Caroline asked, "What do you want?""It's quite simple. I'll grant you freedom if you manage to persuade Neil to return," Grayson replied, pausing to catch his breath.Caroline found the idea ridiculous. "I can't alter a choice Neil has made. Do you truly believe he'd change his mind just because I asked?"Grayson's expression grew serious. "If you can't bring him back, no one else can! Are you going to stand idly by as I send your brother to prison? Caroline, you bear the responsibility for influencing Neil's actions!"Ella would be looking after me if it weren't for you! And why do I face humiliation? It's all because of you! None of this would have occurred without your involvement!"You've brought unhappiness to your parents, and now you're causing misery to Neil and me! To what extent are you willing to dismantle the Xander family?"Caroline could no longer maintain her composure. "Isn't all of this your own doing? Would my parents be suffering if you hadn't exiled my father

"How is he now?" Neil asked. The doctor said, "He fell asleep after receiving intravenous fluid. He likely won't leave the hospital. Spend time with him."Caroline pulled away from Neil, her gaze distant.Neil nodded at the doctor, who then left.Caroline said hoarsely, "Go back to the Xander Group, Neil.""Carol?" Neil looked surprised.Wiping her tears, Caroline continued. "I don't want him haunting my dreams when he's gone."Neil lowered his gaze. "Maybe I acted too impulsively.""I know you want him to apologize to me, but he'd rather die than apologize due to his pride," Caroline said."Your personality is just like our mother's. She used to be stubborn, too." Neil gently caressed Caroline's hair.-Downstairs, Yuliana disguised herself as a nurse and strolled through the corridor. She glanced at Scott's clinic as she walked by.A passing nurse looked at her in astonishment. "Are you new here?"Yuliana stopped and replied with a smile, "I'm starting at another clinic

"I want to resign," Naomi blurted out suddenly.Caroline halted her steps and asked, "Why do you want to resign when you're doing so well?""Instead of calling it a resignation, I'd call it a change in job position," Naomi replied.Caroline was surprised but said, "Let's talk upstairs."-Caroline placed her bag in her office and asked, "Why do you want to change your job position?"Naomi adjusted her glasses. "Working in the HR department doesn't suit me because I don't enjoy interacting with people."Caroline couldn't argue, knowing Naomi's personality well."Nevertheless, you've been performing exceptionally well in the HR department. It would be a shame to change your job position," Caroline said as she served Naomi a glass of water."I'm not up to it," Naomi insisted.Caroline sighed. "Which department would you like to transfer to?""I'd like to return to my initial position."Caroline frowned. "Secretary? That seems like a waste of your talents." Naomi lowered her

Caroline remained silent, hoping her concerns were unwarranted.-Meanwhile, Alex decided to dine at Villa Rosa in view of Caroline and Paige's dinner date. Evan frowned as he observed Alex indulging in a hearty steak. "Have you not eaten in weeks?" Evan asked contemptuously.Alex waved dismissively. "I've gone vegan lately.""What do you mean?" Evan sipped his wine.Alex put down his utensils. "Paige's been on a vegan diet due to her pregnancy. I'm joining her."Evan scoffed. "You're quite the self-tormentor.""How's this torment? I'm just keeping up with my wife, unlike someone who hasn't won her over yet," Alex said proudly.Evan's expression stiffened. "Leave if you don't want to eat."Alex chuckled, "I was just joking."As Alex's voice faded, the door opened, and Reuben entered the dining room with a serious expression."Mr. Jordan, Mr. Price," Reuben greeted them.Alex spoke with food in his mouth. "Reuben, join us for dinner!""I've already eaten, Mr. Price," Re

Evan felt a huge sense of relief, let out a deep breath, and headed toward Caroline. "Let's go, I'll give you a ride home.""Evan, why do you humiliate me like this?" Caroline's voice was strangely cold.Evan replied, "I don't mean to humiliate you. I'm just concerned about your well-being."Caroline sneered. "Taking me to the hospital suggests that you suspect something between me and Casey, right?" She wouldn't know the cause of the misunderstanding if the doctor hadn't informed her about Casey's AIDS diagnosis."Am I the type of woman who sleeps around? Am I that awful?"Noticing Caroline's shaking body, Evan felt his heart wrench in pain. "I never thought there was anything more between you and Casey."Caroline raised her head to glare at Evan. "Do you even believe that yourself?"Evan asked, "How can I explain?"Caroline burst into laughter. "Explain? Do you think your explanation matters now? Is Casey aware of his condition? If not, what are you worried about? That he m
