'Evan is here!'

Caroline froze as she caught sight of Evan approaching, accompanied by Daniella. She had anticipated his presence, but not this early.

Daniella wore a delicate gown and had applied light makeup, making them look like a picture-perfect couple. Meanwhile, Evan retained his cold, handsome demeanor, his natural reserve accentuated.

Neil seemed to sense Caroline's unease and offered her reassurance. "Don't worry. He usually leaves after presenting his gift." Caroline felt a wave of relief wash over her upon hearing those words.

As Evan entered the room, his gaze fell upon Caroline, who was seated next to Neil. His icy eyes narrowed, and his handsome face grew stiff. Daniella noticed his focus and a flicker of jealousy flashed in her eyes. She handed Evan a drink from the table, attempting to distract him with her gentle voice. "Juice, Evan?"

However, he completely ignored her, not even sparing her a glance.

Daniella clenched her teeth in frustration. Why wouldn't Car

    After the guests had presented their gifts, Grayson Xander instructed someone to fetch Neil and bring him to the study. Not wanting to leave Caroline behind, Neil insisted on her accompanying him. As they entered the study, the old man's expression appeared troubled, reflecting the turmoil within him."Why have you brought this mistress here?" His tone was laced with fierce disapproval.Neil frowned. "Take a closer look at Caroline, Grandpa. Don’t you think she looks a lot like mom?"Grayson scoffed dismissively. "Many people in this world bear resemblances to others. And if you insist, Evan's fiancée also has eyes similar to your mother's. Furthermore, she has a red cinnabar mole on her earlobe!""But Caroline has the same mole too! Grandpa, please don't let her status cloud your judgment!" Neil's voice grew harsh and forceful, catching Caroline off guard as she turned her head to face him. It was the first time she had heard him speak in such a manner.Enraged, the old man pou

    As they arrived at Redwood Neighborhood, Neil took the opportunity to express his viewpoint to Caroline before she exited the car. "Caroline, I still stand by what I said."Caroline was taken aback for a moment, but then she smiled and replied, "Fine. Just don't forget about what you promised me."Once she stepped out of the car, Caroline made her way into the neighborhood. As she descended the stairs near her house, she spotted Evan standing before the building. Confusion washed over her. 'Didn't Neil's grandfather ask him to stay back for a chat about the past? Why is he here?'Trying to avoid eye contact, Caroline instinctively thought about turning back. However, she couldn't escape his cold, deep voice."Caroline!" Caroline tightly clenched her fists and took a deep breath. 'Forget it. There's always a solution to a problem.'Summoning her courage, Caroline approached Evan. She looked up and asked with a distant tone, "Evan, you're such a busy guy, yet you've come here to w

    Hearing the scream, Lily hurried downstairs, her footsteps quickening as she spotted Daniella's return. Without hesitation, she approached her and spoke, "Ms. Love."However, Daniella fixed Lily with a fierce glare. "You need to change the way you address me."Lily's fear was palpable as she stammered, "Ma... Madam."Daniella averted her gaze and demanded, "Where's my supper?""I'll cook it now," Lily replied, her voice filled with urgency."Be more sensible! I need a nutritious meal, especially since I'm pregnant," Daniella snapped.With anger still lingering, Daniella angrily sank into the sofa and questioned, "Where's Evan?""He's not home yet," Lily responded.Clatter!Daniella raised her hand and pushed away the fruits on the tea table. "Call him and inform him that I'm feeling sick. Ask him to come home now."Shuddering, Lily retrieved her phone and nodded, "Okay…"*Evan was in the midst of arranging for Reuben to deliver food to Caroline when he caught sight of Scot

[Yeah, I miss you.][I can't come back just yet. Tell me. What do you want me to do now?]Daniella remained patient and replied, [Nothing. Rest well. I'll be waiting for you to return.][I'm sure you'll feel very excited if I have sex with you in another face.]Daniella bit her lower lips hard. [You naughty boy!]*The following day, Caroline woke up to find an email on her phone. Curious, she opened it and discovered it was sent by someone named G. The email proposed an opportunity for Caroline to pursue further studies in Ylesir after achieving a position in the design competition.

    After leaving Xander Residence, Daniella was consumed with thoughts on how to obtain Caroline's hair, but her focus was interrupted by a text message from Nic.[I don't have enough money. Transfer more funds to my account.]Daniella clenched her phone, frustration evident in her reply. [I just gave you 14,000 dollars last month.][I spent a fortune on plastic surgery! You're with Evan now. How dare you claim to be broke!]Daniella's eyes turned red as she seethed with anger.[I never asked Evan for a single penny.][I don't care. You have access to his office, don't you? Just steal a valuable secret and sell it for a hefty sum!][Are you out of your mind? If Evan finds out, it'll be the end of me.][What are you so afraid of? Find a way to frame Caroline for it. You despise her, don't you? You must give me 70,000 dollars within two weeks.

When you come to work on Monday, I'll teach you how to do it.]The young secretary received the money and glanced at the maternal and child store with a gloomy expression. She didn't fully understand Daniella's intentions, but she had no choice in this matter. She had to wrong Caroline for the sake of her grandmother's medical expenses.*Caroline did not lay idle for two days. She focused on refining her design and improving her concept. She also went house-hunting with Paige.They discussed the details extensively, as Caroline still needed a place to settle down after coming back from her studies.Considering she would have three children, she needed to plan the space accordingly. The house couldn't be too small, but it also couldn't be too costly.Sitting in the passenger seat, Caroline grew worried as she looked at the rows of residential buildings ahead."Carol, I just

    Caroline observed silently as Daniella put on her act, her gaze fixated on Evan as he approached. "Can I go up now, or do I need the madam of the house's permission?" she asked bitterly, causing a frown to appear on his face."Can't you speak properly?" he questioned, a single sentence that instantly drained the color from Daniella's face. How could she not understand what he meant? Who was Caroline to treat him rudely? And why was she even here?Caroline sensed the drastic change in Daniella's expression and couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. With a cold and composed demeanor, she said, "Of course I can. I'll go up and pack now." And with that, she headed toward the stairs.However, after taking just two steps, she suddenly stumbled and fell.

    After lying down for a while, Caroline heard a knock on the door some ten minutes later. It was Lily, carrying a tray of food with a bright smile on her face. "You're finally home, Ms. Shenton."Caroline sat up and offered a flat smile. "I'm just back to get some stuff, Lily."Lily sighed as she placed the food on the bedside table. "It would be great if you stayed."Caroline fell silent for a moment. "Is Daniella giving you a hard time?"Lily forced a smile and remained silent, handing her the cooled-down soup."I can see that you've lost more weight. You should stay here for a while and let me nurse you back to health," Lily suggested.Caroline took a sip of the soup and licking her lips before asking. "Tell me the truth, Lily. Has Daniella been causing trouble for you?""It's unavoidable." Lily sighed. "I often wish you'd come back."Caroline drank another sip of soup and licked her lips. "I can't come back, Lily. But I believe I can chase Daniella out. You must help me with

    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
