Caroline burst into tears instantly. "Ty, is that you?"She couldn't believe her son was standing before her, safe and sound. She remembered him falling from up high...Tyler appeared frustrated. "Mommy, what are you talking about? Who else can it be if not me?"Caroline wiped away her tears after receiving an assuring response. "Nothing, Ty. I was just blabbering. I'm coming.""Come, Mommy."Caroline nodded and walked toward Tyler. After walking for a while, she realized she could not reach Tyler's side!Caroline looked up in terror. "Ty…""You're slow, Mommy. Walk faster."Caroline took a deep breath and ran toward Tyler. The further she ran, the further Tyler was. "Mommy…" Tyler's dark eyes were filled with disappointment. "Mommy, why aren't you here yet?""I'm coming!" Caroline answered. "Don't move. Wait for me.""It's late, Mommy…"Tyler's voice grew softer, and his tiny figure disappeared suddenly. "Ty?Caroline sat upright from the bed in the hospital, screa
"It's none of your business! Evan, why are you stopping me from seeing my son! I won't forgive you for the rest of my life if Ty is gone! It was you who did nothing! You were merciless and refused to help!" Caroline shouted. Paige stepped forward to explain after noticing Evan's displeased expression. "Calm down, Carline. I'll show you Ty, okay?"She pulled out her phone and made a video call to Alex swiftly. It did not take long before Alex picked up the call, and his face appeared on the screen. "What is it?" Alex's voice echoed.Paige said, "Turn the camera to Ty and let Carol… Huh?"Caroline grabbed the phone before Paige could complete her sentence. She stared at the screen closely. Tears welled up in her eyes as she saw Alex's camera focused on Tyler, lying quietly on the bed.'Ty is still alive…' she thought.He had no bandage or catheter; only an IV was on the back of his hand.She cried, asking, "What's wrong with him?""He received a strong dose of anesthesia, so
After a while, Caroline couldn't help but ask, "Why do you keep staring at me?"Evan sat gracefully in a chair, crossing his legs. "Let's talk about us."Caroline evaded the topic. "There's nothing between us to discuss.""Really? Then explain why you warned me that I'd regret it," Evan asked.Caroline said, "Words spoken in a moment of desperation hold little truth."Evan's expression was calm as if he had predicted that Caroline would not tell the truth. "I won't force you if you don't want to explain it. But I believe you'd like to know about Axel, right?" Evan said. Caroline looked at him. "What are you trying to say?""Axel is our child."Caroline did not wish to beat about the bush. "So what if he is?""I'm not planning on letting Axel meet you anymore," Evan said. Caroline was stunned. "Why not?"Evan scoffed. "Do you think you deserve to be Axel's mother?"Caroline chuckled. "What? Do you think the child is yours alone? He is my son, too! You don't have the righ
Caroline nodded. "Sure."In truth, her brother was right. Her children would not be caught in this situation again had she not taken it lightly.Neil explained, "I've talked to the police. They said Wayne caused the accident. He didn't hurt the other kids, just Tyler. He also revealed the real mastermind—Daniella. She's at the police station. Grandpa isn't helping her.""Who is that shrew? I'm going to beat her to death!" Kenny was filled with righteous fury. Neil glanced at him. "She is a member of the Xanders. Are you going to do it?"Kenny choked on his words. He was new in town but knew about the three influential families in Angelbay.He would get himself killed if he were to go against the powerful Xanders.Kenny cowered and said, "Uh… Sufficient resources ensure sustainability. Let's conspire first."Caroline's expression chilled as she thought of Daniella. She understood she had misjudged Daniella's cruelty. Daniella had not only mistreated Axel but also manipulated an
Kenny asked Caroline upon her return to the car, "How was it? Is she sentenced?"Caroline put on her seatbelt. "It's not that easy.""Huh? Why?" Kenny asked in shock.'Why…. It's going to take three full days to explain why,' she thought.Moreover, she knew that Grayson would figure out a way to save Daniella if she were to do something now.She was well aware that Daniella would behave for some time after being threatened. She did not wish for Kenny to get involved in her enmity. -The next day, Naomi came to the hospital to seek Caroline's signatures for some documents. She brought a fruit basket as well.Caroline accepted the gift and placed it on the bedside table. "Thank you. Remember to follow up on the factory in the next two days and update me if there is any information."Naomi nodded. "Sure. Ms. Shenton. Please check through these two documents and sign them."Caroline examined the documents closely. After a while, Paige entered the room. "I'm here, Carol."Ca
Caroline shook her head, her face terribly pale. Naomi might have been dead now if she hadn't acted fast before.She glanced at Naomi, noticing a scary cut on her arm. Quickly getting up, Caroline urged, "We need to go to the hospital, Naomi!"Naomi looked at her arm following Caroline's eyes. Her face was calm as if she couldn't sense any pain. "No need. It's not a big deal."Caroline said, "It's not nothing! Come, I'm taking you to the hospital!"-Naomi signed in and went into the emergency room. She got over ten stitches on her arm. Then, she had an X-ray that found a broken elbow.Caroline felt very guilty. "I will provide paid medical leave for you so you can recuperate at home, Naomi. I will remember what you did today. Thank you."Naomi muttered nonchalantly, "You've already thanked me repeatedly, Ms. Shenton. I don't need to rest, so I don't want the medical leave.""No! You can't go to work like this," Caroline said. Naomi said, "You can't stop me from working from
"Hmm, I miss you too. Mommy won't let you go to school because she wants you to rest at home for a few days to recover." Axel made comforting remarks to Liora with great effort. "I know. How about you, Axel?" Liora said with her cheeks puffed up. She said angrily, "Did he take extra care of you the past two days?"Axel kept quiet for a moment. "Yes."Meanwhile, he was seated before his laptop, gazing at the surveillance video of the study, his face gloomy. Over the last few days, his father had been retreating to the study right after dinner. He would then immerse himself in work until midnight."I can relax knowing you're looked after. I'll draw and sleep early. Goodnight, Axel."Liora's soft voice lightened Axel's heavy mood slightly."Goodnight, Lia."-Liora passed the phone back to Scott and stared at him. "Papa Wilson, can I ask you something?" she asked.Scott's gaze was gentle. "What is it, Lia?""If that man learned that I'm his child and tried to reunite with me,
The bodyguard shook his head. "I don't know, but they are in a heated argument."Caroline set aside her spoon, puzzled, and went to the door. She heard two voices she recognized before she saw the people."Price, are you vengeful or something? Has my car offended you?" Paige shouted. "It was you who suddenly drove in reverse. I wasn't the one who crashed forward on purpose," Alex explained patiently. Paige burst out in laughter. "You might as well claim that I'm blind!""There's nothing I can do if you choose to think that way," Alex said lazily. "Damn it! If you hadn't come here for no reason, would my car crash into yours?""A certain individual asked me to visit Tyler to show concern on their behalf.""It's not a concern if you don't even have the courage to tell the person's name!"Caroline was about to speak while observing their endless argument. But before she could say anything, a light voice echoed. "It's terrifying to see them quarreling."Caroline turned her hea
