Caroline retorted, "You should have a solution. Can't you just get a place for me without it being under my name?"

Reid snapped coldly, "Then how would we meet and discuss our plans? What if you got caught? Living here is safest! Besides, everyone here works for me. No one will expose your whereabouts!" Reid's words made complete sense to Caroline.

She had never been a weak and indecisive person to begin with, so she immediately accepted the proposition.

Caroline started tidying up her new bedroom.

Reid's villa was huge and her room was very spacious. She scanned the whole room and found that all the necessities had been prepared for her.

Any products or clothes a woman would need were laid out before her and they were all brand new, so it seemed as if they had been specially prepared for her.

The corners of her mouth twitched at the sight.

She knew that Reid wasn't a kind person.

Reid was a cunning man that only had eyes for his own ambitions. One look at him was enough to tell that he was not a good guy.

The only reason he doing all this for Caroline was likely because he was afraid that she would be discovered if she went out to shop.

After tidying up around the place a little more, Caroline went downstairs.

Reid was drinking a cup of tea on the sofa.

Once he saw Caroline coming over, he set the teacup in his hand down. "Not bad, right?"

It was a casual remark.

Caroline hummed an agreement before she asked, "What's our next move? I really want to mercilessly strike back against Selina right now!"

As the thought of Selina leaving her in such a difficult position entered her head, hatred began bubbling away in Caroline's heart.

Reid coldly side-eyed her and said, "It will not be

any time soon."

This made Caroline slightly fidgety. "Why isn't it going to be soon? When will it be? Haven't you been preparing to deal with Selina for quite some time already? Why haven't I seen you doing anything towards her yet?"

Reid snickered at her reaction and said, "You were hasty with your plan and how did that go?"

Caroline quickly kept her mouth shut.

Reid carried on, "We are no longer dealing with just Selina, but also with the one that has her back, Matthew, because he will definitely help her. Selina may be an easy target, but Matthew isn't."
