Trapped in Love
Chapter 89 Itâd Be Tough To Get Revenge
Caroline wearily shifted her body, turning away from Evan. The mere sight of him was enough to make
her wish she could disappear from the face of the earth.
Her movement caught the attention of the man who had been engrossed in a document. He looked up,
rose swiftly from his seat, and approached the bed. His lips moved, but no words came out. After a
moment, he turned to exit the room and called for Lily.
Lily hurried in, carrying food, and addressed Caroline. âMs. Shenton?â
Caroline slowly opened her eyes and responded with a flat tone. âMm.â
âIâm glad youâre awake. You should sit up and have some soup. Youâve been on drips for days, so your
stomach might be upset.â
Caroline was taken aback and turned to look at Lily. âHow long was I unconscious?â
âThree days, and sir hasnât slept for three days either. Heâs been using hot towels to clean your body
every hour.â
âDonât mention him.â
Caroline interrupted Lily, her eyes devoid of emotion. âI donât want to hear about him or see him.â
Lily had heard a little something from Reuben about why Caroline was out for the past few days.
She knew very well why Caroline came back. But she had promised Caroline to keep it a secret.
Feeling the weight of Carolineâs cold gaze, Lily sighed inwardly.
âAlright, I wonât mention him. Can you sit tup and have some soup?â
Caroline furrowed her brow. Who checked on my condition?â
âThe doctor. He said you need to focus on recovering your health. â
Caroline felt a sense of relief upon hearing that
The fact that her babies were not mentioned indicated that they
LIMALE
We were still unaware.
And she felt no discomfort in her abdomen, assuring her that her babies were doing well.
With Lilyâs assistance, she managed to sit up.
Only after slowly sipping the soup did she recline again.
âMs. Shenton, I beg you not to leave, okay? This illness will linger if you donât take it seriously â
Caroline responded softly. âI understand.â
For the sake of her babies, she had to regain her health.

However, she had left her laptop in her rental house in Redwood Neighborhood. The submission
deadline was approaching.
After a brief pause, she spoke up. âLily, Iâll give you the passcode to my house. Could you get my
laptop for me?â
Lily nodded. âOf course, just send me the location. Iâll get it for you.â
After Lily left, she reached for her phone on the bedside table and checked it.
Paige had sent her over a hundred messages and called her numerous times.
[Something happened, Paige. I canât send you the reader now.] She replied.
[I almost had a heart attack when the boss answered my call. How are you feeling? Are you still at Villa
Rosa?] Paige replied promptly.
[Much better. If you have time, you can drop by, and Iâll pass you the thing.] She texted back.
[Iâll come by after work. There are two things I need to tell you. First, they replaced everyone in the
secretaryâs office. Second, Daniella is actually a Xander! Itâs going to be tough to get revenge on her
with the Xanders backing her up.]
She couldnât believe that Daniella was truly a Xander.
But it didnât matter.
Even if she had to sacrifice everything, she wouldnât let that scheming bitch live happily ever
after!
However, why were all the secretaries replaced?
Could it be that Evan also suspected the other secretaries?
Secretariesâ¦
She furrowed her brow, feeling like she had forgotten something.
This might be connected to the young secretary!
She appeared out of nowhere and asked her to come to the office.
The day she went, the companyâs confidential information was stolen.
After giving it some thought, she replied to Paige.
[Paige, can you investigate someone for me?]
[Who?]
[Cecilia Ford, the young secretary I used to mentorâ¦]
Paige immediately called her as soon as she mentioned her suspicion.

She began complaining the moment she picked up the call. âCaroline! Is this your pregnant brain
talking again?! That person is clearly colluding with Daniella! Damn it. Just you wait, Iâll have
someone follow her. Iâll make sure justice is served for you!â
Caroline couldnât help but smile. âSure, thank you.â
As soon as she hung up with Paige, another call came in.
