Chapter 386 Spend All Her Money
Alex stuffed the photo into the folder and weakly said, âIâm sorry. I wonât intervene anymore.â
He had no choice but to empathize with Evanâs situation. If he were in Evanâs shoes, he would probably
suspect Caroline too. Trying to imagine how Evan felt when he saw the tragic state of his motherâs
death was nearly impossible.
No one could think clearly when faced with such a tragic loss, especially the loss of a mother.
Evan closed the drawer and locked it. Then, he stood up, glanced at his watch, and asked, âIs there
anything else?â
Alex asked, âWould you like to join me for dinner?â
âI have a business gathering. Youâre free to go.â Evan replied as he picked up his jacket.
Alex nodded. âAlright, then.â
At 5:30 p.m., Caroline arrived at Regal Restaurant and called Paige from the car.
Paige said dully, âCarol.â
Caroline could hear the difference in Paigeâs tone and asked concerningly, âWhatâs going on?â
Paige said quiltily, âCarol, I donât know how to tell you this. I found out that the factory belongs to
MK.â
Caroline was relieved because she thought something bad had happened to Paige. âDonât worry. I can
lease another factory using his penalty fee for a month.â
âReally?â Paige asked anxiously.
âYes. Donât worry about me. Where are the children? Are they with you?â Caroline asked with at
smile.
Paige said, âThey just got home from school. Would you like to speak to them?â
Caroline checked the time and said, âYes, please.â
Paige called out from the stairway, âLia, Ty, Mommyâs calling!â
Soon, she heard the sound of the children going down the stairs quickly.
âMommy! I miss you so much!â Liora said.
Tyler said, âI miss you too, Mommy.â

Caroline felt the urge to cry. âI miss you very much too, my darlings.â
She had never been away from the children for such a long time and missed them so much she could
not sleep.
Liora cried. âWhen will you be home, Mommy?â
Caroline said, âDonât cry, dear. Iâll be home in a week.â
Î
Tyler said, âDonât worry about us, Mommy. Take care of yourself and eat on time.â
Caroline said, âI know. Have you been good at obeying Godmother these days?â
âYes, Mommy,â said the two children in unison.
Caroline said, âGodmother is not good at cooking. If you want to eat something, get her to bring you out
to eat. Iâll pay her.â
âDonât worry about the money!â Paige called out.
Caroline laughed while Tyler said, âDonât worry, Mommy Lia and I will do our best to spend all her
money before youâre home.â
âHey! Iâve put up with you long enough, you brat!â Paige shouted.
Liora chimed in. âDonât do that. Godmother is still unmarried. She will spend the rest of her life)
alone if she has no money to get herself a husband.
Caroline didnât know whether to cry or laugh. She wondered where Liora learned to utter such
things.
However, she felt relieved to hear the children joking.
Caroline hung up after a brief conversation with the children. She exited the car and ordered the
bodyguard to bring the prepared liquor before they walked to the restaurant.
Caroline took the liquor at the entrance of the private room. âDonât wait here. Go and eat
something.â
The bodyguard glanced at the private room, and Caroline said, âDonât worry. I can handle this.
There are waiting staff, too.â
The bodyguard left whe Caroline took a deep breath and walked into the private room.
