Chapter 52

Kara closed her eyes tightly, trying to get rid of dirty images from her mind. What her body wanted was contrary to her heart and logic. She did not want to choose the wrong one.

Suddenly, the door opened wide. Kara spontaneously turned around with wide eyes. When she found Frank standing there with his hands clenched tightly, she let out a sigh of relief. For the first time, she was grateful to see her grumpy boss come.

“Mr. Harper ….”

Ben stopped pressing Kara. His eyeballs trembled violently at the presence of the uninvited guest. His fear was now far greater than the effects of the drug.

“Frank, it’s not like you-”

Thump!

A punch landed on his jaw. Ben lost his balance. If the table he fell on was made of glass, he would have been punctured by the shard

“How dare you touch Kara!”

Frank dragged Ben then threw him on the floor near the door. W shiny black shoe, Frank pressed Ben’s chest.

“Don’t blame me if you die. You ignored my warning!”

Ben raised his hands in surrender. His eyes were wide and his mout was gaping. It was like he was facing the angel of death.

“Please forgive me, Frank. I was framed too. This is your

grandfather’s doing. If you don’t believe me, check my phone. He’s the one who locked us up here and gave us drug. I have no other choice.”

Hearing the word “drugs”, Frank’s eyebrows turned into high arches He remembered how tormented he was when he tried to fight that cursed thing back then.

“You couldn’t help it either, could you? I know, four and a half years ago, you failed to resist it. What have you done to Kara back then was much worse than what I do now. So, please let me go! I promise I won’t touch your woman again.”

Frank gasped. His breath hitched. Ben’s words had uncovered all the suspicions he had buried.

‘Is that girl really Kara?”

With his eyes shaking violently, Frank turned to his secretary. Suddenly, he seemed to see the girl from four years ago in Kara. Anger suddenly rose in his heart.

Meanwhile, Kara turned pale. She didn’t expect that Ben knew her Ssecret that deeply and now, Frank knew it too.

‘No…. I can’t let him know.”

WWith trembling lips, Kara watched how Frank threw Ben out and lo tocked the door. Then, as Frank turned to her, Kara shook h

In instead of answering, Frank loosed the top button of his shirt. A arend shock had made him burning.
