Chapter 471 I Won’t Let You Off
Caroline’s eyes widened in shock when she saw the person.
“This is the culprit, Finn Leaver,” the police officer said.
“I know him!” Caroline replied, her voice deep.
Finn had worked as Evan’s bodyguard in the past, and she had encountered him on multiple occasions, but he was fired five years ago.
Finn looked up, meeting Caroline’s eyes with slight astonishment. “Ms. Shenton…”
Caroline turned to the police officers and asked, “Can I speak to him alone for a moment?”
The officers exchanged glances, then stood up and said, “You can talk first. Signal the camera if you need
assistance.”
Caroline nodded, and the officers left the room.
Soon after, she sat across from Finn and said, “I can’t believe you just happened to hit Scott’s car.”
Finn frowned. “What do you mean, Ms. Shenton?” NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
“Let’s not beat around the bush. Is this related to Evan?” Caroline asked directly.
Finn seemed evasive, turning away and saying, “No.”
Caroline’s frustration grew. “You’re lying!”
“Mr. Jordan has fired me, so why would I still work for him?” Finn replied.
Caroline studied him closely. “Then why did you avoid eye contact earlier?”
Finn’s tone softened. “I take responsibility for my actions. There’s no need to involve Mr. Jordan.”
“Fine. Since you won’t admit it, I’ll find out the truth on my own. If I discover you did this on purpose, I
won’t let you off,” Caroline said coldly.
Finn became infuriated. “Are you overstepping. Ms. Shenton? How is this your concern?”
“He’s my family. Do you think that’s not my concern?” Caroline retorted.
Finn was astounded. “Uh.
Seeing that Finn was speechless, Caroline stood up and declared, “We won’t accept a private settlement.
Caroline left the interrogation room, seething with anger. She couldn’t understand Evan’s motives.
‘First Lily, then Axel, and now Scott! Why does he keep endangering those around me? she thought.
Unable to bear it any longer, Caroline briefly spoke with the police before leaving the station to call Evan.
Meanwhile, Evan was at the hospital, trying to feed Axel some soup.
However, Axel vomited severely, coughing up bile.
Evan rubbed Axel’s back solemnly while Alex prepared a warm towel to clean Axel’s mouth.
Axel struggled to prop himself up and weakly shook his head. “I don’t want to eat it anymore, Daddy…”
Evan nodded sympathetically. “Alright, you don’t have to eat anymore. I’ll get you some fruits.”
Axel slowly nodded, lay back on the bed, and closed his eyes.
Alex felt his heart ache as he watched Axel, and he could only imagine Evan’s anguish.
Seeing the dark circles under Evan’s eyes, Alex suggested, “Evan, you should rest tonight.”
“No! You can go home and rest if you want,” Evan rejected.
“You haven’t slept more than eight hours in the past few days! If you keep this up, you’ll exhaust yourself before Axel recovers!” Alex insisted anxiously.
Evan was about to reply when his phone began to vibrate. He saw that Caroline was calling, so he handed an orange to Alex. “Please handle this.”
Alex took the orange, and Evan wiped his hands before stepping out of the room to answer the call.
Caroline’s angry voice was soon heard on the other end.
