Chapter 84 I Can Only Give Her Status and Money

Caroline smiled. “You’re so generous, Evan. Aren’t you worried that I might clash with Daniella

when I see her?”

Evan narrowed his eyes, his gaze fixed on her red lips. “Don’t force me to silence you, Caroline.”

She was rendered speechless. It was best for her to keep her mouth shut when dealing with a man driven by high testosterone.

After he left, she made her way to her old desk.

Her hand gently caressed the stationery she had used for the past three years. Memories of her hard work and dedication played in her mind.

Before Daniella came into the picture, she had naively believed that she would be with Evan for a long time.

Unfortunately, her childish fantasies were shattered by reality.

She sniffled softly, composing herself. Then she left the desk and headed to the secretary’s office.

However, just as she left, Daniella appeared in the corridor.

She knocked on Evan’s door, holding a bag in her hand

Although her gaze was on the door, she kept a keen eye on the security camera hanging in the

corridor.

Realizing that the room was empty, she entered

She knew Evan’s schedule like the back of her hand. That was why she chose to come today.

Approaching the desk, she placed some snacks on it.

Then, her eyes shifted toward the document cabinet on the side. She walked over while licking

her lips out of anxiety.

In the secretary’s office, Caroline’s presence stirred excitement among the younger secretaries, who eagerly chatted with her.

They even vented their frustrations about the boss to her.

Caroline responded to each one of them with a smile. Meanwhile, Ms. Walker and Ms. Fisher, who were not far away, rolled their eyes in annoyance.

“Did you see how arrogant that bitch is? Acting like the office can’t function without her!” Ms. Walker remarked.

Ms. Fisher was taken aback by Caroline’s return. “Is she actually back to work?!”

“Shut up! How am I supposed to get promoted if she’s back?” Ms. Walker grumbled

Ms. Fisher pouted. “Let’s be honest here, we’re just jealous of her. Jealous of her competence and the fact that she gets to sleep with Mr. Jordan”

Ms. Walker glared at her angrily. “So now you’re suddenly enlightened? Aren’t you jealous too?”

Ms. Fisher scoffed. During Caroline’s absence, she had seen things clearly. It was true that Caroline’s personal capabilities surpassed everyone else’s.

She would never forget how chaotic the secretary’s office became in those two days that Caroline

was gone.

At 5 p.m., when Evan returned, he noticed a crowd gathered around Caroline. They were all observing her work.

Seeing how engrossed she was in her tasks, he made his way to his office.

Upon entering the room, he found Daniella curled up on the couch, apparently resting Snacks

were placed on his desk.

Instinctively, he frowned. How long had she been lying there?

He approached her and called out her name in his deep voice. “Daniella.”

He called three times before she slowly opened her eyes.

Startled, she sat up when she saw him. “I’m sorry, Evan I

“If you’re tired, go home,” Evan interrupted, looking away as he walked toward his desk. “Don’t

wait for me.”

Daniella quickly grasped her phone from her pocket and stood up. She cautiously looked up at

him and asked, “Are you going home for dinner?”

He glanced at her with a flat expression. “No, I’ll have the driver take you home.”

Sadness filled her eyes. “It’s alright, I’ll take a taxi.”

His voice grew deeper. “It’s not safe…”

Knock! Knock!

A knock sounded at the door just as he spoke. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Caroline entered the room after he gave her permission.

She glanced at Daniella, who was holding a bag, before turning her attention to Evan. “I thought we were having dinner together?”

Daniella looked at the man before her in disbelief.

He rejected her invitation because of Caroline?

Who exactly was his fiancee?!

Her face paled from anger, but she dared not lash out in front of him.

She could only suppress her emotions and leave the office…

Once Daniella was gone, Evan coldly questioned Caroline. “Did you do that on purpose?

Caroline admitted proudly, “Yes, I’m delighted to see her being defeated. If it pains you, you can go

after her

“Caroline, would you believe me if I said there are no feelings between her and 17” Evan explained,

his tone serious.

“Don’t tell me you’re repaying her favor by giving her a status? And you’re keeping someone you actually like out there?” Caroline’s questions were sharp and direct.

“I can only give her status and financial support. Nothing more,” Evan clarified.

“I don’t want to know the details of your relationship! All I know is that she’s pregnant with your

child!”

Evan squinted at her mention of that. “Caroline, did you come to my room on the night of the

annual dinner?”

“What difference does it make? You slept with her anyway!” Caroline retorted.
