Chapter 182 It’s Great That You Don’t Mind It

Scott was taken aback and asked, “What do you mean?”

Caroline steeled herself and explained, “We can start being together after Grayson’s birthday!”

Scott was astonished, his lips trembling as he questioned, “Could you repeat that?”

Caroline nervously took a sip of water. “You understand what I’m saying. Maybe it’s not exactly fair to

you-

This isn’t about fairness,” Scott swiftly interrupted, his smile growing wider.

His clear eyes began to well up with tears. I’ve wailed 1. cix years to hear these words from

you.

Caroline felt a sense of relief and said with a smile, “I’m glad you’re okay with it.”

“Tve always been okay with it! I know you have things to sort out. I’ll patiently wait for the day.

when I can take care of you and your children,” Scott said in a reassuring tone.

Caroline blushed. “Haven’t you been taking care of us all this time?”

“It’s different,” Scott said smilingly.

Scott and Caroline visited Lily at the hospital after dinner, just before she returned to Bayview

Villa.

She shared her conversation with Scott with Paige

Over the call, Paige exclaimed, “Really? Is this happening for real?”

Caroline put the call on speaker and moved the phone a little farther. “Lower your voice a bit.”

“I got it, I got it! Scott is finally getting a chance!” Paige’s excitement couldn’t be contained.

Caroline felt a touch of sadness. “Maybe I should have made this decision sooner, right?”

“No! Remember, you’ve been through a tough relationship. It’s totally okay to be careful in this

one. A man who truly loves you will understand waiting!”

Caroline chuckled. “You seem happier than I am, huh?”

“That’s a must! You will be free from my boss‘ control if you are together with Scott!”

Caroline’s smile froze.

Mentioning Evan caused a dull pain in her chest. She couldn’t deny that she hadn’t fully let go, but

she needed Scott around for the sake of her children and herself

She knew she was selfish in this situation but believed she’d heal eventually.

Then, she could give her complete love to Scott

Caroline changed the subject, saying. “Don’t forget about tomorrow night’s party. I’ve sent you an e-

invitation.”

“Sure!”

The next day, Caroline visited the three children before school started

Liora immediately dived into Caroline’s arms and hugged Caroline’s waist tightly. “You’re finally

here to see me, Mommy!”

Caroline felt the urge to cry. I’m sorry for being late, Lia.”

Liora looked up and asked with her teary eyes, “Mommy, when can Tyler and I come home?”

Caroline wiped away her daughter’s tears. It’s not time yet, baby.”

Liora pouted. “I don’t understand…”

Caroline choked up as she explained, “Is he treating you badly, Lia?”

“It’s pretty good, but you’re not there.” Liora sobbed

Caroline said, “You can see me anytime, but I am very busy now and can’t take care of you. You’ll

be very safe with him, and I can set my mind at ease. I promise I’ll take you, Tyler, and Axel home

when I’m done with work. Will that be okay?”

She did not wish to let her children know about the negative side, so she explained it that way.

Liora shed tears. She was at a loss for words.

Tyler grabbed Caroline’s hand with tear–reddened eyes. “Mommy, Axel and I can take care of Lia.

Caroline could feel Tyler’s compromise in his calm remark.
