Kerwing that she had done something wrong, Caroline didn’t dare to annoy this man. She nodded obediently and said, “Oh”
Everyone in Diehurst knew that Brian was a vengeful person. She knew she had to talk to him to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.

watched as Brian look Caroline away, and no one dared to stop him.
When they were gone, another round of gossip emerged
“Something’s not right with this. The richest man in Dioburst saved a former rich girl?”

“Did Caroline Green do something heinous to provoke him?”
“I heard the last woman who provoked Mr. Luther had disappeared without a trace”
None of the reporters dared to stop Brian from taking their interviewee. Instead, they agreed that he wasn’t here to save Caroline, but to arrest her, who had provoked him.
Their speculation wasn’t far from the truth
The moment Caroline entered Brian’s car, she tried to explain herself. But then, she felt a dagger pressed against her neck and someone asking her coldly, “Who sent you?”
Caroline looked harmless and innocent, but Brian had seen the surveillance video. He knew how strong she was
How could she cross the electrified iron gate so easily otherwise?
Caroline froze for a moment. She turned her head and met Brian’s fiery red eyes. She felt that his aura was quite similar to hers
“Mr. Luther, I apologize for intruding into your territory by accident last night. However, I also became your antidote,” she said matter–of–factly
Even though he had tortured her for a whole night like a madman, she decided to forgive him because he neutralized the drug in her system as
Brian was puzzled and Caroline’s confidence irritated him further. His breathing became heavier. “The antidote?”

Once, his servants discovered him in the midst of an outbreak. They were so scared that they called him a lunatic.
His eyes darkened with emotion. He didn’t want to recall the past.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, Caroline asked, “Old man, can I get off now?”
“Follow me back first” Brian said. He then closed his eyes to rest and ignored her.
“Old man, are you interested in me?” Caroline moved closer to him, but soon received Brian’s murderous gaze.
In an instant, she sat up straight like a good girl.
What an irritable old man! But since she had chosen him, she figured she would accept all his flaws!
The Luther Mansion.
Brian ordered Zac to bring a box of contraceptive pills and placed it on the table. He said expressionlessly. “Eat it and you can leave.”
Now sober, Caroline realized what he meant.
She didn’t think it was a big deal to take contraceptives. Her gaze fell on the box of pills and she said, “Don’t worry, old man. I’m not going to cling

She made it clear that she wasn’t going to use their night together to latch onto him as some gold diggers would with the rich and powerful. She wanted nothing more than to keep her distance from him

Brian sat on the couch and watched her take the pills with a cold expression.

But, the less trouble the better. She grabbed the box of contraceptive pills on the table and was about to toss a pill into her mouths when an urgent shout came from the door. “Don’t eat it! Don’t kill my grandchild!”
The word “grandchild frightened Caroline so much that her hands trembled and the pill fell to the ground.

Cole was so dumbfounded that she couldn’t say anything.
“M–Mr. Luther, what are you doing here?
Looking at the old man, she remembered that she often saw him at her mentor’s place. How did he suddenly become the father of the head of the Luther Group!
Troy didn’t have time to explain. “Girl, I’ll make this short. Im Brian Luther’s father”
Caroline was shocked.
The old man who often stole her snacks at her mentor’s place was the father of the richest man in Diohurst?
Once she connected the dots, she realized what the old man was here for. She pointed at herself and then at Brian, explaining. “I don’t need him to be responsible.”
What responsibility was there to take, anyway?
