Daniella returned to her car and glanced at the school entrance surveillance camera. Soon, she

smirked and reached for her makeup to freshen up.

Leaving a video of herself pleading to see Axel at the school had been a tough ordeal.

After refreshing her makeup, Daniella drove to the hospital where Casey was being treated.

At MK.

Alex had an early morning stakeout in the car park. He spotted Paige’s car slowly entering the lot

around 8.30 a.m. Moving swiftly, he opened her car door and jumped inside.

Alex’s sudden appearance took Paige aback. Her heart raced as she scolded him, “What’s wrong. with

you?”

Alex hastily pulled a box from his pocket. “I’m here to apologize, Paige.” He opened the box,

revealing a diamond bracelet.

Paige replied in a high–pitched voice, “Do you think this changes things? You still don’t

understand me. Alex!” 1

Alex spoke sternly. “Paige, please let me finish before getting angry. My mother isn’t easygoing. I

haven’t introduced you to her because I wanted to protect you. I can’t stay away from you, and I

don’t want my mother to force you away from me.” ”

Paige sneered. “You still don’t get what I want.”

Alex countered, “I do! I deliberately said those things on the date to disgust her-

.

Paige interrupted, “I don’t want to waste my time deciphering what my boyfriend says to other

women!”

Alex wanted to explain further, but Paige wouldn’t allow it. This conversation is over. I don’t think

there’s anything left to say between us. Get out of the car; I need to go to work.”

Slightly infuriated, Alex questioned, “Do you have to be so stubborn?”

Paige unfastened her seatbelt. “You can stay in the car if you want. Goodbye!”

Alex felt helpless as he watched Paige exit the car, realizing she wouldn’t forgive him. He placed.

the bracelet in her car and got out in dejection, heading inside to meet Evan.

As Alex was about to enter the elevator, Evan walked out.

Alex was stunned. “Are you heading out?”

Evan glanced at Alex and replied, “I’m not as free as you.”

Alex bitterly implored. “Take me with you. I don’t want to be alone.”

Evan considered for a moment. I’m going to a construction site. Are you interested?”

Alex recalled something. “Oh, the resort project you collaborated on with my family six months

ago?”

Evan nodded. ‘That’s the one. Let’s go, but you owe me lunch.”

As they got into the car, Alex asked sadly, “Tell me, how do you make a woman forgive you?”

Evan picked up a folder prepared by Reuben, about to respond, when Alex added, “I probably

shouldn’t ask you, considering you haven’t even earned Caroline s forgiveness.”

Evan’s gaze turned cold. “Get out of the car.”

Forced to put on a fake smile, Alex said, ‘Don’t be so cold toward me.”
