Chapter 3 Her legs getting weak

Caroline was frightened and quickly spoke up, "No, that's not what I meant... I was just... because..." She hesitated on whether to tell Nicholas that she had been drugged before coming here. If she were to confess, would he direct his anger towards the Collins family? But if she didn't say anything, would he hold a grudge against her instead? What should she do?

Just as she was thinking about it, Nicholas suddenly stopped his movements and said knowingly, "Did the Collins family fear that you might escape, so they tampered with you in advance?"

In fact, he understood everything from the moment he laid eyes on her. Originally, he thought that since the Collins family was unwilling to send Stella over, they would just find any woman to send to him. But he had no intention of accepting Stella or any unclean woman, and such a woman would never share his bed.

However, when he walked out of the bathroom, his gaze was immediately drawn to the girl sitting on the bed, or rather, the teeth marks on her right collarbone that he saw first.

The same location, the same bite mark, there couldn't be a second one in the world—it was her!

The girl he had been searching for all along.

He quickly turned on the light, wanting to get a clear look at her face.

She was wearing a thin wedding dress that tightly wrapped around her curvy figure, making her look particularly seductive. The two completely different styles of purity and sexiness were skillfully merged on her, even causing a slight heat in his lower abdomen.

He couldn't help but step forward and carefully examine her.

Unexpectedly, the Collins family stumbled upon such a big surprise for him.

"Um..." Caroline blushed and couldn't help but lower her gaze.

The man in front of her was different from what she had imagined. Surprisingly, he was very handsome, even more handsome than the stars and idols on television. If she really had a relationship with him...

Thinking of this, Caroline shook her head abruptly.

What was she thinking? Having a relationship with him? When did she become so shameless?

"I'm sorry... I really can't stand up. If you think I need to take a bath... can you help me over there?" Caroline knew that her request was particularly absurd, but she didn't seem to have any other options.

"Let me help you?" Nicholas wasn't angry but instead chuckled lightly. His fingers lightly touched her calf and gradually moved upwards, finally stopping above the tooth mark. "Then tell me, who left this mark? Was it the wild man who bit you when you were stealing a moment of pleasure?"

"You... are talking nonsense!"

He actually questioned his own innocence! Caroline's face turned red with embarrassment, "I've never made those kinds of videos, don't say that!"

"Is that so?" Nicholas smiled satisfied, looking quite content, "But the bite marks in this position couldn't have been made by yourself, could they?" His gaze ran up and down Caroline's body, "Your body is so soft, it looks like it can be arranged in all kinds of positions."

"That was from when I was a child, a little boy bit me," Caroline explained anxiously.

This man was so good-looking, how could he say something so shameless?

"Childhood sweethearts, inseparable?" Nicholas released his hold on her, his lips curved into a smile, "Please explain more clearly."

"It's not like that," Caroline shook her head, took a long breath, and continued, "It's like this, I grew up in an orphanage, and that year, our living expenses were not enough, so the matron organized us to sell flowers on the street."

"At that time, I should have been eight years old, pushing the cart from behind, when suddenly a pretty little boy rushed over from the roadside, with bad guys chasing him. I hid him in the cart."

"Afterwards, those bad guys searched around, found nothing, and had to leave. When the little boy came out, he didn't say anything, and actually bit me on my collarbone. I was scared and didn't dare to say anything at the time."

Caroline lowered her gaze, now thinking back to this incident seemed unbelievable. In that peaceful era, someone was actually openly chasing and killing a child.

And that little boy, he was so delicately beautiful, with a pair of deep eyes that did not match his actual age, just like a fairytale, leaving a vivid impression in her world.

Afterwards, they never met again.

Nicholas had been silent all along, and Caroline began to feel nervous again. She was surprised to find that her body seemed to be able to move now.

"I'm done, I'm going to take a shower first," she said in a low voice, intending to roll over and get off the bed.

Her plan was, if Nicholas tried to force her tonight, she would lock herself in the bathroom and delay for a while.

But as soon as she hit the ground, her body went limp and she fell straight into Nicholas's arms.

Despairingly, she closed her eyes, waiting for the pain to come.

But suddenly, the smell of tobacco mixed with perfume filled her nose, and she found herself falling into Nicholas's embrace.

"Sweetheart... why are your legs getting weak again?" He embraced her shoulder and asked, "What should we do? Your legs will become even more unstable later."

Saying this, he princess-carried her and strode towards the bathroom.

Nicholas quickly filled the bathtub with water and personally helped Caroline take off her wedding dress. His movements were skillful, as if he had done it many times before.

The wedding dress was tied with a silk ribbon at the waist. With a gentle tug, it could be easily pulled down. Obviously, this was intentional on the part of the Collins family.

Nicholas's eyes dimmed slightly. The Collins family's actions were indeed deliberate, but using such vicious means to deal with his beloved girl was really too much.

Thinking carefully, what if it were another man? What would Caroline do?

Instantly, anger and hatred filled his heart. Nicholas made up his mind to make the entire Collins family pay the price.

"I can do it myself, you can leave now." Caroline blushed and called out. After all, they had just met for the first time, and it was really absurd to ask him to help her undress and take a bath.

"Are you shy?" Nicholas smiled teasingly, "But baby, are you sure you have the strength to take a shower by yourself?"

"I can do it," Caroline nodded firmly, reaching out to pull the zipper on her dress.

Although she had regained some strength after the effects of the medicine had worn off, her limbs still felt weak. After several failed attempts, she felt embarrassed.

"Let me help you." Nicholas squinted his eyes and added, "Don't worry, I'm just helping you take a bath. We'll talk about other things later."
