Chapter 56 She Forgot Her Phone

+15 BONUS

Caroline found herself at a loss for words in that moment. The weight of Neil’s melancholy had

permeated the air since they had stepped foot into the villa. The overwhelming sadness was

suffocating for her.

“My parents have passed away. I’m left with only my younger sister, but she’s currently missing.” Neil

confessed, his voice heavy with grief.

As he finished speaking, he reached for a photo album on the shelf and handed it to Caroline. “I believe

these pictures will help you understand and perhaps alleviate the hostility between us.”

Caroline accepted the album and began flipping through its pages. She saw numerous photos of a

woman and a little girl. As she continued, a sense of guilt washed over her.

her was It seemed that Neil had not been lying before. The resemblance between her and his striking,

and even more so with the little girl. The only difference was that Caroline had a mother,

and it wasn’t the woman in the photos.

Caroline returned the album, realizing her misunderstanding. “I misunderstood you last time. I’m sorry,

and I genuinely hope you find your sister soon.”

Neil stared blankly at her for a moment before nodding. “If you don’t have a place to go, you can

stay here.”

Staying in a stranger’s home was something Caroline couldn’t easily adjust to. “Could I borrow your

phone, Mr. Xander?” she asked Neil.

He handed her his phone. “Don’t call me ‘Mr. Xander. Please, just call me by my name.”

Caroline smiled lightly and dialed Paige’s number.

After a brief conversation, she returned the phone to Neil. “My friend will pick me up. Thank you.”

In just over ten minutes, Paige arrived at Neil’s house. Caroline bid Neil farewell and got into

Paige’s car.

“Carol, who was that handsome man?” Paige’s eyes lit up with curiosity.

“He’s Neil Xander, the eldest son of the Xander family,” Caroline replied.

Paige stopped questioning after learning he was from one of the three most prestigious families.

As Paige started the car engine, she asked, “What happened? Where’s your phone?”

Caroline’s mood turned melancholic. “I stormed out after a fight with Evan and forgot my phone.”

Paige was taken aback. “Caroline, are you already suffering from ‘pregnant brain“?” Caroline glared at

her, irritated. “Paige, can you help me find a house in the suburbs?”

“You’ve made up your mind?” Paige was surprised. “Are you really not going to pursue the boss?”

Caroline forced a smile. “If you were in my position, would you steal a man who’s had sex with

someone else?”

Paige’s eyes widened. “Are you telling me that the pretentious woman has slept with the boss?”

“That’s what she claimed. Considering they’re about to get engaged soon, it’s time for us to completely

separate.”

Paige suddenly stopped the car and looked at Caroline seriously. “As your good friend, I feel obligated

to remind you of something. The child doesn’t belong to you alone. No matter what, you need to find

out how he feels about it. If he doesn’t want it, I’ll help you find a house. If he does, I

can’t interfere.”

Caroline looked down, knowing Paige was right, but she couldn’t bring herself to face it. She was afraid

of hearing terrible things, and even more afraid that Evan would become suspicious and

force her into an abortion. 1

“What are you hesitating about, Carol?” Paige persisted.

Caroline’s expression grew sorrowful. “I can’t bear to lose my child, and I won’t use the child to gain

something that doesn’t rightfully belong to me.”

The child was her only family in the world now, and she wouldn’t let anyone harm it.

“Test him, but don’t tell him,” Paige suggested.

“…let’s see.”

The next morning, Paige and Caroline headed to the office together. Caroline had spent the entire night

contemplating her decision, and as soon as she arrived, she began typing out her resignation letter on

the computer.

Leaving Evan once and for all seemed like the best way to sever ties with him.

Half an hour later, she finally printed the letter she had composed.

Just as Caroline was about to place the letter on Evan’s desk, Daniella’s voice echoed outside the

door.

“Evan, what would you do if Ms. Shenton is pregnant with your child?”

Caroline froze upon hearing the question, her face turning pale.

Evan’s response cut through her heart like a knife. “I won’t allow a mistress to bear my child.” Sadness

washed over her, accepting that a dishonorable mistress had no right to carry his child. Suddenly, the

office door swung open, revealing Evan and Daniella standing there.

There was a hint of mockery in Daniella’s eyes as she smiled. “You’re early, Ms. Shenton.”

Suppressing her emotions, Caroline retorted, “How else would I know that Ms. Love is so interested in

my personal life?”

Daniella put on a pitiful look and turned to Evan. “I’ll take my leave now, Evan.”

He nodded coldly.

After the door closed, Caroline approached him and handed him her resignation letter. “Evan, after

everything we’ve been through in the past three years, I’m begging you one last time to let me go.”

Evan looked down, his face darkening as he noticed the word “resignation” on the envelope.

“You disappeared all night and now you give me this without any explanation?”

Caroline looked at him expressionlessly. “Would my explanation change anything?”

If her explanations were effective, would he still doubt her repeatedly?

He squinted and stepped closer to her. “So, you’re willing to abandon your resentments for the sake of

another man. I was wrong about you, Caroline.”
