After Her Engagement Annulled, the Weak Rich Daughter Becomes a Big Shot! - Chapter 69

69 I’m Not Laughing At You

Under her gaze, George had no choice but to press the doorbell. Then, he saw Caroline, the evil woman, walk out of the apartment.

Although George was a little naïve and silly, he had the intuition of a small animal. The last time he saw Caroline, he was more focused on why Caroline was in the club and her relationship with his brother. Hence, he did not observe her in detail.

This time, after knowing that Caroline might be the legendary black witch, he subconsciously observed her the moment she appeared. Then, he realized that Caroline had a strong, wild, and aggressive aura.

Previously, he had felt a similar feeling from his big brother, Edwin. However, compared to the sharpness of his big brother, Caroline’s offensive ability was more like a highly defensive shield. She wouldn’t take the initiative to attack others, but she would never let her guard down.

!!
When Caroline’s eyes were fixed on you, you would feel as if you were being controlled by her without any blind spots. It was as if your every move was under her surveillance. If you did anything to offend her, she would immediately knock you to the ground.

This was Caroline’s defensive instinct that she had trained from years of harsh training and her active experience on the battlefield. Even though she had a different body now, these instincts were already engraved in her soul. So, when she didn’t deliberately hide them, they would naturally come out.

After realizing this, George had the urge to run away, but he failed.

“Since you’re here, if you don’t mind, come in and have a seat.” Caroline looked behind him. After seeing the relatively large car and George’s not-so-small physique, she had an idea.

George crossed his arms and raised his chin. “Your shabby building looks dirty and old. I don’t want to go in. What if I dirty my latest sneakers?”

Caroline looked at him from head to toe and almost made George’s hair stand on end. She provoked, “I thought you didn’t dare to.”

George was furious. “Why wouldn’t I dare? It’s just an old apartment. Open the door and I’ll go in immediately.”

“Yes, I also think that George Anderson is not so timid.” Caroline clapped her hands and opened the metal door of the apartment, inviting him in.

George subconsciously glanced at the driver and gave him a subtle look, telling him to be more alert and to quickly protect him and run if the situation went wrong.

However, because his eyes were too obscure, the driver didn’t get what he meant at all. Instead, he looked at him with a puzzled expression.

George’s eyes widened, but he didn’t dare to say it out loud. He could only angrily glare at the driver again, and the driver was even more confused. As a result, the two of them looked at each other.

Caroline burst into laughter when she saw this. She couldn’t help but feel a little envious. With a brother like this, Edwin’s daily life should be filled with a lot of fun.

“You’re laughing at me?” When he heard Caroline’s laughter, George turned around and stared at Caroline.

Caroline held back the smile on her face and tried to be serious. “I’m not laughing at you.”

George didn’t believe her. “You’re lying. I clearly saw you smile.”

Caroline could not help but smile. “This is because I encountered something happy.”

George was puzzled. “What happy thing?”

“Oh, I’m moving to a new house. Does this count as a housewarming?”

To George, who had many houses, “What’s so happy about moving?” He had thought that she would say that she was so happy because she was getting engaged to his brother.

“I bought a house with my own money, so of course I’ll be happy to move in.” Although, strictly speaking, she had used the convenience of her original body to swindle this money from Balor, the new house that she had just bought was indeed quite meaningful to her. This meant that she once again had a place in this world that completely belonged to her. It was a place where she did not need to hide or rely on others to live in peace.

George, who was still a student who lived off his family, could not understand her feelings. He could only accept her explanation with a pout. “Hmph, you do need to move. Otherwise, if word gets out, people will only think that my big brother is abusing you.”
