Meanwhile, in a luxury suite in a downtown hotel, Caroline Wendell hung up the phone and then stored her cellphone in her bag. Her face gave a faint smile.
'This is a very good development,' Caroline thought to herself. The slight curve on her beautiful face slowly grew into a broad smile, and her eyes flashed with satisfaction.
"Who called you?" someone asked her.
Soon, a man came out of the bedroom. Caroline turned to the man and shrugged. Danny Swann seemed he just woke up, and his face still looked sleepy. The man insisted on going with Caroline to Berlin even though she had tried to find an excuse so that Danny would not go.
Last night she also couldn't send Danny away, and they spent the night together. Danny woke up late, and his mood didn't look too good.
"Nobody. I just made an appointment to see my friend in Berlin." Finally, Caroline answered in a flat tone.
"Your friend? Which friend?" Danny asked in a probing tone.
Caroline looked at him sharply. "You can't possibly know every single friend I have, right? You don't know this one."
"What's up with that tone?" Danny frowned in surprise. "Of course, I'm asking you because we're childhood friends. I know all of your friends. If you suddenly want to meet other people here, then it's only natural that I will ask questions."
The man looked offended. Caroline then waved her hand to calm him down. She knew now was not the right time to fight with Danny. She changed her tone and spoke more gently.
"Honey, this is only a girls' stuff. You don't need to know the details. It's boring. I also have to meet with my father to discuss his presentation tomorrow at the conference." She approached Danny Swann and hugged his neck to coax the man. "Didn't you also want to meet with a lawyer to take care of your grandfather's will?"
Danny looked at Caroline with an annoyed expression, but finally, he just nodded.
"Yes," he answered in a flat voice.
"You know what my father thinks, right? He won't give us his blessings if you can't secure your inheritance. Don't blame me if Dad won't want to see you."
When he heard Caroline's words, Danny frowned in annoyance, but he knew that he had no choice. Finally, after taking a deep breath, he nodded. "I'll take care of that now."
Caroline looked at Danny Swann with narrowed eyes. She could see a dangerous glint in the man's eyes.
Caroline knew that over the past few weeks, Danny had tried so many ways to get all his grandfather's inheritance for himself. He had mobilized all his family lawyers, and didn't even hesitate to use dirty methods to slander and spread lies in the media that he was married to L.
The only way that Danny hadn't tried was to kill. But Caroline knew him well enough. She was not sure that Danny would resort to killing a woman to secure his inheritance.
"All right, Honey. You do what you need to do. I'll call you later," Caroline said before kissing Danny's lips and letting go. "I'll get ready first."
The girl went into the bathroom and Danny Swann was forced to take his leave because the host had subtly asked him to go.
Inwardly, Caroline was curious to know how luxurious the man's residence was. Caroline was not a poor girl. Her family was of noble blood, and they have many acquaintances from the upper classes. Still, Caroline knew that the Schneider family was on a completely different level from all the people she had met.
Because of that, she really wanted to know what kind of wealth and luxury the Schneider family had. At 6 pm, the phone in the penthouse's living room rang, and the lobby staff informed London that Caroline had arrived.
"Please bring her upstairs. Tell her I'm waiting for her here," London said.
"Yes, Sir. I will bring your guest soon," said the lobby staff.
Ten minutes later, the door to the penthouse was knocked. London walked casually and opened the door for his guest.
"Welcome, Caroline. I'm waiting for you," the young man said in a friendly voice while reaching his right arm, giving a sign for Caroline to enter.
The girl smiled sweetly and stepped into the penthouse while looking around. She was really impressed by how spacious the place was and how luxurious it looked. She had never seen such a luxurious place of residence.
In her heart, Caroline hoped that one day she would be able to enjoy this luxury in her life too. Ahh ... it would be really nice if London Schneider really fell in love with her.
She would not even think twice. For her, Danny Swann was just a childhood friend who had become a lover in her youth. But the Swann family's wealth cannot be compared to the Schneider family's.
"Do you want to tour this place?" London offered politely. Caroline's eyes lit up at the offer.
"Can I? Of course, I want to ..." the girl said excitedly.
"Wait a minute ..." London signaled Caroline to wait for him in the living room. He pressed a button and a moment later a servant robot entered with a tray containing two glasses and a very expensive bottle of wine. London took the wine bottle and poured for each of them in two glasses. "We can walk around this place while drinking."
"Ahh ... this is very exciting," Caroline commented. She received a glass of wine from London and sipped it with a radiant face.
Inwardly, she suspected that the man wanted to do more than just a tour around the penthouse by giving her alcoholic drink.
Ah ... if he wanted to have s.e.x with her, Caroline planned to play hard to get a little bit. She shouldn't be too approachable so that this man would become curious and more eager to pursue her.
These thoughts made Caroline feel very happy, and a smile curved upon her face. They then walked around the penthouse with wine in hand. London explained the rare artworks he had in the penthouse, who designed the place, and so many other impressive information about his private residence. Caroline had to hold her breath many times in admiration.
In her heart, Caroline could only guess how much was the value of the penthouse and all its contents.
Her imagination became so lively. She really wanted to be this man's wife. She would be very proud to be part of the wealthy Schneider family.
They then stopped in front of a luxurious infinity pool and enjoyed the wine in their glasses until they were finished. The sunset seen from the penthouse balcony at the top of the building looked very beautiful, and for a moment, both of them stood enthralled, staring at the sky.
