by jealousy. How could this ordinary guy have what he, a wealthy heir, couldn’t?

Was it just because he was handsome?
