    Reuben gazed at Caroline and spoke. “Mr. Jordan isn’t that kind of person, Ms. Shenton. You

    “Mr. Jordan invested a lot of manpower and money intomissioning the medical team. You’ve


    crossed a line today, Ms. Shenton.”


    With those words, Reuben departed.


    Caroline stood in front of the tombstone, silent.


    She thought, Have I gone too far? I wanted to believe that you intended to save Lily willingly, too.


    Yet, Lily died during the surgery performed by the doctors you hired! You won’t even swear to it.


    How can I trust that your conscience is clear?’


    After some time, Caroline walked toward Katie’s tombstone, cing the bouquet she had prepared


    before it. She retrieved a tissue and used it to clean the tombstone.


    “Mom, I’m here. Do you me me for not visiting in so long?” Caroline managed a weak smile. “I


    changed my name and hid for five years abroad. I’m a fashion designer now, with a few small

    you next time, okay?” and intelligent grandchildren. I’ll bring them to visi


    Caroline looked at Katie’s name on the tombstone, her eyes welling with tears. “Mom, please forgive


    me for not visiting. I haven’t yet defeated my enemies, so I don’t have the courage to face

    response within him.


    “Mr. Jordan, Ms. Shenton’s words may be harsh due to her overwhelming sadness,” Reuben said,


    feeling uneasy.

    “I believe Ms. Shenton wants to understand why you never trusted her,” Reuben said. “Mr. Jordan,

    Kenny took off his jacket and approached Paige, who was eating heartily. “What’s going on with


    G? Is she still grieving?”


    Paige rolled her eyes at Kenny before turning to Neil. “Can you please exin to this clueless guy.


    Neil?”


    Neil rified, “Lily was just buried. Caroline can’t move on from the grief so quickly. Besides,


    there’s more than just grief on her mind.”


    The puzzled Kenny asked, “What else?”


    He sat down and took a hearty gulp of the soup. His eyes widened in delight. This tastes amazing!”


    Eira chuckled. “Thank you for thepliment.”
