    Hearing the scream, Lily hurried downstairs, her footsteps quickening as she spotted Danie’s return.


    Without hesitation, she approached her and spoke, “Ms. Love.”


    However, Danie fixed Lily with a fierce re. “You need to change the way you address me.”


    Lily’s fear was palpable as she stammered, “Ma… Madam.”


    Danie averted her gaze and demanded, “Where’s my supper?”


    “I’ll cook it now,” Lily replied, her voice filled with urgency.

    “Be more sensible! I need a nutritious meal, especially since I’m pregnant,” Danie snapped.


    With anger still lingering, Danie angrily sank into the sofa and questioned, “Where’s Evan?”


    “He’s not home yet,” Lily responded


    tter!


    Danie raised her hand and pushed away the fruits on the tea table. “Call him and inform him


    that I’m feeling sick. Ask him to conte home now.”


    Shuddering, Lily retrieved her phone and nodded, “Okay…”


    Evan was in the midst of arranging for Reuben to deliver food to Caroline when he caught sight of Scott


    out of the corner of his eye. Scott was approaching, carrying a bag.


    Evan narrowed his eyes, and as Scott reached his car, he rolled down the window.


    “Doctor Wilson.” Evan’s voice was icy.


    Scott halted and looked at Evan. “Mr. Jordan.”


    Evan nced at the food in Scott’s bag and sneered, “I see you’re very eager to take care of Caroline.


    Scott smiled. “Caroline won’t take good care of herself. As her friend, I should visit her more often.”


    “But it’s quite a distance from the hospital. Don’t you think it’s meddlesome?” Evan scoffed.


    Scott responded indifferently, “If you don’t find it meddlesome, why should I? Besides, I’ve transferred


    to a hospital in the countryside.”


    Evan pursed his thin lips, his expression tense.


    “Did you do that for Caroline?” he questioned.

    Scott faked a smile before he nodding. “Both she and I are single. Why not?”


    Coldly, Evan averted his gaze and stepped out of the car, clutching the takeout Reuben had purchased.


    He walked toward the stairs.


    Scott frowned, his voice low. “Mr. Jordan, you shouldn’t have made things difficult for Caroline.”


    Evan straightened his back and looked at Scott, his tone icy. “You have no right to meddle in that.”


    Scott caught up with Evan. “Mr. Jordan, it’s true that you can’t forget about Caroline, but your fiancée


    shouldn’t take it out on her. Caroline doesn’t deserve your fiancée’s rebukes because of


    you.” 1


    Evan snorted, dismissing Scott’s words, and proceeded into the corridor.


    Carrying the takeout, they arrived at Caroline’s door, where Evan knocked.


    Before long, Caroline opened the door, her surprise evident when she saw the two men wearing. grim


    expressions.


    Furrowing her brows, she asked, “Evan, are you bored?”


    Gloom clouded Evan’s face.


    This woman doesn’t do me any favors. Can’t she leave me a shred of dignity?”


    Suppressing his anger, he prepared to raise his hand, but his phone rang, interrupting the tense.


    moment


    Reluctantly, he retrieved his phone and answered the call. “Speak.”


    Lily’s voice trembled on the other end, “Sir, Ma… Madam is feeling sick.”


    The corridor was very quiet, so everyone could hear Lily’s voice from his phone.


    Caroline sneered and looked at Evan. “Evan, your fiancee is feeling sick. You should hurry home.”


    Evan ended the call and directed his displeased gaze at Caroline. After a prolonged pause, he


    turned to leave.


    Scott looked at Caroline, concern etched on his face, “Caroline, I…”


    Caroline shifted her body. “Come in. Paige will be here soon.”

    Scott sighed and walked into her house with the food.


    When Evan returned to Vi Rosa, he made his way upstairs and entered the room. Inside, he


    found Danie lying in bed, her face stained with tears.

    Upon seeing him, she quickly wiped her tears and sat up. “Evan, I’m sorry. I have a slight pain in my


    belly. Lily got worried and called you.”


    Her voice carried a mix of tenderness and sorrow.


    Evan approached the bed and sat beside her, his expression softening slightly. “Next time, ask Lily to


    call the family doctor if you’re feeling unwell.”


    Danie pursed her lips and nodded, then looked up at him with a careful gaze.


    “Evan, can you spend more time with me? I haven’t had much of an appetitetely.”


    “I have a lot of matters to attend to,” Evan replied, gently turning her down.


    Disappointment flickered in Danie’s eyes as she lowered her gaze, but a scheming glint soon shed


    across them.


    When she looked up again, her voice carried a hint of daze. “Evan, there’s something I want to tell


    you.”


    Evan nodded. “Go ahead.”


    “Master Xander mentioned that I bear a striking resemnce to histe daughter..


    Evan’s eyes narrowed slightly. “So, he invited you to his house more often?”


    Danie nodded, her nervousness apparent.


    “Evan, I won’t go if you dislike it.”

    “Just go if Evan said, rising from his seat.


    “It’ste now. Get some rest.”


    Seeing that he was about to leave, Danie quickly reached out and grabbed his hand.


    “Evan, can you stay with me tonight?”


    Evan’s expression darkened.


    “E, there are things I can offer you, but not everything. It would be wise for you to maintain a sense of


    propriety.”


    Danie was stunned as she watched Evan walk away.


    Gradually, her face contorted into a grotesque expression the moment the door closed.


    ‘So he won’t see me as long as Caroline is alive, huh? Or does he care about no one else but that


    bitch?‘


    Danie regained her cold and maliciousposure as she reached for her phone on the bedside
