Chapter 280 Stop Pretending

Caroline firmly refused to involve Neil in her complicated relationships.

The Shentons were greedy, so their behavior would worsen if they learned about Neil and his

capabilities.

She understood her brother well–he wouldn’t sit idle after learning about the situation

However, solving the matter aggressively would only make it worse.

Caroline had a plan to trap the Shentons during this time.

Neil poured a glass of water for Caroline before turning to Liora and asking, “Lia, what’s going on?”

Tyler interjected at just the right moment, blurting out, “She got bitten by a dog,” to divert Neil’s

suspicions.

Neil was taken aback. He examined Liora’s hand, concerned. “Where did you get bitten? Does

hurt?”

Liora was smart enough to know that her mother did not want Neil to learn about their situation,

so she went along with Tyler’s story.

“It’s okay. Uncle Neil. Just feeling a little unwell. No big deal,” Liora reassured

Neil gently patted Liora’s head. “Alright, if you say so.

Later, Neil inquired, “Any news about Kenny?*

Caroline recounted Ylesir’s fabric factory incident from the previous night.

“I think Kenny might be up to his usual tricks, disappearing and then showing up with a surprise,

Neil mused.

“Has the factory arsonist been caught yet?” Neil asked.

Caroline sighed. “I’m not so sure. She doesn’t strike me as that type.”

It’s wise to be cautious, Carol,” Neil advised.

“I understand. No need to worry about me.”

Noticing Neil’s bloodshot eyes, Caroline asked, “You seem tired. What’s been going on?”

Neil chuckled. “Just dealing with some company affairs.”

Neil hid his complex emotions as he looked down How could he explain to Caroline that Evan had

Fighting against Evan and his grandfather was draining, but he couldn’t back down–his sister

was determined.

Caroline comforted him, “Don’t be too hard on yourself.”

Neil nodded, saying, “I get it. No worries

At night, Alex and Paige shared drinks at a bar.

Taking advantage of Paige’s tipsiness, Alex asked. “Paige, doesn’t Caroline’s daughter resemble

Neil?”

“Definitely!” Paige agreed, giving Alex a blurry look. “Why the sudden interest?”

Alex chuckled. “Just wondering. When did Neil and Caroline become acquainted?”

“You trying to squeeze information out of me?” Paige glared at Alex.

Alex was taken aback.

Paige scoffed. “Come on, don’t assume this is my drinking limit. There’s a saying that a good mood

keeps you sober. I was just thinking about how much time you’ve been spending with me lately So,

you’re trying to gather info from me, right? Caroline’s my best friend, and I won’t betray her

trust!

Sensing Paige’s anger, Alex clarified, “I swear, I have no inappropriate intentions toward Caroline!”

“Stop pretending! You think I can’t see how close you are to my boss?” Paige snapped.
