"Godmother, subdue him quickly. He pinched your face on purpose because he didn't want you to fall asleep!"Liora pounced on Tyler, flashing an adorable, cunning smile.Paige was stunned. "Did I fall asleep?"Liora and Tyler looked at her strangely. Liora said, "You fell asleep for two nights in a row while reading us bedtime stories."Tyler smirked. "Generally, piggies don't know when they fall asleep."Paige swung her fist at Tyler in rage. "I'm exhausted all because of you two."Paige leaned on the bed, yawned, and said, "I didn't know it's so tiring to care for children. How did Carol survive this?"The two children lowered their heads upon the mention of Caroline. "I wonder if Mommy is feeling better," Liora said. Tyler propped himself on Liora's head. "It's useless to panic. We will just wait for Mommy to come home."Liora raised her chubby arms to pull away Tyler's arm. "I miss Mommy, Tyler.""Call her if you miss her."Paige said it before Tyler could speak. S
Caroline answered casually, "Good then. You may approve the funds directly. We will be receiving compensation from MK soon, too."Kenny had already heard about the factory matter from Paige. Kenny grumbled, "Think about the men you're affiliated with. I had a change of impression toward Evan not long ago. Yet judging by the current situation, he's still a scum…"Kenny complained endlessly, and Caroline did not interrupt him either. She knew he was exhausted and overwhelmed recently, so she gave him a chance to vent. When Kenny was tired of talking, Caroline said, "Get the assistant to get phones for the children tomorrow."Kenny said, "Huh? You're finally willing to get them phones, huh? I'll do it, and I promise you that it will be done!"Caroline chuckled. "Aren't you so busy that you don't have time to go home?"Kenny said, "That's true. I've been sleeping in the company for two nights! I'm going home tomorrow to get some spare clothes. I need to end the call soon because I
Caroline smiled when she saw Casey. "I believe that it's not a coincidence this time, right?"Casey chuckled and said, "It's not, indeed. I'm out only after seeing you out."Caroline leaned on the chair and observed Casey calmly. "What is your goal, Mr. Jordan? Are you just here to chat with me out of boredom?"Casey changed the direction of his wheelchair and sat side-by-side with Caroline. "The latter."Caroline distanced herself without changing her expression. "Speak your mind.""Do you hate Evan?" Casey asked. Caroline opened her bottle. "I'm not answering that.""I shall make a guess then. Evan didn't visit you after you got severely injured, so I believe there are conflicts between you two." Caroline could not be bothered to listen to his analysis. "It's none of your business, even if there are.""Are you okay with him abandoning you after using you?" Casey asked. Caroline said, "Is there anything else I can do to seek revenge even if I'm not okay with it?""Why no
Daniella cursed inwardly, 'Damnit, Caroline! Are you competing with me for a man again? You've gotten close to Casey without my knowledge! I saw him holding your wrist earlier!'When did you two become so close? You're getting involved with Casey while cozying up to Evan! Your actions are disgraceful!'No, I won't accept this! I must find a way to make Casey commit to me.'As Daniella watched Casey maneuver his wheelchair toward her, she concealed her jealousy and smiled brightly while stepping out from behind a pillar."Mr. Jordan!" Daniella called out softly.Casey glanced over, his lack of surprise suggesting he knew about Daniella's presence when he held Caroline's wrist earlier. He did it deliberately, fully aware of Daniella's vulnerability.Casey gently nodded at Daniella. "What brings you here, Ella?"Daniella gnashed her teeth, thinking, 'Would I have witnessed that scene if I wasn't here?'She showed him the flowers she carried. "I thought you needed some rest after l
"You keep coming back! I returned Evan to you as you wanted, and now you're thinking about going after Casey?" Daniella shouted emotionally.When Caroline saw Daniella's exasperated state, she became convinced of her previous suspicion. She believed Daniella had exposed Jamie's identity.She stood up, approached Daniella, and chuckled. "Returned to me? So Evan is just a tool to you."Daniella retorted, "I didn't say that!""No? You abandoned him after you couldn't use him, right? And now you're trying to get involved with Casey," Caroline accused."Don't you know Evan and I called off the engagement? I'm single, so I have the right to date!" Daniella shouted.Caroline scoffed. "Yes, you didn't mind putting Evan and his mother in trouble just to get close to Casey."Daniella looked at Caroline in shock and panic. "What nonsense are you talking about?""You know very well I'm not speaking nonsense!" Caroline narrowed her eyes. "Aren't you worried they'll come after you for all th
Caroline said, "Joan, I accidentally—""Accidentally got pregnant with your fourth child? I'm going to be this child's god-grandmother!" Joan was delighted. Caroline said, "Fell! I fell accidentally, Joan!"Joan kept quiet for a while before she scoffed in contempt. "Fuck! I thought you were pregnant again. This is boring."Caroline said, "Is my injury not important?""It's not. Anyone can fall and hurt themselves. Where's the hospital? I'm coming over now."After their phone call, Caroline sent Joan the hospital's address and her room number.Within an hour, Joan arrived.Upon entering the room, Caroline saw Joan in a striking red outfit and high heels that showcased her appearance. Despite being 40 years old, she maintained herself so well that she could easily pass for a 25-year-old woman. Her pixie-cut hair gave her a carefree yet elegant look.Joan walked in carrying a bouquet of vibrant red roses. However, her joy turned to shock when she saw Caroline's bandaged arms an
Alex was stunned for a moment. He found the remark to be strange. After a long while, Alex came to realize the situation and said, "Are you trying to get me to buy fake votes?"'Fuck! When did Evan become so shameless?' he wondered."You are planning to marry Paige in the future, right?" Evan asked with contempt. "Aren't you willing to make this sacrifice for her?"Alex was rendered speechless, thinking, 'This has nothing to do with Paige and me. Evan is using me to win over Joan.'He slumped in his seat. "Evan, has anyone ever told you how despicable you can be?"Evan sneered. "Businessmen only care about profits."Alex rolled his eyes. "Fine. I'll spend the money to buy fake votes."Evan nodded. "Once the task is done, I'll expose Paige's identity intentionally. Her value as a fashion designer will skyrocket with all those votes, benefiting her."Alex hadn't expected Evan to plan so cunningly. Indeed, if Paige won a fashion design competition against a world-class opponent,
Daniella scoffed. "Do you think I really want to touch you?"Yuliana asked, "What do you want to tell me?"Daniella said, "Help me with one more thing."Yuliana frowned. "Why would I help you again?"Daniella chuckled. "Don't forget that it's not next week yet, and your father is still idling at home."Yuliana's expression changed drastically. "Don't you dare threaten me with this!"She felt very bad for Evan when she helped Daniella and refused to allow Daniella to order her to hurt Evan."How should I say this? You're my cousin, so why would I threaten you?" Daniella patted Yuliana's back. "I just can't figure out how I can have Casey to myself, and I need you to come up with ideas."Yuliana was astonished. "You're not targeting Evan?""I wasn't targeting him previously either. I just want to help Casey," Daniella said. Yuliana's hostility was reduced. "What do you want to do to Casey?"Daniella said, "You're not working yet, so why don't you help me find out Casey and Ca
