Chapter 457 Don’t Want to See You Again

Kenny hesitated to leave. “What if those bullies bother you?”

Caroline glanced at him. “They won’t. We’re in the cemetery. Neil, Scott, please escort the funeral.

celebrant.”

The group noticed Caroline’s determination and chose a different path without commenting

further.

Once they departed, Evan approached the tombstone Caroline’s icy glare met him, and she

slapped him without a word.

Reuben’s eyes widened in shock at the crisp slap. “Ms. Shenton!”

Caroline suppressed her anger. “How dare you come here!”

Evan turned solemnly, matching Caroline’s intense anger with his own cold stare. “Do you realize

what you’re doing?”

Caroline closed in on Evan. Td like to ask you: what have you done?”

Evan’s temples pulsed with veins. “Explain yourself!”

Caroline’s eyes turned bloodshot. “You sent the doctor to get my consent for Lily’s surgery, and she

died during the operation!”

Evan emanated an eerie presence.

“Can I control the surgery? Can’t you see I hired the best medical team for Lily?” Evan retorted.

Caroline refused to listen. “I won’t tolerate your arrogance. You’re trying to hurt me, aren’t you?”

Evan retorted, “If I wanted revenge, do you think you’d still be here?”

“You’re known for exploiting people’s vulnerabilities. Now you’ve succeeded. You’re enjoying my

pain, aren’t you?” Caroline accused.

Evan felt a tightening in his chest. “Am I truly that despicable? Would I harm a comatose person

to get back at you?”

Caroline sneered. “Lily is here. Will you swear on her grave you never wished her harm?”

“Unnecessary? Can you claim a clear conscience without swearing?” Caroline taunted.

Evan frowned. “What must I do for you to believe me?”

“Getting impatient, Evan? How does it feel to be doubted?” Caroline chuckled and pointed to

herself. “I’ve endured your doubts repeatedly, but you’ve only faced it once.”

Evan’s gaze shifted, his fists clenched tightly.

“Go away! I don’t want to see you again!” Caroline said sternly.

Evan looked at Caroline with mixed emotions. “Lily’s death isn’t my fault, and I’ll say it just once.”

“Fine. Show me the evidence, then,” Caroline challenged.

Evan sighed. “How can I prove it? I hired the medical team. Even if there’s documentation, you’ll

still suspect me, right?”

“So, what’s your defense?” Caroline asked indifferently.

Evan’s expression grew tense. “Carol, why are you being so unreasonable?”

Caroline sneered. “I learned from my ex–boss!”

“Reuben, set down the flowers!” Evan called out.

Evan turned away, and Reuben hurriedly placed the bouquet before Lily’s tombstone
