"Come on, honey, I'm ready." Emily said excitedly. After Jake had repeatedly canceled their date, they were finally going out tonight. It had been a long time since they had a romantic dinner out, as Jake was too busy taking care of Caroline and Jared's problems. Emily hugged Jake's arm tightly, looking at him with excitement because she couldn't wait to leave. "Sorry, Emily..." Jake looked hard to tell if their romantic date tonight was canceled again. Seeing the expression on Jake's face, as well as the sorry words he said, Emily knew that again she had to swallow disappointment. She didn't know what Jake's priorities were now. Because the man always breaks his promises. Emily immediately released her hug on Jake's arm; she put on a sullen face and hurried back to the room. There was a very rough slamming of the bedroom door. A sign that Emily was really angry. Jake sighed harshly; he understood and understood the attitude that Emily showed. Because he realized that lately h
"Oh, so her background is like this? It turns out that her life is bleaker than I imagined." Lenzy commented after she got the report from the man she paid. She received every detail, from the small to the big. So, she had now bagged Caroline's weaknesses. She knew all the ins and outs of the woman. If she wanted revenge, she already knew how. "Lure her out by telling her that you know where her sister is. Then, bring her to me." Lenzy gave the order. She couldn't wait to cuss and beat Caroline. This was because Caroline had destroyed her pride in front of Jared. If Caroline hadn't said that Jared liked her, she wouldn't have been so confident and ended up feeling this embarrassed. "Yes, ma'am." "Don't let anyone know." Lenzy emphasized that she did not want to deal with Jared. Jared would not stay silent if he knew that Caroline was in danger. *** The ringing of her cell phone made Caroline look up from the television screen she was watching. Since living with Jared, she ha
Caroline woke up from her stupor after she was doused with a glass of water. Her eyes were squinting from the glare of the light. She was still semi-conscious and trying to digest what was happening. "You're finally awake. I've been waiting for you here for three hours." Lenzy commented harshly. Her tone sounded very unfriendly. Caroline turned to the source of the voice. Her brow furrowed when it was Lenzy, not Aalya. "Why are you here?" Caroline asked in confusion. Lenzy smiled sarcastically. She folded her arms across her chest, then walked around Caroline. Her gaze was so condescending because she already knew what kind of family Caroline came from. All this time she thought Caroline came from the rich and prominent Corner family. In fact, Caroline was far beneath her. "You dare to deceive me; that means you're looking for trouble with me." Lenzy struck Caroline hard on the forehead. Caroline wanted to retaliate, but she realized that her body was tied to the chair she
Jared came home a little late. He only arrived home when it was nine o'clock in the evening. He had been unsettled throughout the day's work, and even more so from the afternoon until the evening. He felt very restless, his mind always on Caroline. He felt anxious all the time. Plus, Caroline wasn't taking his calls after he dialed repeatedly. The first thing Jared did when he got home was look for the woman he loved so much. As tired as he was when he got home, all that tiredness would soon disappear when he saw Caroline. The energy that had been depleted was replenished when he got a smile from Caroline. "Where's Caroline?" Jared asked after he took off his suit and tie that had been straining his neck all day. "Sir, Mrs. Caroline isn't home yet." One of the waiters informed. "Where did she go?" Jared was a little disappointed that Caroline didn't welcome him home from work this time. "She told you to look for her if she wasn't home by seven, sir." "It's already nine o'c
"Good, I found you." Jared said in a vengeful tone. He copied the number on Caroline's phone, then dialed it using his own. Unfortunately, the number was not active. Just like the last time Caroline tried to call the number. "Damn! Looks like this was planned!" Jared looked so annoyed. He growled, sighing harshly repeatedly to reduce his irritation. "You find out who this number belongs to." Jared ordered Thalius. "Yes, sir." Thalius immediately rushed to carry out the orders he was given. Along the way, Jared couldn't calm down at all. His mind was wandering all over the place. Who wouldn't be worried when they knew that a loved one was in danger? It was certain that Caroline wasn't doing well right now. Thinking about it, Jared was getting more and more upset. He clenched his fists violently and vowed to make a reckoning with whoever had been involved. After waiting for some time, Thalius got some information. "It looks like this is a new number that was deliberately use
"Sir, the address has been found!" Thalius announced excitedly. "We're going there now!" Jared said with emphasis. He didn't want to feel regret like Donny said. Donny had previously warned him to protect Caroline and Bonnie, but he refused to do so on the grounds that Caroline didn't need him. In the end, he regretted that Bonnie finally died at the hands of Max's men. He was grateful that Caroline was lucky to survive that night. She didn't know how much she would regret if Caroline had been shot. Donny was right; he no longer wanted to feel the regret of his negligence in taking care of his loved ones. Jared was nervous all the way. He felt very anxious. The only thing he wanted now was for Caroline to be okay. "Find out who posted the video and the people involved. I don't want to see their faces. Once you find out their identities, take them out immediately." Jared said angrily. "Yes, sir. I will investigate everything." Thalius replied swiftly. The car drove at high
Jared looked at Caroline, who was lying weakly on the hospital bed. He looked at her intently. The face was bruised and swollen. He couldn't imagine what kind of abuse Caroline had received. There were many wires connected to Caroline's body. Her body temperature had improved somewhat due to the help from the doctor, coupled with the warmth of the blanket covering her entire body. Caroline had experienced hypothermia because she was outside in such cold temperatures while she was not wearing any clothes. Luckily, Jared immediately took her to the hospital. Doctors also identified a large dose of drugs in Caroline's blood. Caroline was in a coma not only because of the violence but also because of an overdose. Knowing that fact, Jared was even more furious. No wonder Caroline didn't put up a fight when the bastards touched her, because Caroline had been unconscious from the start. "How long will it take for the owner of the sperm to be identified?" Jared asked the doctor who was
"Carol!" Jake called out with a happy expression after Caroline opened her eyes. He unconsciously tightened his grip on Caroline's hand. The doctor and nurse came to check. They seemed so busy with each other. While Jake just quietly watched. He cheered inwardly because Caroline finally woke up. He himself didn't know why he should be happy when Caroline woke up from her coma. However, he concluded that his joy was directed at his uncle. Jared, who was eating, immediately stopped his activities after Donny told him that Caroline was showing signs of consciousness. He quickly ran to the room where Caroline was being treated. He was so happy that he smiled broadly with great abandon. "Wait for me, honey!" Jared cheered happily. However, the smile that had been on his lips suddenly vanished when he arrived at the room and found Jake holding Caroline's hand. He began to think that Caroline woke up because of Caroline's great love for Jake. While he had done everything he could to ge
