Evan’s anger flared as he heard the pity in Axel’s remark. He wondered, ‘What could Caroline have

done to entice Axel to the point where he’d fight for her?”

As he pondered, his phone suddenly rang. An email from an unknown sender popped up. He

opened it and discovered a photo of Casey and Caroline with big smiles, suggesting a close bond.

Seeing this picture enraged Evan. He couldn’t understand why Caroline would be spending time with

Casey. Had she not seen the news? Was she under Casey’s influence? Why would she

associate with such a contemptible man?

Evan recalled Casey’s disturbing confession: He wanted to touch Caroline and subject her to the same

torment he inflicted on Jamie. Casey wanted Caroline on her knees and be his sex slave!

Evan’s expression darkened as he ignored the remaining photos and immediately called Caroline.

Before she could speak, he asked, “Why are you spending time with Casey?”

Caroline was taken aback, wondering, “Why is he suddenly questioning me out of the blue?”

Frustration simmered in Caroline as she replied, “Evan, why is my time with him any of your

business?”

Evan insisted, “You know what kind of person Casey is!”

Caroline retorted, “You’re quite nosy, aren’t you? I have my own opinion about him; I don’t need

your input!”

Evan snapped, “Do you really need a man that badly?”

Caroline replied, “Yes, I do. Are you satisfied with that answer?”

Evan pressed, “You can spend time with anyone except Casey!”

Caroline defiantly shot back, “Why should I follow your instructions? I have the freedom to choose who

I spend time with!”

With a hint of desperation in his voice, Evan implored, “Think rationally, Caroline! Casey is unstable.

He’ll bring you harm!”

Caroline chuckled. “To me, you’re both nearly the same. I’ll hang up if there’s nothing else.”

She ended the call promptly.

Arguing with Evan on this topic seemed pointless and a waste of her time and energy.

Caroline was well aware of Casey’s personality but was not easily swayed once she made a

decision.

After regaining her composure, Caroline left the restroom.

Waiting at the door with concern, Scott asked, “I overheard your phone conversation. Is he causing

trouble again?”

Caroline smiled. “Nothing I can’t handle.”

Since she was reluctant to discuss it further, Scott didn’t press. “Let’s go. I’m taking you out for a

meal.”

Caroline nodded,

Later in the afternoon, Paige took the children out. As she stepped out of the villa, she noticed

Alex’s car pulling into the yard

Annoyed, she told the children, “I have to deal with something. Both of you, go back inside and

wait for me.”

Liora tilted her head, puzzled. “Are you going to fight, Godmother?”

Tyler caught on, saying, “We can pass you a knife if you need it.”

Paige widened her eyes in surprise. “That’s too extreme! I don’t want to end up in prison because

of this guy!”

She released the children’s hands, ushered them back into the villa, and closed the door.

The two children rushed to the window to watch the drama unfold, their curiosity piqued.
