Alisa asked, "My family taught me all about business management. What's your background?""I don't have formal training, but I am motivated to learn and grow. You're right. Just relying on good designs won't sustain me in this industry forever. Aesthetic preferences change over time. However, I believe in continuous learning."Who's to say I'll stop at my current design theories? Everyone carves their own path to success. My establishment of TYC is a testament to that, isn't it?"Caroline's calm and measured response gradually changed Alisa's expression.After a moment, Alisa smiled. "You possess a unique presence. I've revised my opinion of you.""Thank you for your endorsement. Welcome aboard," Caroline replied, extending her hand.Alisa shook it happily. "I'm looking forward to your performance."Meanwhile, a man in a black suit emerged from the airport.Reuben followed closely behind with their luggage, but Evan suddenly stopped.Startled, Reuben halted the luggage trolle
Caroline snapped at Evan, "Don't act so authoritative without knowing the truth!"Evan squinted at her and retorted, "Am I being authoritative, or are you just reveling in a dumpster fire?""Dumpster fire? Well, if that's the case, then you're a piece of trash, too," Caroline shot back, her laughter tinged with anger.Caroline turned away and pulled Kenny with her. "Let's go! I don't want to stand out here in the cold, arguing with him in the middle of the night."Kenny nodded and told Alisa, "Let's get in the car."Alisa didn't understand what the argument was about. Soon after, the three of them departed, leaving Reuben sighing as he watched Evan's lonely figure.'Why bother, Mr. Jordan? You know Ms. Shenton will always defend the other guys,' Reuben thought.-Caroline and Kenny checked Alisa into a five-star hotel before returning to Bayview Villa together.Kenny noticed the chicken coop in the yard as soon as he stepped out of the car. "Caroline, are you into chicken farm
Jade looked up and hurriedly got to her feet when she saw Kenny. "Who are you? I'm going to call the police on you for trespassing!""Me?" Kenny pointed at himself and chuckled. "I'm your fucking father!"At the same time, he was thinking, 'What the hell? Who in the world snaps at someone else at first glance and even threatens to call the police on them? Do I look like I'm easy to pick on?'Jade pointed at Kenny furiously and yelled, "You fucking bastard! What did you say?""I'm saying that I'm your fucking father!" Kenny said righteously. "Is there something wrong with your ears?" Jade seemed to be confused. Before she reacted, Kenny added, "Fuck off! You're in my way!"After saying that, he pushed Jade to the side.Jade put both hands on her waist and screamed, "Where the hell did you come from, fucking bastard!"Kenny paused in his tracks and smirked at Jade. "Definitely not from the trash, like you!""Y-You!" Jade was at a loss for words at Kenny's sharp retort.Kenny t
Axel picked it up. "Daddy."Evan said, "I'll come pick you up now."Axel was stunned, thinking, 'Do I have to go home so soon?'He pursed his lips. "Can you come later?"Axe's response made Evan frown, and he said gloomily, "Give me a reason.""Mommy went and bought some tasty food for us." Axel recalled Caroline's conversation with Kenny before she hung up and immediately added, "Daddy, why don't you go and pick Mommy up? She's at Anderson's Cafe and doesn't have a car."Tyler and Liora widened their eyes upon hearing that. Evan simply replied, "Okay."After Axel hung up, Liora complained, "Axel, why did you let scumbag Daddy get close to Mommy? He's a bad guy!"Axel's awkwardness made him keep his head hung and whisper, "I'm sorry. I just find Daddy very pitiful." Tyler sighed and comforted, "It's fine, Axel. Just don't do it again, and stop overthinking."Axel simply kept quiet. -Caroline was about to enter the cafe at 11:00 a.m., chatting with Naomi on her phone.
Caroline could only enter the cafe as she received no response.While waiting for her meal, she frustratedly checked the news on her phone, trying to distract herself.To her surprise, a video of Evan assaulting someone had become a trending topic online with a shocking headline: [CEO of MK Beats Elder Brother!]Caroline was stunned. 'So, Casey is Evan's brother?'Upon realizing that, she recalled how terrified Jamie had been when she encountered Casey.This revelation might explain the conflict between Evan and Casey. Otherwise, Evan wouldn't have attacked Casey just for touching Caroline.Although Casey was the victim, Caroline subconsciously felt that he was a villain. -Evan continued to assault Casey while taking him away.When the car came to a stop at Jordan Residence, Evan ordered someone to throw Casey out of the vehicle.Grimly, Evan exited the car and approached Casey, whose face was covered in deep wounds.Evan glared at Casey and warned coldly, "Remember, if yo
Caroline felt distracted as she headed back to Bayview Villa.Upon her arrival, she neglected to secure the burgers on her lap, causing them to spill onto the ground when she exited the car. She stared at the scattered food, lost in thought.Seeing this, Reuben quickly approached, gathered the food, and placed it back into the bag before handing it to Caroline.She accepted it stiffly and hoarsely asked, "Reuben—"Reuben appeared distant as he interrupted, "Ms. Shenton, I understand your question, but please refrain from asking."Caroline frowned and lowered her gaze, thinking, 'Yes, I no longer want any connection with Evan. Why should I inquire about him? But I can't help but think about him. He assaulted Casey. I'm certain he will face consequences, given Draco's nature. After all, he and Draco have never been on good terms.'Reuben couldn't bear to see Caroline like this any longer and reassured, "Ms. Shenton, stop overthinking. I must leave now."Caroline nodded slowly. "Al
Evan blinked and croaked out, "It's late. Go wash up and sleep."Axel hesitated, not wanting to bother Evan. He pursed his lips in concern, nodded, and headed upstairs.After washing up and returning to his room, Axel sat in front of the computer to review the surveillance footage from downstairs.Meanwhile, Evan calmly sipped wine in the lounge, glass after glass. His forehead still bore a bloody mark, and his expression was hostile.Axel's worry deepened. He had seen his father drink before, but this time was different. Evan was drinking with a body covered in injuries. Was something terrible happening?Both of his parents seemed to be harboring unusual emotions.However, Axel had a gut feeling that Caroline wouldn't harm Evan.Thus, he swiftly accessed the cafe's surveillance system and adjusted the footage to noon.To his shock, he witnessed Evan violently assaulting Casey.His eyes remained fixed on the disturbing scene when suddenly, a frantic cry pierced the silence d
Freya nodded, went forward, and checked Evan's temperature with a laser thermometer.His current temperature was 40°C. Freya frowned and suggested, "It's better to give him an injection. It'll cool him down faster."However, Caroline shook her head. "No, just give me the pills." She knew that Evan never accepted injections.Once, he had fainted due to a severe fever. The doctor arrived to administer an infusion, but he removed it after waking up.He always behaved that way, so it was better not to go into so much trouble.Freya asked, "Should I handle his injuries, too?""Do they need stitches?" Caroline asked.Freya shook her head. "No, that's unnecessary." As she spoke, she retrieved the medicine from her medical kit. "This is the antipyretic. He can take it despite having had wine."Tell him to take one every four hours but stop once his fever subsides. He can also have these anti-inflammatory pills, but only once a day. I'll leave the pills here. Call me if any issues
