Caroline Forbes Quotes Novels & Stories

“Everyone knows you’re worth nothing. If it wasn’t for your mom, you wouldn’t be here. You should be grateful and not try to show the whole fucking world what a nuisance you are.” Caroline is speechless and taken off guard. She clenches and unclenchs her jaw as she glares at us. Tiwa just said what I would have said to her, but maybe more brutal. “Why don’t you sit on that, you fucking cunt.” I say to Caroline, a triumphant grin on my face as we walk past her.

Wilkins with a deep sigh. “Tell me about it! They have plenty of unused things at home but still they want to buy new ones.” said Mr. Forbes agreeing with Mr. Wilkins annoyedly and then turned towards his son. “You are going to tolerate this soon. Start taking notes” Mark just twitched the corner of his thin lips infinitesimally in reply. Before her husband passes another comment to discourage her already cold, boring and unromantic son, Mrs. Forbes decided to leave. “We must leave. Looks like you will need some more time here” said Mrs. Forbes with a shy smile.

"I didn't do anything wrong. He has no reason to dislike me, right?" After listening, Sheila felt a pang of sourness and bitterness, so she comforted her, "Of course, you didn't do anything wrong. And pursuing the love in your heart is a very brave thing." "Really?" Caroline rubbed her sore eyes. "Sheila, you're the first person to say I'm brave. Everyone else ridicules and mocks me for being pathetic." "It is a bit pathetic," Sheila patted her head. "But it's not a shameful thing. Everyone has their own way of pursuing happiness."

Alisa observed Caroline before saying in contempt, "I thought G iwa a strong woman over 30 years old, yet she is so young. She won't be able to manage a clothing company well at her age. She won't last long in the industry with just good designs." Caroline's friendly smile disappeared when Alisa mocked her without cause. Kenny was also surprised. Alisa had previously promised to assist G with the fabric issue, so her current attitude was unexpected. Kenny was about to speak, but Caroline beat him to it. "Ms. Alisa, I disagree with you questioning my abilities because of my age. As far as I know, you were in your early 20s when you began your business. If you could do it, why can't I?"

"I saw the news. All this talk about Jeffrey and the investigation… nonsense! You’re a strong woman, Caroline. You always have been." Caroline pressed her fingers to her temple. "I’m trying, Grandma." "You don’t need to try. You are strong. Just like your mother was. Don’t let these people—his family, those officers, Maria—push you around." Caroline swallowed hard. "I won’t." "Good girl," Evelyn said. "Now, go handle your business. And give my love to the children." The call ended, but her grandmother’s words lingered. You are strong.

She was a bandaid to my miserable life, and I’m axing down the fervent desire to have her patch up my wounds. Then there was the deep piercing guilt. It should have been Charlotte that was underneath me, touching me and moaning my name. “Should I get you one?” Forbes asked, pouring his glass full of bourbon from the bottle on the table, emptying it. “One of what?” My brows raised, feeling puzzled. “The strippers.” He released a long breath through his nose and studied the glass of liquor in his raised right hand. “Maybe you could use a lap dance. You could pretend that she’s whoever you want her to be.”

You lied to me! She chuckled coldly through her pain. Caroline: You wanted to believe me... no one forced you... and now... she won't want... you anymore... what a shame... That her pathetic father… had prevented me from approaching… I had… a beautiful… scene in mind… I would have fallen… telling her that… I wouldn’t put… anything between you anymore… that she had no right… to push me… I even had a… capsule of fake blood… in my mouth… ready to be… bitten…

He didn’t complain; having a little was better than having nothing. “Your mind is miles away, Mr Henshaw.” Caroline Forbes called to him, and he snapped out of his thoughts and fixed his attention on the pretty brunette sitting across from him at the dinner table. She had her curious blue eyes on him, and a small smirk danced on the left corner of her lips. She was a businesswoman in her mid-thirties looking to invest in Henshaw Trust because, according to her, she saw a future in the company. She reached out to him after the march, and it was a step in the right direction for the company. The executive rejoiced at her offer to join forces with the team.

I answered her, stepping around her. I didn’t break my stride forcing her to hurry after me. “Ashford resents me. You better not be doing anything stupid.” I stopped suddenly and she bounced against me. I lifted my brow, smiling sweetly which only made her more uncomfortable. “Caroline, I know you’re daft, but I really didn’t think you were this foolish. Since you came here, you and your friend have tried to kill me once. The last thing you should be worried about is my meeting with Ashford.”

"Why? Why? Why?" I ask, tears running down my mud-stained face. "I am one of you too! I try my best! Even if you don’t like me, why do you have to be so mean?" Caroline stands in front of me. Only thirteen, but she’s already tall and beautiful, like a model. She’s also strong, the greatest pup in our group. She is everything I ever wanted to be, but I know I never will. "Because you are not one of us!" She replies, her voice so cold it freezes the blood in my veins. "So do us a favor and just die already!"
