back, offering herfort. A surge of anger reced the initial ache in Evan’s heart, causing his
fists to clench tightly at his sides.

Caroline lowered her head quietly, seemingly unaffected by Danie’s presence and words.
Danie snorted and squatted down, feigningfort as she whispered, “Caroline, there’s no pity
in my heart for you. In fact, I believe you deserve every bit of this suffering. You attempt to steal

Scott approached Caroline and supported her by holding her arm, while casting a somber look at
Danie. “Please leave,” he said firmly.
Infuriated, Danie bit her lip and retorted, “How ungrateful you all are! Caroline, you’ve lost your mind.
