"What are you guys? You were paid to look after Caroline while she was hospitalized. Instead of guarding her, you're sleeping outside!" Jake scolded Donny and the other two bodyguards. He was furious that Caroline had almost lost her life again. He was also worried that if Jared found out and made a calculation on his mother, he didn't want that to happen.

Fortunately, the doctor worked swiftly and responsively, so Caroline regained consciousness after fifteen minutes of unconsciousness.

"Sorry, young master. We won't do it again." The men replied guiltily. They were also afraid that they would be fired after this incident for being completely useless.

"If you can't work, just say so. I will ask my uncle to find a more competent bodyguard. Because of you, Caroline almost lost her life. What if I don't show up on time? Uncle Jared might kill you for not being able to do your job." Jake still couldn't control his emotions.

"That's it, Jake. I asked them to sleep. They must have

    Jared got out of the car after he arrived at his destination. His steps were sure to lead him to the base camp that only he and his men knew about. When he arrived, Lenzy was tied tightly to a chair in the center of the room. There were many guards on duty there. Their bodies were full of muscles, and their faces were sinister. "I finally found you." Jared said vengefully. Until death, he would never forgive. If there was anyone who would die at his hands, it would be Lenzy. It didn't matter who she was or what family she came from. Lenzy had ruined Caroline's life, so she had to pay for everything. "M-Mr. Madison." Lenzy said in a hoarse and trembling voice. She shivered with fear. Her heart was beating so fast. All the swagger she had shown Caroline was now gone. Not a shred of courage remained. Jared stepped closer; he gripped Lenzy's neck so tightly that her face was red with pain and she was struggling to breathe. Her breath hitching, she was forced to look up at Jared, who

    "Slow down." Jared helped Caroline walk from the front yard to the living room. He gently sat Caroline on the sofa. After a week of exclusive treatment, Caroline could finally go home in a much better condition. There were no wounds left on her body at all; she had completely recovered. Caroline felt grateful because there was Jared now who stood by her side when she had lost everything. She didn't know what would have happened to her had Jared not been there. Perhaps she would have joined her parents in heaven by now. "Sir, I'd like to talk." Thalius approached seriously. "Just talk." "It's an important matter." Thalius told him as he glanced at Caroline as a code for her to leave. This was because he wanted to discuss this one-on-one. "Take Caroline to her room." Jared gave orders to the servants. Caroline smiled, then got up and was helped by the servants to her room on the second floor. "What's wrong?" Jared asked Thalius after Caroline had left. Thalius handed J

    Today Jared could relax a little because he didn't have to go to the office. Usually on weekends like now, he had a job out of town to look at cities that would be used as new offices to expand the business. However, since Caroline didn't want him to stay long, he didn't want to go anywhere. If Caroline was able to travel far, he could bring her along to accompany him. He would have more peace of mind if he could keep an eye on Caroline. This morning, Jared and Caroline spent a romantic breakfast together. Jared couldn't hide his excitement at all. He never knew that having a girlfriend would be this much fun. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have remained single until his current age. "Do you like it?" Jared asked with a sweet smile on his lips after he gave Caroline a bite. Caroline nodded in response. Jared smiled widely. He wiped Caroline's lips that were smeared with cream from the dessert she ate. Then he reached for a tissue because he wanted to wipe his dirty thu

    "Thalius told me. I don't like you covering up the slightest problem from me. What do you think I am? Why don't you want to tell me if something hurts you?" Jared looked at Caroline seriously. There was great disappointment in his deep eyes. He wanted to be the first person Caroline looked to in all circumstances. Caroline was silent. She didn't expect Jared to know about the matter so soon. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to keep it from you. I just didn't want any trouble between you and your sister." Caroline answered as she was. "That's behind you; the important thing is that you always tell me whatever happens to you. I don't like it when you act like that anymore. I've told you many times, depend on me." Jared emphasized. He really wanted Caroline to depend on him completely. Caroline nodded gently. "I promise." Jake looked puzzled. He didn't know what other punishment he would get for this. He was very afraid that his name would actually be dropped from the family heirs. He

    After traveling for an hour, they finally arrived at their destination. When viewed from the outside, the house looked very well maintained, as if it were inhabited. Moreover, the area is in an elite housing complex. The building looked quite luxurious and spacious. Caroline got out of the car hesitantly. Followed by Donny who followed behind. "Are you sure this is the place?" Caroline asked to make sure. Because she felt that the building was someone else's house. "Sure. Mr. Jared often brings me here." Donny tried to convince. Donny stepped inside first, leading the way to make Caroline even more sure that they didn't have the wrong address. Inside the house, there was nothing unusual. Everything looked normal. There was the usual household furniture. Beautiful sofas, luxurious televisions, interesting paintings—there was nothing suspicious in the house. Moreover, they entered using a special code at the entrance. "Sir." One of the men approached Donny respectfully. "We ha

    "You're home?" Jared was greeted with a smile when Caroline returned from Aalya's place. Caroline gave him a quick glance, then walked right past Jared without responding at all. Her face looked very annoyed. "Carol!" Jared called out as he trotted after Caroline. Caroline still didn't want to respond. She ran to her room and closed the door with a little slam. Jared was very surprised by her action. "What happened?" Jared wondered to himself. He was confused by Caroline's attitude. Moreover, he had no previous experience. He didn't know any tricks in dealing with women. All he knew was to work and keep working. Jared was about to knock on the door, but Thalius' call stopped him. "Sir, we have to leave now." Jared sighed at that sentence. His time to relax was over. He had to go out of town on a business trip."Okay." Jared replied with resignation. "Don't you want to say goodbye first?" Thalius offered as he stared at the door to Caroline's room. Jared shook his he

    "Jake, what are you doing here?" Caroline gave Jake a confused look. "If you're looking for Uncle, he's out of town right now.""I know that.""Then, why are you here?""I came here on purpose because I know you must be lonely. I just wanted to comfort you." Jake walked over and sat on the sofa opposite Caroline.Caroline sighed deeply. She felt bad every time she saw her ex-boyfriend. Because she always remembered the pain she received from being dumped by the man she loved. She was tired of seeing Jake's theatrics, who always pretended to be good just to attract Jared's sympathy. Caroline believed and was very sure that Jake was pretending to be good just to get the company he was after."Carol." Jake called softly."I'm busy; you can see for yourself. So, don't bother me." Caroline said in an unfriendly tone. She refocused on the knitted wool in her hands. She had been bored since Jared left, so she was looking for something to do to pass the time."Uncle Jared isn't here, s
