Chapter 133 Straighten Your Back
"From now on, you will live here." Bentley brought Caroline back to the 28th floor of the Royal Club and he said, "I have already tendered your resignation for you. After joining the Shawn Group, you will work as my assistant."
"My current job is fine!" She glared at him. She couldn't understand why did he decide for her.
"Really? Do you think a job that forces you to smile and please others is good? Caroline, even if you want to do it, I won't let you continue."
Caroline found it such a joke and thought to herself, "Why does she have to do that job in the first place? Who asked her to go to the PR department back then?"
How ridiculous was it?
"Mr. Shawn, that's not what you said back then. You are the one who transferred me to the public relations department, have you forgotten?" Caroline gritted her teeth and asked, "You asked me to do it back then. Why don't you let me do it now?"
Bentley glanced at Caroline complicatedly and asked, "Do you really want to know?" Caroline remained silent, and Bentley continued softly, "You will know it in the future."
"But I don't want to"
"Caroline, are you happy when you are doing this job?"
Was she happy? She was startled.
After Bentley finished speaking, he turned around and left. Caroline was being left there alone and that man had become more and more incomprehensible to her.
But one thing that he had never changed.
He always did whatever he wanted and he always made all the decisions!
What she hated the most was when he said that she was guilty, it made her feel that she was guilty.
Until now, she was still unable to resist him.
"What exactly do you want me to do?"
That afternoon, he was dealing with his business in the study room while Caroline was sitting in a daze in the living room. Then, she made a decision for her future.
She decided to escape!
She started to plan in her mind.
Bentley's behavior was getting weirder and she couldn't understand him. But she found him dangerous intuitively. Besides, she really couldn't afford to waste her time, so she had to make a plan.
After he had dinner in the evening, he went to the study room again. He didn't come out of the study room until nine o'clock in the evening.
Seeing Caroline, who was in the living room, he said plainly, "You sleep in the bedroom and I sleep on the couch."
Caroline got up silently and walked into the bedroom. The more he behaved in such a way, the more terrified she felt.
On the next day.
Caroline was given another set of suits. She was still standing at the entrance of the Shawn Group's building and she was still being asked to make a choice, "Come with me to a meeting or turn around and leave. Then, go back to Royal Club's apartment."
At the moment that Caroline turned to leave, Bentley stretched out his hand, pulled her with a little force, and dragged her into the building.
"Mr. Shawn, you said that I can choose!"
"I did." The man answered casually.
"You didn't keep your promise then." She said in a low voice.
"You can just leave me here, turn around, and walk out now. It will be the same."
How could it be the same? At that moment, there were so many pairs of eyes looking at her being dragged inside by him!
She didn't dare to leave him there and walked away at that moment. She couldn't bear to run from there to the side of the road under those guessing gazes.
Then, she buried her head deeply again and followed at his back unwillingly. She thought that as soon as she got into the elevator, those gazes and judges would be gone.
Those fingers that he was using to hold the shirt paused. His expression turned cold.
"Well, you are still thinking about Deloris. Such a loyal person."
That man thought ironically and the corners of his lips curled up a little.
So, what about Antonio?
Bentley was clear about the relationship between Deloris and Antonio.
That man seemed to find it suspicious and he asked tentatively, "Do you mean Deloris Sawyer?"
"Delores, I'm sorry."
Of course, Caroline wouldn't answer Bentley as she was sleeping.
Suddenly, Bentley stood up and walked out of the office with a frown. He went to the small meeting room next door. Then, he took out his mobile phone and called Deloris, "It's me, Bentley."
Surprise flashed on the face of Deloris who was busy, "Mr. Shawn, how odd to receive your call! How may I help you?" He made it short and asked directly.
Then, Bentley said bluntly, "What is your relationship with Caroline?"
That question was quite inexplicable to Deloris.
Even a steady person like Deloris was also taken aback for a moment before saying, "We met once."
He thought to himself, "Why does Bentley ask about this suddenly?"
In the next second, the other party said on the phone, "That feeling between you two is rather deep for someone who has just met once. It is so deep that Caroline shouted "Deloris" several times in her dream."
"Ough! Ough! Ough!" Deloris, who was drinking water was startled that he choked on water. He said quickly, "Mr. Shawn, you can't make such an allegation about me. Ms. Jameson is Antonio's favorite person. A man shouldn't covet his friend's love. I won't do something that bad."
