Chapter 559 Scene From a
Evan clenched his fists and took a deep breath, trying to hide his painful emotions.
âI donât mind if you hide or lie to me. All that matters is your survival, Caroline,â Evan said weakly.
Caroline was stunned. She looked at him incredulously and asked, âThen why did you question me
about
the children?â
âI just want answers about the childrenâs father now that I know you were never in a relationship with
Neil,
âEvan replied.
He couldnât ignore Carolineâs strong emotional reaction to the topic. Even so, he didnât want to press
Caroline further. The childrenâs parentage was less important than Carolineâs wellâbeing to him.
Caroline looked away, unable to meet Evanâs bitter gaze. She felt conflicted and guilty. She was
denying
her children a fatherâs love to maintain custody.
She closed her eyes until her tears were spent, creating a heavy atmosphere in the room.
Evan turned to Caroline, his expression softening. âCaroline, how can I make you trust me and stop
being
so hostile?â
î
Caroline bit her lip and said, âI donât know.â
Iâll
Evanâs disappointment was evident. âIn that case, Iâll find my own way to break down your defenses.â
Caroline was taken aback. Was he trying to reconcile with her?
Before she could ask, Evan had left the room.
Shortly after Evanâs departure, Paige entered the room with swollen eyes. She wiped her tears away
and asked, âAre you awake, Carol? Have you had any soup?â
Caroline studied Paigeâs eyes and asked, âHave you been crying?â
Paige sniffled and sat beside Caroline. âIâm fine.â
Caroline noted, âYour voice sounds dull. Donât make me worry.â
Paige burst into tears. âAlex and I broke up. Carol.â
Paige tearfully recounted her conversation with Alex to Caroline.
Caroline advised, âTake your time to think this through, Paige.â
Paige nodded. âI have, and I need to move on from this discomfort.â

Caroline lacked the strength to persuade her further. âAlright. I support your decision.â
Paige wiped her tears away and scanned the room. âWhereâs Evan?â
î
Caroline was surprised. âDidnât you see him leave?â
Paige shook her head.
Caroline shared, âHe told me something.â
As Paige ordered food delivery on her phone, she asked, âWhat did he say?â
Caroline revealed, âHe mentioned using his own method to break down my defenses.
Paige looked shocked. âIs he pursuing you again now that he knows about you and Neil? This feels like
something out of a .â
Caroline replied, âYouâre being overly dramatic.â
Paige suggested, âIf heâs willing to change and reconcile with you, consider it, Carol. After all, you have
three children together.â
Caroline contemplated deeply.
âCan he change his habit of distrusting people? Can he truly trust me?â she wondered.
Paige added, âRemember, most of your past misunderstandings were due to lack of trust and Daniella.
Evan has been living a virtuous life!â
