Chapter 14 Let me take you home

"Oh my goodness, how could someone be like this?"

One of them is a person who believes in Stella very much. When he saw Nicholas come to such a big occasion and tried to protect Caroline, not only did he speak up for Caroline, but he had previously believed in Stella very much and did not want to believe in Caroline.

"Yes, it's really low to intentionally lose the bracelet that their own mother gave them just to frame someone else."

Others began to discuss this incident, and when Kindness heard what everyone was saying, they realized they had lost face. They quickly picked up their bracelet and quietly walked away.

Furthermore, if Kindness were to speak out about what happened in the past, it would be very embarrassing for them. Thinking back to that time made them feel somewhat lost. If Kindness were to reveal their own involvement, it would be even worse. Moreover, Nicholas was still present, and if they knew that Kindness went to jail for them, it would not be good. Instead of succeeding in framing Nicholas, it would only make Nicholas like Kindness even more.

"Hey, where did Kindness go?"

Someone noticed that the despicable Kindness had left and others began to search for them.

"It's no wonder that after doing something like that, they may not have the face to stay at this gathering."

When Kindness left earlier, Caroline saw them go, but did not want to bring up the incident again. After all, it was a permanent scar in their heart, and reopening it would only cause more pain. However, if there was another opportunity, Caroline would make sure that Kindness regretted their actions.

Although the incident was resolved, Caroline was clearly not as popular as before. Many people now knew about their time in jail, and it was inevitable that people would think that Caroline was a bad person who may have done other immoral things and deserved to be framed.

Nicholas saw that their so-called friends were not willing to stay, and they left calmly. After all, this social circle was very wicked, and if they were not powerful enough, these people would not have been fawning over them like little dogs.

Caroline was very unhappy. They couldn't forget what happened back then, and even though they had started a new life, they still had nightmares at night. Why did they take the blame for Nicholas back then? They should have let Nicholas bear the consequences themselves.

"Oh, I embarrassed you today, didn't I? Maybe I should go home first."

Nicholas was thinking about something when suddenly she felt that she had embarrassed herself too much today. She used to be respected and admired, radiating with confidence, but because of her arrival, she turned into a mess. Perhaps these people would not cooperate with her anymore.

"That's not true. What are you talking about? You are my beloved, how could you embarrass me? It's my fault that I didn't protect you well, which made you unhappy today. You should not think too much about it."

When Nicholas said this, Caroline felt a little relieved. Although she couldn't forget what happened, it was good to have someone to comfort her. After all, they both knew each other's feelings well, and no one was dragging anyone down.

"Okay, don't think about it anymore. Let's go eat something we want and go home. If you don't want to eat it, I'll take you somewhere else."

Nicholas was worried when he saw that Caroline still didn't smile. Previously, Caroline was very lively, but after what happened at the banquet, he felt guilty for letting his beloved suffer from other people's malicious attacks. Although it was resolved in the end, he still felt lingering fears.

"Okay, let's go home. The atmosphere here is too depressing."

When Caroline smiled a little, Nicholas was overjoyed. After all, it was his comfort that made her smile. He hoped to continue to accompany her in the future and not let his beloved be attacked or slandered by anyone.

It was cold outside when they came out, so Nicholas took off his suit and put it on Caroline. The two smiled at each other, and although some people thought that Caroline was not a good person, they saw this scene and felt that the two were still happy.

"Let me take you home."

The two talked and laughed all the way, as if they wanted to share all their unhappiness with each other. Nicholas understood Caroline very well, so the two completely opposite people quickly developed feelings at the right time.

Although Caroline's past was a bit sad, as someone who loved her, Nicholas would never look down on her. Besides, truly kind people will always receive good karma in the end.

They soon arrived at their destination, and the two seemed reluctant to part.

"Alright, let's go back and get a good night's sleep today. Come find me at my company tomorrow, I have something to tell you."

Nicholas wanted to help Caroline regain her confidence and have an independent job to give her a different life. That's why he wanted her to work at his company, but he couldn't tell her for now.

Caroline didn't expect Nicholas to agree so readily, but she also didn't expect that the job he arranged for her was at Johnson Corporation.

When Nicholas led Caroline into company and took her to the human resources department, many people looked at them in surprise. Caroline tried to break free from his hand several times, but he held on even tighter.

James also saw his boss act a bit childish for the first time and could only silently follow behind the two of them.

"Who is that girl? Mr. Nicholas... Mr. Nicholas actually brought her in..." The female staff at the front desk were in shock, as they had all fantasized about the "domineering CEO falling in love with me" kind of cliche story. Caroline's appearance shattered their illusions.

"Oh my God! Big news! I didn't know Mr. Nicholas had a girlfriend! When did this happen?!" The female staff were chattering away, and the front desk suddenly became noisy.
