Caroline felt a shiver down her spine at the revelation.She wondered, 'What have I done to Elvira that she would resort to such a malicious way?'Caroline contemplated the possibility of Elvira finishing her off with a gunshot.Unable to shake the association with Scott, Caroline speculated, 'So he keeps Elvira close to me to poison me easily, right?"The marriage alliance with the Millers is just a facade! He's using Azure to obtain the drug, then tasks Elvira to poison me with it. If someone finds out or if I commit suicide, he can disavow any responsibility, claiming ignorance."This way, Elvira and Azure will be dealt with. The Millers might even feel guilty for affecting Scott's career after Azure commits such a heinous crime.'Goosebumps covered Caroline. 'He is ruthless in delivering this move!'"Caroline?" Zeke's voice jolted her back to reality.Her face was ghastly pale as she looked at him and asked, "What's going on, Mr. Zeke?"Zeke's gaze held a tinge of helpless
Caroline did not expect that Zeke would actually want to help her. Caroline thought, 'Will Zeke be able to help us out of our predicament when he has no influence in Angelbay?'Caroline decided to explain the whole situation after considering the situation. After all, he was definitely as capable as Evan, given his current position. "My two sons have exceptional computer skills," Caroline explained. "Scott probably refuses to free them out of fear that they might contact someone and break free from him, taking me with them."Zeke pondered briefly before he said, "I'm just going to put this bluntly. Given the current situation, where else can you go?"Caroline nodded. "Yes. I don't understand what his goal is."Zeke said, "I heard from external sources that he has already taken control of MK."Caroline said, "Perhaps his next step is the chairman position. The entire MK will truly be at his disposal if he can secure it."Zeke lowered his gaze, and Caroline glanced at him, unsu
Caroline sneered. "Heh! You're coming to visit the cemetery with me instead of spending time with your fiance?"Scott replied nonchalantly, "She went abroad for a few days to attend to some matters."Caroline mocked, "So you're here?"Scott didn't answer directly but calmly suggested, "Let's go. I'm coming with you."Caroline stared at him coldly. "Do you think you deserve to be there? You caused their deaths, yet you have the audacity to face them?" Scott appeared calm and unfazed. "I just helped them end their suffering in advance."Caroline couldn't help shouting at Scott, "What gives you the right to make such a decision? Those are human lives! They are my family members!"Scott remained calm as before. "You want to keep them alive so you won't regret it later. It's not a bad thing to let them leave when they spend their days suffering.""All this talk is just a way for you to absolve yourself of the crimes of murder!" Caroline barked.Scott replied, "I'm just looking at
Caroline's chest tightened with anxiety, and she hastily ran to the figure. However, the figure had disappeared from the tombstone when she arrived. She looked around anxiously, thinking, 'I saw it clearly. How could he disappear as soon as I ran over? I'm certain that I haven't seen it wrongly. It was Neil! Yet, where did he go?'Caroline was about to shout when she turned and saw Elvira walking over. The word 'Neil' was stuck in her throat. She kept her lips tightly pursed and stared at Elvira. Elvira scrutinized her. "Why are you looking at me like that?"Caroline gradually lost her temper. "Why did you follow me?"Elvira frowned. "I've been following you like this all this time. What's the problem?""Please leave! Stay away from me!" Caroline said in agitation. Caroline thought, 'Neil wouldn't have left if Elvira wasn't here! He must be worried that Elvira will tell Scott about him being alive! He must be worried about being found! This must be it!'Elvira said, "H
Elvira asked, "Is it a bottle with a dropper, right?"Azure confirmed, "Yes, it's a small bottle with a dropper. The person instructed me to use two milliliters each time."Elvira cautioned, "Exactly, Mrs. Wilson. Stick to two milliliters. Going over the recommended amount could lead to the drug taking effect too quickly, raising suspicion."Azure acknowledged, "Got it. I'll hand the drug to you, and you can take over the task with Caroline.""Of course, Mrs. Wilson," Elvira replied.She ended the call shortly after.The bodyguard beside Azure suggested, "Miss, why not tell her how much you spent purchasing another bottle?"Azure glanced at the bodyguard. "A few tens of thousands is not a fortune. It's good to have this accessible when needed."The bodyguard nodded. "I'll book the flight for you to go home now, then.""Alright."-Meanwhile, Tyler and Axel promptly informed Caroline about the situation after eavesdropping on Elvira and Azure's conversation.Caroline was ter
Caroline put down her phone and began to plan after she replied: [Goodnight.]Caroline thought, 'It won't work if I just go to Marie. Elvira is so vigilant, so she will surely come and eavesdrop. If I have to go to Marie, I have to do it without Elvira's knowledge.'Caroline came up with a solution at last. She grabbed her phone and sent Yuliana a text message. Caroline: [Yuliana, can you bring me some sleeping pills?]Yuliana replied swiftly. Yuliana: [Are you trying to kill yourself again?]Caroline: [No, I need it to do something.]Yuliana: [It's fine as long as you don't kill yourself. I'll leave it for you at the same corner as last time tonight.]Caroline thought about it before she responded.Caroline: [Yuliana, I feel like I saw Neil when I visited the cemetery a few days ago.]Yuliana took a long time to reply, as if she were shocked. Yuliana: [A few days ago? Were you seeing things wrong? Did you see his face?]Caroline: [I saw a figure. I don't know who else
Marie's eyes twitched twice, and she asked with feigned innocence, "What do you want to talk to me about, Ms. Shenton? I'm just a caregiver, doing what I'm supposed to. I don't know about anything else."Caroline grabbed a chair and calmly sat down. "You should know that there are certain things considered illegal activities. From what I know, your daughter-in-law never liked you from the beginning. Do you think you'll still have a chance to see your grandson if you end up in prison?"Marie looked at Caroline in shock. "How do you even know about this?!""Don't worry about how I know. I just want you to tell me what Elvira has ordered you to do," Caroline remarked.Marie hesitated, keeping her lips pursed and reluctant to speak."If it's difficult for you to speak about it, let's make a deal," Caroline said patiently.Marie looked at Caroline in puzzlement.Caroline pulled out a check from her pocket and placed it on the table. "There's 70,000 dollars on it. Consider it a reward
Caroline thought, 'However, I can't let my guard down yet. Who knows if Marie is going to turn against me and tell Scott about this? After all, he hired her. It's all a bet… I'm betting on humanity's greed.'-The following morning, Elvira groggily rose from her slumber. She supported her throbbing head and descended the stairs. Upon seeing Caroline was eating breakfast in the dining room, a sense of unease washed over her.Elvira pondered, 'I've always been in good health, so it's impossible for me to sleep an entire day without a hint of sound. Caroline must have done something to me!'Fuelled by anger, Elvira approached Caroline.Just as she was about to speak, Marie emerged from the kitchen."Elvira? Why are you up? I was about to bring food upstairs for you," Marie asked with concern.Elvira, puzzled, observed Marie's actions.Marie set the tray down and gently touched Elvira's forehead. Subsequently, she withdrew her hand and remarked with a smile, "Your fever has subside
