Chapter 480 Still Wary of Me

“Does Daniella want both of you to fight so she can watch? That’s shameless,” said Paige, shocked.

“No, she doesn’t want to watch, but she sees this as an opportunity to gain Casey’s trust,” Caroline

replied.

Paige frowned. “So, Daniella is using Casey’s influence and financial ability to sabotage your

relationship with Evan?”

Caroline rubbed her temples. “Right now, it’s just Evan or Daniella and Casey.”

“Carol, do you have proof of Daniella’s communication with Casey?” Paige asked.

“No, but I can find a way to get it,” Caroline said, picking up her glass.

Paige laid her head on the table and yawned. “Geez, it’s one thing after another..”

Caroline looked puzzled. “Paige, you seem to get tired easily lately and don’t even enjoy nightlife

anymore.

–

Paige’s eyes drooped. “I think work exhausts me, and I don’t get enough sleep.”

Caroline fell silent. “Have you been getting your period?”

“My periods have never been regular, I’m definitely not pregnant,” Paige said, turning her head and

closing

her eyes.

Caroline’s heart sank. “Do you and Alex use contraception?”

Paige remained quiet.

Suddenly, she sat up, wide–eyed. “Wait!”

“How’s your appetite? Have you been feeling sick? Caroline asked anxiously.

“No, but I’ve been eating more than usual,” Paige said.

Caroline considered it. “I’m not sure because I had morning sickness during my pregnancy with the

triplets. But it might be best to get checked so you can plan.”

Paige lay back down. “Sure, I’ll do it when I have time.”

Paige’s voice faded as Caroline’s phone rang. They exchanged a glance after seeing Casey’s text

message.

Caroline grabbed the phone as Palge exclaimed, “Have you been talking to Cosey, Carol?”

Caroline was stunned. “Didn’t I mention it to you?”

“No! Am I not your best friend anymore? Why didn’t you tell me something so important?” Paige yelled.

Caroline’s ears rang from Paige’s outburst. “Listen to me…

“Okay, I’m listening!”

Caroline explained her few encounters with Casey.

Paige’s jaw dropped. “Damn! I was just wondering how you knew about Casey and Daniella. So that’s

what’s going on! Did you find out anything during your meetings with him?”

Caroline said, “No, he’s still suspicious of me.”

Paige said, “That makes sense. Let’s see what he sent you.“.

Caroline opened the chat.

Casey. I heard Evan hired a top designer for his company.

Paige was puzzled. “That’s it?”

Caroline smirked. “He’s obviously testing me.”

Paige sighed. “My mind’s not working well lately.”

Caroline: [Yes, what do you suggest I do to turn things around?)

Casey. Let’s discuss it in person. Are you free tonight?)

Caroline: [After dinner.]

Casey: [Great, I’ll send you the location later.]

That night, Paige joined for dinner. After that, Caroline drove to Casey’s location. She arrived at the

cafe

15 minutes later and found Casey sitting by the window.

She sat across from him. “Apologies for making you wait.”

Casey’s gaze met hers. “It’s been a few days, and you look a bit tired.”
