"Father!" someone shouted not far away after the female worker's remark.Caroline and the elderly man turned their heads to see a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes hurrying towards them, looking nervous.Caroline was taken aback when she saw the man, wondering, 'Is that Joseph Gull from Merlin School?'She recognized him from her search for schools for her children. He was the principal of an internationally renowned school that included elementary, middle, and high schools.Joseph approached the elderly man anxiously and asked, "Father, why did you come here alone?"Sam Gull smiled warmly and replied, "I decided to take a leisurely stroll and check out the newly imported materials for our children's school clothes."Joseph smiled and sighed. "Father, you could have left this to me.""That's not necessary," Sam interrupted Joseph. "I've already found a suitable fashion company."With a grin, Sam turned his attention to Caroline and asked, "Miss, would your company be
As soon as Kenny said that, Alex suddenly got up and took another seat.There was only a vacant seat beside Evan now.At the same time, Alex patted the vacant chair beside him and asked Paige to sit beside him.Kenny glared at Alex. "You did it on purpose, didn't you?" Alex laughed it off. "I can't get the air-con there. I'm feeling too hot, so I changed my seat."Kenny's lips twitched as he scolded, "You motherfucking did it on purpose! You want Caroline to sit there!"Alex looked at him provocatively. "Why don't you change your seat instead?"Kenny cursed softly, "Fuck! I won't let Caroline suffer if Alisa isn't here."Evan glared at Kenny upon hearing that.Feeling the cold, Kenny shuddered but stubbornly refused to admit defeat. He snorted before he fell silent.Caroline was put in a dilemma. She pushed Paige. "Go ahead. I'll sit here."Paige stopped glaring at Alex. "Got it. Don't fight with Mr. Jordan."At that time, music was played for the runway show. Its noise gr
Two gunshots echoed immediately after that.Caroline screamed frightfully.However, Evan kept a stern expression as he took hold of Caroline's arms and guided her to sit on the floor.The surrounding guests started running away, shoving and pushing chairs. The chairs then knocked against people. Evan held Caroline tightly in his arms and spoke calmly. "Don't be scared. I'll get you out of here!"Alex's scream came from behind. "Evan! Watch your back!"Evan immediately turned around and saw a thin man trying to stab them with a sharp knife. Thus, Evan pulled Caroline up and quickly protected her behind him.The man with the knife slashed Evan's arm.Caroline widened her eyes and screamed, "Evan!"The attacker shouted crazily, "Fuck! You guys must die! I want to kill all fucking capitalists like you!"Evan looked indifferent as he covered his arm and kicked the attacker's chest before the latter could slash him again.Consequently, the attacker fell head first.Evan's bodygu
Alex frowned and said grumpily, "Hey, you weren't looking at Caroline so coldly!"Evan looked at him disdainfully. "Don't disgust me."Alex smiled. "I'm just joking. How about this? Let me tell you something since you're hurt."Evan became somber. "Don't beat around the bush. Talk!"Alex said, "Caroline is going to celebrate Paige's birthday with her tomorrow at Starry Campsite. Dude, I risk being dumped by telling you this."Evan asked, "Is that all?"Alex looked at him suspiciously. "Aren't you going?"Evan remained silent and turned to get out of the car, leaving Alex behind.Thus, Alex was confused. -When Evan was back at Villa Rosa, he saw Axel dozing off in the living room. "Why aren't you in bed?"Axel immediately opened his eyes when he heard Evan's voice. "I was waiting for you."Evan said, "It's late. You should be in bed. I'll go with you tomorrow to see your mother."Axel was stunned. Before he reacted, Evan added, "Don't turn me down or tell her!"Axel pu
Kenny said, "Fine! Don't forget what you said. If not, you'll be hurt again."Caroline nodded and went upstairs to her children's room.Neil was still telling a story to the children softly when he saw Caroline come in. He immediately shushed her.After that, he put the book down and quietly walked out of the room. He closed the door and asked in concern, "Carol, you're pale. What happened?"Caroline touched her face and replied honestly, "Nothing. It's just that there was a criminal at the exhibition.""A criminal?" Nail raised his voice and inspected her, holding her arms. "Are you hurt?"Caroline pressed his arms down. "Neil, I'm fine. Don't worry. I was just scared."Neil sighed in relief. "I'm glad to hear that. You scared me."Caroline smiled before she became serious. "Neil, the next week is approaching."Neil's face sank. "I know. I'll organize Grandpa's birthday party and expose Daniella's vulgarity to everyone." Caroline was still worried about that affair. "Neil,
An hour later, Caroline reached the campsite with the children first.Starry Campsite was a spacious campsite with a lot of entertainment activities. When they walked past the horse-riding ground, Liora pointed at the pony and exclaimed, "Mommy, can I ride this pony?"Caroline held Liora's hand and walked slowly. "Sure, but we have to wait for your godmother to come first.""She's here." Tyler suddenly spoke up and looked ahead.Caroline looked over and saw Paige trot over while holding Alex's hand, greeting them enthusiastically.When Paige reached Caroline and the children, she gasped for breath and said, "We're not late, are we?""Yes, you're not late, but a bit slow." Tyler smiled elegantly and mocked Paige.Paige glared at him. "You're just like your father!"When she made that statement, Alex looked at Tyler with confusion. The latter had just stopped smiling.Alex wondered, 'He behaves like Evan and doesn't take after Neil at all.'When Caroline noticed Alex staring
Paige angrily stepped on Alex's feet. "I know what you're thinking!"Alex grimaced as he rubbed the back of his feet. "Can you be more gentle?""Oh, you're disgusted by me now, huh?" Paige raised her voice. "Yeah, that's who I am. Why do you ask me to change?"And stop pestering me if you prefer gentle women more. Pug, don't make me mad today!"When Alex successfully diverted Paige's attention, he immediately smiled apologetically. "Okay, I'm wrong. Come. Let me hug you." Paige pouted and snorted before throwing herself into his arms. Their little scene rendered Caroline and Evan speechless.Evan felt a surge of disdain as he turned around and grabbed the tongs from Caroline. "Allow me," he said.Feeling uncomfortable, Caroline quietly moved to the other side to enjoy some fruit.-The triplets were sitting in the tent face-to-face. Liora had her arms crossed as she stared at Axel solemnly. "Axel, you're going to be a traitor now, aren't you?" Axel could only explain s
Just as Liora was thinking about how to apologize, Olivia had already approached Evan. "Hey handsome, let me help you with the fire," she said shyly. Evan stared at Olivia suspiciously. Before he could say anything, she grabbed Evan's hand. Evan immediately retracted his hand and looked at Olivia unhappily. He warned her coldly, "Don't touch me!" Olivia looked at Evan even more shyly. She raised her hand and patted his arm lightly. "Oh, you don't have to be so polite around me. I understand." Evan frowned. "What are you talking about?" Olivia was blushing so much that her face was almost as red as a tomato. She pursed her lips to suppress her smile and nudged Evan with her body. "You know. I accept your feelings, so you don't have to act shy around me." Evan was rendered speechless. Seeing this scene, Caroline and the others were also stunned. What was going on? Paige exclaimed, "Oh my god! The boss oozes so much charm that he's somehow attracted a random woman to com
