Chapter 561 I Will Do This Too

Caroline stiffened as she tried to refuse Evan’s assistance. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“I can handle it myself,” she insisted, reaching for the spoon.

Evan gently pushed her hand down.

“Please don’t strain yourself. It’ll help you recover faster and get back to Angelbay.” Evan chided coldly.

Caroline was rendered speechless, realizing she couldn’t linger there forever. There was still much work to be done. With determination, she nodded and accepted the spoonful of soup Evan offered.

Satisfied, Evan was about to feed her another spoonful when Kenny burst into the ward. His eyes widened in surprise as he saw Evan feeding Caroline.

“You… You guys…” he stammered, clearly taken aback.

In just a few days, Kenny’s fair skin had tanned.

Caroline noticed Kenny’s gaze fixed on Evan’s hand and asked awkwardly, “How did it go?”

Kenny was about to answer when Evan shot him a warning look.

Ignoring Kenny’s question, Evan continued to feed Caroline. “You should eat first.”

Dazed, Kenny echoed Evan’s words. ‘Yes, you should eat first.”

Feeling helpless, Caroline complied.

Once Caroline had finished her soup, Evan moved to the side to read some documents.

Kenny was sitting by the bed, peeling an apple for Caroline. “Don’t worry about it. I managed to deliver the

goods. Those kids are in dire straits…”

Caroline listened quietly as Kenny described the situation in the mountains.

“Okay, it’s finally over,” Caroline said with a bitter smile. “Although I ended up hurting myself…”

“But you’ve made a significant impact in the media,” Kenny interjected, showing Caroline an online trending topic on his phone. “You haven’t been aware of what’s been happening these past two days.

Caroline skimmed through the trending topic and saw it was filled with praise for her courageous efforts to help underprivileged children.

“Well, as long as it benefits the company,” she remarked.

Evan playfully joined the conversation. “And what do you think benefits the company? Trying to boost sales by building a positive image?”

Caroline remembered that Evan hired her mentor as his company’s designer and mentioned that incident. “True, I may not be on the same level as Joan, but MK is a prominent enterprise in Angelbay. Establishing my company’s presence is a challenge. Is it wrong for me to leverage my reputation?”

Evan grinned, teasing her, “Are you accusing me of trying to stifle your business?”

Caroline looked away and replied, “The business world can be ruthless, and what you did wasn’t stifling me. Entrepreneurs always seek profit. It’s just a practical approach.”

Evan gazed at her admiringly–she was the woman he had fallen for.

However, Kenny chimed in with a hint of annoyance. “Didn’t you hire Joan just because our sales

outperformed yours?”

Evan remained silent, his expression cold, but Caroline looked at Kenny and stated, “I would have done

the same.”

Kenny pouted and retorted, “Alright, enough with the lovey–dovey act in front of me.”

His comment caused Caroline to blush.

“What are you talking about?” she scolded him.

Kenny was scheduled to return to Angelbay at 9:00 a.m. to oversee company matters. On the other hand,

Evan had a video conference to attend shortly after Kenny’s departure.

Caroline decided to take a nap but was surprised when Neil arrived with Greta, Thomas, and her two

children.
