    “Can’t you call me from a safe ce?” Evan asked.


    He controlled his emotions and spoke coldly. “What do you want from me?”

    Caroline noticed Evan’s change and frowned. “Are you hiding something from me?”


    Evan snapped, “No! Just talk!”


    Caroline pleaded, “Can you let me speak with Axel?”


    “No!” Evan firmly refused.


    Caroline couldn’t lose her temper with Evan, knowing he had saved her and Liora from a dangerous


    situation.


    She said, “If possible, please let me talk to him. I miss Axel so much.”


    Evan was moved by the sight of Caroline’s teary eyes.


    Axel was in protective istion after his bone marrow transnt. Evan believed Caroline wouldn’t be


    as stressed if she learned the truth now.


    Evan was about to say something when Caroline’s phone rang.


    She answered the call and said, “What is it, Kenny?”


    Kenny asked, “Where are you? Did you leave thepany so early?”


    Caroline replied, “I wanted to spend some time with Lia. How can I assist you?”


    Kenny said, “Never mind then. I’ll head home, too. The goods will be delivered to thepany in the


    afternoon,”

    “Nothing.” Evan replied coldly.


    He decided not to tell Caroline about Axel. She was about to leave for Mount Zenya, and he wanted to


    prevent her from getting distracted and putting herself in danger,


    Caroline sighed. “Alright, I should get going now. Please take care of Axel.”


    Caroline turned and left shortly after.


    Evan walked to his car, and Reuben said, “Sir, it was wise of you to stop the car earlier. Otherwise, Ms.


    Shenton might have been on her way to the hospital now.”


    Evan gave Reuben a stern look. “Please refrain from speaking if you can’t do it properly!”


    Reuben was stunned and quickly fell silent, realizing he had sounded disrespectful toward Caroline. He


    started the car and nced at Evan’s expression in the rearview mirror.


    “You don’t look well, sir, Reuben remarked.


    Evan stared out the window, unable to shake the image of Caroline’s dejected expression when she


    spoke about Axel.


    “Do you think I’m protecting her by not telling her about Axel? Evan asked in a low voice.


    “In my opinion, yes. However, Ms. Shenton has a right to know as well,” Reuben replied.


    “What if I were to tell her after Axel is discharged from the hospital?” Evan asked.


    “I think Ms. Shenton might be upset, given her personality,” Reuben exined.


    Evan closed his eyes slowly and contemted how he would break the news to her when she returned


    from Mount Zenya. He didn’t want to see her be overwhelmed by Axel’s situation.


    He couldn’t move on from her, and he had cared about her subtle emotions for a long time.


    Caroline returned home at noon with snacks that Liora enjoyed.
