TRAPPED IN LOVE - Season 1 Episode 9

At eight o’clock in the evening, Caroline sent the updated schedule to Evan before leaving the office.

As she stepped out, she noticed Reuben waiting by the car.

Seeing Caroline, Reuben approached her and said, “Mr. Jordan asked me to send you back to rest.”

Caroline declined, “No need. I’ll go home on my own.”

Reuben hesitated before continuing, “Ms. Shenton, there’s something I’m not sure I should tell you.”

Caroline looked up, her voice weak as she replied, “Go ahead.”

“Mr. Jordan knows that you’re sick, so he specially hired an attendant to take care of you, and that

person is already waiting at Villa Rosa.”

Caroline furrowed her brow. What was his intention?

Did he want to be with Daniella while continuing their relationship?

Caroline sneered inwardly. She would never stoop so low as to agree to share a husband with another

woman!

Just as she was about to refuse again, Reuben lowered his voice and added, “Ms. Shenton, Ms. Love’s

identity has not been confirmed yet. Are you sure you don’t want to fight for yourself?”

Caroline let out a bitter laugh. “Reuben, in this day and age, money holds more importance than

relationships.”

After saying this, Caroline walked around Reuben and left.

Sighing, Reuben got into the car. He glanced at his superior sitting behind him and reported, “Mr.

Jordan, Ms. Shenton is unwilling to go back.”

Evan pursed his lips tightly and spoke solemnly, “Then there’s no need for her to go back! Tomorrow,

throw out all her belongings and make sure she disappears as far away as possible!”

Reuben replied, “Yes…” with a heavy heart.

The next day arrived.

Caroline was awakened by a knock on the door. She got up, went to open it, and found Reuben

standing there with two large cardboard boxes.

Caroline understood what was inside. She looked down for a moment, then silently moved the boxes

inside.

Once that was done, Caroline stood upright and said in an indifferent tone, “Thank you, Reuben. I don’t

have any food or snacks to offer you, so I won’t keep you.”

Reuben opened his mouth to say something, but before he could speak, Caroline closed the door

mercilessly.

When he returned to Villa Rosa, Reuben informed Evan, who was drinking coffee on the sofa, “Mr.

Jordan, Ms. Shenton’s belongings have been sent back.”

Evan did not say anything. He put down his coffee and continued flipping through the contract in his

hands.

Reuben couldn’t help but speak up, “Mr. Jordan, about where Ms. Shenton lives…”

Before he could finish, Evan’s phone suddenly rang.

Evan put the phone on speaker, and Daniella’s light laughter filled the room. “Evan, let’s skip going out

for lunch today. I’ve prepared something delicious for you.”

Evan’s expression softened. “What delicious food did you make?”

Hearing their conversation, Reuben couldn’t help but feel that it was a good thing Ms. Shenton didn’t

return.

After ending the call, Evan glanced at Reuben. “How’s the investigation on Daniella going?”

Reuben replied, “I’ve already contacted Daniella’s adoptive parents. We should receive news soon.”

Evan narrowed his eyes. Although Daniella could recall the past events, her personality now seemed

completely different from what he remembered.

He wanted to uncover what had happened to her all these years.

The moment Caroline entered her office, she looked through the glass separating her office and Evan’s

office, and noticed Daniella sitting in Evan’s office.

Just then, Daniella happened to look up and saw Caroline.

A smile appeared in her eyes as she picked up the thermos lunch box on the table in front of her and

approached Caroline’s office.

“Ms. Shenton, this is for you.”

Caroline’s gaze landed on the lunch box, she calmly replied, “Thank you, Ms. Love, but I’ve already

eaten.”

Ignoring Caroline’s response, Daniella proceeded to place the lunch box on the desk.

Then, she sat down in front of Caroline, her eyes focusing on Caroline’s earlobe. “What a coincidence.

We both have a red mole on our earlobes.”

Caroline remained silent, understanding the implication behind Daniella’s words.

Resting her chin on her hands, Daniella smiled sweetly. “Ms. Shenton, since I just got together with

Evan, I’m not quite familiar with his preferences. Could you share some insights with me?”

Caroline was in the midst of organizing some documents. Hearing that, she paused briefly and said,

“Why don’t you ask him yourself?”

Daniella expressed a hint of regret. “Oh, what a shame. I wanted to surprise him and get to know him

better.”

Caroline stood up straight and looked directly at Daniella. “I’m sorry, but I have no interest in whatever

it is that is going on between the two of you.”

After saying that, Caroline glanced at her watch and offered a reminder, “Ms. Love, considering that

you were personally recruited and promoted by Mr. Jordan, I suggest you work diligently to prevent

other employees from gossiping about Mr. Jordan.”

Daniella’s smile froze, and a hint of coldness appeared in her eyes.

How dare Caroline use Evan to pressure her?!

She took a deep breath and slowly stood up. “Ms. Shenton, I hope you remember this—fakes will never

be presentable, as they will never, ever measure up!”

With that, Daniella slammed the door and left.

In the evening.

Caroline hurried to the hospital after work.

By chance, she spotted Scott standing by her mother’s ward’s entrance, engaged in conversation with

a nurse.

Caroline approached him and nodded lightly. Just as she was about to enter the ward, Scott stopped

her.

“Caroline, your mother just fell asleep after last night’s chemotherapy. It’s best not to disturb her right

now.”

Upon hearing this, Caroline decided to inquire about her mother’s condition instead. “Considering it’s

the fifth stage of chemotherapy, how is my mother doing?”

Scott offered reassurance. “Try not to worry too much. The surgery was performed early, so the

recovery has been better than expected.”

Caroline sighed with relief. “Regarding the funds I transferred earlier, is there enough to cover the

expenses?”

Scott looked puzzled. “Didn’t you deposit an additional 140,000 dollars just yesterday?”
