Chapter 4 Make Things Easy for Her

After breakfast, the driver drove them to the company in Evan’s black Maybach.

Half an hour later, the black Maybach stopped in front of the company.

The driver respectfully opened the door for Evan, who stepped out elegantly in a well-tailored black coat, exuding a commanding aura.

Loosening his tie, Evan handed documents to Caroline, his deep eyes freezing slightly when they landed on her pink lips.

Suddenly, he raised his hand and gently rubbed the corner of her lips with his calloused fingers.

"There’s a little lipstick smudged outside your lipline."

As Evan wiped away the stray lipstick from Caroline's lips with his thumb, his warm and gentle touch caused Caroline's eyes to tremble uncontrollably.

Catching sight of her flustered and helpless reflection in Evan's eyes, Caroline quickly composed herself. She thanked him calmly, despite her fluttering heart.

Evan withdrew his hand and smiled before striding confidently toward the office.

Meanwhile, Caroline managed to suppress the slight palpitations in her heart as she switched on her iPad and hastened to follow Evan. She needed to report on today's work schedule.

"Mr. Jordan, there's a meeting with the higher-ups at nine o'clock—"

"Mr. Jordan!"

Before Caroline could finish speaking, an unfamiliar woman suddenly rushed over.

The woman pounced on Evan and grabbed the corner of his shirt tightly, pleading desperately, "Mr. Jordan! Please tell HR to keep me. I really need this job!"

Evan's cold eyes filled with disdain as he glanced at the bodyguards beside him and growled, "Get her out of my sight!"

Hearing this, the bodyguards at the side quickly stepped forward. They grabbed the woman's hand and dragged her away.

However, the woman seemed to have gone crazy. She used all her strength to resist the bodyguards.

"Let go of me! Please give me some time to talk to Mr. Jordan! Mr. Jordan, just a few minutes! Please!"

Noticing the displeasure on Evan's face, the bodyguards quickly tightened their grips.

As the woman struggled against the bodyguards, her long hair swayed in the sunlight, and the red mole on her earlobe caught Evan's attention, freezing his gaze.

He immediately stopped the bodyguards. "Stop!"

As the bodyguards stopped, the woman approached Evan, trembling with fear and desperation.

Tears fell as she introduced herself, "Mr. Jordan, my name is Daniella Love. I have something to say to you. Please."

Evan's gaze was complicated as he stared at the woman's earlobe. Unknowingly, his voice softened. "Come with me."

With gratitude in her eyes, the woman replied, "Thank you so much, Mr. Jordan."

Evan turned to look at Caroline and instructed, "Postpone the meeting."

Caroline opened her mouth slightly as if to say something but quickly swallowed her words.

As she watched Evan leave with the woman, Caroline forced a smile and shut her mouth.

*

Caroline returned to her office desk after completing all of her boss's instructions.

However, before she could reach her seat, the vision of the sight before her swayed and she stumbled, grabbing onto the table to steady herself.

As she regained her balance, she heard the sound of Daniella's silver bell-like laughter ringing in her ears.

Looking up in front at the CEO's office which was separated from hers by a glass wall, Caroline saw Evan and Daniella engrossed in conversation. Although she didn't know what they were discussing, their joyful expressions suggested that Daniella might be the person Evan had been searching for.

Caroline felt a bitter pang in her heart but tried to suppress it as she sat back down at her desk and forced herself to focus on her work.

*

In the afternoon, an announcement was issued by the Human Resources Department stating that Daniella had joined the fashion design department as the new deputy head.

Seeing this message, Caroline felt a lump in her throat.

She couldn't help but think back to the day when Evan had first noticed her mole, the very thing that had helped her stand out from the other candidates and secured her the position of his personal assistant. Now, Daniella seemed to have a similar advantage.

Since the person he was really looking for had returned, Evan would undoubtedly treat Daniella well.

Just as she was deep in thought, there was a knock on the door. "Ms. Shenton."

Caroline retracted the sadness in her eyes and closed the announcement page. "Come in."

The door opened, and Reuben strode in. He had a grave look on his face.

"Ms. Shenton, Mr. Jordan wants you to take care of the new deputy head of the fashion design department, Ms. Daniella Love," he said.

Caroline was taken aback by the unexpected request. She had no authority over the fashion design department, and furthermore, she had only met Daniella once. How could she take care of her?

Seeing Caroline's hesitation, Reuben explained further, "Mr. Jordan wants you to head over to the fashion design department and ensure that no one creates any problems for Ms. Love."

Caroline took a deep breath, trying to hide her frustration. She clenched her fists under the desk, averted her eyes, and replied with forced calmness, "I understand."

    Reuben left without a word, and Caroline slumped into her chair. She covered her face with her hands to hide the sadness that threatened to consume her. Evan's actions made it clear that he had no intention of keeping her as his personal secretary, now that the person he truly cared about was back. It was time for her to accept that she was merely a substitute. Buzz— Her thoughts were interrupted by the buzzing of her phone on the desk. It was her mother's attending doctor, Scott Wilson. Caroline anxiously answered the call. "Dr. Wilson, is something wrong with my mother?" "Caroline, do you have time to come to the hospital now?" Scott replied. Hearing Dr. Wilson's tone, Caroline quickly stood up, her heart racing. "Yes, I'll be right there!" * Twenty minutes later, Caroline arrived at the hospital entrance wearing only a simple shirt. Sneezing from the cold wind as she got out of the car at the hospital entrance, Caroline hurriedly ran towards the inpatient building.

    Caroline replied, "Go ahead, I'm listening." Katie opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling. She pursed her lips and took a deep breath. "Carol, you're actually not…" "Honey!" As Katie began to speak, an unexpected visitor barged into the ward. A man reeking of alcohol and cigarette smoke stumbled in, his scraggly beard adding to his disheveled appearance. He sat down opposite Caroline. "How did it go? Clay didn't bully you, did he?" Katie's face twisted with disgust. "What are you doing here? Haven't you caused enough trouble for us?" Ignoring Katie's hostility, Bradley Shenton smacked his lips and turned his attention to Caroline. "Carol, could you step out for a moment? I need to talk to your Mom alone." Caroline hesitated. However, she knew that her father rarely visited, so she decided to give them some space to talk. As she stood up from the chair, she warned Bradley, "Don't make Mom angry." Bradley nodded in agreement, but Caroline looked back every few steps

    Evan pushed aside his unwarranted concern and opened the car door with a cold expression. "Arrange for medicine to be sent to her tonight, and inform the HR department to grant her three days off." Then, he unexpectedly added, "Hire an attendant to take care of her meals and daily needs during this period." "Yes, Sir!" Reuben nodded and instinctively glanced at the French windows of the restaurant. As Reuben observed Daniella sitting in the upscale restaurant, ordering food with a radiant smile, he couldn't help but feel a whirlwind of emotions inside. * That night, Caroline didn't return to Evan's villa. Instead, she took the medicine Dr. Wilson had given her and fell asleep on the hospital bed until she naturally woke up. When she woke up, she noticed a needle on the back of her hand. Katie, seeing that Caroline had awakened, quickly reminded her, "Carol, don't move around. You have a fever. Dr. Wilson administered the IV drip for you." Caroline nodded weakly as she p

    Dr. Wilson averted his gaze and looked at Caroline. He nodded and departed. Recognizing it was inappropriate for him to linger, Reuben tactfully made his way to the elevator and patiently waited. The ensuing silence weighed heavily upon Caroline. She mustered the courage to speak, "Mr. Jordan..." "What do you gain from all this?" Evan coldly interjected. He turned away, his eyes hinting at mockery. "Do you expect my sympathy in return?" Caroline stood there, stunned. "Mr. Jordan, I don't understand what you mean!" Evan lowered his gaze, peering down at Caroline, who stood a head shorter than him. His handsome face radiated an icy coldness. His eyes, like thin ice, reflected a frigid glint as he uttered with a chilling tone, "Don't you find your attempts to elicit sympathy and portray yourself as pitiful quite juvenile? Or perhaps you feel that what I have provided you with isn't enough, and now you seek connections with a doctor to secure free treatment for your mother?"

    At eight o'clock in the evening, Caroline sent the updated schedule to Evan before leaving the office. As she stepped out, she noticed Reuben waiting by the car. Seeing Caroline, Reuben approached her and said, "Mr. Jordan asked me to send you back to rest." Caroline declined, "No need. I'll go home on my own." Reuben hesitated before continuing, "Ms. Shenton, there's something I'm not sure I should tell you." Caroline looked up, her voice weak as she replied, "Go ahead." "Mr. Jordan knows that you're sick, so he specially hired an attendant to take care of you, and that person is already waiting at Villa Rosa." Caroline furrowed her brow. What was his intention? Did he want to be with Daniella while continuing their relationship? Caroline sneered inwardly. She would never stoop so low as to agree to share a husband with another woman! Just as she was about to refuse again, Reuben lowered his voice and added, "Ms. Shenton, Ms. Love's identity has not been confirmed ye

    Caroline blinked in disbelief. In a flash, she understood. She quickly grabbed her phone and dialed Reuben's number. "Yes, Ms. Shenton?" Caroline asked urgently, "Did Mr. Jordan pay for my mother's medical bills?" Reuben responded, "Yes, Mr. Jordan didn't want me to tell you. He transferred 140,000 dollars into your mother's account as soon as he arrived at the hospital yesterday." Upon receiving the confirmation, Caroline immediately dialed Evan's number. "Mr. Jordan, where are you?" Evan's tone remained cold. "What do you want?" "I will return your 140,000 dollars to you!" Caroline declared firmly. Evan sneered dismissively. "Come to Villa Rosa." With that, he abruptly ended the call. Caroline held onto her phone, deep in thought. After a moment, she made up her mind and headed out of the hospital. * When she arrived at Villa Rosa, Caroline stepped into the darkened villa. She searched around the wall for the light switch. Before she could reach it, a famili

    Daniella extended her hand toward Evan's phone, ready to pass it to him. However, as she glanced at the caller ID displaying Caroline's name, a glimmer of coldness flickered in her eyes. She hesitated briefly, then swiftly ended the call and slipped the phone back into Evan's coat, feigning nonchalance. Meanwhile, Caroline remained frozen in place, her mind reeling, as she witnessed the abrupt termination of the call. Was he too occupied to answer? With determination, Caroline clenched her teeth and hailed a taxi to make her way to the casino. She desperately hoped Evan would return her call. * An hour passed. Caroline stepped out of the car and stood at the entrance of the opulent casino. Determined, she made her way through the bustling lobby, seeking directions that led her to Room 02. Taking a deep breath, she gathered her courage and pushed open the door. As the door creaked open, a pungent combination of smoke and the scent of blood assaulted her senses. Sever

    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
