Chapter 54 Whose Child Would He Keep

Stunned, Caroline stared at Daniella, her voice filled with disbelief as she asked, “What nonsense

are you talking about?”

Daniella responded with a smile. “Why are you so nervous? Is there really something to be nervous

about?”

The smile quickly disappeared from her face, replaced by a coldness in her eyes.

“How shameless are you to get pregnant with my boyfriend’s child? But don’t worry, I spread that

news online about you putting your father in jail to punish you, and that punishment is just the

beginning.”

Caroline struggled to control the resentment boiling inside her. “Daniella, aren’t you afraid of

karma? Aren’t you scared that my mom will haunt you in your dreams and take your life there?”

Daniella raised even handle me when she

was alive, let alone in her afterlife.”

Caroline’s heart felt like it would burst. She yearned to tear Daniella apart.

But her rational side warned her against it.

Touching Daniella would only give her ammunition to complain to Evan

She was deliberately provoking Caroline, waiting for her to fall into her trap.

Taking a deep breath, Caroline suppressed her anger. She wore a mocking smile on her lips. “So, Daniella, are you officially with Evan now?”

“I’ll be his fiancee in 20 days.”

“And what is your relationship with him now?”

“We’re a couple, of course.”

“Is that a title you’ve given all on your own?” Caroline mocked. “Because he told me there is

nothing going on between you two!”

Daniella’s expression changed. “Don’t lie to me!”

“We’re still living together, isn’t that proof enough?” Caroline replied, her smile cryptic.

Daniella’s face twisted in anger. “Even if we’re not together now, we will be in the future!

“I can’t say as much for you! You know Evan and I will end up together eventually, yet you’re still

clinging to him with those slutty claws of yours. Who’s the real bitch here?!”

“He’s single, I’m single. Is it wrong for adults to pursue what they want?”

“You!” Daniella glared fiercely at her.

But moments later, a smile crept onto Daniella’s face. “Caroline, how long do you think you can revel in this? The title of Mrs. Jordan will be mine eventually. That’s enough for me.

“Oh, and yes, Evan has been sleeping with you for three years, but he has never promised you anything.”

“It’s different for me. We only slept together once, and he’s marrying me.”

Caroline felt her energy drain away. Her body grew weak.

They… slept together?

Daniella’slowly lowered herself, staring into Caroline’s eyes, searching for any sign of weakness.

With a bright smile, she asked, “Tell me, if I’m pregnant, whose child do you think he would choose to keep?”

It took Caroline a long time to snap back to reality after Daniella left.

She clutched her chest, feeling herself crumble.

It was only a matter of time before Evan and Daniella would be together. She had prepared herself

to let go of Evan and give him to Daniella. But why did her heart ache so intensely at those words?

In the following days, Evan was nowhere to be seen. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Caroline was taken care of by either Lily, Scott, or Paige during her stay in the hospital.

She asked Lily to bring her laptop, insisting on drawing despite the pain she held back for five

days.

On the sixth day, she was discharged from the hospital.

Scott insisted on driving her home since the wound on her forehead had yet to heal.

Upon reaching the entrance of Villa Rossa, he stepped out of the car to assist her with her bags in

the boot-

As they stood at the entrance, Scott offered a gentle reminder. “Make sure water doesn’t touch

your wound, or it might get infected. And with the weather turning cold, try to stay home. Your

work is important, but taking care of your body should be a priority.”

Caroline nodded like a good girl. “I understand. Thank you for everything.”

Scott’s gentle eyes reflected a sense of helplessness. “Caroline, I know there are things I shouldn’t say, but as your friend, I have to remind you that you can’t keep your pregnancy a secret for long. If you don’t plan on telling him, you should consider leaving him. I…”

“Doctor Wilson!” Caroline lifted her head and interrupted him, offering a light smile. Thank you for keeping my secret.”

He pursed his lips, gazing at her face for a while.

Then, he reached out to touch the gauze on her forehead.

Caroline instinctively pulled back, her guard up.

He forced a smile. “It’s not sticking properly.”

Blushing, Caroline quickly took the bag from his hand. Thanks for driving me home. Goodbye for

now!”

Watching her enter the house, Scott finally turned to leave.

Unbeknownst to him, Evan, who had just returned from a business trip, witnessed the encounter.

Rage flashed between his dark eyebrows, and a terrifying coldness emanated from him.

Reuben sighed as he peeped at the rearview mirror. What an ill–fated relationship

Shortly after Caroline entered her room, heavy footsteps echoed through the corridor.

The door swung open, revealing Evan, his face grim.

Setting down the clothes she was holding, Caroline spoke with a flat tone. Evan.”

As she was speaking, Evan strode toward her and gripped her chin tightly.

His voice sounded icy. “Caroline! Are you trying to provoke me?”
