Chapter 555 You’re Finally Awake

Evan’s cold voice broke the silence.

“Why bother saying that?” he asked Paige.

Paige impatiently said, “Hold off on speaking for now. Or would you like to say it?”

Evan wanted to respond, but Paige cut him off. T’m not working right now, so don’t treat me like your

superior. I know Carol better than you do!

Evan glared at Paige. “You’d better wake her up!”

Paige seemed slightly annoyed as she turned her attention back to her friend. “Caroline, if you don’t

wake up soon, your three children will suffer!”

Evan seethed with frustration. ‘Is Paige completely ignoring me?

Paige continued. “Can you bear to see Ty, Lia, and Axel suffer, Carol?”

Caroline’s closed eyelids twitched as Paige’s voice faded. Evan and Paige held their breaths, silently

watching for Caroline’s reaction

Finally, Caroline’s lips moved under the oxygen mask. With great effort, she managed to open her

eyes.

Paige immediately waved her hand before Caroline and exclaimed, “You’re awake, Carol!”

Caroline blinked and nodded slowly at Paige.

Paige was relieved and sank into a nearby chair, tears welling up in her eyes. “Thank goodness you’re

finally awake!”

Evan was also relieved and asked, his gaze softening. “Are you in pain?”

“Mr. Jordan, what kind of question is that?” Paige rolled her eyes. “Of course, Carol’s in pain with her

condition.”

Ignoring Paige, Evan continued. “Would you like some water?”

Caroline’s emotions were mixed as she looked at Evan, who appeared emaciated. She had heard

Evan

talking to her faintly over the past two days when she couldn’t open her eyes.

She was overwhelmed by emotions and couldn’t bring herself to look at him after hearing his remorse.

Caroline briefly shut her eyes, attempting to raise her hand but lacking the strength to do so. Her throat

was dry, and she couldn’t make a sound.

“I don’t think Carol wants to see you, Mr. Jordan,” Paige reminded him.

Evan leered at Paige. “Shut up!”

Paige pursed her lips and sat aside, displeased.

“I can’t believe he told me to shut up after I played a crucial role in waking Carol. Men can be so

heartless!

Alex is no different. He’s just as heartless she thought.

Meanwhile, at Angelbay.

Alex sneezed loudly

The project manager turned to him and asked, “Are you sneezing because of the dust at the

construction

site? Why don’t you get in the car first?”

Alex rubbed his nose and replied, “I’m fine. Send the information to me after verifying it, and I’ll forward

it

to Mr. Jordan.”

The project manager took on the task while Alex got into the car. He opened Paige’s chat box on his

phone and hesitated before sending a full stop symbol, However, he received the same prompt to add

Paige as a friend, causing him to angrily toss his phone onto the passenger seat.

Is she going to blacklist me forever? Alex cursed under his breath Just as he was about to start the car,

he had an idea.

I

‘Right! I forgot Paige went to see Caroline with Evan. I can use the excuse of visiting Caroline to see

Paige, can’t I?

With that thought, he quickly booked a flight ticket to Staten City. There were things he needed to say

to

Paige in person

Before leaving Angelbay, Alex stopped by MK and informed Evan’s secretary. As he was leaving, he

ran

into Joan.
