Chapter 5 She Won't Allow It!

After leaving the small apartment, she also escaped from the oppressive atmosphere. Her heart seemed to be about to jump out of her throat.

Carolyn couldn't help but think of Derrick's unintentional behavior this morning. She quickly shook her head and kept telling herself that he was sleepwalking!

When Carolyn came back home and opened the door, she was welcomed by a check that Mae threw on her face.

"Bastard, you finally come back? Did you have a good time with that damned man last night? Can you explain to me why this check is invalid?" ...

Standing by the door calmly, Carolyn took the check and looked at it. Then she said indifferently, "Of course it doesn't work. Auntie, don't you think that someone will really give you two hundred thousand dollars as long as you say you want it?"

In the living room, with melon seeds in her mouth, Dora glanced at the two of them and said in a strange tone, "Mom, I told you earlier that you couldn't believe her! She had known that the check was invalid, she must have conspired with that man to deceive you. She just want to piss you off! "

Dora's words made Mae tremble with anger. She grabbed the check and tore it into pieces. "Are you playing tricks on me, Carolyn? I have raised you up for so many years. Is this how you repay my kindness? I just want you to give your sister a dowry money, but you are not willing to. How can there be such an ungrateful woman like you who doesn't know how to repay others' kindness?"

"As I said, it's not about whether I'm willing to pay or not, but that I don't have so much money at all." Carolyn emphasized again.

At this time, Dora came over and patted Mae on the back. "Mom, for your own good, don't be angry. I'll talk to her."

The mother and daughter sat down on the sofa with Carolyn. Dora cleared her throat and said seriously, "Sister, in fact, we don't want to make things difficult for you, but you know that our family's financial condition is not good. I finally get married, but I can't marry someone without a decent dowry. Otherwise, what will others think of our Xia Family?"

"Or what else can I do? You want me to sell my kidney? " Carolyn laughed ironically.

"It's not that serious." Dora smiled and slightly hint, "Don't forget that your name was on the property ownership certificate when dad left," she said.

Hearing this, Carolyn finally understood what they were planning.

It turned out that they was coveting her property ownership certificate!

"This house was left by my father. I won't agree to sell it!" Carolyn was exceptionally decisive in this respect.

She didn't have many things left by her father. Except for the photos at home, she couldn't even remember much about her father. She always felt guilty and blamed herself for killing him. How could she give the things left by him to these two people in front of her?

It was not a simple house property certificate, but a home. It was a place where she and her father had lived for more than twenty years, which was inviolable... If Dora really took it, she might sell it to an outsider!

Carolyn wouldn't allow it!

Mae pounded on the table and said, "Carolyn, Dora discusses with you with kind manner, why are you so cold-blooded and ruthless? ... Don't forget that Dora and I are also a part of this family. This house is your father's heritage, and we have the right to decide whether to sell it! "

"Really?" Carolyn sneered, "Then we'll make the decision after the owner's name on the property ownership certificate becomes yours!"

After saying that, Carolyn didn't want to argue with them anymore and slammed the door and walked out!

It was a hot day, but walking on the road couldn't dispel the coldness in Carolyn's heart.

She had thought that Dora and Mae would stop when they couldn't get the property ownership certificate, but Carolyn forgot that she had a boss, Eric, in her company.

Perhaps under the order of Dora, Eric made things difficult for her in the company. He even forced her to stay and work overtime without pay for the late delivery of the materials for the press conference last time.

It was ten o'clock in the evening.

The huge office was empty, leaving only Carolyn sitting in front of the computer. The sound of typing echoed in the air.

The lights on the floor had been turned off, only a small table lamp beside her and the blue and white light of the computer screen reflected on her face, making her look a little sad and tired.

After a long time, her ten fingers, which were as fast as flying, stopped. Carolyn turned her head and looked at the pile of documents beside her. She sighed faintly, rubbed her shoulders, took a bite of the cold takeout, and was ready to continue working.

At this moment, there was a sound of slow footsteps from the door, which was particularly harsh in the quiet late night.

Subconsciously, Carolyn glanced at the man and happened to meet his strange eyes. She frowned slightly and said, "Director, why don't you go home yet? It's getting late."

Eric's tall and thin figure gradually approached, and the dark and uncertain light made his expression more mysterious. He loosened his tie and said, "I'm not off duty yet. You know clearly why I'm still here."

"What do you mean by that..." Before she finished her words, the man in front of her suddenly pulled her from the chair.

Tied to the table, Carolyn couldn't move. Panic appeared in her cold eyes, but more anger!

"Eric! Let go of me! " Carolyn struggled and shouted.

Hearing this, the man didn't compromise.

"Carolyn! Don't pretend to be pure and innocent in front of me! What qualifications do you have for being arrogant?" ... His gentle camouflage seemed to be torn apart by the dark night, with his ferocious face was exposed. "You deserve what you suffer now! Cooperate with me. I promise that no one will make things difficult for you in the future. Otherwise... "
