Chapter 181
Sarah's reaction was quite normal. Those fans didn't confront her directly but instead softened. "We just want to see Sway, but we're worried this woman might play tricks."
"Don't hurt her, or Sawyer won't forgive you. Just wait there, and I'll let you know if there's any news." Sarah hung up the phone directly.
The young men and women looked at each other, unsure of what to do.
Caroline secretly felt relieved. Fortunately, she had a good rapport with Sarah. She must be thinking of a way, and all Caroline needed to do was wait patiently.
After another ten minutes or so, the doorbell rang again.
Caroline was about to open the door, but a young man blocked her.
Another young man went to open the door, and outside stood several burly men.
Leading them was John, the head of security for the Kennedy family.
"Who are you?" the young man asked John.
John pushed him aside and strode in.
A young man rushed up to stop him but was easily thrown aside by John.
Another person came up to cause trouble, but John grabbed him by the neck and lifted him, leaving him barely able to stand on tiptoe.
"Don't mess around. If you do, you'll really get hurt," John said coldly.
The young people realized they were not dealing with someone to be trifled with and felt a bit intimidated.
John walked up to Caroline. "Ms. Murphy, I'm sorry I'm late. I hope you weren't too frightened."
Caroline and John had been through a lot together, so their relationship was naturally unusual.
Seeing John, she felt a sense of relief.
"Thank you," Caroline nodded.
"Let's go," John said.
"Okay."
Caroline stood up and walked ahead, with John closely following and protecting her.
The young people looked unwilling but didn't dare to move.
"Stop her! Don't let her get away." a girl couldn't help but say.
A young man mustered up the courage to rush up and grab John.
John responded with a shoulder throw, slamming him to the ground, causing him to cry out in pain.
"I told you not to mess around, didn't I? You can be fans, but I warn you not to bully Ms. Murphy. If you cause any more trouble, I won't be polite."
John waved his hand, and no one dared to move.
Under John's protection, Caroline successfully left the hotel.
A Rolls-Royce was parked at the hotel entrance, Nathan's special car for picking up important guests.
This black Rolls-Royce was a symbol of the Kennedy family's status in Aurora City.
The car was not only rare but also the only custom-made one in the world.
Besides the emblem, the car's rear had a prominent letter 'N,' Nathan's personal mark.
Originally, Nathan was on his way to the airport to pick up a national business leader, but he received a distress message from Sarah and had to have the driver turn around to rescue her.
The car door opened, and Caroline glanced at Nathan inside, hesitating whether to get in.
Seeing her hesitation, Nathan became more annoyed. He thought, 'Isn't this car good enough? It's so expensive, and it's being used to pick you up, and you're still picky.'
"Are you getting in or not?" Nathan said coldly.
"Yes." Caroline got into the car, which had a spacious interior and very comfortable seats.
There was even a small table between the seats for a laptop.
Nathan had planned to discuss an investment project with the leader in the car.
But Caroline just couldn't stay out of trouble. Something happened yesterday, and now this today!
Although Nathan was angry, he couldn't just ignore her. He didn't trust anyone else to handle it.
Nathan had to comfort himself, thinking he was concerned about her for the sake of the kids.
Caroline sneaked a glance at Nathan and found his face very cold.
He always had a stern face. Didn't he get tired of it?
If she owed him money, wouldn't his face be even more displeased?
"Thank you," Caroline said politely.
After all, Nathan had helped her out of a big mess today. Otherwise, who knew what those people might have done to her.
"Are you staying at a hotel?" Nathan asked briefly.
"Yes, I have nowhere else to go. Sarah's place is also blocked, so I can only stay at a hotel."
"Serves you right."
Caroline sighed and didn't retort.
Thinking about it, she really did deserve it. If it weren't for eating barbecue, none of this would have happened.
One wrong step led to another, and trouble kept coming.
"You brought this on yourself." Nathan asked.
Caroline helplessly spread her hands. "Fine. It's all my own fault."
Nathan snorted coldly.
"Where are you taking me?" Caroline asked.
Nathan checked the time. It was running out, and the airport was still far away.
Being late to pick up the leader was very impolite.
Looking at Caroline annoyed him even more, so he simply ignored her.
"Where exactly are you taking me? You don't agree to let me stay at the Kennedy Manor, so take me to another hotel. But I still don't want to stay at a hotel, afraid of being recognized!" Caroline complained.
"Then where do you want to go?" Although Nathan was annoyed, he had to think carefully about where to put her.
He definitely couldn't take her to meet the business leader. She wasn't qualified to attend such a reception unless she was his wife.
Nathan suddenly felt a pang of guilt.
She was Nick's woman. How could he think like that?
"I don't know where else to go. It seems I can only hide in a remote place. Otherwise, I'll be attacked at any time. Oh my God, it's so hard to endure."
Nathan snorted again. Then he said to the driver, "To the hotel."
Since they were already late, Nathan decided to go directly to the leader's hotel and settle her there.
"I don't want to go to the hotel! I'll be recognized!" Caroline said urgently.
Nathan remained silent.
"I want to get out of the car. I don't want to go to the hotel. If I'm recognized, I'm done for! Sawyer's fans will attack me!" Caroline was almost in tears.
Nathan still kept silent.
She was too ignorant, and he didn't bother to explain.
A hotel where the leader stayed wouldn't have idle people. How could she be easily recognized? Even if she was, under the Kennedy family's management, no one would dare to harm her.
But seeing her frantic state, he felt quite satisfied.
He simply didn't explain and let her fuss.
