Fallen for My Ex's Billionaire Uncle 19. Difficult Days
Caroline grumbled as she moved her belongings to her new workspace. Her position was now downgraded from assistant to CEO to secretary to manager. She didn't mind the demotion, but she was upset that she had to work for Jake. How could she? How could she possibly survive one day working in the same room with someone she hated so much? Especially if she had to spend her entire working life doing it.Caroline cleared her desk, then sat down in a chair to await the arrival of her new boss. She sighed harshly. One minute of waiting for Jake felt like hours. The thing she hated the most was when her heart was beating so fast and her chest was pounding. She hated it when she realized that there was a glimmer of happiness when she was about to meet Jake."I hate this situation. Control your heart and mind, Caroline!" Caroline told herself.There were footsteps at the door of the room. Caroline rose to her feet, greeting Jake with a sour face."Good morning by noon," Caroline said in an unfri

"I'll take you home." Jake said as he approached Caroline's desk when it was time to go home.Caroline stared with narrowed eyes. Her brow furrowed as she stared at the man.

Jake insisted."Mind your own business.""I don't want you to go back to flirting with Uncle Jared, so I need to make sure you don't go home with him this afternoon.""He and I have nothing more to do, so why should I go home with him?" Caroline was adamant that she didn't want a ride home. She would take a taxi home so that her life could be a little more peaceful.The cell phone on the table chimed, an incoming message from Jared.Jared: I'll be waiting in the parking lot; I'll take you home.Caroline sighed after skimming the message. She didn't reply to it, and she didn't want to respond to Jared's words at all. She was determined

Especially since it was Sunday, she wanted to rest and relax at home before going back to work tomorrow morning as usual.Caroline selected all the items on the order list. Jared, Thalius, and Donny seemed to follow behind while pushing the shopping cart.Thalius looked confused because this was the first time they were asked to participate in shopping for home needs. Usually, it was the housemaids who did that."It looks like Mr. Jared is really in love." Donny whispered to Thalius. They had been watching Jared since earlier. Their boss never took his eyes off Caroline at all. Jared's gaze and focus were always on her. He didn't even blink."Uncle, I don't think the fruit here is fresh enough." Caroline turned to look at Jared after she had selected the fruit."Do you have any recommendations for a good place to shop?" Ja

"What are you talking about, Uncle? There's no way I still like him. You can't be kidding." Caroline laughed to cover up her true feelings. If she had her way, she would still love Jake. However, for the sake of pride, she would never want to admit that. Until death, she would never want to go back to Jake.Jared understood. He understood that Caroline actually still loved Jake. However, he appreciated the fake answer Caroline gave.They continued to walk towards the parking lot a little awkwardly. Just about to get into the car, their steps were stopped by Jake. Jake ran over, and behind her seemed to be Emily struggling to catch up."I'm coming, Uncle!" Jake pleaded desperately."This has nothing to do with you." Caroline forbade."I have to make sure that you won't brainwash Uncle Jared. The closer he gets to you, the more ruthless he becomes towards me. I don't want my place in my uncle's heart to be replaced by you. I love my uncle. We had a good relationship before you came alon

"Here's your credit card, Uncle." Caroline said as she handed over Jared's credit card after she had paid the bill. She joined them, sitting in the chair opposite Jake."You can go home," Jake said."I'll be home after lunch." Caroline refused."No, you have to stay with me for the whole day. I promise I'll pay you if you want to stay with me for a day." Jared reminded."But Uncle, I want us to spend the day alone without her." Jake tried to persuade his uncle. He really didn't want Caroline and Jared to get closer. So, he would do everything possible to thwart their plans."Why don't we spend some time together? Your relationship with Caroline could improve. You could be friends instead of enemies like you are now.""Never!" Jake and Caroline replied simultaneously. Both looked very unhappy with Jared's offer. It seemed that they would remain enemies forever.Although both answered at the same time, Jared smiled at their answers. "It seems like you guys still have a bond. Several tim

"I hope you didn't take offense to what Jake said to you earlier." The man said it carefully. He was afraid his words would hurt Caroline."Don't you think about it; I don't care." Caroline said it indifferently. Although she said that she didn't care, Jake's words had really pierced her heart."Good, I was just worrying too much." Jared smiled at her.Caroline no longer answered; she opened the door and wanted to leave quickly. However, Jared stopped her again."Here's your pay for today." Jared handed over two thousand dollars."Thank you." Caroline smiled and said it, then hurried downstairs before Jared could stop her again.***"Uncle, have you been waiting here since morning?"

"Caroline, I'm having a birthday party at my house tonight. Would you like to come?" Lenzy walked over when she found Caroline eating lunch alone in the office cafeteria."I can't promise." Caroline replied as she continued chewing. She did not even turn her head at all, as she felt Lenzy was not that important."I really wish you could come." Lenzy made a pitiable face."I can't decide right now. I have a lot of work." Caroline tried to find an excuse. She didn't want the hassle of attending Lenzy's birthday party. Moreover, if she had to bring a gift, it would be a source of expense. Meanwhile, she had to save money to pay off her father's accumulated debts."I beg you. I already told my parents that you're coming." Lenzy continued to plead."You shouldn't make a decision before asking.""I will pay you." Lenzy knew Caroline's weakness was money.Caroline stopped chewing. She turned her head, looking at Lenzy with a determined look. "Five thousand dollars.""Five thousand dollars? D
