    Chapter 113 What Is She Trying to Do


    Caroline put down her phone, her expression displeased. She wondered, “What the heck is


    Danie trying to do?”


    While Danie often knew things, Caroline couldn’t understand why she chose to share this


    information with her.


    The location of Dn’s Cafe on Sail Road was usually busy, so Caroline assumed that Danie


    wouldn’t cause any trouble in public, despite her boldness.


    By the time Caroline finished handling her matters, it was already 7:30 p.m. She waited for Evan to


    return home for half an hour, but he didn’t show up. Concerned, she headed to Lily’s room.


    Noticing the light on from under the door, Caroline knocked, and Lily opened it promptly.


    “Why are you still awake?” Lily asked while getting a ss of water for Caroline.


    Caroline pursed her lips and replied, “I’ll be heading out tomorrow, Lily.”


    “Away?” Lily seemed surprised. “Aren’t you worried about those two families?”


    “I am,” Caroline said. “And I was nning on telling Evan, but he’s still not home. I don’t think he’ll be


    back tonight.”


    Lily sighed. “Mr. Jordan’s expression didn’t look right when he left this morning.”


    Caroline wasn’t overly concerned about Evan’s whereabouts. She was troubled by what Danie


    might reveal the next day.


    After informing Lily, Caroline returned to her room, charged her voice recorder, washed up, and


    went to sleep.


    The next morning, Caroline woke up to her rm clock. She went downstairs after getting ready and


    was met by Lily.


    “Oh, Carol. Mr. Jordan didn’te backst night.”


    Caroline nodded. “It’s fine. I’ll get in touch with himter.”


    Lily didn’t say more, and Caroline left the house after breakfast, using a ride–share service to head


    to the cafe


    She found Danie sitting leisurely by herself on the second floor, sipping water next to a window.


    Caroline turned on the voice recorder in her pocket and sat down across from Danie.

    Danie nced at her and said, “Order whatever you want.”


    Caroline signaled the waitress and ordered a ss of lemon–infused water. She asked coldly, “Tell me


    what you know.”


    “Don’t rush it,” Danie replied, cing her ss down. “Let’s discuss the terms first.”


    Caroline inquired, “Is it to get me to leave Evan?”This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    “Yes.” Danie nodded. “You’ve been through hardships before, so you know the consequences of


    provoking the two families.”


    “Do you think they’ll stop targeting me if I leave?” Caroline asked calmly.


    Danie’s expression turned slightly gloomy. “You don’t sound like you’re nning to leave.”


    Caroline took a sip of water and replied, “After weighing the pros and cons, I’ve concluded that being


    with him provides the greatest level of protection for my children.”


    Caroline was observing Danie’s expression and was taken aback when she smirked.


    Feeling uncertain about Danie’s intentions, Caroline grew restless. She asked with a serious


    expression, “Aren’t you nning to tell me?”


    Suddenly, Caroline’s vision swayed twice, and her voice faded. She grabbed the table to steady


    herself and shook her head.


    “It seems to be taking effect rather quickly.” Danie smirked coldly.


    Caroline widened her eyes, looking at Danie in shock. “What did you do?”


    Danie stood up, approached Caroline slowly, and leaned over. “Do you think you’re safe because


    you’re in public? It’s a waste that I switched out the staff of this cafe with Master Jordan’s help
