Chapter 71 Caroline Lost Her Temper
"You said you interceded for me. Did you plead for me? You want to show your kindness?
Caroline, you are the least kind!"
As soon as Madison entered the door, she vented her anger.
Madison continued, "You are having an affair with Big Boss, aren't you? Why are you hitting on guys when you're having an affair with Big Boss? Not only did you seduce Antonio, but also that foreigner.
Listen to my voice. If you had interceded for me, would my throat have been choked with water and been congested?
The doctor said that my throat would recover after a long time. And even if it does recover, it won't be what it used to be.
Didn't you say you interceded for me?
I have begged you to intercede for me. I even bowed my head to admit my mistake with you, but you said on the surface that you would plead for me. In fact, you didn't do anything!
Caroline, you're the most hypocritical woman I've ever seen! You're disgusting. You're a phony!"
Caroline didn't interrupt Madison. There was no sadness, no joy, no anger or resentment on Caroline's face. Caroline's forehead was still burning. She slowly reached out and touched her forehead. Suddenly, she looked up at Madison, who was angry, and said in a rough voice,
"You're still alive, aren't you?"
"What do you mean?" Madison froze for a moment. Then her eyes suddenly widened. She glared at Caroline in disbelief. "Caroline, do you expect me to die?"
Hearing the high-pitched scream in her ear, Caroline chuckled.
"Madison, do you think you suffered because of me?"
"If it wasn't for you, would I have become like this and been thrown out of Royal Club? Do you know how difficult it is for a college student to earn living expenses and tuition by doing odd jobs for studies in a foreign country? Do you know that it is not easy to live?"
Caroline wanted to laugh from the bottom of her heart.
She thought, "So you know life isn't easy. Madison, since life isn't easy, why do you still mess with it?"
"You don't have to help me, but you promised that you would intercede for me, and you didn't. Caroline, if you're not willing to help me, why did you promise me in front of me? You want to be a good person and pretend to be kind, and you want to get my gratitude. But you didn't intercede for me.
Caroline, you are awful!"
Caroline closed her eyes. She was very tired. That Mr. Filocci, regardless of her wishes, touched the wound that she didn't want to be touched. That kiss touched more than just the scar on her forehead.
What was worse, Madison was high-handed and she messed with Caroline. In other times, Caroline would still be a yes-man, but now, she couldn't.
Caroline badly needed a separate space to hide herself. In this way, she could think of nothing and do nothing.
Caroline said slowly, "Logically, you harmed me first. I could quite ignore your life. If your displeasure with me is a reason for you to hurt me at will, then I wonder if I can give you back what you have done to me.
Besides, Madison, why do you think you're standing in front of me unscathed right now?"
Caroline chuckled. "Or you can annoy Big Boss again, and see what means he will use to deal with you next time."
It was not necessary to say much.
If Madison didn't understand, either she really didn't understand, or she didn't want to understand.
"I, I don't know what you're talking about. Caroline, why did you speak gibberish? You are so strange. If you don't want to help me, forget it. You don't need to make such strange remarks to clear yourself of suspicion."
For ordinary people, the word "suspicion" only meant what they learned from textbooks. It didn't mean much. But to Caroline, the word "suspicion" was both frightening and repulsive.
Caroline's face turned white as fast as it could be seen. She took a deep breath and looked at Madison. Her usual rough voice was a little shrill. But her voice was always rough, so even if it was shrill, it would only make people feel strange disharmony.
"Suspicion?" Caroline now approached Madison angrily. "Madison, do you know what the word "suspicion" means?
Suspicion?
What suspicion?
What suspicion do I need to clear?
Did I harm you?
Did I tell on you?
Madison, don't you feel humiliated?
You harmed me but you let the cat out of the bag. The company found out what you did. And you blame me for not interceding for you? Madison, who gave you the courage to be so ignorant and fearless?
Who on earth gave you the right to push your luck over and over again?"
"You, you, you." Madison was stunned. Every word Caroline said drove Madison back a step. Caroline stepped forward while Madison stepped back. Madison wondered why Caroline, who was in front of her, was different from the one Caroline used to be.
Madison added, "Ah!!! Caroline! I knew it! I knew it! You're just faking it! You're just pretending to be pathetic!
There are no men here. Mr. Tucker and Big Boss are not here. And I got kicked out of Royal Club. You think you no longer need to pretend in front of me because no one can expose your true colors, don't you?"
Caroline paused. She looked at the woman in front of her. No, Madison was still a girl. Caroline looked at the girl for a long time. Suddenly, Caroline laughed. Unlike the silent laughter before, this time Caroline laughed loudly. Her voice was so scrannel that Madison covered her ears.
"What's so funny? Have I seen through all this?"
Caroline glanced sideways at Madison and shook her head. Caroline said slowly, "I want to take a rest. You should go now."
"You're driving me away? You wish! You made my voice sound like this. The doctor said that my throat would recover after a long time. And even if it does recover, it won't be what it used to be. You want to drive me away now?"
Listening to Madison talk about her voice again, Caroline felt her throat dry. Caroline used to have a good voice, too. "Some things don't have a reason and don't make sense. Your voice is only temporarily broken. You should be thankful that the damage is not permanent."
Caroline finished the unintelligible words. And without giving Madison a chance to speak, Caroline asked again, "Are you really not leaving?"
"You can't drive me away."
Caroline nodded. She picked up her phone and called Marissa. "Marissa, I would like to trouble you to take a message to Big Boss for me. Tell him I want to take back my plea that I asked him to spare Madison's life. I would give anything for that."
When Madison listened to Caroline's words, her pretty face turned pale. "Caroline, no!"
Caroline was still on the line. She took a look at Madison and said to Marissa on the phone, "Marissa, just a minute."
Then Caroline looked at Madison again and asked slowly, Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
"Now do you understand what I said before?"
Madison looked pale and nervously at the phone in Caroline's hand. Madison nodded, though there was still reluctance in her eyes.
Caroline said into the phone, "Marissa, I'm sorry. I'm still on the fence about the matter I just mentioned to you, so don't mention it to Big Boss for the moment."
Caroline spoke slowly, but Madison had no chance to cut in. Caroline did not speak quickly, but no one could interrupt her.
"Madison, you and I are just colleagues and roommates. I don't owe you anything. Have you ever thought about this? I don't owe you anything from the beginning to the end.
It's up to me whether to help you or not."
