Chapter 156 You Investigated Me

Caroline swiftly broke free from Evan’s grip and cautiously stared at him. “Please control yourself, Mr.

Jordan!”

Evan smiled faintly upon hearing the familiar remark

Did she realize she gave herself away when she blurted out “Mr. Jordan” like that? he wondered.

Evan didn’t create problems for Caroline but sat up straight and directed Reuben, “To Bayview Villa.”

Caroline’s anger flared as she looked at him. “Did you investigate me?”

“Yes,” Evan truthfully replied.

“You never learn to respect others! Caroline scolded.

“I don’t need to,” Evan said through his gritted teeth, radiating a cold aura. I’ve been searching for

you for five years!”

“You didn’t have to find me!” Caroline countered.

“Caroline, don’t be ungrateful” Evan suppressed his anger.

“Did 1 ask you to find me?” Caroline’s cold gaze bore into him. I wouldn’t have hit such a low point

in my life if it weren’t for you!”

“Did I plot your imprisonment?‘ Evan inquired.

“You believed Daniella without giving me a chance to explain!” Caroline’s rage caused her body to

tremble. “If you had shown me even a bit of trust and listened, I wouldn’t be in this mess!”

Evan felt a tightening in his chest–he knew he was at fault. If only he had met the director

earlier, he wouldn’t have fallen for Daniella’s scheme.

He had wronged Caroline in numerous ways.

Evan’s anger subsided, and his gaze softened. Tm sorry.”

Caroline sneered. “Can I offer you an apology after I’ve killed you?*

Evan replied, “I’ll make it right.”

“You don’t have to!” Caroline rejected him. “I will be grateful if you can stop bothering me!”

Evan’s chest wrenched in pain when he heard Caroline’s merciless remark.

He said, “Don’t you want to seek revenge on her?”

“It’s none of your business!”

Reuben heaved a sigh, thinking. Mr. Jordan is going all out to get back Ms. Shenton, huh?”

Ten minutes later, Caroline stepped out of the car at Bayview Villa with Evan following her.

Hearing the car, the three children dashed toward the villa’s entrance.

At the sight of Caroline, Liora burst into tears and hurried over “Mommy!”

Caroline lifted Liora, who was trembling from crying. I’m sorry I made you worry, Lia ”

Tyler, his eyes red from tears, approached Caroline. “Did they give you a hard time. Mommy?”

Caroline shook her head. “No, they just had coffee with me.

Tyler nestled against Caroline, thinking, “You’re not telling the truth…‘

He had used surveillance equipment to listen to the police questioning. This helped him know.

that she had been interrogated for an hour.

By the door, Axel clenched his fists with a pained expression. He wanted to go to his mother, but

his father was present.

He had promised not to expose Caroline.

Scott and Lily emerged from the house, spotting Evan immediately.

Lily’s gaze fell, quilt in her eyes, but Scott approached Evan. “Mr. Jordan, thank you for bringing

Carol back.”

“Carol?” Evan scoffed. “Are you two dating?”

Scott replied calmly, “Soon.”

“Then why the intimate nickname?” Evan smirked, glancing at Axel. “Axel, care to enlighten me?”

Before Axel could reply, Caroline stood tall and asserted, “He’s just a child! Please talk to him kindly,

like a father should. Also, I brought Axel here for a playdate. Let’s not make things hard for the child.”
