Chapter 9
Nathan put his arms around Caroline’s shoulder and whispered, “Let’s sleep.”
“Okay. Good night, Caroline said softly to him.
Caroline thought it was difficult to fall asleep, but the next day when she opened her eyes, she found it
was already six o’clock.
Shirley told Caroline to leave before six o’clock. The latter was not allowed to sleep. for a minute
longer! Therefore, Caroline was running late.
She tried to get up. However, Caroline noticed that she was still in Nathan’s arms. The man’s strong
arm held onto her thin and soft waist, and they held each other intimately.
Caroline’s eyelashes fluttered. Then, she gently withdrew from Nathan’s arms.
However, when she moved, Nathan woke up. He tightened his grip and held Caroline tightly in his
arms. He asked sleepily and lazily, “Why are you waking up so early? Sleep with me for a little longer.”
Nathan had been suffering from insomnia but did not expect to sleep so well with Caroline in his arms.
Nathan thought the woman in his arms smelled good and was as soft as a pillow. Therefore, he wanted
to sleep a little longer while holding Caroline.
Caroline did not dare to sleep anymore. She could feel Shirley was already waiting outside the door
angrily. It was as if the latter was ready to fight her. She replied, “I’ll get up first. You should sleep a little
longer. I’m going to do some housework.”
Nathan closed his eyes and smirked. He asked, “Don’t we have enough. housekeepers around the
house? Why do you, Mrs. Faraday, need to do the housework?”
Nathan always assumed that Caroline was Shirley, but she was not.
“I really need to get up,” Caroline said as she broke free from his grip and sat up.
After Caroline withdrew from Nathan’s arms, he stopped feeling sleepy as well. He slowly opened his
eyes and soon regained some clarity in his gaze.
Nathan looked at the slender figure in front of him. Caroline quickly dressed up and got out of bed.
Then, she left the room.
15:41 Wed, 31 Jan-
Nathan frowned. He did not understand why Caroline left so quickly. It seemed that she was in a hurry.
She did not even want to sleep with him for a little longer.
After Caroline touched up the scar on her face with makeup, she came out and saw Shirley with a
gloomy expression. Shirley pointed at the time and scolded, “Caroline, it’s 6:05 a.m. now. Why did you
sleep with my husband for five more minutes? Are his arms so warm that you’re reluctant to leave?”
Shirley seemed to have seen right through Caroline. In fact, Caroline got up very early every day and
never slept in, but Nathan’s arms were wide and warm. That morning, Caroline was wound around him
tightly like an octopus.
“Since you don’t trust me, don’t let me sleep with your husband next time,
retorted Caroline.

She was so angry that she was about to explode. Last night, Shirley could not sleep. a wink. As long as
she thought of Caroline lying in Nathan’s arms, she felt herself going crazy with jealousy.
Nevertheless, Shirley had something more important to do. She asked, “What perfume are you
wearing? Give me the perfume.”
Caroline thought, “Perfume? Why are Shirley and Nathan asking me about the same thing?”
Caroline raised her eyebrows and took out a bottle of perfume. She said, “Here you
go.”
Shirley was shocked. She could not believe it was Cienna Care!
Cienna Care was a top international luxury perfume skincare brand. It was said that the fragrance of
Cienna Care could enchant people’s hearts. It could make all the men fall in love with the woman with
the scent.
Cienna Care would launch its limited edition perfume every quarter. At that time, Yarwood’s upper
echelons and socialites would compete aggressively to buy the perfume.
The bottle of perfume Caroline took out was a limited edition of “An Encounter In Spring” of the Cienna
Care line that season. Shirley and her mother had wanted to buy it for a long time but failed to buy
even a bottle.
Nevertheless, Shirley did not believe Caroline could so easily take out a bottle of
23
Cienne Care and show it to her.
Shirley asked, “Caroline, how did you get Cienna Care?”
