Caroline said, “No…”

“Why not? Isn’t it a good way to avoid responsibility by hiring a dismissed bodyguard to deal with Scott?”

Paige asked.

Caroline rubbed her forehead and replied, “Paige, Evan wouldn’t stoop to such treacherous acts given his

character. Besides, he appears quite busy and exhausted lately.”

“So, you confronted him in person, right?

“Yes, I wasn’t calm before, but I believe Evan had no part in Lily’s death, Caroline asserted.

Paige chimed in. “Speaking of that, I’ve been thinking about it for the past two days. My boss spent a NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

considerable amount on that medical team. It doesn’t add up for him to intentionally botch the surgery. If

he wanted Lily gone, he could have let her pass away at any other hospital to avoid trouble.”

Caroline admitted, “I was too impulsive and already apologized to him.”

“I love it when you apologize, Carol, after realizing your mistake! You want information about Finn, right?

I’ll have someone look into it and keep you updated.”

“Thank you for doing this.”

“Don’t be a stranger. How’s Scott?”

“He’s okay.”

“Good to hear.”

Half an hour later, Caroline returned to the hospital.

Scott had already regained consciousness and was giving a statement to the police. When he saw Caroline, guilt flashed across his face, and he asked the police, “Is that all?”

The police officer stood up. “Yes, rest well. I’ll contact you if I have more questions.”

“Alright, thank you.”

“It’s my job.”

Caroline escorted the police to the door and returned to Scott.

Scott looked at her and said, “I’m sorry, Carol.”

Caroline sat beside Scott. “No need to apologize. No one wants to be in this situation. How are you feeling?”

Scott smiled. “I’m fine, just a mild concussion. I’m lucky.”

Caroline looked at him sternly. “How can you crack jokes at a time like this? I was terrified at the scene.”

Scott pursed his lips and looked down. I’m sorry for worrying you.”

Caroline handed him a glass of water. “Drink this.”

Scott accepted it. “I heard from the nurse that you went to the station with the police?”

Caroline replied, “Yes. They wanted to discuss compensation options with the family, but it still depends on your decision.”

Caroline chose not to mention her meeting with Evan since it wasn’t connected to the accident.

“I’ll talk to the police about the accident, but I’m afraid I won’t be visiting the Xanders with you anytime. soon,” Scott said.

Caroline lowered her gaze. “It’s fine, I won’t have the time either.”

‘Good for Daniella. She gets to enjoy some carefree time,‘ she thought.

“What do you mean? Scott asked.

Caroline explained, “I have a lot of work to catch up on at the company, so I won’t be able to make it.”

Scott pondered briefly. “Have you heard about the Xanders‘ 100th–anniversary celebration?”

*100th–anniversary celebration? I had no idea. How did you find out?”

Scott shared, “I heard from my colleagues. Mr. Xander Sr. considers the 100th–anniversary celebration extremely important. I think it’s happening next month. Would you consider exposing Daniella then?”

Caroline smiled. “Thank you, Scott. This is valuable information.”

Scott smiled back. ‘Don’t mention it. I’ve been a burden this time,”

“Don’t say that. Are you hungry? Would you like something to eat?‘ Caroline offered.

Caroline returned to Bayview Villa at 10:00 p.m.

Kenny and the two children were already awake and rushed to greet her.

“Mommy! You’re finally home. Did you manage to finish everything you needed to do today?” Liora

exclaimed.
