Chapter 48 Are You Leaving
After Evan hung up, his handsome face contorted with disgust.
“Mr. Jordan.” Reuben, who was behind the wheel, sensed Evan’s unease and spoke up.
Evan massaged the space between his brows and said, “Tell me everything you got on her.”
Reuben complied and started relaying the details. “We spoke to Ms. Love’s foster parents. Their
statements align with the information in Ms. Love’s medical records. They even mentioned how
she always spoke about saving you when they brought her home all those years ago.”
Hearing that, Evan’s eyes narrowed, a mix of confirmation and lingering suspicion taking hold.
Daniella had always given him a vague weird feeling, but now, he was sure.
A sinking feeling settled in Evan’s heart. He raised his gaze to meet Reuben’s “Take me to the
hospital.”
Reuben appeared taken aback. “Mr. Jordan, you have a video conference scheduled this afternoon.”
“Reschedule it for tonight,” Evan coldly commanded.
Without saying another word, Reuben steered the car toward the hospital.
However, just as they arrived at the hospital entrance and Evan was about to step out, Reuben
abruptly halted him. “Mr. Jordan, Ms. Love cut her wrist.”
Evan froze in his tracks, turning to face Reuben, his brow furrowed “Where is she now?”
Reuben responded swiftly, “She’s being rushed to the hospital”

Inside the emergency room, Caroline stirred from her slumber, roused by the beeping machines
surrounding her. With great effort, she pried open her heavy eyelids, casting a weak glance at her
surroundings, the curtain shielding her from the room.
The familiar scent of disinfectant filled her nostrils, evoking a bitter sense of recognition. Suddenly, the
curtain was pulled aside, and Scott approached with a thermos in hand.
Upon noticing Caroline’s wakefulness, Scott inquired tenderly, “Caroline? Are you feeling any better?”
Caroline mustered the strength to move her lips, her voice hoarse. “Yeah.”
Scott placed the thermos on the bedside cabinet and took a seat beside her. “You should have listened
to me and rested more. Your anger caused you to faint in a fit.”

Caroline cast her gaze downward, fully aware of her condition. The events leading up to her fainting
were still vivid in her memory.
She vowed to seek revenge against Daniella, their feud burning within her, but now was not the
time. Once her mother’s funeral was concluded, she would gradually gather evidence.
Composing herself, Caroline asked in a calm tone, “The funeral…”
Scott gently interrupted her. “Your friend is handling it. Don’t worry. You can afford to rest for a while
longer before rushing back. And you need to eat now; otherwise, you’ll be too weak for the
burial tomorrow. Furthermore…”
Scott’s voice trailed off as he lowered his gaze, concealing the emotions that welled up in his eyes. He
added softly, “You should also consider the well–being of your baby, even if you don’t think of
yourself.
Caught off guard, Caroline looked at him, her expression one of astonishment. “You… you know?”
Scott nodded, a deep sense of bitterness evident. “The doctor conducted a comprehensive check-
up on you.”
Caroline pursed her lips, preparing to speak, when a familiar voice from nearby cut through the
air.
“Evan, I’m sorry. I’ve caused you trouble.”
The moment Caroline recognized the voice, her eyes filled with pure hatred. It’s was Daniella’s
disgusting voice!
Soon after, Evan’s subdued and hoarse voice reached Caroline’s ears. “Don’t ever do this again.”
Daniella sobbed. “Evan, do you trust me now? I didn’t kill Caroline’s mother.”
Evan’s tone turned colder. “Enough. Let’s not bring that up again.”
Caroline’s eyes dulled, while Scott looked at her with concern, uncertain of what he could say.
Undeterred, Daniella continued, her voice pleading, “Evan, I don’t mind if you investigate my past
with my foster parents. It’s normal for you to doubt me. But now, do you still doubt me?” @
After a brief pause, Evan asked, “Ella, what do you want from me?”
Daniella replied, “I just want to be with you. Even if you don’t care for me now, I want to stay by
your side.”
Evan stated firmly, “You were the one who saved me. Of course, I’ll fulfill that promise. Give me a

Scott let out a sigh, gently wiping away her tears. “Caroline, he isn’t deserving of your feelings.”
Caroline returned to the funeral grounds late in the night. Kneeling before her mother’s photograph,
she engaged in prayer. Her frail figure appeared feeble, yet she remained resolute. with her back
straightened.
“Mom, I feel useless. Please rest in peace. I will fulfill the promise I made to you… And I will find the
person who caused your sudden death. Give me time. I won’t let her escape punishment!”
The following morning, Katie was cremated and laid to rest.
Caroline sat in front of the tomb for a long while before making her way to Villa Rosa
Upon Caroline’s return, Lily approached her with concern evident in her voice. “Ms. Shenton, what
happened to you? You’ve become so thin.”
Lily’s worry resembled that of a caring mother. Suppressing her pain, Caroline forced a smile.
“Lily, I’ve come back to pack my belongings
Lily appeared bewildered. “Ms. Shenton, are you leaving?”
Caroline gently patted Lily’s shoulder, offering no further explanation, and turned to ascend the
stairs.
Evan was nowhere to be seen, and Lily made no effort to stop Caroline. She swiftly packed her
belongings into two suitcases.
