Chapter 30
Trapped in Love
Chapter 29 Heâs Outrageous and Cruel
Daniella was left stunned. It didnât take long for her to realize who else, apart from Caroline, could elicit
such a hurried and furious reaction from Evan.
Why did Evan hold Caroline in such high regard? She was just a shameless mistress.
With a gloomy expression, Daniella decided since Caroline wouldnât let her man go, she could not be
blamed for taking matters into her own hands and acting ruthlessly..
After sharing her location with Evan, Caroline composedly placed her phone in her pocket. Jumping out
of the car would be too dangerous. She needed to think rationally.
Caroline closed her eyes and leaned against the car door, contemplating how to confront the situation
ahead.
Ten minutes later, the car came to a halt.
She lifted her gaze and saw a dilapidated warehouse in front of her.
âStep out of the car!â
Abruptly, the car door swung open, and a man seized her arm
Feigning fear, Caroline looked at the unfamiliar man before her. âWho are you? Why have you brought
me here?â
The man sneered. âYou better ask yourself who youâve crossed.â
To safeguard the child in her womb, she quickly offered, âI can walk on my own. Iâll get out of the
car.â
The man warned her, his gaze fierce. âDonât try anything foolish.â
She nodded hastily, walking into the dimly lit warehouse under his intimidating glare.
As she entered, she recognized three familiar secretaries, seated like loyal subjects, surrounding a
man at the center. Her suspicions were confirmed.
It appeared that Mark was looking to seek revenge on behalf of his cherished secretaries.
As Caroline approached Mark, she quickly devised a plan. Being alone, she knew that fighting
against them directly would be difficult. Her objective was to buy time until Evan arrived to save her
Manipulating Markâs weakness for beauty and seeking pity would be her strategy.
âMr. Jordanâ¦â

Her voice quivered with gentleness and weakness, accompanied by feigned sobs that would tug at
anyoneâs heartstrings.
Upon seeing her face, Mark was taken aback. However, his pride and dignity took precedence, and he
scolded sternly, âDonât address me! You should know why I brought you here, donât you?â
Lowering her gaze, Caroline continued to sob. âMr. Jordan, itâs unfair of you to do this simply because I
fired them today.â
âUnfair?â Markâs eyes widened. âWerenât you quite arrogant when you fired them?â
Caroline blinked and struggled to produce tears. âI had no other choice. If I didnât obey Evan Jordan, I
would have been fired too.â
She looked up at Mark, her expression pleading. âMark, can you save me?â
Mark found himself captivated by her act. Unable to resist, he asked, âDo you want me to save you?
Caroline nodded. âMark, you are an affectionate and loyal man. I saw that when you came here with
these secretaries. If I work for you, you wouldnât scold or humiliate me, let alone lock me up.â
Mark was slightly taken aback by Carolineâs words. âDid Uncle Evan lock you up?â
Caroline raised her hand to wipe away her tears. âYes, heâs outrageous and cruel!â
âDonât be deceived by her, Mark. You donât know how resolute and decisive she was today. We
witnessed it!â
âThatâs right, Mark. Sheâs just acting pitiful in front of you.â
âMark, please seek justice for usâ¦â
Caroline felt a chill down her spine upon hearing the coquettish remarks from the three
secretaries. She braced herself and continued in a coquettish tone, âMark, I beg you, please let me
go with you. If I stay with Evan, Iâll die. Mark, if you can help me, Iâll owe you my life.â
Mark wasnât foolish. He didnât fully believe her words. Gazing at Caroline, he inquired, âHow can you
prove to me that you hate Uncle Evan?â
Caroline looked up at him, her watery and seductive eyes casting their spell. Slowly, she squatted
and gazed up at him. âMark, I can lurk by his side and poison him if youâre willing to save me.â?
After a moment of silence, Mark burst into laughter. âOkay, excellent! Iâm sure Uncle Evan doesnât
expect that his mistress of three years despises him so much that she wants to poison him to
death!â
Bang!

A dull thud interrupted their conversation. They turned their heads to see Markâs subordinates
who had been knocked down on the floor.
Immediately, several bodyguards rushed into the warehouse, and a man in a black windbreaker
emerged as if descending from the heavens.
