Chapter 36 Who Do You Think You’re Fooling

Evan decided to visit Daniella in the hospital after completing his tasks for the night. As he entered her

ward, Daniella quickly sat up, a smile forming on her face.

“Evan, you’re here!” she said happily.

He responded flatly, “Lie down, you don’t need to get up.”

A flicker of disappointment flashed through Daniella’s eyes when she realized he didn’t come

closer to her.

“I’m fine. I feel much better after a night of rest,” she sighed. “Sorry for causing you trouble again.

yesterday.”

He furrowed his brows “Don’t go to her again. She’s terrible. Please protect yourself.”

Daniella asked shyly, “Can I assume that you care about me?”

Evan’s eyes dimmed significantly. There are certain things you can definitely avoid.”

Daniella’s expression froze, not hearing the response she hoped for. But then, she noticed his tired,

and handsome face.

“Didn’t you get a good rest last night, Evan?” she asked with affection.

He responded curtly, devoid of emotion, “I’m going to go since you’re fine.”

She didn’t dare ask him to stay. She had to maintain the image of being considerate in front of

him. Even if she felt unwilling, she suppressed her feelings. ‘Sure, you should leave.”

After he left, her face turned grim.

‘What do I have to do to win this man’s heart? she wondered to herself.

She had pretended to be unconscious twice, yet she didn’t sense any care from him. It seemed like he

only cared for her as he would a regular friend.

As she pondered, her phone suddenly rang. Her face paled significantly when she saw the phone

number.

Quickly, she removed the blanket and ran to the door. After making sure Evan had left, she

answered the call.

“Did you miss me, Daniella?” a man’s crooked chuckle came through the phone.

Daniella clenched her teeth and replied with a forced smile, ‘Of course. But next time, please send me

a text before calling. If you had called a few minutes earlier, he would have found out.”

The man chuckled. “How’s it going, babe? Did you get it?”

“How can I get it so quickly? I need a little more time,” she said.

The man paused for a moment. I’ve been tight on money lately. Can you send me some?”

Frowning, she lowered her voice. “I don’t have any!”

“He gave you a house but not money? Who are you trying to fool?”

“I’m not!” she said in panic. “All the money I have is my salary!”

The man’s voice suddenly turned cold. “Do you think I’m a three–year–old child, Daniella? Don’t forget,

if I hadn’t told you about the secret of the red mole, how could you have convinced Evan

that you’re the love of his life? If you don’t want to give me money, I guess I can accidentally

reveal some things to Evan.” 1

Daniella’s expression changed drastically. She tightly gripped her phone and comforted him. “I

know, Nic. Don’t be mad at me. Why don’t I transfer you half of my salary? I’ll work harder to

convince Evan, how’s that?”

“That’s more like it. I’ll be in Angelbay City tomorrow. Be a good girl and accompany me, all right?”

Nic said.

“I’ll do as you say, Nic. But can you help me one more time?” she pleaded.

“How can I say no to my baby?”

She held back her disgust. “You know Evan has a secretary, right? Find a way to get rid of her for

me.”

“Sure. But I’m tight on money. I’ll need some to do that…”

“Got it, I’ll transfer you the money later.”

Back at Villa Rosa, Lily approached Evan as soon as he returned.

“Sir, Ms. Shenton is refusing to eat. Why don’t you talk to her?” she suggested.

He glared coldly at the second floor. “Let her be. Let’s see how long she can keep this up!”

Lily looked concerned. “But her stomach is still upset…”

“Let her be! She won’t die of hunger!” Evan declared, heading upstairs. He paused for a moment as

he passed Caroline’s room before eventually returning to his own.

After taking a shower, he lay on the bed. Despite his annoyance, he couldn’t fall asleep. He decided to

chat on his phone instead

He texted, [Hey].

Alex, who received the message, was shocked. The typically uncommunicative Evan Jordan sent

him a message!

[What’s upl. Alex replied.

[What does it mean when a woman who has been working with you for many years suddenly insists on

resigning?]

Alex couldn’t help but roll his eyes at the question. Couldn’t he just mention Caroline directly?

Intent on stirring things up, Alex responded, [Just let her go! Out with the old, in with the new.]

Evan frowned. ‘Let Caroline go?

He immediately dismissed that thought. It was impossible!

[She’s capable], he replied.

Alex continued to instigate. [She’s either not making enough money or she’s in love, ready to start

a family.]

Evan ignored the first suggestion completely. Just as he suspected, Caroline had an ulterior

motive for leaving! She was even starving herself for it!

Evan’s anger flared up again. After seeing Alex’s suggestions, there was no way he could sleep

peacefully tonight.
