Chapter 155 How Much Longer Will You Hide?

Shortly after, Wendy exclaimed, “Chief Dunn?”

Caroline turned to follow Wendy’s gaze. A slightly chubby middle–aged man stood there, visibly

anxious. However, the handsome man with him caught Caroline’s full attention.

Caroline’s eyes widened, and she clenched her fists as their eyes locked.

“Why is Evan here? Wasn’t he on a business trip? she thought.

Fabian Dunn frowned at Wendy and asked, “What’s going on, Walsh? Why hasn’t she been released

yet?

Wendy explained. “Chief, this person looks exactly like the murderer who died while giving birth..

“What do you mean ‘exactly?” Fabian berated, annoyed. “He’s Mr. Jordan’s girlfriend! This is

nonsense!”

Wendy gazed at Evan in confusion, then turned to Fabian. “Chief Dunn, the murderer named Caroline

Shenton was once associated with Mr. Jordan too. Aren’t you concerned that he’s

defending a murderer?” she spoke firmly.

“Show me proof!” Fabian’s anger flared.

Reluctantly, Wendy handed over the blood test report. “Her blood type doesn’t match.”

“Then release her,” Fabian commanded, growing impatient.

Wendy turned to Caroline. “You’re free to go.”

Caroline was taken aback but concealed her surprise. “Alright.”

As she walked past Evan, he grabbed her arm and pulled her close.

Caroline found herself leaning against his chest, hearing his steady heartbeat. His voice was cold

as he spoke. “Thank you for being here, Chief Dunn. Your presence saved my girlfriend from a

false accusation.”

Fabian turned and apologized awkwardly. “Tm sorry, Mr. Jordan. Detective Walsh is only doing her

job.”

Evan sneered and left the hospital, his hand holding Caroline’s.

Caroline struggled to break free, but Evan hushed her, saying quietly, “Help me out here if you

want to stay unnoticed.”

Caroline clenched her teeth, thinking. Who’s responsible for all this mess? I wouldn’t have to hide

if you weren’t with Daniella‘

In Evan’s car, Caroline suppressed her anger. The moment Evan entered, she coldly remarked, “Are

you mistaking me for someone else? I don’t need your help”

Sitting in the driver’s seat, Reuben stared at Caroline in a daze. ‘Why are you still trying to defend

yourself, Ms. Shenton?

Evan gazed at her and said, “You can fool them, not me.

“I don’t get you” Caroline looked away, furious, her heart racing from the memories of her feelings

for Evan

“Then why play along? Evan asked with a sly smile on his face.

He had trapped her!

Caroline tightened her lips. “Stop assuming, sir. I was not cooperating with you. I was avoiding

trouble.”

“Really?” Evan chuckled, leaning closer. “Seems you don’t replace me troublesome.”

Evan’s audacity left Caroline speechless.

“Thanks for tonight. Goodbye””

As Caroline reached for the door, Evan wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her closer again.

His warm breath grazed her ear as he asked, his tone chilly, “How much longer will you hide from

me, Caroline?”
