Caroline took her medicine with a sip of water.Kenny held the glass and took Tyler outside, leaving Evan with a warning glance that went unnoticed.Caroline massaged her forehead and said, "I'm okay. You can go home."Evan leaned forward, concerned. "Why do you have a fever? I'll check your wound for infection."Caroline dodged his approach. "Eira changed my dressing this morning. There's no infection. I might have caught a cold."Evan's expression turned serious. "Why expose yourself to the cold in this weather?"Caroline slowly reclined against the headboard. "I saw MK's official announcement."Evan's gaze dimmed. "It's none of your business. You should rest."Caroline decided to confide in Evan. "I need to tell you something."Evan tucked her in and replied, "I know you're involved with Casey against your will."Caroline looked at him in surprise."You want to know how I figured that out, right? I'm not stupid," Evan grumbled.Caroline stayed silent for a moment. "Aren'
'Could Daniella have given me a disease because she's not clean?' Casey thought as he dialed Daniella's number.-At Xander Residence.When Daniella received Casey's call, she had just entered her room after dinner. She said gently, "Casey."Casey asked in a rather cold tone, "Have you been sick lately, Ella?"Daniella was stunned and replied, "No, Casey. Have you?"Worried, Daniella wondered if Casey had transmitted his illness to her.Casey's tone softened as he said, "It's alright that you don't have it. I'll be staying at Jordan Residence for a while. We can stay in touch over the phone."Daniella replied, "Sure."After they hung up, Daniella quickly undressed to inspect her body, fearing the worst. She didn't find anything unusual.She thought, 'If Casey has a disease, my life will be ruined. I can't rely too much on anyone. I must control both Casey and Evan.'Daniella's phone rang just as she was about to take a shower. It was Evan calling, and she answered eagerly.
Caroline shook her head, opened the door, and said, "Let's go."Paige got out of the car and followed Caroline to the floor where the journalist lived.Caroline activated the voice recording function on her phone at the door.Paige whispered, "So, you're recording conversations now?"Caroline glanced at her. "I've learned my lesson from past experiences."Paige gave a thumbs up. "Good move! You've become wiser. Should I knock?""Sure."Caroline knocked, and a man's voice echoed. "Who's there?"Paige immediately switched to acting mode. "Hello, I'm the newly hired property management personnel. I'm here to gather your thoughts on the residential area.""Ah, alright. I'll open the door."After the door swung open, Paige squeezed her way into the house first.The man, Pete Parr, appeared surprised. "Couldn't you have done that from outside?"Paige smiled and called out, "Come in, Carol."Caroline took two steps closer to Pete.Pete's expression drastically changed upon seein
Paige hung up quickly. Caroline gave her a stern look. "Have you gone to the hospital for a check-up, Paige?"Paige sighed. "Caroline, why are you nagging me like my mom? I'm fine! I don't have any pregnancy symptoms!""Not every woman experiences pregnancy symptoms. Don't ignore our advice," Caroline said, sounding concerned.Paige replied, "I really am fine! My periods have always been irregular.""Have you seen the doctor your mom recommended?" Caroline asked.Paige scratched her head. "I've been too busy to go."Caroline urged, "Go get yourself checked as soon as possible.""I'll do it after Mardi Gras. Luckily, I managed to free up some time today. Work gets really busy at this time of the year."Caroline understood how hectic work at MK could be, so she didn't press Paige further. She decided to figure out a way to get Paige to the hospital after Mardi Gras.-During the break, Tyler took a computer training course suggested by the principal while Liora played with he
Twenty minutes later, at Merlin's disciplinary office.Evan heard Liora's sobs as he approached the entrance."Why are you blaming me? He started calling me names first! I have a father!" Liora defended herself."You started a fight at such a young age, just like a troublemaker without a father! You even hurt my son. I won't rest until you're expelled from school today!" August's mother accused.Evan frowned upon hearing this exchange and entered the office, his tone cold as he declared, "I'd like to know who's trying to get my daughter expelled from school."The disciplinary office staff turned their heads simultaneously, shocked by his presence.Liora rushed to Evan, crying, "Daddy! I'm not fatherless!""You're still lying! Don't try to claim someone as your father!" August retorted with a stuffy nose.Evan exuded a commanding presence, making August's mother quickly cover his mouth. She trembled as she stood and stammered, "Mr... Mr. Jordan, I... I didn't know she was your c
"If that's the case, please proceed," Evan turned around, holding Liora in his arms, but halted abruptly after just two steps. "Reuben!"Reuben hurriedly approached from the door and called out, "Sir.""Reuben, do you recall a company called Goop Co. preparing for an IPO?" Evan asked.Glancing at Ursula, Reuben nodded. "Yes, sir. This is Mr. Goop's daughter, the owner of Goop Co."Evan instructed, "Make Goop Co. vanish from Angelbay within three days."Reuben nodded in agreement. "Yes, sir!"Ursula turned pale and collapsed on the sofa.-Meanwhile, at Bayview Villa.Paige and Caroline returned after their shopping trip.Caroline checked the time, noticing Eira in the kitchen. "Eira, haven't you gone to pick up Ty and Lia?"Eira turned to Caroline and replied, "Carol, the school called and told us not to go. They said Mr. Jordan would send the children home. By the way, the teacher called you multiple times, but you didn't answer."Caroline grabbed her phone, discovering te
Half an hour later, Evan reached Grand East Hospital.Several police officers were present outside Daniella's room. One of them approached Evan, saying, "Mr. Jordan, Ms. Love asked us to give you this before she lost consciousness."The officer handed Evan a sack filled with dusty medicinal herbs.Evan examined it with a puzzled expression. He discovered a note containing an image of the herbs, their scientific name, and the name of a supplement store, along with a message indicating they were helpful for late-stage leukemia patients.Evan returned the note to the sack and asked, "Is she severely hurt?"The officer replied, "She has multiple abrasions on her body. She kept talking about delivering this item to you."Mixed emotions swirled within Evan. Despite his dislike for Daniella, she had exerted considerable effort to aid Axel's recovery this time. It would be ungrateful not to allow her to see Axel after her efforts.After a brief conversation with the police officers, Eva
"Don't stop me from finding Caroline!" Evan yelled, trying to push Kenny aside.Kenny blocked the doorway, fuming, and asked, "How can you still have the audacity to see her?""My relationship with her is none of your concern!" Evan's eyes were cold.Kenny retorted, "It's my concern because I'm her friend! If you want to be with Daniella, why do you keep visiting Caroline? She's given you chances, but you've let her down repeatedly!"Evan grew impatient. "Get out of my way!"Kenny challenged, "I won't let you see Caroline with that attitude unless you fight me!"Evan narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists.Kenny panicked as he glanced at Evan's fists but refused to move."You should leave."Suddenly, Caroline's voice was heard.Kenny turned to her. "What are you doing out here? Haven't you given up on him yet?"Caroline calmly looked at Kenny. "Go inside first. I'll talk to him."Kenny glared at Evan and told Caroline, "Please, don't be lenient with him again this time."
