Semua Bab Trapped in Love: Bab 291 - Bab 300

Evan explained nonchalantly, "With Caroline's troublesome relatives."Alex said, "Huh? Do you mean those we encountered at the restaurant?Evan smiled. "You have been very close with her recently. Aren't you going to help her out?"Alex was displeased. "Why aren't you doing that?"'Why should I do it when Evan has a longer relationship with Caroline than me and Paige? Moreover, I was almost incapacitated by Paige's kick this evening,' Alex complained inwardly.Evan sipped his drink. "I'm the most influential CEO of Southeast Rheasia, after all. I can't get involved in a women's fight."'You're aware that you're the most influential CEO now, but do you remember those five years of heavy drinking while searching for Caroline?' Alex mocked inwardly.Alex said, "If you can't get involved, do you think I can get involved?"Evan glanced at Alex. "You are a women's advocate and know how to manipulate them.""Are you complimenting me?" Alex was furious. A moment later, he heaved a s

Caroline observed Naomi's reaction, but all she received was an indifferent nod.She turned her gaze away and gently patted Naomi's shoulder. "I appreciate your efforts. Once the company is in a better state, I'll ensure you receive a raise.""Thank you, Ms. Shenton," Naomi replied.-Caroline hurried back to Bayview Villa and took Jamie outside for some fresh air. Treating Jamie to a meal outside was the key to getting her to take her medicine.Seeing Jamie's improved spirits, Caroline reassured her, "I understand that staying home can be dull, Jamie. However, I need to work to earn money. I promise to take you out every weekend and go for walks with you at night when I'm free. Will that be acceptable?"Jamie looked at Caroline with a touch of sadness. "Carol, did I disrupt your work today?"Caroline answered frankly, "Yes."She didn't shy away from being honest with Jamie because she needed to resolve this situation. Otherwise, she would end up sacrificing her job productivit

Evan's tired expression deepened, and he said, "Please, let me know right away if there's a problem. I'll arrange for someone to deliver my mother's medicine. Also, I could really use your help looking after Axel for two days while I'm away on a business trip.""Axel is my kid. No need to ask for help. It's my duty," Caroline said, looking at Axel still in the car. She smiled and asked, "You coming out, dear?"Axel picked up his backpack and exited the car. He approached Caroline and said, "I didn't want to interrupt your talk with Daddy, Mommy."Caroline affectionately pinched Axel's cheek. "You don't need to be so cautious when you're with me. Relax and stay here. I've arranged for a doctor to look after Grandma every day."Evan was taken aback by the sight of Axel's smile directed at Caroline. It felt unfamiliar as if he had never witnessed Axel smiling before.While observing their interaction, a sudden thought struck Evan. 'Maybe Axel could change for the better if he stayed

Jamie's body shook violently, prompting Caroline to embrace her while she gazed in astonishment toward the restaurant's entrance.This reaction from Jamie occurred after she had spotted a man who had already left.Caroline didn't dwell on it too much. She was accustomed to Jamie relapsing whenever she encountered other men.Not far away, in a parked car, Casey stared at Jamie with a cold, calculating look. He recognized the woman beside Jamie as Evan's former mistress.With a sneer, Casey removed his glasses and leisurely cleaned the lenses. He hadn't anticipated that Caroline would still be alive.A moment later, Casey put his glasses back on, and his phone began to ring. He glanced at the caller ID and saw it was Daniella, so he answered slowly.Daniella's voice was gentle as she inquired, "Are you available tonight, Mr. Jordan? Can I treat you to a drink?"Casey smirked. "Sure, send me the address. I'll be there."-At 7:30 p.m., Casey and Daniella met at a hotel's bar.Ca

Caroline stared at her phone, puzzled. Kenny hadn't shared his arrival time for tomorrow.Unable to sleep, Caroline descended the stairs.Upon seeing the Shentons' mess in the living room, she massaged her throbbing head. As she moved toward the kitchen, a terrible smell hit her. Opening the kitchen door, she was shocked by what she found.The floor was covered in chicken waste, and one of the chickens had even hopped onto the counter, spreading waste all over the beige surface!Caroline gripped the doorknob tightly to control herself. She wouldn't tolerate their careless behavior in her house if it weren't for the timing.Once upstairs, Caroline exhaled deeply. It was time to put her plan into action.-Caroline woke the three children at 7:30 a.m.Liora was so lethargic she could not even hold up her head. "I had a tummy ache last night. I can't get up…" she said weakly."Me too, Mommy.""Me too…"Caroline said concerningly, "Is it bad? Would you like me to take you to the
