Caroline felt a sharp pain in her chest. She said firmly, “You can think what you want. I’m going inside. Stay out in the cold as long as you want.”

She turned and walked away, her eyes stinging, possibly from the cold. ‘He still doesn’t want to explain the situation between him and Daniella! I’m the one being too sentimental!”

Evan didn’t stop her and got into the car after Caroline shut the door. Shortly after, he called Reuben.

Reuben answered, “Mr. Jordan.”

Evan gazed at the villa and instructed, “Find a way to obtain Tyler and Liora’s DNA.”

Reuben asked, “Are you still sure they are your children?”

Evan replied coldly, “Sure? They are my children.”

Reuben wondered about Evan’s certainty. “Noted, sir. Give me a day.”

Evan ordered, “Keep this quiet. Send the DNA abroad for a paternity test as soon as you can.”

Reuben cautioned, “It will take some time to get the report.”

“Time is not a problem. I must prevent anyone from tampering with the results,” Evan said firmly

Reuben nodded, saying. “Understood.”

Tyler and Liora sat on the sofa, heads lowered.

Caroline sat across from them and said solemnly, “I want you to explain why you lied to me.”

Liora anxiously clutched her outfit and looked at Caroline with caution. “Mommy, it was me who-”

Tyler interrupted, “I was the one who took Lia to meet him.”

Caroline frowned. “Ty, don’t take sides. Let Lia explain herself.”

Scott sighed. “Carol, you’re scaring the children.”

“Because he’s my daddy. He saved me, so I want to care about him. You told us to be grateful, didn’t you?

Am I wrong for doing this?”

“I appreciate your concern for him, but lying to me is not acceptable!” Caroline sympathized with Liora but couldn’t overlook lying, a matter of principle. She didn’t want her child to become a liar.

Liora cried profusely.

Scott stood up, ready to comfort her, but Caroline stopped him. “You can’t comfort her. I can’t move on

from this until she admits her fault.”

“Carol, Lia is still young. Don’t be so strict,” Scott urged.

Caroline said firmly, “No! If not now, when? I can support her decision to meet her father, but she can’t lie

to me.”

Liora sobbed. “Mommy, I was wrong! I won’t lie to you again!”

It was the first time Liora had seen her mother so furious, and it scared her.

“Mommy, Lia has learned her lesson. Please don’t be angry.” Tyler gently patted Liora’s back.

Caroline took two deep breaths. “Tyler, you’re the older brother. You shouldn’t lie to me like your sister.”

“Mommy, Lia kept it from you because she didn’t want to make you sad. She knows you don’t like her spending time with him. Isn’t that a white lie?” Tyler asked.
