Trapped in Love
Chapter 671 Consult Someone Else Wiser Naomi pulled the car to the side of the road. âI followed your instructions, Daniella.â
Daniellaâs face contorted with anger. âItâs not enough! I want to destroy Carolineâs reputation! What good Is this tiny piece of information to me?â
Naomi retorted, âDo I have to let other men into her house to get hack at her?â
âYes! Thatâs the only way to bring her down! Daniellaâs fury distorted her expression.
Naomi replied, âYour plan is bound to fail then. Thereâs no way to enter her house.â
With great effort, Daniella calmed herself. âKeep an eye on her. Youâre going back to work next week, right?
âYes.â
âFind a way to tail her daily so that I can selze an opportunityâ
âUnderstood.â
After ending the call, Daniella clutched her phone with malice. Naomi owed her a significant favor from their past overseas cooperation. She was confident that she could make Caroline suffer immensely with Naomi as her spy.
Four days later.
Caroline was preparing to discuss the next dayâs work matters. As soon as she left her room, her phone rang. Curious, she answered, âHello?â
A manâs voice on the other end said, âMs. Shenton, please come to the hospital. Mr. Xander wishes to see you.â
Caroline immediately refused, âIâm not coming.â
The manâs voice turned cold. âMs. Shenton, you can decline, but we wonât hesitate to forcibly take you.
from your home.â
Caroline was startled. If they barged in, they would terrify her children on their break. Reluctantly, she conceded, âOkay, send me the address, Iâll be there.â
Half an hour later, Caroline rushed to Angelbay Hospital and entered Graysonâs room. The bodyguard allowed her entry, Caroline clenched her fists and took a few deep breaths before walking in.
Grayson sat by the window, looking sickly with sunken cheeks and lifeless eyes. He turned when he heard her approach.
Caroline was visibly shocked by his appearance. His face was dramatically changed in just a few days.
Grayson avoided her gaze.
Caroline didnât exchange greetings. Instead, she took a seat and kept her distance. She despised those who abused their power, especially when it led to murder, even if they were related by blood. Her resentment toward him deepened as he also seemed affected by the situation.
âWhy are you so afraid of me?â Grayson spoke weakly, coughing.
Caroline remained silent, her eyes fixed on him.
âWhat can I do to bring your brother back to the Xander Group?â Grayson got straight to the point.
Caroline frowned. âDo you think I influenced my brotherâs decision to start his own company?â
Grayson scoffed. âWho else but you?â
Caroline smiled. âFine then, I wonât try to persuade my brother to return to the company. Consult someone wiser.â
When Caroline attempted to leave, two bodyguards blocked her path.
She was infuriated and turned to glare at Grayson. âWhat are you doing?â
Grayson stood up, coughing. âDo you think you can walk out of here today if you donât agree to my request?â
Caroline clenched her fists tightly and almost blurted the word âdespicableâ.
