TRAPPED IN LOVE - Season 1 Episode 26

Paige turned around, glaring at Daniella. “What did you say? You better watch your tongue!”

Daniella responded to Paige’s glare with a disdainful glance, not taking her seriously at all.

She then walked over to Caroline while smiling sweetly and said, “Evan couldn’t stand that I was

living in a shabby place before this, so he bought me a house. I’m certain that he and I will

become a couple soon.”

Caroline chuckled and retorted, “So, you two aren’t a couple yet, huh?”

“Pfft…” Daniella’s smile froze as Paige burst into laughter.

“We’ll become a couple soon enough. In any case, I’m still getting much better treatment than you.

“Daniella mocked Caroline.

“Hmm, he bought me a house too,” Caroline replied indifferently before turning away and opening the

door.

Confusion replaced the smile on Daniella’s face. Meanwhile, Paige couldn’t contain her laughter. She

patted Daniella’s shoulders and clicking her tongue. “Stop making a fool of yourself. You look like a

clown.”

As Daniella watched Caroline and Paige enter their room, a sense of ruthlessness filled her eyes. once

again. She had gone to great lengths to secure a house, yet Caroline, a mistress, effortlessly obtained

one.

Gnashing her teeth, Daniella walked into her own room and took out her phone to make a call. “Hi, I

need your help…”

In Caroline’s room, Paige wasted no time in criticizing Daniella’s behavior as soon as she sat down.

Caroline, feeling quite sleepy, listened while Paige remained energized.

“So, Carol, what’s the deal between you and Evan now?” Paige asked eagerly.

Caroline rubbed her eyes. “It’s still the same.”

Paige probed further, “What? Hasn’t he found his long–lost love? Why isn’t he willing to let you go?”

Caroline shook her head in response, unsure of the answer herself.

Narrowing her eyes, Paige leaned closer to Caroline. “Is Mr. Jordan in love with you?”

Caroline immediately retorted, “That’s out of the question. He has cherished his first love for over ten

years. He won’t fall for me.”

Paige elaborated, “That’s not certain. Men’s actions often reveal their true feelings. Hasn’t he ever

Caroline stated, “No, he won’t discuss it.”

Paige was left speechless, unsure of how to respond.

Caroline received a call from Reuben the next morning just as she had woken up. He informed her to

be downstairs in ten minutes. Pushing the blanket aside, she quickly freshened up before heading

downstairs.

Evan was already seated in the lobby waiting for her.

The morning sunlight illuminated him through the French window, creating a halo of light around him.

He appeared noble and untouchable.

Caroline walked up to him, maintaining her usual calm tone. “Mr. Jordan.”

He didn’t even glance up at her, coldly responding. “Let’s go.”

Although Caroline was unsure of the reason for their trip to Florencia City, she didn’t question it. She

obediently entered the car with him, and he handed her a stack of documents.

“Take a look at this,” he instructed.

Caroline accepted the documents and quickly skimmed through them. A frown formed on her forehead.

“The profits stated in this contract don’t match the amount reported to the headquarters,

Her expression turned solemn as she read further. “They altered the profits. I’m certain it was your

relatives who had the audacity to do this right under your nose.”

Admiration flickered in Evan’s eyes. “You’re sharp,

Caroline hadn’t expected her guess to be so accurate. She was still unclear about Evan’s family

dynamics and his background. She knew the Jordan family wielded significant power and influence not

only in Angelbay City but throughout the entire Eurossian market.

In the next moment, she looked up at Evan and asked with doubt, “So, did you come here to change

the staff?”

Evan snorted and replied, “Do you think I came here for fun?”

Caroline fell silent. It seemed that he had brought her along to confront his relatives and make a

statement.

Half an hour later, they arrived at the subsidiary company.

As they stepped out of the car, Caroline noticed a nervous young man and Stefan Jamison, the deputy

manager, standing at the company’s entrance.

When they spotted Evan’s arrival, they quickly approached him.

The young man spoke subserviently, “Uncle Evan,

Evan nodded but didn’t spare him a glance as he entered the company building with a cold

expression.

Caroline walked alongside Evan, stealing a sideways glance at the young man who bore a slight

resemblance to Evan.

She had read about him during their journey–this young man was Mark Jordan, the son of Evan’s

brother. He was known for his recklessness and had a reputation for harassing the female secretaries

in the department. 1

If it weren’t for Stefan’s hard work in supporting the company, it might have already shut down.

Once they reached the president’s office, Caroline excused herself and headed toward the secretary’s

department. However, as she approached the door, she overheard hushed gossip

“Did Caroline become the principal secretary just because of her looks?”

“No, it’s more than that. I heard she’s having an affair with Mr. Jordan!”

“Of course, she’s not capable enough. She must have used her body to secure that position. We

don’t have to worry about her.”
