Chapter 82: Frozen
“Alright, I’m going back.”
Cara stood up and said.
The table was a ss, but two of them wiped it together.
“Be careful on the road ho.”
Cole advised her.
Cara looked at him and suddenly asked, “Aren’t you going to ask to stay overnight?”
Cole touched his nose. “I don’t have two beds.”
Cara remained silent and stared at him.
Cole felt goosebumps all over his body. He said helplessly, “I’m afraid that the gun will go off accidentally.”
To be honest…
Cole did not trust his composure.
“Silly!”
Cara suddenly leaned close to Cole and whispered in his ear, “But I’m not afraid.”
The fragrance entered Cole’s nose.
His blood froze at this mont.
He gulped.
Cole suddenly had the urge to pull Cara into his arms.
However, Cara did not give him the chance.
She suddenly stepped back and looked at him with a smile. “But you don’t have a chance now.”
Cole was speechless.
He suddenly wanted to chop off his hand.
Useless! Useless!
I feel terrible!
“I’m going back.”
Cara saw Cole’s condition and smiled even more happily. “Rember to sleep early tonight.”
There was nothing wrong with the content of her words.
But there was a hidden aning in them.
Cole’s expression was as if he felt constipated. He did not continue and said instead, “I’ll walk you out.”
Cara’s mischievous look intensified.
To prevent himself from looking at Cara too much, Cole walked in front of her.
He walked to the door.
When Cole was about to open the door…
“Cole…”
This stunned Cole. “What?”
He turned to look at her.
Cara was very close to him.
“Thank you! I had a good ti tonight.”
Cara looked at him.
The warm breath hit Cole’s face, making his heart itch.
He looked into Cara’s clear black eyes. “ too—”
Suddenly!
Cara looked up and tiptoed.
Her soft lips blocked Cole’s remaining words.
Cole’s eyes widened.
His mind went blank.
It ca and went quickly.
Cara took two steps back, her cheeks flushed.
Cole could not breathe properly. “I—”
“Open the door.”
Cara did not let him finish.
Cole subconsciously opened the door.
Cara walked out directly.
But she had only taken a few steps when…
She turned back again.
“The crayfish you peeled was delicious.”
“But it’s not as delicious as mine.”
Cara sized up Cole and could not help but smile. “Your face is red.”
Cole subconsciously touched his face and felt that it was a little hot.
He saw that Cara’s face was also red. He was about to say, “You…”
“What?”
But Cara tilted her head.
The corridor was dark.
However, the light in the house shone on Cara’s face, flickering.
It made Cara look more delicate than usual.
Cole’s mind went blank.
He suddenly walked forward and pulled her into his arms.
Cara was shocked.
Cole closed the distance between them and whispered, “Why don’t you spend the night here?”
Cara panicked for a mont, but she controlled herself.
She bit her red lips and looked at Cole.
She, who was the domineering one, now looked pitiful.
Cole’s heart softened.
However, for so reason, Cara suddenly recalled Cole’s reply…
Hence, she could not help but smile. “But you don’t have two beds!”
These words instantly destroyed the atmosphere.
Cole was speechless.
If there was a chance, he wanted to seal his mouth with tape.
While Cole was in a daze, Cara broke free of him. “Alright, I’m going back.”
This ti, Cara really left without looking back.
She was panicking.
The mont Cole had pulled her into his arms, she had felt her heart beat several tis faster.
Cole was speechless for a long ti as he watched Cara’s back gradually disappear at the end of the corridor.
After a while.
He cursed firmly, “F*ck!”
His words were clear.
For the first ti, Cole had the urge to kill himself.
***
A black car drove away from the neighborhood.
Inside the car…
Cara looked at the trees and the skyscrapers flying past outside the window and subconsciously touched her lips.
She could not help but smile.
Sitting in the front passenger seat and the main driver seat, Kamila Lawson and Hugh Williams looked relieved.
Martial artists had an astonishing hearing.
They had waited outside the door again.
After the door had opened, they had heard Cole and Cara’s conversation clearly.
***
Cole’s house.
“I’m there.”
It was Cara’s ssage.
“Okay, I just took a shower.”
Cole replied.
Cara responded. “Alright, rest early.”
“You too.”
Cole replied.
He then let out a long breath.
After Cara had left, he had felt agitated.
So he began to clean up the room and distract himself.
After he tidied up the room and opened the window to ventilate, the wind blew away Cara’s scent in the room.
Cole took another cold shower to suppress his restlessness.
He was afraid that the long night would be haunted by Cara’s aura.
After that, Cole cultivated for a while to consolidate the results of today’s dicinal bath. When he felt tired, he planned to go to bed.
On the bed, Cole quickly realized that he was wrong.
He lay on the bed in silence for a while…
There was also the fragrance of Cara.
Cole could not sleep again.
***
The next afternoon.
Halfway through his dicinal bath, Cole received a ssage from Uncle Hugh.
“Mr. Stone, your property has been registered under a different na because the Yeagers arranged for Jane Smith to commit suicide.”
Cole was stunned.
Only then did he understand.
Why did Cara take the agreent away yesterday?
To be honest, Cole had thought that Cara was jealous.
But from the looks of it, the other party was going to help him settle Jane’s remaining property share.
Otherwise, if the news of Jane’s death spread and Susan ca to cause trouble, Cole would have to divert his attention again.
However…
Cole was also a little surprised.
This was the strength of a large corporation.
It had only been a short while, but the procedure had already been completed.
As for Jane’s suicide, it was a very simple matter.
This was because Charles Yeager was the one who had attacked Jane in the surveillance caras. If the Yeagers did not take the initiative to settle it, it would have an extrely bad impact on them.
The fourth son of the Yeagers was a promiscuous man, and he actually killed a young girl?!
Cole believed that the other families would be very willing to use such headlines to criticize the Yeager family.
Thinking of this, Cole could not help but smile. He sent a ssage to Cara. “Thank you!”
Cara did not reply.
She was probably busy.
Cole lay on the ground and continued to quietly adjust his aura.
Then, he took a deep breath and sat back down.
“Ah…”
Cole gritted his teeth and started cultivating with a pained expression.
