    Chapter 481 That’s My Business


    Caroline had no interest in engaging in small talk with him.


    “Why are you texting me? Caroline asked bluntly.


    Casey smiled but remained silent. He signaled the waitress, saying, “Can she have a coffee?”


    “I don’t want coffee. A lemon–infused water will do,” Caroline declined,


    The waitress nodded. “Of course.”


    Casey grinned and asked, “Are you in a hurry to leave?”


    Caroline looked at him coldly. “I still have a lot to do. Can you talk now?”


    Casey took a sip of his coffee, still smiling. “So, does this mean you won’t reach out to me unless I


    reach


    out to you first, Ms. Shenton?”


    “You should know I’m extremely busy, Mr. Jordan, Caroline replied with a slightly serious tone.


    Casey said, “I have a n to shut down MK’s clothing factory, but I need your help with something.”


    “What is it?” Caroline asked.


    Casey asked, “Do you think MK’s fashion designer will be useful if they deliver faulty products to their


    customers?”


    Caroline asked, “Why resort to dishonorable methods to defeat MK?


    “Do you have a better n?” Casey shot back.


    Caroline replied, “I can manage mypany’s affairs on my own. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be on my


    way.”


    Caroline grabbed her bag, preparing to leave.


    Casey spoke slowly. “It seems you don’t despise him as much as you im.”


    Caroline stopped and looked at him. “Just because I dislike him doesn’t mean I’d do something I’d


    regret for the rest of my life. Besides, it’s easy for Evan to discover the troublemaker. Going against him


    like this would be self–destructive.”


    She knew Casey’s intentions well. He wanted her to seek his help If Evan found out she was behind it,


    using this as leverage.


    I’m not falling for your trap, Casey, she thought.

    She contemted her predicament. If she declined Casey’s offer, he would be suspicious,


    making it harder to gather information when needed.


    Caroline reluctantly agreed. “Fine, but I have a question.”


    Casey said, “Go ahead.”


    Caroline asked, “What’s your rtionship with Danie?”


    Casey didn’t expect such a direct question. “Did you see us together?”


    “That’s my concern. Just answer the question, Caroline insisted.


    Casey admitted, “We’re just friends.”


    “Did you tell Danielle about your encounter with Jamie? Caroline asked.


    “Ms. Shenton, that’s your second question. If you want more answers, you’ll have to impress me during


    our date.” Casey teased with a twinkle in his eye.


    He stood up first, stating, “Il send you the date details. That wraps up our meeting for tonight.”


    With that, he left..
