Rejection (2 in 1)

The noisy trio instantly turned silent. At this moment, Laura and Scarlet's faces were still covered with stickers as they sat cross-legged on the bed with Wang Zhong. Instead of worrying about their appearances, they were even more surprised to see the person standing outside the room. It was actually Carolyn?

There was no change to Carolyn's expression upon seeing the state the trio was in. Maintaining her usual faint smile, she said, "Looks like you've recovered pretty well. Sorry to bother you all, but could I have a word with Wang Zhong in private?"

Her indifferent voice was filled with an imposing tone that could not be refused. 

Without talking about Scarlet, even Laura was unable to refuse Carolyn's request. During the CHF, she hadn't been directly targeted by Carolyn; but now, being in the same room, the aura radiating from Carolyn was indeed something that no one in her generation could contend against.
