Secrets Of The Sullivan Sisters

Chapter 101

Caroline felt extremely uneasy. The strawberry–flavored ice cream felt like a ticking bomb. She couldn’t

throw it away, but at the same time, she couldn’t keep it with her as well.

Hence, she could only start eating.

The man who was driving the car glanced in the rearview mirror. He noticed the girl grabbing the

strawberry–flavored ice cream and sticking her tongue out to lick it. Apparently, she was taking small

bits out of it.

His engorged Adam’s apple bobbed up and down. At the same time, his eyes darkened

even more.

At that moment, Jacob leaned over. “Carol, is the ice cream tasty? Let me have a bite.”

Jacob wanted to cat the ice cream in Caroline’s hands.

The brakes could be heard screeching the next second loudly as the Rolls–Royce Phantom suddenly

pulled to a stop by the road.

Jacob, who wanted to eat the ice cream, ended up crashing head–first into the dessert due to inertia.

Jacob’s face was instantly covered with ice cream, making him look like a hilarious.

clown.

“What the hell? Uncle Nathan, why did you suddenly step on the brake?”

Nathan replied lightly, “A truck was heading in our direction earlier, but I didn’t notice it. Get out of the

car and wash your face with some water.”

That was the only solution for now, so Jacob could only open the car door and get out

of the car.

At that moment, Nathan added, “Take the ice cream with you. Don’t taint my car with

it.”

“Oh, okay.” Jacob took away the ice cream and even pulled out a few tissue papers to wipe Caroline’s

hands clean. “Stay here, Carol. I’ll be back once I’m done cleaning up.”

Now that there were only three people remaining in the luxury car, Caroline could feel the atmosphere

that was slightly tense. She wanted to get out of the car and help Jacob.

However, as soon as she touched the car door, the man’s voice drifted from the front. “Haven’t you

broken up with Jacob yet?”

Caroline raised her head and looked at Nathan in front of her.

Nathan took out a cigarette from the cigarette bag and trapped it between his thin lips. Then, he

covered the cigarette with both hands and lit it with a lighter. The scarlet flame flickered slightly at the

action. He exhaled a mouthful of smoke before gazing back from behind the wisps of smoke.

Caroline’s heart tensed up. “Not yet.”

Shirley immediately piped up from the passenger seat, “Honey, Caroline, and Mr. Faraday just started

dating, so they’re still in the honeymoon phase. Just look at how much Mr. Faraday likes her. How can

they possibly break up? Caroline is still your nephew’s girlfriend, you know!”

Nathan slowly rolled down the car window, allowing the night breeze to pour into the car. His left elbow

was supported on the door frame, whereas the hand that held the cigarette was placed on the steering

wheel. A low chuckle came rumbling out of his throat.

“Heh.”

Caroline looked at Nathan, who ignored Shirley’s words. Instead, he stared at her through the rearview

mirror while making a comment with a light tug of his lips that didn’t resemble a smile. “You’re such an

ingrate incapable of getting close to the one who raised you.”

How could he continue raising her?

She would never be close to him, no matter how much he did for her.

He would never raise her ever again.

It was a waste of money, time, and effort. Why would he continue doing that?

He’d rather raise anyone other than Caroline.

Nathan had called Caroline an ingrate who couldn’t get close to him.

Caroline felt as if something had stung her heart. The palpitation made her heart feel at numbing pain

that couldn’t be described with words.

This awful feeling spread from her limbs, threatening to engulf her,

Caroline turned her head to look out the window.

At that time, Jacob returned from the outside. “I’m done, Uncle Nathan. Let’s go home.”

Nathan flicked the ash from his cigarette. “The night has just begun. Why are you in a

ני

hurry? We’re not going home tonight. Instead, we’re staying in a hotel.”

Hotel?

Caroline could feel a slight sense of unease. She had a feeling that something might happen tonight.

It would be a very long night.

When the group of four arrived at Faraday Hotel, the hotel manager rushed out to welcome them. “Mr.

Faraday, how many rooms should we prepare for you?”

Shirley immediately said, “Let’s stay in the same room, Honey.”

Nathan didn’t object to that suggestion. He agreed to stay in the same room as Shirley.

Then, he strode into the elevator with wide steps. Meanwhile, Shirley looked at Caroline with a smile

while saying, “Caroline, your room will be next to ours. Please don’t take it to heart if Honey and I end

up causing too loud of a ruckus at night.”
