Caroline looked away flatly after saying her piece. She didnât wait for Evanâs response and left the
office
The thought of Daniella and Evan being intimate made her feel disgusted.
Having dinner with him was out of the question. She couldnât peacefully sit and eat with him.
She had only asked that question to witness Daniella struggling to suppress her anger.
Once she left the office, Caroline took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down.
She checked the time. She should have enough time if she went back right now.
When she arrived at Villa Rosa by taxi, Lily hurriedly came out to greet her.
Lily urged her as soon as she saw her. âMs. Love is currently taking a shower, Ms. Shenton. I saw
her place her phone on the table.â
Carolineâs expression turned grim. âGot it. Please stall for me.â
Daniella was staying in a quest room without a bathroom. Caroline could use this opportunity to
retrieve what she needed.
Lily nodded and handed her a piece of paper. âThis is the passcode to Ms. Loveâs phone. I secretly
took a look.â
Grateful, Caroline replied, âThank you, Lily!â
She grabbed the passcode and went upstairs. Seeing the bathroom light was still on, she quickly
entered Daniellaâs room
As soon as she walked in, she noticed Daniellaâs phone on the table.
Suppressing her nervousness, she took out the reader and connected it to her own phone.
As soon as the connection was established, a stream of data appeared on the screen.
Caroline gulped as she watched the progress bar at the bottom, her ears attentive to any sounds.
outside.
When the progress bar reached 50%, a sudden commotion erupted from the next room.
Her heart skipped a beat.
Shortly after, Lilyâs voice could be heard. âThe towel is still in the dryer, Ms. Love! There wasnât much
sun today. Iâll get it for you now.â

âWhatâs wrong with you, Lily? Canât you do anything right?! Daniellaâs angry voice pierced through the
door.
Lily stuttered in response before the door was slammed shut. However, the sound of a car engine
came from downstairs at that moment.
Carolineâs nerves heightened. Evan was home!
Lily walked up to the door and asked with concern, âAre you finished, Ms. Shenton? Sir is also
home!â
âItâll be done soon!â Caroline replied.
Wiping the cold sweat from her palms, she quickly disconnected the reader when the progress
reached 100%.
She placed the phone back on the table and turned to leave.
Just as she reached Evanâs room, he appeared at the top of the stairs.
Shocked, Carolineâs facial expression changed, and she almost stumbled.
Glancing at him while feigning calmness, she opened the door and entered the room.
Just when she thought she could finally relax, he walked in as well.
âWhy are you panicking?â The manâs penetrating gaze bore into her, sharp as a hawkâs.
Sweat formed on her forehead, and just as she was contemplating what to say, Lily arrived at the
door.
âSir, Ms. Shenton is experiencing gastric discomfort. She has no appetite to eat the food I prepared
for her.â
Caroline felt secretly grateful. Lily had come to her rescue at the perfect moment!
Evanâs expression turned grim instantly. âAre you throwing a tantrum? Donât you realize how terrible
you look?â
She seized the opportunity to catch her breath. âIâm feeling a little sick. Am I not allowed to feel
that way?â
She wasnât lying: the anxiety had made her nauseous. She truly couldnât adjust to engaging in sneaky
activities.
Evan pursed his thin lips. âGet the doctor here, Lily.
âNo need!â Caroline interrupted quickly. âLily, just bring me some fruits.â
Lily nodded and left the room.

Evan didnât leave either, Instead, he sat down on the couch and began scrolling through his phone.
Caroline still hadnât fully composed herself, so she used the excuse to sort out her belongings. âIm
gonna go sort out my stuff.â
He observed her departing with an enigmatic expression.
Squinting, he rhythmically tapped his finger on the armrest of the couch.
Meanwhile, Daniella returned to her room after finishing her shower. She locked the door and
sent the pictures of the secret documents she had sneakily taken to Nic.
Sen the information. I canât be involved, or Evan will find out it was me]
Nic replied promptly. That was fast!]
She clenched her teeth. [There wonât be a next time!
[Get Evan to give you pocket money!)
She stared at the screen, falling into a momentary silence.
Now that money was mentioned, perhaps she should test him. Not only to reduce Evanâs suspicions of
her but also because she didnât have much money left. After all, she was pregnant, so asking for
financial support shouldnât be crossing a line, right? She would need to be a bit
indirect in her approach.
In her room, Caroline lay on the bed after organizing her clothes. She needed to hand over the reader
and data to Paige tomorrow and then leave Villa Rosa.
She didnât want to stay here any longer and watch as a murderer roamed freely around her.
Moreover, she still hadnât finished the design draft. Time was precious, and she couldnât afford to
waste it.
After drinking the herbal soup that Lily had served her, she planned to take a shower.
Suddenly, Evan entered the room just as she had taken out clothes to change into.
She stared at him. âCanât you knock?â
He glanced at her. âHavenât I seen every inch of your body already?â
âWhat a jerk! Pervert! she couldnât help but criticize in her mind.
Suppressing her flustered state, she composed herself and asked, âIs there something I can help you
with?â
