“So she’s getting married today?” Aalya said in a sarcastic tone. Her mouth was smiling, but her tone sounded unpleasant.“You lost again to her.” Brian, her boyfriend, started to complain.“I always lose to her.”“Caroline only has you now. You’re the only family she has left, but she didn’t tell you when she was getting married. She really doesn’t care about you at all.”Aalya fell silent at Brian’s words. She actually felt sick when she heard that sentence. How come she was no longer considered by her sister? They used to be very close, even like best friends. However, now they were like eternal enemies. Let alone inviting her to the wedding, Caroline didn’t even tell her directly that she was getting married. Caroline sent a message to one of her bodyguards to tell Aalya about the news.“Luck has always been on her side. She always gets all the best, while I’m the opposite.” Aalya muttered as if she were talking to herself. “We are like two sides of the same coin. He’s the positiv
The wedding went very smoothly. Even Jake and Delia didn't dare make a scene for fear of Jared. Delia tried to be friendly, even going up to the two and congratulating them on their marriage. She acted as if she had changed and accepted Caroline as her sister-in-law."I'm sorry that I've made you uncomfortable with my slightly rude and disrespectful attitude." Delia said with a smile.Finding such a significant change, Caroline could only be silent with confusion. Why all of a sudden? She could only respond with a smile, being nice because this time Delia was being nice."Caroline, I'm glad you finally married Uncle. I hope you can live a happy life." Jake said with a smile. This time Jake looked very sincere when he said so. However, Caroline did not want to be fooled again. Jake had been nice to her, but it was because Jake had another purpose when he acted like that."Thank you." That was the only sentence Caroline could say. Because she didn't want her happy day to turn into a bad
"Sir, we found this in Madam's car." One of the men came up to Jared and handed him the tracking device they had found in the car Delia had given her.Jared had expected this. There was no way Delia could have given such an expensive car as a wedding gift so easily. He was sure his sister had a specific purpose when he gave the gift. Now it was answered when they found the tracking device attached to the car."Tape this to the car I usually drive. Not the MyBach I use to go to work, but the car I use when I want to travel with Caroline." Jared gave the order. He wanted to know how far his sister would go. He would never let anyone interfere with his wife's life."Yes, sir.""Is this all you found?""It was on one of the dolls that Madame received." One of the men showed Jared a recording device.Jared accepted the recorder with a furrowed brow. He looked confused, as he had no idea who had given him the doll. Almost all the gifts Caroline received were given right in front of her. He
Caroline woke up in the morning when it was six. She squirmed for a moment, then got up to sit up. She looked around; Jared was no longer there. She didn't know when Jared woke up and left the room. However, she did know that he always woke up in the morning to exercise, have breakfast, and then get ready for the office."Oh my God!" Caroline was surprised when Jared suddenly got up from under the bed. He too seemed to have just woken up.Jared stretched his muscles for a moment, then rubbed his face with both palms."Y-you just woke up?" Caroline asked stammeringly."Yeah, I'm a little sore from sleeping on the floor." Jared answered as he was."Why did you sleep on the floor? The bed is very spacious; we can sleep on the same bed." Caroline asked, not understanding."That's what I'm confused about. Why did you push me off the bed last night? I was sleeping peacefully when suddenly you pushed me down. I thought you didn't want to sleep with me, so I slept downstairs." Jared exp
“Thank you, Uncle.” Caroline smiled widely. She was really happy that she could fulfill her dream of a honeymoon in Hawaii. There was nothing like going to the place of your dreams with the one you love.“Whatever you want.” Jared said with great tenderness. He had been to Hawaii many times, so he was a little bored with the city. However, since it was Caroline’s dream, he had to give in. He didn’t want to spoil the mood by saying that he was bored and wanted to visit a city in another country.The car stopped when they arrived at their destination. A luxury hotel that Jake had booked. It turned out that Jake had prepared everything as well as possible. He chose all the best. He even chose a VIP room in a resort hotel in Hawaii.“I like the atmosphere and the vibe.” Caroline commented. A happy smile was etched on her sweet lips. Her eyes sparkled as she gazed at the surroundings. A gust of wind made her hair loose.Jared loved it when he saw Caroline feeling happy like that. His only
Caroline rose to her feet; she was about to return to the hotel room because she felt that it was not safe to be in a place like this alone. She had often heard that Hawaii was a beautiful city with freedom that people loved. Drinking parties and sex parties are there. However, she did not expect that she would be targeted for sex by a stranger. The trauma of the harassment she received a few months ago has not gone away; now a new trauma has emerged. She was even more afraid to make love."Hey." Jared called out in confusion when he was about to meet Caroline, but she just walked past him.Jared frowned, confused by Caroline's change in attitude. He felt that he had made a mistake in letting Caroline go to the beach alone. He thought that Caroline was upset with him because he didn't accompany her."Caroline! Honey!" Jared turned around; he chased after her and tried to apologize. He grabbed Caroline's wrist, stopping her in her tracks.Caroline was initially about to scream and hit
Caroline woke up after having been unconscious for almost half an hour. Her mental state had not yet stabilized when she woke up. Jared was sitting on the bed, looking at her with a worried look."The doctor said you had a panic attack, which is why you lost consciousness." Jared explained before Caroline could ask.Caroline let out a deep breath. She rose to sit up slowly; her gaze looked so full of sadness and stress. She tried to avoid Jared's gaze. She really felt guilty because she could not be a good wife for Jared. She couldn't give him a romantic honeymoon because those bad memories always came to her when she thought of intimate scenes with her husband."You don't want to tell me what your problem is?" Jared tried to persuade. He really wanted to know what exactly Caroline was hiding from him. He felt like the worst husband in the world because his presence gave his wife fear. How could that be?"Sorry, Uncle. I can't be a good wife to you. Me, I can't serve you in bed be
"Carol, I missed you!" Shopia ran to hug Caroline. After a week spent honeymooning in Hawaii, the newlyweds finally returned to Perth. Shopia was happy to see her best friend back in good health. She was very worried if anything untoward happened there because they only went alone without any supervision. There were no bodyguards, and neither Donny nor Thalius were assistants to be told what to do."I miss you too." Caroline returned the hug.Shopia knew from Donny that Jared and Caroline were going home today, which was why she came to welcome her friends back."I brought you some souvenirs, for Donny too." Caroline said with a smile. She released the hug, then picked up the tote bag in the trunk of the car. The tote bag contained the things she bought in Hawaii.All Caroline could think about was Shopia and Donny. She didn't think about buying souvenirs for other people. Even for her sister-in-law."When am I going to have a niece? You and Mr. Madison must have had a really good tim
