Hearing Caroline's words, Brennan agreed.
At first, Brennan planned to ask Selina out for dinner but Caroline wanted to meet her immediately. "Let's just have an afternoon tea. There's no need for dinner." Brennan was soft-hearted, so he agreed to Caroline's request. Besides, it was just a short meetup.
Brennan called Selina.
Selina agreed.
She was free anyway.
She wanted to ask Matthew to pick her up from the afternoon tea and planned to tell Matthew about her pregnancy examination on the ride home.
Brennan and Caroline reached the clubhouse before Selina did and booked a private room.
Caroline handed a bottle of water to Brennan, "Drink swater. The weather is hot," Brennan took the water and drank it.
Soon he began to feel dizzy and his eyesight turned blurry.
Brennan looked at Caroline and said, "Why do I feel a little uncomfortable? I feel sleepy," Caroline's voice was indifferent as she said, "If you want to sleep, then lie down. Selina's not here yet, she won't be coming this early," There was a sofa nearby.
Brennan knew that it wouldn't look good for him to be asleep when Selina arrived, but he couldn't fight the drowsiness and figured that he would feel much better after lying down for a bit.
Brennan walked over to the sofa.
However, as soon as Brennan lied down, the overwhelming sleepiness engulfed him and he shut his eyes. A black Bentley stopped outside of the clubhouse.
Selina got down from the car.
She was a little suspicious.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhy did Brennan ask her out to have afternoon tea at the clubhouse? Plus, he booked a private room.
Selina felt that something wasn't right.
However, she soon figured out what was going on.
She told Brennan about her pregnancy the last tand Brennan probably guessed that the father of the baby was Matthew. Brennan also probably heard about what had happened between Matthew and Saoirse and wanted to know more about everything from Selina.
There was a private room in the clubhouse. It was suitable for more private conversations.
When Selina arrived at the private room, Selina pushed the door open.
She did not notice Caroline hiding behind the door at all.
There was no one in the room.
Selina was stunned for a moment.
Hadn't Brennan arrived yet? That was impossible. Hadn't Brennan sent her a text saying that he'd arrived just a while ago? Selina called Brennan.
Brennan's ringtone echoed throughout the private room.
Selina followed the sound of the ringtone and saw Brennan lying on the sofa.
She walked over and found that Brennan had actually fallen asleep.
Selina was at a loss for words.
She felt helpless.
Why was Brennan sleeping when he had asked her out for afternoon tea? She shoved Brennan, "Brennan, I'm here. Wake up," There was no response from Brennan.
"Click." A crisp sound suddenly cfrom behind Selina.
Caroline locked the door of the room from the outside.
Hearing the sound behind her, Selina turned around.
She saw Caroline.
Under the dim light of the room, Caroline's face was as pale as a ghost's.
Selina was startled.
"What are you doing here?" Selina stood up suddenly.
Caroline smiled, "Selina Whitlock. Long tno see," Caroline flashed her pearly white teeth as she grinned, making her look somewhat menacing.
Selina glanced at Brennan and soon figured out what was going on.
"It was you who luredhere. What did you do to Brennan?" "I just fed him ssleeping pills." Caroline had no hatred towards Brennan, so she wouldn't do anything to harm him. Selina breathed a sigh of relief.
If it was just sleeping pills, it was not a big deal.
Selina looked coldly at Caroline, "I didn't expect that we would fail to find you in America. Who knew you cover to Agaphen City. Just nice, at least we won't have to look high and low for you in America," Caroline's gaze darkened.
It turned out that Selina had indeed sent someone to America to catch her! Caroline laughed loudly.
Her laughter could send chills down anyone's spine.
She pointed at Selina, "Oh, Selina, it's really you that sent someone to catch me," Selna's eyebrows furrowed together into a tight knot.
Selina felt that Caroline was acting a little strange, especially the way she laughed. For sreason, Selina felt as if a ghost was standing in front of her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSelina's voice turned colder, "I know that you have been staying with Reid in Agaphen City all the time. I've wanted you to cback here so that you could givean explanation!" Although it was Matthew who sent people to capture Caroline, Selina felt that there was no need for her to tell that to Caroline.
After all, Matthew's troupes were Selina's troupes.
Caroline finally stopped laughing. Her entire body emanated an icy aura, "Explanation? Who do you think you are doing demand an explanation from me? It's you that owesan explanation. You have to givean explanation!" Selina's face was ice-cold, "Caroline, why are you not able to see things through even until now? I admit it was my fault in the beginning and I've explained everything to you. It's your choice not to believe me. Your unreasonable perverseness is what led you to where you are today. Haven't you realized your mistakes?" Caroline stared intensely at Selina, "Realize my mistake? I want to tear your bones apart and eat your flesh," This woman had killed her father. Caroline wanted Selina to die a tragic death.
Selina felt extremely disappointed.
Her once close friend had reached the point of no return.
"Where is Reid now?" Selina suddenly asked.
Caroline sneered, "Do you think I'll tell you?" Caroline had no idea where Reid was, and even if she did, she wouldn't tell Selina! Looking at Caroline, Selina said, "It doesn't matter if you don't say it. We will find Reid, you..." Selina paused.
She thought of Lothar.
She was not sure if she could get any information out of Caroline, but the least she could do was try.
"Lothar was captured by Reid. Do you know anything about this?" Selina asked.
Selina then suddenly turned around and said, "I'm going to see if Brennan has woken up," She walked towards Brennan and quickly sent a text message.
"Cquick," Selina typed and pressed the send button.
She bent over to check if Brennan was awake or not.
Just then Caroline's voice rang out behind Selina, "Of course I know about Lothar," Selina's whole body froze.
She quickly turned around to look at Caroline, "How is Lothar? Where is he now?"
Caroline sneered sarcastically, "It seems that Reid is right. You really care about Lothar Althor colluded with Reid to betray you, you still care about him so much. You are really a b*tch!" "Shut up!" Selina's face darkened,
"Do you think I'll believe what you וניד say? Do you think I'll believe that Lothar worked for Reid? I don't believe a single word from him Lothar is not such a perset swnevelhim!" Caroline's smile becmore sarcastic.
She looked coldly at Selina, "If you don't believe me, then forget it, but I'll let you in on a little secret. Lothar is already dead. He was beaten to death by Reid and thrown into the sea," X
