âNo, weâre here to celebrate the kids getting into elementary school,â Caroline clarified
âTyler and Liora skipped a grade, too?â Alex asked, bewildered. âSo did Axelâ
Paige rolled her eyes. âI donât think itâs about you.â
Alex countered, âOf course it is. It means Caroline and Evan have strong genes. Thatâs why their
kids are so smart. I need to learn from them for our kids to excel, too.â
Paige blushed. âYouâre shameless.â
âYes,â Alex agreed. âIâm planning for our future.â
Then, he turned to Neil. âDonât you think so, Neil?â
Neil suffered in silence while meeting Alexâs gaze. Tyler and Liora are my kids.â
Kenny widened his eyes slowly upon hearing Neilâs statement. âHave I missed some gossip? G
pretends with Neil in front of Evan!â
Sensing Kennyâs expression, Alex became suspicious. He wondered if Kenny was unaware of it.
But that couldnât beâ¦
Kenny was Carolineâs work partner and friend. Surely, he should know about the relationship
between the children and Neil
Alex then looked at Kenny. âYou canât handle your drinks, Kenny. Just stop. Havenât you learned
from your past experiences?â
Kenny abruptly stared at Alex. âWhat did you say?
Alex innocently repeated, âI said you canât handle your drinks.â
âDamn!â Kenny got competitive. âYouâre saying I canât drink? Letâs have a oneâonâone to see whoâs
stronger.â
An idea crossed Alexâs mind. He had to gauge Kennyâs intentions tonight. âOkay, I wonât back down!â
Kenny angrily ordered some wine to challenge Alex.
Caroline immediately glanced at Neil when his argument with Evan was interrupted. âGo look after the
kids.â
Neil didnât want to argue with Evan on this special day. He simply stood up to go play with the children.

Paige then handed a glass of wine to Caroline. âCarol, letâs have a drink.â
Caroline was about to accept it when Scott reminded her, âNo, you canât. Youâve just left the hospital.
You need to take care of your injuries.â
Caroline blushed as she regained her senses. âOh, right, I forgot.â
Scott then offered Caroline a glass of juice. âHave this. The vitamins will help you recover faster.â
âAlright, thanks,â Caroline accepted it.
Evanâs expression darkened when he noticed how tenderly Caroline spoke to Scott. He wondered
why she was so harsh with him but acted differently with Scott. 1
At the same time, Paige was puzzled by his expression
Hadnât he noticed that Caroline seemed to be close to Scott? Did jealousy make men
livious?
Half an hour later, Evanâs phone suddenly rang
Seeing the unfamiliar number, he stepped outside to take the call.
A hateful voice came through when he answered. âItâs me, Casey.â
âWhat do you want?â Evanâs face grew cold.
Casey chuckled and explained, âI wanted to let you know that Iâm taking Ms. Shenton out for
dinner tomorrow.â
âCasey Jordan!â Evan gritted his teeth. âDonât you dare get near Caroline!â
Evanâs reaction only amused Casey further. âAre you nervous or scared? Worried I might make a
move on her?â
Evan exploded in anger. âCasey, Iâm going to have someone teach you a lesson tomorrow.â
