"Are you sure you don't want to invite your sister?" Jared asked reassuringly as they discussed the guests for their wedding."I never had a sister." Caroline said firmly. Until now, she still couldn't forgive Aalya. If not for Aalya, her parents would still be alive today. Her hatred towards Aalya could not go away.Jared smiled a little. He understood the reason behind Caroline's actions, so he didn't want to push. It wasn't easy to forgive what Aalya had done. No one from Caroline's family would be attending the wedding. Apart from Aalya, Caroline had no other family."We have to go to Donny's house. I want to give him a suit as a bridesmaid. I also want to give a dress to Shopia; I want her to be the bridesmaid.""Only Shopia will be your bridesmaid?""Yes, I don't have any other friends." Caroline agreed."I can get the ladies in the office to help if you want." Jared offered."No need; Shopia is enough." Caroline insisted."That's fine if you want it that way." Jared rel
"Uncle, you're getting married tomorrow, but you haven't told me where the event will be held. I don't even know what time you're getting married." Jake protested when he went to Jared's luxurious mansion. He felt ignored, as he hadn't been told where and when the event would start. He felt that Jared no longer cared about him."Oh, you're coming?" Jared responded coldly. He intended to tell him tomorrow morning when the event would start. He did that to avoid anything untoward. Who knows what's in someone's heart? He didn't want the event to fall apart because of Delia and Jake. Everything had been prepared very carefully. Just waiting for the D-day, then everything would run smoothly."Of course I'll come; it's an important day. Everyone is looking forward to your wedding." Jake said with emphasis."Oh, really? You haven't even apologized to me for what you did to Caroline last time. I don't want to take any chances if I tell you now. I'll text you tomorrow morning; the show star
“So she’s getting married today?” Aalya said in a sarcastic tone. Her mouth was smiling, but her tone sounded unpleasant.“You lost again to her.” Brian, her boyfriend, started to complain.“I always lose to her.”“Caroline only has you now. You’re the only family she has left, but she didn’t tell you when she was getting married. She really doesn’t care about you at all.”Aalya fell silent at Brian’s words. She actually felt sick when she heard that sentence. How come she was no longer considered by her sister? They used to be very close, even like best friends. However, now they were like eternal enemies. Let alone inviting her to the wedding, Caroline didn’t even tell her directly that she was getting married. Caroline sent a message to one of her bodyguards to tell Aalya about the news.“Luck has always been on her side. She always gets all the best, while I’m the opposite.” Aalya muttered as if she were talking to herself. “We are like two sides of the same coin. He’s the positiv
The wedding went very smoothly. Even Jake and Delia didn't dare make a scene for fear of Jared. Delia tried to be friendly, even going up to the two and congratulating them on their marriage. She acted as if she had changed and accepted Caroline as her sister-in-law."I'm sorry that I've made you uncomfortable with my slightly rude and disrespectful attitude." Delia said with a smile.Finding such a significant change, Caroline could only be silent with confusion. Why all of a sudden? She could only respond with a smile, being nice because this time Delia was being nice."Caroline, I'm glad you finally married Uncle. I hope you can live a happy life." Jake said with a smile. This time Jake looked very sincere when he said so. However, Caroline did not want to be fooled again. Jake had been nice to her, but it was because Jake had another purpose when he acted like that."Thank you." That was the only sentence Caroline could say. Because she didn't want her happy day to turn into a bad
"Sir, we found this in Madam's car." One of the men came up to Jared and handed him the tracking device they had found in the car Delia had given her.Jared had expected this. There was no way Delia could have given such an expensive car as a wedding gift so easily. He was sure his sister had a specific purpose when he gave the gift. Now it was answered when they found the tracking device attached to the car."Tape this to the car I usually drive. Not the MyBach I use to go to work, but the car I use when I want to travel with Caroline." Jared gave the order. He wanted to know how far his sister would go. He would never let anyone interfere with his wife's life."Yes, sir.""Is this all you found?""It was on one of the dolls that Madame received." One of the men showed Jared a recording device.Jared accepted the recorder with a furrowed brow. He looked confused, as he had no idea who had given him the doll. Almost all the gifts Caroline received were given right in front of her. He
Caroline woke up in the morning when it was six. She squirmed for a moment, then got up to sit up. She looked around; Jared was no longer there. She didn't know when Jared woke up and left the room. However, she did know that he always woke up in the morning to exercise, have breakfast, and then get ready for the office."Oh my God!" Caroline was surprised when Jared suddenly got up from under the bed. He too seemed to have just woken up.Jared stretched his muscles for a moment, then rubbed his face with both palms."Y-you just woke up?" Caroline asked stammeringly."Yeah, I'm a little sore from sleeping on the floor." Jared answered as he was."Why did you sleep on the floor? The bed is very spacious; we can sleep on the same bed." Caroline asked, not understanding."That's what I'm confused about. Why did you push me off the bed last night? I was sleeping peacefully when suddenly you pushed me down. I thought you didn't want to sleep with me, so I slept downstairs." Jared exp
“Thank you, Uncle.” Caroline smiled widely. She was really happy that she could fulfill her dream of a honeymoon in Hawaii. There was nothing like going to the place of your dreams with the one you love.“Whatever you want.” Jared said with great tenderness. He had been to Hawaii many times, so he was a little bored with the city. However, since it was Caroline’s dream, he had to give in. He didn’t want to spoil the mood by saying that he was bored and wanted to visit a city in another country.The car stopped when they arrived at their destination. A luxury hotel that Jake had booked. It turned out that Jake had prepared everything as well as possible. He chose all the best. He even chose a VIP room in a resort hotel in Hawaii.“I like the atmosphere and the vibe.” Caroline commented. A happy smile was etched on her sweet lips. Her eyes sparkled as she gazed at the surroundings. A gust of wind made her hair loose.Jared loved it when he saw Caroline feeling happy like that. His only
Caroline rose to her feet; she was about to return to the hotel room because she felt that it was not safe to be in a place like this alone. She had often heard that Hawaii was a beautiful city with freedom that people loved. Drinking parties and sex parties are there. However, she did not expect that she would be targeted for sex by a stranger. The trauma of the harassment she received a few months ago has not gone away; now a new trauma has emerged. She was even more afraid to make love."Hey." Jared called out in confusion when he was about to meet Caroline, but she just walked past him.Jared frowned, confused by Caroline's change in attitude. He felt that he had made a mistake in letting Caroline go to the beach alone. He thought that Caroline was upset with him because he didn't accompany her."Caroline! Honey!" Jared turned around; he chased after her and tried to apologize. He grabbed Caroline's wrist, stopping her in her tracks.Caroline was initially about to scream and hit
Caroline has a fever after almost drowning with Delia in the lake yesterday. Luckily Jared wasn't home yesterday when she came home soaking wet. So, until today, she had not told her husband anything and considered yesterday's incident an accident. If she had given up hope yesterday, she would have been nothing but a name by now.Jared, who was ready to leave for the office after working from home yesterday, returned to the room to see his wife's sudden fever. The man looked worried and called the doctor to check Caroline's condition.The doctor prescribed medication to reduce the fever after examining Caroline's condition. Because there was important business at the office that could not be left behind, Jared was forced to leave his wife in a sick condition. However, he asked Thalius to stay at home and look after Caroline while he worked.Jared had just arrived at the office when Thalius called and said that Caroline didn't want to eat, even though she had to take medicine to bring
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
