    Chapter 459 Too Rational


    Scott casually mentioned, I nced back before leaving and remember seeing Carol p Evan.”


    “What? She pped that scumbag?” Kenny eximed.


    Neil nodded. “She believed Lily’s passing was closely linked to Evan.”


    “I’d think the same if I were in her shoes, given that my bossmissioned the medical team,”


    Paige said between bites of her food.


    The group turned their attention to Paige.


    Paige, feeling bewildered, asked, “Why are you all looking at me?”


    “Women think straightforwardly. If the scumbag wanted revenge on Caroline, he wouldn’t use


    such an obvious tactic,” Kenny remarked.


    Scott added, “Vital signs can drop during surgery, resulting in death.”


    Neil chimed in. True, mishaps ur, but we can’t rule out the possibility of tampering.”


    Kenny looked perplexed. “You make it sound so mysterious. Have you been reading too many


    mystery novels?”


    Neil asked, “What do you mean?”


    Kenny put down his spoon and rified, “The hospital belongs to the scumbag. The person must


    be skilled to attempt something in his presence. ording to your theory, they likely have a


    grudge against him and aim to involve him with Carol.”


    Paige gasped. “In that case, Danie seems the most motivated.”


    Neil disagreed, “I don’t think she’s capable of this.”


    Paige retorted, “What do you mean? She’s even capable of hiding a murder.”


    Kenny, shocked, asked, “A murder? How did I miss this?”


    The group collectively judged Kenny for being so uninformed.


    Scott cautioned, “Don’t make unfounded spections without evidence.”


    Paige sighed in Scott’s direction. “You’re too forgiving.”

    Scott rified, “Strong evidence speaks louder. I’m just analyzing objectively.”


    Neil observed Scott and wondered why he remained so impartial when someone he loved had


    been hurt in these incidents.


    Did Scott have a unique perspective or hidden intentions?


    Scott seemed to notice Neil’s gaze, so he met Neil’s eyes and smiled calmly. “Do you find me too


    rational?”


    Neil looked away, unsure of what experiences had made Scott so analytical.


    Scott continued. “Maybe I’ve seen too much death and separation.”


    Neil yed with his mug, pondering Scott’s cryptic statement. He found Scott hard to read but hoped


    he was the kind and pure–hearted person he appeared to be.


    After dinner, Paige went home, and Neil left for some work matters. Kenny entertained the two children


    while Scott delivered a meal cooked by Eira to Caroline.


    He knocked on her door.


    Caroline’s hoarse voice invited him in.


    Scott entered and frowned as he saw Caroline curled up on the sofa. He ced the food tray on the


    coffee table. “You should eat.”


    “I don’t feel like eating,” Caroline replied apathetically.


    Scott sat beside her and offered gently, “Would you like to hear a story?”


    Caroline looked at him and agreed, “Sure.”


    Scott picked up a ss of water and began, “When I was five, I witnessed my mother threaten my


    father with her own death for abandoning us. I’ll never forget the look in my father’s eyes. He


    watched my mother hold a knife to her wrist without a trace of pity. In fact, his eyes were filled


    with contempt and disgust.”
