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

    Yuliana nodded, feeling embarrassed for scolding Caroline in the past when she didn't know better."Yes," Yuliana replied.Greta noticed something and said, "We've seen you grow, Yulia. You're more mature now. I need a favor from you."Yuliana said, "Go ahead.""Can you help watch over Caroline and keep an eye on her relationship with Neil?" Greta asked.Yuliana agreed. "Sure, Daniella asked me to watch her too."Greta frowned. "Why did she ask you to do that?"Yuliana explained how Daniella had threatened her with Thomas' return to the company. She also discussed the relationship between Caroline and Casey.Greta chuckled, "Scheming, jealous, and arrogant. She can't be Ellie's child. However, we must maintain a good relationship with her until we have evidence to prove otherwise.""Mom, I hate her and can't explain it!" Yuliana confessed."Hate can be a form of motivation, too. You must endure the hardship until we find leverage over Daniella," Greta advised.Yuliana unders

    Casey wanted to make Evan jealous by being with the woman Evan loved.'He'll look pained, with sorrow in his eyes. Just thinking about it excites me!' Casey was thrilled at the thought of Evan's reaction.Caroline felt an odd vibe from Casey. It sent a shiver down her spine, making her want to leave.'A pervert... That's what he is,' she thought.Even though Casey showed no emotion, it was evident to Caroline.Despite her discomfort, Caroline reluctantly nodded. "Sure."Yuliana overheard their conversation and wondered if they were talking about Evan. She wondered why Caroline sought revenge on Evan. Casey had a reason, but what was Caroline's motive? She decided to share this information with Daniella.-Daniella received Yuliana's message and frowned. She wondered if Casey was using Caroline to target Evan.Daniella bit her lip, deep in thought. She questioned if Casey's animosity toward Evan was due to Evan forcing him to stay abroad for 15 years. She also considered whethe

    Daniella panicked and looked doubtful as she clutched her phone tightly and stared at the door.She couldn't let Casey be with Caroline. She doubted Casey's feelings for Caroline, and that could put her in a dangerous position.-Meanwhile, Caroline and Mary returned from the grocery store with fruits.As Caroline headed back to the room, she noticed a familiar figure. Her steps halted, and her eyes widened in shock upon recognizing the person.Approaching the person, she uttered, "Scott."Scott was taken aback. He turned to face Caroline just moments later. Before he could call out to her, Caroline's expression turned cold. "You didn't tell me you were back."Scott appeared slightly frustrated. "Don't be upset. I wanted to surprise you, but you found me first."Caroline composed herself and said, "Next time, please inform me in advance so I can..."Then, Caroline remembered she hadn't fully recovered yet.Scott noticed Caroline in her patient gown and frowned. "Why are you

    Outside the clinic office, Yuliana eavesdropped on their conversation attentively. She removed her cap and frowned deeply. Despite her resemblance to Eleanor, she disapproved of Caroline's promiscuity.'How did Evan fall for her?' she wondered.Yuliana opened her photo album and reviewed the pictures she had taken earlier. Among them were snapshots of Caroline, Casey, and Scott.She contemplated for a moment and then sent all the photos to Evan's email.-In the afternoon, Evan returned from the construction site to find Axel peacefully napping on the sofa. As he approached Axel and began to wake him, Axel stirred on his own.Axel's lips quivered as he focused on the figure in his vision. "Daddy's home."Despite his desire to sit up, Axel's arms were too sore and weak to support himself. He had forgotten about the severe nosebleed he had had before falling asleep.He had lost so much blood that he still felt dizzy, making it impossible to get up now."Axel, are you keeping som

    Evan's anger flared as he heard the pity in Axel's remark. He wondered, 'What could Caroline have done to entice Axel to the point where he'd fight for her?'As he pondered, his phone suddenly rang. An email from an unknown sender popped up. He opened it and discovered a photo of Casey and Caroline with big smiles, suggesting a close bond.Seeing this picture enraged Evan. He couldn't understand why Caroline would be spending time with Casey. Had she not seen the news? Was she under Casey's influence? Why would she associate with such a contemptible man?Evan recalled Casey's disturbing confession: He wanted to touch Caroline and subject her to the same torment he inflicted on Jamie. Casey wanted Caroline on her knees and be his sex slave!Evan's expression darkened as he ignored the remaining photos and immediately called Caroline. Before she could speak, he asked, "Why are you spending time with Casey?"Caroline was taken aback, wondering, 'Why is he suddenly questioning me out

    Alex stepped out of the car, carrying bags of food. He approached Paige and said, "I'm here to apologize."Paige glanced at the two large bags in his hands and replied, "I won't accept it. Who knows if you'll just use me again after I do?"Frustrated, Alex said, "I've given you space the past few days, hoping you'd calm down enough to hear me out."Paige sneered. "Explanation? What's left to explain? Can you dare to tell the truth, Alex?" Alex questioned, "What truth?"Paige stared at him coldly. "Admit that you got close to me to help Evan!"Alex appeared guilty and admitted, "I did consider that before—"Before Alex could finish, Paige slapped him.The two children were shocked by the scene."Godmother is tough!" Liora exclaimed.Tyler silently resolved not to marry someone like Paige in the future.Alex was bewildered and looked at Paige in frustration. "Why did you hit me?"Paige's eyes welled up with tears as she shouted, "Calling you a dog is the least of my concerns

    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
