Caroline's expression twisted with disdain. "If that's the case, then you better make sure to discipline her properly from now on. Tell her to stop finding fault with me all the time!"

With those words, Caroline forcefully stormed out of the room, leaving Evan standing alone in his office, his brows furrowed in thought.

After a moment, he retrieved his phone and dialed Reuben's number. "How's the investigation progressing?"

Reuben's voice came through the line. "Mr. Jordan, the deputy dean has passed away, so we couldn't confirm anything. However, we did find the teacher who taught Ms. Love that year."

He continued, "She explained that Ms. Love was bullied during that time, which caused her to suffer from some sort of trauma. But the orphanage covered it up."

A dark cloud crossed Evan's face.

"There's another matter," Reuben added.

"Go on," Evan urged.

"The dean informed me that the girl with the red mole on her earlobe went by the name Lyra. It's possible that Ms. Love chang

    After that, there was total silence.. Caroline was speechless at the door, her mind filled with questions. 'Who is the child Mom is talking about? It can't possibly be me. I am definitely Dad's child. Yes, his behavior has changed drastically over the years, but he was always a responsible father when I was young.' Caroline shook her head, dismissing the wild thoughts from her mind.Opening the door and entering, she found Katie sitting on the bed with an angry expression."Mom, did you argue with Dad again?"Startled by her daughter's presence, Katie turned to look at Caroline with a hint of panic. "Why didn't you tell me you were here?"Caroline took a seat beside the bed. After a brief silence, she inquired, "Mom, what did you mean when you mentioned a child who isn't Dad's?"Avoiding eye contact, Katie replied, "It's a child from one of your father's relatives. It has nothing to do with you. Don't meddle in this."Caroline sensed something amiss, but she wasn't sure how t

    "Your boss?" Katie was astonished.Caroline responded nonchalantly, "Dad's creditors keep bothering me. My boss noticed and he offered to provide a few bodyguards for my protection."Relieved, Katie let out a sigh. "I'm glad you're safe. Don't turn off your phone like that again. You scared me."Caroline briefly comforted her mother before ending the call. She then walked over to the window, feeling nervous as she looked down below and waited.In less than ten minutes, a black Maybach sped into the yard. Evan stepped out of the car and entered the villa, his demeanor ominous and gloomy. Caroline closed her eyes. Exhaustion consumed her as she anticipated Evan's fury that awaited her.Turning around, she headed towards the bedroom door with a sense of unease. As she reached for the doorknob, it suddenly swung open with a loud bang, striking her shoulder and causing a sharp pain.Instinctively, she cradled her shoulder and gazed up at the handsome yet gloomy face.

    Evan decided to visit Daniella in the hospital after completing his tasks for the night. As he entered her ward, Daniella quickly sat up, a smile forming on her face."Evan, you're here!" she said happily.He responded flatly, "Lie down, you don’t need to get up."A flicker of disappointment flashed through Daniella's eyes when she realized he didn't come closer to her."I’m fine. I feel much better after a night of rest," she sighed. "Sorry for causing you trouble again yesterday."He furrowed his brows. "Don't go to her again. She's terrible. Please protect yourself."Daniella asked shyly, "Can I assume that you care about me?"Evan's eyes dimmed significantly. "There are certain things you can definitely avoid."Daniella's expression froze, not hearing the response she hoped for. But then, she noticed his tired and handsome face."Didn't you get a good rest last night, Evan?" she asked with affection.He responded curtly, devoid of emotion, "I'm going to go since you're fi

    For the next three days, Lily would inform Evan about Caroline's refusal to eat every time he returned home. He had initially tolerated it, but at the end of three days, he had reached his limit.She was willing to trade her health to run away freely with another man?!With a grim expression, Evan made his way upstairs. After dismissing the bodyguard, he entered Caroline's room.The only source of light in the dark room came from the computer. He noticed Caroline curled up on the bed, peacefully asleep.As he approached her, he caught sight of two bottles of medicine on the side of the computer. His frown deepened when he picked them up and realized they were acute pain relievers, not the gastric medicine he expected. Opening the cap, he discovered that there wasn't much left.Putting the medicine aside, he walked closer to the bed and gently shook Caroline awake. "Get up!"Caroline, feeling dizzy from hunger, opened her eyes and saw his handsome face. She thought it was a halluc

I understand."After Nic left, she took a shower and donned a robe before settling in the living room to make a phone call.When the call was connected, she demanded, "Put them on the line."As the door creaked open, her adoptive father's disapproving voice reached her ears. "Go away! I won't speak to her!"The watchman spoke, "You can speak now, Ms. Love."With a smile, she greeted, "Mom, Dad, it's been a while since I called. Seems like you've both developed quite a temper.""Shut your mouth! We never should have adopted you!" Her adoptive mother's voice was filled with anger."Don't be so harsh. I just want to know if you've reconsidered my proposal.""I’ve been an honest man my whole life! I can’t lie with my eyes wide open!" Her adoptive father declared firmly."What about you, mother? Do you share the same sentiment?" Daniella inquired after taking a sip of wine."My decision stands! Just le

    "What were you thinking?!" The man's voice pierced through Caroline's thoughts, jolting her back to reality.She lifted her head, her expression filled with guilt. "I'm sorry. I couldn't react in time."Seeing her guilty look, Evan's anger seemed to dissolve, and he sighed. "Forget it, get in the car."Caroline nodded quietly and looked at the hospital from afar. Then, she followed him into the car.As the engine roared to life, she mumbled softly, "Thank you."Evan removed his dirty coat without acknowledging her gratitude. There was a flicker of irritation in his beautiful eyes as he wondered, 'I rushed out without thinking to save Caroline at the first sign of danger. What's wrong with me? My life is more valuable than hers!'"Who do you think you might have offended lately?" He asked coldly, his tone filled with a hint of suspicion.Caroline shook her head, her brows furrowing.

After careful consideration, she decided to reach out to her friend Paige for help. She swiftly sent a text, "Paige, can you help me with something?"Paige responded promptly, expressing her willingness to help.

    Reese winced in pain. "Alright, ma'am. I guess I can read your mind? Be gentle!"Liora relaxed her grip at last. "Right, when are we going to that place you mentioned previously?""There's no rush. Your body isn't up for constant actions now. What if you get hurt by those harmful spirits again? I've already committed myself to you out of guilt. If it happens again, I won't have anything else to offer."Liora chuckled. "You make it sound like I'm desperate for your compensation.""What's wrong with that? I'm a strong, handsome man, and everyone loves me!" said Reese, displeased.Liora was astounded by his narcissism.She took a deep breath and said, "Reese.""Hmm?"Liora said, "In truth, I'm not the best choice to be your partner because of my profession. Those spirits may bother me from time to time. I'm the complete opposite of Isaac because of my negative physique.""What happens when you have a negative physique?""Spirits will be drawn to bother me and might cause me a lo

    Reese and Isaac couldn't perceive the spirit, but they witnessed a dark mist dissipating before them.Isaac asked in astonishment, "What's happening, Lia?"Liora turned and answered, "The female spirit didn't want to move on, so her soul has been dissolved.""Dissolved? Do you mean her soul has been destroyed?" asked Reese. Liora nodded and looked around. "Uncle Kenny, please help me find the six spirits."Kenny took on the task and brought those fearful spirits in just a few minutes. Liora asked, "Do you want to choose the same option as her or come with me to Cross Chapel?""Cross Chapel!""We would have left long ago if we weren't trapped here by her threats!""She wouldn't let us go even in death. Aren't our lives worth anything?"After Fiery Red was gone, these spirits began to complain in anger.Liora was infuriated by their complaints. "How dare you criticize her! She may be responsible for your deaths, but what about you then? Do you think you bear no responsibil

    "That's easy for you to say! Those who caused my death may have become spirits, but I still want to stop them from moving on!" Fiery Red barked. Liora frowned. "So, you're implying that those six students caused your death?""Why would I kill them otherwise?"Liora said, "It's time to let them go now that they've faced your revenge. Keeping them trapped is like trapping yourself. Why bother?""Allowing them to move on is letting them off too lightly!" Fiery Red roared. Liora said, "Your obsession is too strong and is keeping you trapped here. You're constantly hurting yourself with painful memories. If you move on properly, it will be a kind of liberation from your past.""Don't preach to me! I'll make it simple for you. It's either you die or my soul gets destroyed!" Fiery Red snapped. She was about to attack Liora just as she finished her sentence. Liora was planning to call out to Isaac when a figure suddenly showed up. Kenny rushed over and blasted away Fiery Red."Y

    Tyler did not comment further upon hearing Liora's reply. In the evening, Isaac returned home from school to find Liora already there. He hurried over, brimming with excitement. "You're back, Lia! How are you feeling? Have you recovered from your injuries?"Isaac's smile stretched from ear to ear.Liora glanced at Isaac meaningfully and said, "Please do me a favor tonight, Isaac."Isaac nodded repeatedly. "Sure, are we heading to the campus?"Liora looked at Isaac in astonishment. "Are you not scared anymore?"The smile on Isaac's face faded slowly. "Spirits are scary, but I don't want to see you bullied by them again, Lia. I wanted to destroy those spirits on the same day after seeing you suffer. However, they told me to respect your decision, so I didn't do that."Liora caressed Isaac's head affectionately. "You've grown, Isaac. You know how to look out for me now."Isaac took Liora's hand and held her hand tightly in his own. "Lia, I've always cared about you. Next time you

    Reese said, "Yes, you have been in love with her for 15 years and have invested a lot of time for her. However, haven't you noticed that Lia is a very rational person? As soon as she figures things out, she can move on immediately."Chester's breathing became irregular. He took two deep breaths shakily while staring at Reese. "Yes, she is more sensitive and rational than anyone else."Reese said, "I'm going to give you another analogy. If Lia chooses to be with me, what are you going to do?""Nothing. I said before that I'd respect Lia's choice no matter what. Similarly, you don't have to worry about anything else. I won't harbor any resentment because of love," Chester replied. Reese said, "In other words, you'll continue to be friends with Lia even if we end up together, is that right?"Chester frowned. "Lia and I are friends. If we can't be together, our relationship will remain the same as before. You like Lia, but you can't stop me from being friends with her, Reese."Reese

    Reese raised his right arm and said, "My entire right arm was covered in blood at the time. I watched the removal of rotten flesh from your back with my own eyes. I couldn't sleep peacefully for days.""That's easy! Just get the doctor to prescribe sleeping pills to you. You will be able to sleep better, right?" Liora said while giggling. Reese crouched down next to the bed, smiling. "Lia, are you mad at me?"Liora was confused. "Mad at you? For what?"Reese scratched his nose. "If I didn't take you there, you wouldn't have gotten injured."Liora took a glance at him, astounded. "This has nothing to do with you taking me there. It's the ignorant spirits. I'll deal with them all once I recover!""You still want to go back there?" Reese exclaimed. "Yes, of course! Hades will be delighted if I can send the seven spirits to him," Liora said. Reese looked at the joyous smile on Liora's face, feeling guilty. "I was hoping that you'd scold me instead of talking to me so casually."

    Reese sent away Tyler and the other, surging them to get some rest while he remained seated, his gaze fixed on Liora.She slept peacefully, her chest rising and falling slowly with each breath. Meanwhile, a nurse approached. Reese noticed her and hastily stood up. "Hello, nurse."The nurse asked, "How can I help you?"Reese said, "May I inquire when Liora can be transferred out of the ICU?"The nurse said, "I'm not too sure about that. It depends on the healing of her wounds and vital signs. She has the most extensive wound that I've ever seen on a girl. She might end up with scars…"The nurse opened the door and walked inside upon saying that. Reese was overwhelmed by a sense of guilt as he thought of the debt he owed to Liora. He knew he could never fully repay it in this lifetime.-Three days later, Liora was transferred out of the ICU.After learning about the incident, Caroline and Evan rushed to the hospital. They were heartbroken to see Liora lying prone on the be

    Fear and worry flooded Reese's mind, making it impossible for him to sleep. He opened his eyes and looked at the sky through the skylight. Reese could not help Liora in her profession, so he wondered if he could help out in her safety. He thought about it before he grabbed his phone to text Tyler. Reese: [Can you tell me where Ms. Yelena is staying?]Soon, Tyler texted Yelena's hotel and room number. Reese: [Thank you, my friend.]Tyler sneered.Tyler: [I haven't settled the score with you over Lia's predicament.]Reese: [I'll accept any punishment you deem necessary. It was my mistake, and I'll take responsibility for it.]There was no reply from Tyler afterward.Reese did not send another text, so he started the car and drove to the hotel. -Half an hour later, Reese arrived at the door of Yelena's room. He pondered briefly before knocking on the door. Soon, he heard a response. "Coming."Yelena opened the door and was surprised to find Reese. "Are you the lad fro

    Liora opened her palm. The outline of the charm was vague, but she could feel its intense energy. She took a deep breath and stood up. After sensing her movement, the spirits glanced at her. Liora turned to look at them and felt the same feeling that stopped her from leaving again!Suppressing the fear, Liora braced herself to walk out of the door.The closer she got to the door, the more intense the gloomy presence became—she felt as if her soul was being crushed. "Don't be scared, Lia!""Try to walk out, Lia! They won't hurt you!""Lia! Axel, Ty, Mr. Gates, and I are waiting for you!"Αfter hearing their voices, Liora shed tears. She gnashed her teeth and continued to stride toward the door, which seemed so close yet remained out of reach. She took a deep breath, raised her hand with the charm, and attempted to walk closer. This time, the spirits all turned to look at her. They rushed forward in unison when they sensed Liora was about to touch the door. Sensing t
