Chapter 800 Why Do You Stop Me?

Caroline gazed at Evan intently.

Why doesn’t he just spill the beans all at once instead of making me ask questions one at a time? On the other hand, why did Evan decide not to

report it to the police? she thought.

Caroline pondered the dynamics within the Jordan family.

Moments later, her eyes grew calm. “Reporting it to the police could cause irreparable harm to MK. Additionally, your father’s shares won’t be

passed down to you. I support your idea,” she assured.

Evan seemed grateful as he delicately brushed away a stray strand of Caroline’s hair. He softly asked, “Do

you know what I appreciate most about you?”

Caroline blushed and looked away. “I don’t.”

Evan smirked. “You’re considerate. You could certainly handle your father’s murderer through legal

channels, but you chose to step back for my sake.”

Caroline was taken aback. “I didn’t choose to step back, but I believe that if you can do this for me, why

can’t I wait a little longer for you?”

Her face reddened, and she stood up. I’m going to take a shower!”

As she turned to leave, Evan gently grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his embrace.

Caroline caught the familiar scent of pine trees, and her body tensed.

“I haven’t showered yet, E–Evan…” she stammered.

Evan loosened his grip slightly and gazed at her face, which he had missed deeply for years. “We’ve done

more than enough, I want you,” he said, leaning in to kiss Caroline.

Her body went weak as Evan skillfully kissed her.

Suddenly, a knock echoed at the door.

The voice of the bodyguard sounded from outside. “Ms. Shenton, Mr. Wilson is here.”

Caroline and Evan turned their attention to the door.

“Scott? Why would he come at this time? Caroline was surprised.

Evan released his grip on Caroline, and his expression soured. “Tell the bodyguard to inform him you’re asleep,” Evan demanded.

Caroline pushed him away. “Scott must have something important to discuss if he’s here at this hour. I’ll go’downstairs to find out first.”

Evan frowned. “Does he usually come at this time?

“No, that’s why I need to go downstairs,” Caroline replied as she straightened her clothes.

Evan didn’t stop her but wanted to accompany her downstairs. Caroline interjected, “Scott might not reveal anything if you’re with me. You

should stay here.”

“Am I embarrassing you? Or do you not want him to know about our relationship?” Evan looked at her disapprovingly.

“What are you thinking? Scott and I are just friends,” Caroline retorted.

Evan said, “If that’s the case, why stop me from meeting him?”

‘It’s certainly unusual for Scott to come at this time, no matter the circumstances, Caroline thought. ‘No

one can stop Evan when he gets jealous.‘

They adjusted their attire and headed downstairs to meet Scott.

Scott sat on the living room sofa with two boxes of supplements in front of him. He glanced upstairs

upon hearing the commotion.

Noticing Evan walking behind Caroline, he calmly greeted, “Mr. Jordan is here, too.”

Evan glanced at him and replied, “If you can come, so can I.

Caroline was rendered speechless. ‘Does he feel the need to assert dominance in the presence of

another man?
