“Don’t go, Carol!” Paige exclaimed. ‘Casey might harm you.”

As Paige’s voice faded, Eira entered the room with an ice pack. She glanced at them before realizing it

was for Paige.

Paige accepted it gratefully and said, “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome,” Eira replied and left.

Caroline approached Paige, picked up the ice pack, and gently placed it on her eyes. “I’ll be careful,

don’t

worry. You should be more concerned about yourself.”

Paige rested on Caroline’s legs and reassured her, “I’ll be fine. It’ll pass.”

Caroline sighed. “Have you heard about Zenya?”

Paige was surprised. “No, why?”

Caroline explained, “I want to do charity work. Ms. Shawn asked me to make clothes for impoverished

children and send supplies.”

Paige sat up in amazement. “Are you going alone? When are you leaving?”

Caroline considered and replied, “The clothes will be ready in about ten days. I’ll go then.”

“Next week, right?” Paige confirmed.

Caroline nodded. “Yes.”

“That sounds risky. I’ve heard the path to the mountainous area is dangerous,” Paige expressed her

concern.

Caroline shrugged it off. “The children there face danger daily, so why should I be afraid? Plus, I won’t

be

alone.”

Paige asked, “Are you going with a team?”

Caroline confirmed, “Yes, it’s safer with a team. Don’t worry.”

Paige conceded, “Alright, I won’t say more. Just stay safe.”

On Monday morning, Caroline attended a meeting at the company to discuss clothing styles and

Designing children’s clothes was straightforward, and by noon, the design department sent over a

dozen styles for Caroline’s review.

After selecting a few designs and determining the quantity, she prepared to send them to Kenny for

production when Kenny called her.

Kenny asked, “Have you visited the factory, G? I’m taking the workers to the new one if it’s alright.”

Caroline had almost forgotten about the factory change. “Sure, take them there tomorrow. Meanwhile,

as we discussed, you can start producing children’s clothing for the impoverished area.”

Kenny agreed. “Sure, have the clothing department send over the templates, and we can start

production the day after tomorrow,”

Caroline instructed the clothing department accordingly and received a text message once she left the

office for lunch. She halted by the elevator, reading Casey’s message: [Meet me at Grand East

Hospital at 8:00 p.m. for our date.]

Caroline frowned. Is Casey out of his mind, scheduling a date at the hospital?

Caroline: [Change the location.]

Casey: [No. Afraid of seeing Evan at his hospital, Ms. Shenton?]

Caroline’s anger surged. ‘Are you only capable of provoking Evan? Hasn’t he hurt you enough? Are

you a masochist? she thought.

She suppressed her anger and texted: [I’m not scared. See you tomorrow

She then stashed her phone in her bag, not wanting to continue the conversation.

In the afternoon, Axel stared at his bald reflection in the mirror, rubbing his head with his sore arm. He

wondered if his mother would be saddened by his current appearance.
