Chapter 72 She Was So Cold
Madison was suddenly speechless. She felt embarrassed, but she could not contradict Caroline.
Caroline added, "I owe you nothing from beginning to end. Do you think I really want to intercede for you?"
In the past, Madison thought Caroline was a jellyfish and was dopey. It turned out that Caroline had never been weak or dopey.
Madison had a problem with Caroline in the first place. Later, Madison became even more jealous of Caroline because of Antonio. If Caroline had been Marissa or any other excellent woman, Madison's jealousy would have turned into envy.
There was a fine line between envy and jealousy.
Madison thought, "I am obviously better than Caroline in everything. Why could Antonio only see Caroline but not me?
Caroline is a good-for-nothing bitch who'll do anything for money, but I keep myself pure. Why does Antonio only have Caroline in his eyes?"
However, if this person had not been Caroline, but another excellent woman, the result would have been completely different.
Caroline's mediocrity and poverty became the original sin.
But it turned out that Caroline had never been dopey and she knew everything.
Madison was silent for a moment and then she said, "Then you are still hypocritical. If you were not willing to do it, why did you do it? You just want to show your good side to Big Boss, don't you?"
Caroline did not explain. There were a lot of things that didn't need to be explained to an unrelated person. "Just leave. Don't bother me again." As Caroline spoke, she closed the gate in Madison's face.
"Wait!" The gate was flung open. Caroline frowned and thought, "Is this never gonna stop?"
"I...Since you put it that way, I believe you pleaded with Big Boss for me." Madison glared at Caroline.
"Since you can help me beg Big Boss to spare my life, why can't you help me beg Big Boss to let me off the hook completely?"
Madison's implication was to question Caroline if Caroline could beg Big Boss to spare her life, why not just beg Big Boss to be magnanimous and let her get away with it?
Caroline didn't expect Madison to ask the question. Caroline was silent for a long time. Then she said,
"I don't care if you die of illness. I don't care if you die of a car accident. I don't care if you piss off Big Boss again and are pinched to death.
But this time, after all, it has something to do with me. And I don't want anything to do with anyone else's death. No matter who harmed me, even a stranger, as long as her life and death have something to do with me, whether directly or indirectly, I will go to plead with Big Boss.
Because I don't want to spend the rest of my life feeling guilty that someone died because of me."
At least Caroline could afford to pay the price that man offered, but she could not afford to pay for a life.
"Madison, in other words, if you had only offended Big Boss that day, and I had nothing to do with it, I promise I would never have interceded for you that day. I wouldn't say a word for you even if I didn't have to pay any price."
Caroline said these to Madison. Even Caroline herself seemed to believe this reason.
It was just that, deep down inside, there was a pride that Caroline probably didn't even know she had. Caroline thought, "Who's Madison? Madison is nobody! Madison is not Delores. Madison doesn't deserve to make me feel indebted for the rest of my life!"
There was such pride in Caroline's heart. Now she was weak, miserable and mediocre. Three years in prison put her once proud head down hard. But what could not be destroyed was what was in her bones.
Caroline had long forgotten how confident she was. However, some things were deeply hidden in her heart and melted into her bones.
Madison was pushed out by Caroline. When the gate closed, Madison was still in a daze.
Madison's ear was ringing. Today, what shocked Madison most was not Caroline's words which showed that she saw through everything, but Caroline's last extremely cold words!
Caroline said that if Madison was going to die and Caroline had nothing to do with it, Caroline would never intercede for Madison, even if Caroline did not have to pay any price.
How cold Caroline was. What kind of person could be so cold?
Yes, Caroline was cold. She was a humble yes woman. But she was so cold in matters of life and death.
Caroline was a paradox and made people feel weird.
Suddenly, everything about Caroline came to Madison's mind. At that moment, Madison seemed to be able to understand why Caroline was lying on her stomach like a dog without any dignity and why Caroline did things that no one else would have done. Because Caroline didn't care about herself.
Madison had only a one-sided view. Caroline couldn't care about anyone, including herself.
The rest of Caroline's life was about fulfilling a girl's dream.
Madison was in a trance when she left. She still hated Caroline, because Mr. Tucker harmed her so badly for Caroline.
Madison thought, "Whether Caroline's really pathetic or not, at the very least, she would do any degrading things for money. It's true. It's a secret that the entire staff of Royal Club knows.
Mr. Tucker was just clouded by Caroline.
I will let Mr. Tucker see that Caroline's nature was abject!"
It was late at night.
A dark figure stood on the dark landing.
Madison started.
"Why, why haven't you left?"
Cayne folded his arms and leaned against the wall. He looked at Madison sideways and smiled. "I accidentally left my phone in your coat pocket."
As Cayne spoke, he reached for Madison's coat pocket.
"Hey! What are you doing? Are you going to rob? I am gonna call..."
Madison looked at Cayne dully before she could finish her words. Cayne's long hand pulled a phone from her coat pocket, but the phone wasn't hers.
"You...When...How?"
"I told you I left it in your pocket accidentally."
Madison wanted to scold Cayne for lying to her, but she instinctively felt that she could not provoke this man. She had offended Big Boss. Now she felt nervous when she saw a handsome and rich man.
Of course, the phone would not "accidentally" fall into Madison's coat pocket. Cayne passed Madison on his way down the stairs. He had a very good memory. He recognized Madison as the woman who was in the ward with Caroline that day. Then he clicked a button on his phone while he was at it and "accidentally" left his phone in Madison's coat pocket.
Cayne said to Madison, "Oh, and thank you for giving me firsthand information." In this way, Cayne could understand his "prey" Caroline more clearly. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
