Chapter 43 The Reason That Made Bentley Goes Abroad
Chapter 43 The Reason Why Bentley Goes Abroad
"Caroline, tell me the truth!" Marissa wasn''t someone that could be easily fooled by Caroline. She
asked with a grim look, "So, you aren''t getting days off because you are feeling tired?"
After saying that, Marissa picked up her phone and looked at Caroline, "It''s fine that you don''t want
to say anything. I''ll call Mr. Shawn directly."
Marissa was very worried and therefore she thought of such a stupid move.
"Marissa, Mr. Shawn won''t care about me."
Marissa was stunned for a moment because what Caroline had said was so true.
Marissa suddenly recalled that Bentley was the one who treated Caroline most cruelly.
She was afraid that if she called and told him that Caroline hit her head and got injured, he would
just be indifferent.
"Okay, Callie. You win. I won''t call Mr. Shawn. I''ll call the manager of your PR Department."
Caroline''s face turned pale instantly. Then she said, "Don''t call Ms. Zachary." Marissa was stunned.
She didn''t know that Caroline was so afraid of Ms. Zachary. Caroline looked pale and begged
Marissa, "Marissa, please don''t call Ms. Zachary."
Ms. Zachary already didn''t like her in the first ce. If this caused more hatred from Ms. Zachary,
Caroline would be transferred from her PR department. Then, she would be unable to raise the
huge sum of 7 million dors to pay back that man.
"I hit the doorknob."
"How did you bump onto the doorknob?" Marissa was very shrewd. How could a person bump onto
the doorknob suddenly?
"When I went back that day, it rained suddenly. I felt dizzy and light-headed after I got caught in the
rain." After all, Caroline wanted to cover everything that Madison did.
She wasn''t trying to protect Madison nor did she feel sorry for Madison. She just didn''t want to be
hated by anyone because of that.
She was scared.
Just Bentley alone was enough to make her life upside down.
The feeling of being hated by someone was killing her.
Marissa looked at Caroline, who was in front of her thoroughly as if she was weighing the reliability
of Caroline''s words.
After a while, Marissa changed to a softer approach and said, "The injury on your forehead hasn''t
healed yet. You should go back and rest. Onlye back to work after it''spletely healed. I''ll
inform your manager."
"I don''t want to."
Except for drinking, Caroline, who had always been obedient to everything resisted Marissa face-to-
face. Marissa was stunned and said, "Listen to me."
"I don''t want to. I''m fine."
"You are not in good health and you still have stitches on your forehead. "
"Marissa, if you really care about me, please offer me more jobs."
It was the sentence that made Marissa feel distressed and sorry at the same time for the person in
front of her.
Though people all considered Caroline as a shameless and unprincipled person, Marissa knew she
was unyielding in nature. Marissa rubbed her brows and said, "You may leave now." Even if she
stopped Caroline this time, she would probably try another way to make more money.
Marissa did have the 7 million dors that she could give to Caroline. But, she knew that if her boss,
Bentley found out, he would be giving her a hard time.
After Caroline left, Marissa nced at the check on the table. She transferred 14 thousand dors
from her ount immediately to the bank card that Bentley gave to Caroline.
Although the bank was closed, people like them always had connections to get their business done
outside of working hours.
As for the check, Marissa stuffed it into her safe box.
In New Xoford.
It wasn''t in the same time zone as Lehcaster. It was daytime.
The meeting room of the New Xoford branch was located on the 65th floor of the skyscraper. A man
was sitting in the power seat of the meeting room. When the mobile phone on the meeting room
table vibrated, the man nced down at the screen of his mobile phone. Then, he narrowed his
eyes.
While the blond-haired Clodonese was presenting his report, that man reached out to pick up his
mobile phone on the conference table and clicked on the unread text.
That was a bank remittance text message. The man seemed to be upset about the amount of
money.
He stood up in a switch and gave the audience a shock. They all sat upright immediately and the
Clodonese, who was reporting was so frightened that his voice stopped abruptly. He was worried
that he might have said something wrong and offended his boss.
That man paced to the French window, stretched out his hand, and dialed a number. "Du-doo", after
two rings, the call was connected.
"Who gave her the money?"
The cold voice was transmitted through the microphone to Marissa who was in Royal Club.

Marissa was caught in surprise. But then she understood in the next second. It was about the
remittance of 14 thousand dors given by Caroline to Mr. Shawn''s bank card. The mobile phone
that was linked to the bank card belonged to Mr. Shawn himself.
Once the money was remitted, Mr. Shawn would be able to receive the remittance text after a while
due to the time difference.
"It''s a new customer."
Marissa tried her best to speak in a business-like manner without hiding anything.
"What did she do this time?"
The question sounded a bit inexplicable, but Marissa understood Bentley''s implication. He wanted
to know why someone gave Caroline the 14 thousand dors and what she had done in exchange.
After hesitating for a while, Marissa didn''t know whether she should say it or not.
The handsome man started to be impatient with Marissa''s hesitation and silence. He asked, "Are
you trying to hide something on her behalf?"
"Caroline didn''t do anything that crosses the line." Marissa couldn''t figure out what Bentley was
thinking. Her boss was a deep thinker. But she also knew that if Bentley became ruthless, no one in
Lehcaster could bear it. Therefore, she tried her best to say euphemistically, "Caroline just kissed
that man."
Marissa felt that shouldn''t be a big deal. In Royal Club, a kiss wasn''t really a big deal. Although she
was a little worried, she didn''t think that Caroline could provoke her cold boss again by only that.
In New Xoford, the man cut off the call coldly.
His expression turned even colder. He looked out the window and no one knew what he was
thinking. In the meeting room, everyone was frightened. He was a deep thinker and no one could
read him. The oppressive atmosphere at that moment was overwhelming and it was enough to
make an eight-foot-tall man out of breath.
A big guy like the Clodonese had also shrunk his shoulders and tried not to make any movement.
Bentley stared out of the window with a cold expression. His handsome face looked as cold as ice.
A smirk shed on his face when he thought of the sentence "she didn''t cross the line".
There was sarcasm showed on his face as well as irrepressible anger.
Looking out of the window, he thought of the night beforeing to New Xoford. He also stood in
front of the window of the hotel-style apartment on the 28th floor of Royal Club and looked out of the
window. He couldn''t exin why but he just hated seeing that woman belittle herself and lose her
self-dignity. He didn''t want to see Caroline in that condition!
He understood better why Caroline couldn''t affect his mood three years ago, but she could make
him so angry after she was released from prison three yearster. As long as he saw Caroline like
that, he couldn''t help but feel angry. Since he didn''t want to see that anymore, he came to New
Xoford.
He thought that his mood swings in those days were just because he wasn''t used to facing that poor
woman, who waspletely different from his impression.
Maybe aftering to New Xoford, he didn''t have to see such a humble and pitiful Caroline for a
while, and those inexplicable mood swings would disappear automatically.
But, how could she kiss someone else?
Was she really being so cheap and so shameless that she could do anything without any limit?
"Cyrus, get ready for return." Bentley gave the order with a frosty expression.
