“What were you thinking?!” The man’s voice pierced through Caroline’s thoughts, jolting her back. to reality.

She lifted her head, her expression filled with quilt. “I’m sorry. I couldn’t react in time.”

Seeing her guilty look, Evan’s anger seemed to dissolve, and he sighed. “Forget it, get in the car.”

Caroline nodded quietly and looked at the hospital from afar. Then, she followed him into the car.

As the engine roared to life, she mumbled softly, “Thank you.”

Evan removed his dirty coat without acknowledging her gratitude. There was a flicker of irritation in his beautiful eyes as he wondered, I rushed out without thinking to save Caroline at the first sign of danger. What’s wrong with me?

“Who do you think you might have offended lately?” He asked coldly, his tone filled with a hint of suspicion

Caroline shook her head, her brows furrowing. “I don’t know. Besides Mark, I can’t think of anyone else I might have offended.”

“He’s still bedridden, so it can’t be him.” Evan’s words crushed her speculation.

As they arrived at Villa Rosa, they continued to speculate on their own.

Soon after, Reuben arrived with news. “Mr. Jordan, we found him. The car owner is a man named Jared Walker.”

Evan loosened his tie, his gaze focused “Bring him here.”

“Yes, Sir!” Reuben responded and left the villa to fetch Jared Walker.

Half an hour later, a man with a pale complexion was brought in by two bodyguards. Caroline was sitting at the table, drinking the nutritious soup Lily had prepared. She observed the man, 1 who seemed around 50.

“I don’t know anything, Sir! I really don’t! I didn’t even touch the car today!” the man blurted out in fear as soon as he saw Evan.

Evan’s eyes were sharp as an eagle’s as he leaned forward. “Did someone borrow your car?”

The middle–aged man shook his head frantically. “No, no! My wife can vouch for me!”

Evan raised his hand, and one of the bodyguards stepped forward, kicking the man in the belly.

The man collapsed onto the ground, writhing in pain, while Caroline watched with a mixture of

shock and unease

Despite witnessing the man’s suffering, she couldn’t find it in herself to feel pity. After all, Evan and she had nearly lost their lives because of this man’s actions.

“I’ll cripple your arm if you don’t start talking.” Evan said coldly, his voice filled with resolve.

The man, drenched in cold sweat, pleaded, “I really don’t know, Sir! I swear, I don’t!”

Evan scoffed, his frustration evident. “If you don’t know, then why did you start explaining as soon as you came in? Did I ask you about your car? Or did my men ask you something about it?”

The man’s face turned pale, and he stammered while clutching his belly, “I… I…”

Seeing the man’s stubbornness, Evan glanced at the bodyguard. “Do it.”

“I’ll tell you!!!” the man screamed frantically. “But please, show mercy to my family and kids!”

“You have no right to negotiate terms,” Evan declared firmly.

The man sat on the ground, defeated. “I don’t know the man. He offered me 7,000 dollars to borrow my car, a sum I couldn’t possibly earn by selling that old vehicle. I let my greed cloud my judgment, so I agreed to his request without questioning further. But he made it clear that my family’s lives were at stake if I dared to speak a word to anyone.”

“Do you remember what he looked like?” Reuben asked, hoping for a clue.

The middle–aged man furrowed his brow, recalling the encounter. “He had a mask and a cap on but his eyes… His eyes were fierce, triangular.”

Caroline sighed softly, realizing that it would be difficult to track down the culprit with such limited information.

Feeling powerless to intervene, she excused herself and went upstairs after finishing the soup.

Meanwhile, at the International Residence in Angelbay City, Daniella sat on the couch, seething with anger. She glared at Nic and confronted him. “You could have kidnapped her! Why did you have to do that? What if you had harmed Evan?”

Nic, visibly upset, raised his voice. “Are you falling in love with him or something?”

Caught off guard, Daniella quickly changed her tone, trying to diffuse the tension “How could you say that, Nic? I’m just worried about our future.”

He scoffed, his frustration evident. “I hope that’s the case, otherwise, don’t blame me for what I do

next!”

Suppressing her anger, she clenched her teeth and spoke through gritted teeth. “I got it, Nic. But. since the mission failed this time, it won’t be easy the next time.” ”

“What’s the rush? We have plenty of options. But we can’t kidnap her.”

Daniella pondered for a moment before a realization struck him. “Oh yeah, I remember her mother is in the hospital.”

Confused, he asked, “What do you mean?”

She leaned closer to him, sharing her thoughts. As she finished explaining, he burst into laughter, reaching out to grab her breasts.

“I love it when you’re ruthless and cunning!” he exclaimed, flipping her over and pressing against

her.

She wrapped her arms around his neck. As the couch started shaking, she closed her eyes and willed herself to imagine him as Evan.

Amidst their intense entanglement, her moans filled the room, a symphony of her private desires.
