TRAPPED IN LOVE - Season 2 Episode 16

“What do you mean?” Evan asked.

“My son is abroad, and seven months ago, I received a call about him being involved in an

accident. I couldn’t reach him, so I traveled abroad. However, I was robbed as soon as I got off the

plane. It’s better not to bring up this upsetting matter. Why are you looking for me?”

Evan was concerned as he sought out Gloria to verify information from seven months ago.

He found it too coincidental that Gloria had been tricked into traveling abroad, making it

impossible for him to track her.

Suppressing his doubts, Evan showed Caroline’s childhood photo and asked, “Do you happen to

remember this child?”

After examining the photo, Gloria repeatedly nodded, recalling the past. “Yes, I do! The child faced

hardships in our orphanage. She was frequently bullied and hit by other children. We couldn’t

remove the other children, so we had to give her extra attention.

“I have a vivid memory of her because of a particular incident. It happened during winter when

she arrived at the orphanage, drenched and shivering. She told me she had saved a drowning boy

and left him at an abandoned warehouse nearby. We immediately rushed there, found the boy, and

sent him to the hospital.

“I intended to inquire about the incident in detail, but I discovered that the child had a high fever.

Just then, a woman came to adopt her. I remember being curious about why someone would want

to adopt a sickly child.”

Gradually, Evan’s face tensed as he listened to the story.

With a slightly shaky voice, he asked incredulously, “Are you sure it’s her?”

“I’m sure! There is a red birthmark behind the child’s ear, right?” Gloria affirmed.

“Was there another child with a similar birthmark behind their earlobe in the orphanage at that

time?” Evan asked.

“No!” Gloria sounded very confident. “Even though I’m old, I have not remembered wrongly! There

was only one child with such a birthmark in the orphanage!”

Gloria’s remark left Evan in shock for a long time.

What had he been investigating all these years? How had he not noticed that the person he had

been looking for was right by his side all along?

In fact, he had forced her to be his mistress for three years!

As he pondered over that, Reuben rushed inside with an unprecedented sadness on his face. Evan

had never seen him like that before. “Mr. Jordan, Ms. Shenton is… dead!”

Evan was staring at Reuben in shock. He asked firmly, “What did you say?”

Reuben sorrowfully repeated, “Ms. Shenton has passed away due to illness…”

At the graveyard.

Evan stood before Caroline’s tombstone, his eyes bloodshot.

Seeing her smiling face in the photo on the tombstone felt bitterly ironic.

Caroline had passed away before he could make amends after learning the truth about her

identity.

He recognized his own fault in being blind and behaving poorly. He would give anything to bring

her back to life, even if it meant sacrificing his own.

Suddenly, he heard hurried footsteps and a white lily stalk was thrown at him.

Paige screamed with tear–reddened eyes, “How dare you visit Caroline, Evan! She’s dead, and I

buried her! Leave now!”

Despite Paige’s scolding and hits, Evan was heartbroken and endured her anger.

“Why didn’t you tell me? Why couldn’t I see her one last time?” he asked in a hoarse voice.

“You don’t deserve it!” Paige snarled.

Evan’s eyes dimmed, and he asked, “Who is the father of her child?”
