Alex was left speechless. He responded, "By the way, you've been looking into Caroline's background lately. Do you suspect that she was the one who saved you?""Mhmm." Evan was straightforward with Alex."I don't believe in so many coincidences. On the other hand, Daniella doesn't seem familiar to me.""What did Caroline say?" Alex continued to inquire."She told me she doesn't remember what happened that year."Alex fell into deep thought. "Could there have been some kind of accident in between?"At the mention of that, Evan fell silent for a moment."Reuben discovered that Caroline was hospitalized for a period of time during her childhood."Suddenly, something clicked in Alex's mind."That could very well be the reason for her memory loss," Alex suggested. "I think it would be wise to have someone investigate her hospitalization in detail."Evan narrowed his eyes and after a while, he took out his phone and sent a text to Reuben.[Look into the reason for Caroline's hospi
Caroline nodded. "I did let out my anger after you left the other day."Paige grabbed Caroline in agitation and shook her. "Next time, let me join in if there's a chance like that!"Caroline was greatly shocked by Paige's enthusiasm. 'What's so interesting about that?'In the president's office at MK Corporation,Reuben knocked on the door before entering Evan's office with some information in hand.Approaching Evan's desk, he placed the gathered information on it. "Mr. Jordan, this is the information regarding Ms. Shenton's hospitalization."Evan took the documents and opened them, glancing through the contents.When he saw the test report, his brows furrowed deeply."Memory loss due to a high fever?"Reuben confirmed, "Yes. It's stated that Ms. Shenton was hospitalized for half a month after a severe fever, and she experienced memory loss once it subsided. Mr. Jordan, there's another page."Evan turned to the second page. As he read about the recorded incident, his expressi
Daniella suddenly clenched her fists tightly under the table. "Even though I'm on maternity leave, I still keep track of the company's inside information. I didn't tell you about the incident earlier because I didn't want to trouble you further."Evan tapped his knee agitatedly and said, "Don't make up an excuse to see Caroline next time.""Why are you defending her, Evan? Is there something I don't do well enough?" Daniella sobbed, her makeup running down her face.Changing the subject, Evan said, "You shall rest at Xander Residence during your pregnancy."Unable to control herself, Daniella questioned, "Are you not planning to let me come home, Evan? This is our baby."Evan's handsome face turned cold with her persistent inquiries. "I will call off the engagement and raise the child myself if you continue like this."He stood up and walked away, leaving Daniella in tears.'It's all Caroline's fault! She must die!' she roared inwardly.*With teary eyes, Daniella returned to
Caroline resisted with all her strength and shouted, "Let go of me!"The man slapped Caroline, causing her ear to hum, and she almost lost her footing from the impact.Seizing the opportunity, he dragged her into the car and ordered the driver coldly, "Drive."Caroline didn't dare to act rashly, knowing she couldn't fight this man. If he were to harm her, her children's lives would be at stake.She glared at the man, cautiously reaching for her phone in her pocket to call Reuben. Unfortunately, the man snatched her phone before she could make a call and tossed it out of the window, leaving her shocked and helpless.Caroline tried not to think about what would happen next as fear filled her. She gazed at the passing scenery through the window, her mind racing. She couldn't escape, or she might suffer a miscarriage.Trying to remain calm, she sought a way to handle the situation.*Two hours later, the car stopped in front of a house surrounded by a pitch-black forest.The man
Lily asked Evan with concern, "She went out at six. Did something happen?"Evan's expression turned cold. "Noted."After hanging up, Evan called Paige.Paige answered the phone quickly. "Is Carol home, Mr. Jordan?"Evan asked sternly, "Did you ask her out to dinner?"Paige panicked. "I did, but I've been waiting in the restaurant all this time. Her phone is turned off!"Evan stood up abruptly, his eyes filled with coldness. "I'm hanging up now!"He immediately called Reuben and ordered, "Caroline is missing. Send someone to look for her."As he spoke, he walked out of the office swiftly.*Paige panicked in the restaurant. "What should we do? Carol isn't in Villa Rosa!"Scott stood up quickly. "Let's go to Redwood Neighborhood. Maybe she's home and forgot to charge her phone. Calm down first. It might just be her forgetfulness combined with her sleepiness from the pregnancy."Paige nodded and followed Scott to Redwood Neighborhood.The neighbor across the street opened the
Evan kept quiet for a long while. "Okay."After hanging up, Evan immediately ordered Reuben, "Continue to track Daniella's whereabouts!"Reuben nodded. "Yes, sir."Evan grabbed his coat and walked out of the villa. He got into the car and drove to Jordan Residence swiftly.When he arrived at his family home, he found Draco having breakfast.Sensing Evan's hostile presence, Draco placed down his cutlery in displeasure. "What brings you here so early?""Did you take Caroline?" Evan asked coldly."This is preposterous!" Draco stood up abruptly and roared, "Check the time! How dare you come here to question me at half past six in the morning? Do you have any respect for your father? Where are your manners!"Evan's gaze was solemn as he spoke through his gritted teeth. "It would be best if you didn't. Or else, don't blame me for targeting your two good sons!"Draco was so furious that he smashed the plate on the floor. "You will be ruined by the manipulative woman sooner or later!"
Caroline lay on the floor, her red, swollen hands shaking. She stared at the crack in the door from day to night and then to day again.The claustrophobic house and the fear of death crushed her spirit constantly. She hadn't ended her life because of the three lives growing inside her womb.She closed her eyes, and Evan's figure appeared in her mind. Over the past few days, she had thought about many things and suspected the Xanders or the Jordans were probably behind her predicament.Both families had vast connections and great influence, making it impossible for her weak self to stand up against them.Alone and pregnant, she worried about what would happen to her children when they were born. They were innocent, and she still had yet to avenge her mother.Curling up her body, Caroline decided to place a bet for her children's future survival. She wanted to believe that Evan would keep and protect them.*At Villa Rosa.Evan sat on the sofa with a gloomy expression. The stubbl
Daniella rushed to the desk and asked in tears, "Grandpa, did you take Caroline? I know you did it for me, but if you really did take Caroline, will you release her, please?"Grayson's expression turned somber. "Ella, have you forgotten how overbearing she was to you? Don't you want Evan and the marriage anymore?"Daniella shook her head, crying. "Evan wanted to choke me to death when I was at Villa Rosa earlier, Grandpa. We can't rush love, and I believe that I can still get back Evan!"But if something bad happens to Caroline, my relationship with him will be over. He's going to make me get an abortion!""Did he really say that?" Grayson's gaze turned grave. "I'm going to go hostile on him if that's the case!"Daniella was shocked. Did Grayson really abduct Caroline? She didn't want to have a falling out with Evan! She loved Evan and could deal with Caroline anytime, but not now!Daniella wept. "I'm begging you, Grandpa! Your action must have intimidated her enough to stop figh
