    “Are you getting engaged to him just because of my thing with Danie?” Evan asked, his


    disappointment


    evident. “Is this your way of getting back at me? And you haven’t even heard my side of the story!”


    Caroline sneered. “Exnation? Where were you when I needed to hear it? Why should I be led


    around by


    you?”


    “Danie and I-‘


    “Right, Danie isn’t a good person, just like Casey to you, right? If you can be with someone like him,


    why


    can’t I?”


    “Let me finish! Danie and I are associating because of Axel!” Evan shouted in frustration.


    Caroline looked stunned, her expression turning anxious. “Axel? What happened to him?”


    Evan gritted his teeth. “Axel was diagnosed with leukemia, and Danie found the bone marrow that


    saved his life. I agreed to let her stay and take care of him until he recovers.”


    “L–Leukemia?!”


    Caroline’s knees weakened, and Evan hastily caught her, pain in his eyes. He knew Caroline might.


    struggle to ept this but had no choice but to tell her now. Otherwise, Caroline might get engaged to


    Casey.


    Caroline grabbed Evan’s arm as she regained herposure, asking anxiously, “How is Axel now? Is


    he


    okay?”


    “He’s in protective istion, but he’ll be allowed to leave before the Mardi Gras parades,” Evan replied.

    Caroline’s eyes welled up with tears. “Why didn’t you tell me sooner?”


    Evan tightly pursed his lips. “You were already under a lot of pressure, and I didn’t want to add to it.”


    “What gives you the right to decide that?! That’s my son we’re talking about!” Caroline’s tone grew


    more


    ferocious.


    “I’m sorry. I nned to tell you after Axel fully recovered,” Evan said quiltily.


    “All you ever do is n! Why is it always about what you want? Have you ever asked me? Have you


    respected me? Axel is my son, and I’m not there when he needs me the most. Yet, you allowed


    someone who hurt him to stay and take care of him! Evan, you’re heartless! Why do you always make


    decisions for


    me?”

    Evan weakly withdrew his arms. “I was wrong, but I have no rtionship with Danie.”


    Caroline scoffed. “No rtionship? Are you still trying to make excuses? If Danie can find a matching


    bone marrow, why can’t you?”


    “I couldn’t find a suitable match in time,” Evan admitted, his gaze dimming as he clenched his fists.


    That’s why I had to turn to Danie.”


    Caroline was filled with disbelief. You have a powerful family business and couldn’t find a suitable


    donor?


    Evan didn’t know how to exin, so he changed the subject. 1 can ask Danie to leave, but can you


    stop


    interacting with Casey?”


    Caroline countered, “You get to do what you want, so why can’t I?”


    Evan’s expression turned cold. “Must you be like this?”


    Caroline walked past Evan and grabbed her bag. I’m going to see Axel. You can leave.”


    Evan called after her, “You won’t be able to see him! He’ll be in protective istion for a month!


    Caroline left the office determined, stating before she went, ‘I’m going to check on his condition with the


    doctor.


    She couldn’t stay any longer–she was afraid she might reveal Casey’s threat if she did.


    She didn’t want to continue arguing with Evan over Casey. It would be meaningless since the


    engagement


    was fake.


    In frustration, Evan pounded his fist on Caroline’s desk.
