It was a happy night. Flickering stars adorned the night sky. Invited guests filled the poolside engagement party venue of a five-star hotel. After the private proposal Jake gave three months ago, finally tonight Jake would announce the engagement party publicly. There were many guests from the upper class, especially colleagues and business partners of the Awan Company. Caroline's face looked radiant. Her eyes emitted a huge twinkle of happiness. Caroline had loved Jake all her life. She gave everything she had, thinking she would receive as much as she gave. The sleeveless red dress wrapped around her body made her look so sexy. Her chest and ass had perfect curves, and the fat gathered where it should be. Caroline stared at Jake with a sweet smile gracing her lips. She couldn't tear her gaze away from the 25-year-old man who had spoken in front of her. Jake looked very authoritative in his black suit. "On this blessed night, I would like to introduce a woman who has stolen m
Jared got out of the car in a very formal outfit. He was so busy at work that he was late for his niece's engagement ceremony. The 37-year-old man walked quickly, followed by two men as his accomplices. In the Corner family, Jared had the highest position. No one could contradict his words. Everyone feared him. The power he had made everyone bow down to him. Moreover, the business he owned was able to support the country's economy. "This way, sir." An officer gave Jared directions. He led the way to the engagement party being held at the hotel pool. The man with the stern forehead frowned when he arrived and saw that the guests were more focused on something in the pool than enjoying the event. He had heard rumors of Caroline's impending death. Jared was surprised when he heard Caroline's name mentioned. He wondered what was going on. Because he knew Caroline as Jake's girlfriend for the last few years. Jared looked at his nephew, who seemed to be laughing with another woman
"Uncle, I'm really grateful for what you've done for me tonight. I don't know what to repay you with. You even paid the hospital bill." Caroline said it sincerely. She looked at Jared with her beautiful eyes. Those blue eyeballs looked so beautiful; they matched her long blonde hair.Jared was silent for some time. Caroline will be hospitalized for the night. The doctor said she could be discharged tomorrow if her condition allowed. "It's not all free." Jared said then. "I understand. I'll pay for everything after I recover and get a job." Caroline smiled in response. She didn't know Jared very well, but she had heard Jake talk about him often. She understood that Jared's attitude was not that good. "You said you'd do whatever I wanted, didn't you?" Jared asked reassuringly. Caroline nodded. Jared had saved her life, so she had to return the favor."Work for me. You'll be my personal assistant, accompanying me wherever I want. Tomorrow, you come to my office in a thigh-length blac
"It's lunch time." Caroline was startled when she heard that sentence. She looked up, turning her head to look at Jared, who was standing next to her. She don't know when Jared had been there, but Caroline didn't realize it because she was too focused on her work. "What do you want to eat? Thalius will order for us, so we can eat right away when we get to the cafeteria." "Us?" Caroline gave a confused look. "Don't waste time; tell me what you want to eat right now." Jared repeated his question. "I've brought lunch from home to save money." Caroline replied as she took out her lunch box from inside the tote bag. Inside the box were pieces of fruit and mayonnaise. Jared took a quick glance, then made a face as if he didn't care. "You can eat all you want at the office cafeteria without spending any money. Breakfast and lunch are covered by the office." Jared tried to lie so Caroline wouldn't feel burdened by it. "Really? Wow, I didn't realize that this company care
Caroline became the talk of the office. Throughout the workday, everyone kept talking about her. Because she became the first woman to eat at the same table as Jared, Everyone could clearly see the attention that the man gave Caroline. They became jealous, also wondering about who the woman really was. Because she had become the center of attention on her first day of work,. All this time, Jared was known as a boss who was against female employees. Because there are many women who try to flirt with him. Instead of focusing on work, they focus on finding ways to get noticed by Jared. That is why there are only a few female employees there. Many of them have been fired, and few new female employees have been recruited. This was also the case with the woman Caroline had seen. The woman who came out of Jared's office had a very messy appearance. Caroline thought the woman was forced to serve Jared during working hours. In fact, it was the woman who tried to flirt but was immediately r
The car started moving again after Jared sat down quietly. He looked calm, but his heart was working very fast. He could even hear his own heartbeat. This was the first time he felt so intimidated sitting next to someone else. Caroline was really giving him a feeling that he had never felt before. Jared turned to look at Caroline. Over and over, he wanted to start a conversation between them, but he didn't know what to talk about. He had never been close to any woman, so he didn't know how to talk to women other than about work. "Caroline." Jared called softly, his voice sounding a little shaky as his heart beat faster. Caroline turned to stare. "A-" Caroline's cell phone suddenly rang. "One moment, sir." Caroline cut Jared off. She reached into her bag to pull out her cell phone and took the call. "Hello, Ma? It's on the way; I'll be home in a minute." Jared could only sigh while listening to Caroline, who was talking to her mother. He wanted to get to know Caroline be
"Mom, what happened?" Caroline looked panicked when she arrived at the apartment. The front room looked so messy. Flowers vase were broken, and things were scattered. What was even more shocking was when she found her father lying on the floor with a bruised body. The middle-aged man looked unconscious.Caroline rushed over, trying her best to wake her father up."Who did this?" Caroline looked at her mother with reddened eyes. She was angry, sad, and panicked—all feelings mixed together. No wonder her mother had called with a panicked and shaky voice. She had no idea that her parents were facing such a dire situation."Aalya came with her boyfriend." Bonnie said it weakly. She still couldn't believe that the eldest daughter she had missed so much would do such a thing to her. Instead of missing each other, Aalya attacked them."Aalya?" Caroline repeated the name with an unexpected tone and expression. Just as she had discussed her sister with the boss, now the woman appeared in an un

Delia couldn't understand Jared's decision to build a house for Caroline's puppy in front of the red house. She felt it was a waste of money and useless, so she went to Jared to protest."I took the middle ground. Aren't you allergic to dogs in the house? Caroline was sad that Yed had to be left at the daycare every day, so I made a special house for them so they wouldn't have to be separated again."Delia laughed at her brother's silly behavior and said Jared was blind to love. Obviously, Jared didn't care what his sister said because Delia had already openly said that she didn't like Caroline.Delia left her brother's study with an ember in her chest. She was angry that Caroline had made Jared more submissive to his wife than his sister. She began to devise a plan so that Jared would obey her orders like before and no longer follow Caroline's every whim.The process of making a house for Yed took three days. The dog looked comfortable in his spacious new home. Yed's house is also eq
"I'm coming home late, darling. Don't wait for me to get home and go to bed first." The message from Jared made Caroline sad. From the time Donny took his wedding leave to his honeymoon, Jared became busier at the office. Since only Thalius helped him with his work in the office, he often came home late at night. He feels lonely now that Sophia is also someone's wife. Caroline felt bad if she had to interrupt their honeymoon when she needed someone to talk to. Until 11:45 pm, when Jared came home, Caroline still couldn't sleep well. She woke up immediately when she heard the door open. "You're not asleep yet?" asked Jared. "I can't sleep. The house is so quiet, I don't have anyone to talk to," Caroline complained. "How about we make a little friend so you're not lonely anymore, huh?" Caroline smiled embarrassedly, then pinched her husband's belly. "Do you want to take a bath with me?" Jared asked. "No, it's too late." Jared carried his wife's body into the bathroom despite Ca
Sophia and Donny have been very busy preparing for their wedding, which will take place in a few days. Because of Caroline's help, Donny was finally able to get some time off. Jared even allowed Donny to take time off until everything was done. They were so excited that they printed the invitations with Sophia's own design. Although Caroline had already set up a wedding organizer for them, both of them only felt a sense of satisfaction when they took part in the party preparations. Donny and Sophia had also visited a priest and rented a building for the party. They had so much to prepare. Luckily, Caroline came and offered to help. Today, Donny and Sophia will have their wedding dress fitting. Caroline stepped in and accompanied them to a famous boutique. Caroline chose a wedding dress with a slightly open chest. Sophia looked very beautiful in it. "Isn't this too revealing?" asked Sophia. "No, Shopee. You actually look sexy. You have a nice body shape, so it's perfect to wear a d
"Caroline, can I ask you for a favor?" Donny approached Caroline, who was watering her orchid plants."Sure. What can I do?""I want to propose to Sophia. You know our relationship is very serious, right? So I want to ask her to marry me so that nothing can separate us anymore."Hearing Donny's plan, Caroline immediately put down the small bucket of water, then turned to the man who was already considered her biological brother."Are you serious? Then, what can I do for you guys?""What do you say we prepare a surprise? You can help me prepare a surprise for her, right? Where would be a good place?"Caroline looked thoughtful, then snapped her fingers as she came up with a brilliant idea."How about by the lake? We can put tables and chairs there and plan a romantic dinner. So, you can propose to Shopee there.""Good idea. Can I count on you?" asked Donny."Of course you can. I'll arrange it for you!" Caroline was really excited."I'm sorry to trouble you, but Mr. Jared has been very
The news about Corner Family finally died down over time. People seem to have gotten bored and are no longer spreading malicious comments about Delia. Caroline had also forgiven her sister-in-law, even though Delia never apologized directly in front of her.Delia remained confident as she entered the red house area, as if she had never done anything wrong to Caroline. Jared also doesn't really care about his sister; the important thing is that he has cleared his wife's good name.Delia is only afraid when in front of Jared; the rest of the time she still shows a dislike face in front of Caroline. Even so, Caroline continued to be kind to her sister-in-law despite never getting a good response from Delia.If you basically don't like it, no matter what you still don't like it. Although Caroline already considers Delia like her biological sister, Delia still hates Caroline.Since the press conference was held, Donny immediately returned to work as Jared's trusted subordinate with Thalius
Caroline held her husband's hand and asked Jared to calm down and not get angry. Caroline tried to talk to her sister-in-law."I'm not going to ask you to apologize, but I want you to admit it. That's all. I will forgive, even if you don't apologize.""Shut up! I don't want to hear you talk, so don't open your mouth!" said Delia, pointing at Caroline's face.Caroline felt that this meeting would be futile. Delia would still be in denial and feel that she was innocent if Jared did not immediately show the evidence he had collected.Jared and Delia are both stubborn. They have equally high egos, so no one wants to give in.Caroline showed the first piece of evidence. The fake photos and articles that had been circulating for fifteen minutes on social media made Delia's face red. It was a good thing Sophia still had some photos and copies of the articles that had been circulating. Otherwise, they would have lost track because Donny had asked the IT expert to delete all the news that had
"What are you going to do about Mom?" asked Jake as they were on their way home.Not wanting the people they had found to run away, Jared immediately sent his men to pick them all up for safekeeping. The three journalists and the two men who drugged Caroline into unconsciousness were finally detained for the time being. Jared was worried that Delia would help them escape in order to eliminate traces.Jake also helped copy all the CCTV footage so that if anything untoward happened, they could still use the duplicates as evidence."I'm sorry for putting you in this position, Jake. However, I will still hold him responsible for his actions.""Uncle, I apologize for what you did. I know it's wrong, but can I ask a favor? Mom is sick right now. Can you talk to her tomorrow?"Jared held his head, which felt heavy after learning the truth. Delia had really made a big problem. Not only did she destroy Donny and Caroline, but she also subconsciously destroyed Jared's good name. Because of the
"Do you know if Donny and Caroline's photos have been shared on social media before?"Jared showed a confused face because he really didn't know when and where their photos were spread. He trusted Donny so much; he really didn't expect him to stab him in the back like this."What picture?" asked Jared."When Uncle went out of town, photos of Donny hugging Caroline were all over social media platforms. I don't know if they were actually making out while Uncle was away, but I overheard Mom's conversation with someone. She took the photo and asked someone to write an article about them. By the next morning, the photo had really spread, and many articles were written about Caroline's betrayal.""You still have the photo?"Jake shook his head. "Within fifteen minutes, all traces of the photos and articles were deleted. It seems Donny intervened immediately and deleted the news before it spread further. I hate to say it, but I think this case was mom's doing too."Jared felt that Jake had a
