Chapter 183

Chapter 183 He Tried to Get Me to Talk Caroline felt sorry for her children, but she couldn’t do more until she resolved things with Daniella and Grayson.

She couldn’t bear her children being taken away again. She couldn’t manage everything, so she had to leave them with Evan, even though it was tough.

Safety was her utmost priority.

Caroline embraced Tyler and Axel, their small group standing closely together.

With a gentle sniffle, she assured, “I’ll always be here for you, my dear children. I can visit anytime you want. Just hold on a bit longer, alright?”

Tyler and Liora both nodded while Axel remained silent Noticing Axel’s lack of response, Caroline eased her hold on him and looked at him. “Axel?”

Meeting her gaze, Axel cautiously asked, “Will I get to go with you too?”

Caroline felt a pang of sadness but responded quickly. “Yes, my precious. You’re coming with me too. How could I ever leave you behind?”

Axel smiled, Unexpectedly, Liora chimed in “He tried to make me talk, Mommy!*

Caroline was puzzled “You mean your father?”

Liora nodded. “Yes. He asked me about your likes, but I didnt betray you because I’m clever Caroline recalled the roses. How far would he go to discover her preferences, even involving their children?

Kenny observed Paige and questioned, “Why did you choose such a provocative outfit, Paige?”

Although introduced through Caroline, Paige and Kenny had become close friends over time.

Paige sniggered There are so many hot guys working in Caroline’s company. I have no choice but to put in more effort in my dressing.”

“Desperate to get married, huh?” Kenny teased.

Paige said in contempt, “Love is like a swamp, and I’m not foolish enough to step into it.”

“D–Did you invite Mr. Jordan, Carol?”

Caroline, who was busy texting, looked up and followed Paige’s gaze. Her body tensed up abruptly at the sight of Alex and Evan walking into the hall.

“How did they get an invitation to come here? she wondered.

Caroline’s seat was not far from the entrance, so Alex and Evan noticed them easily.

Alex greeted, “Hey”

Caroline looked at them in puzzlement before her gaze landed on Evan’s cold face. He sent someone to investigate me, huh? He still hasn’t changed his annoying habit after all these years!

Caroline looked at Evan in displeasure and said, “Mr. Jordan, I don’t remember inviting you. May I inquire how you received the invitation?”
