Caroline playfully teased, “Eira and I will be really busy if you don’t come.”

Puzzled, Neil asked, “Aren’t Scott and Kenny helping out? Isn’t Paige there?”

Caroline explained, “Paige is pregnant, so I won’t let her help. The kids are with Scott and Kenny, so they

can’t free themselves either.”

Caroline thought about how Alex had become overly devoted to Paige.

Neil was surprised and asked, “Is it Alex’s?”

Caroline replied, “Paige has never been with another man besides Alex.”

Neil assured, “I’m sorry, I’m picking up the drinks, and I’ll be there in 15 minutes.”

Caroline cautioned, “Drive safely.”

After ending the call, Caroline hesitated about calling Evan. It was almost 5:30 p.m., so he should be done

with work. She decided to send a text message.

Caroline: [Dinner will be ready soon. When will you be here?]

Caroline waited for Evan’s reply but didn’t receive one. She put down her phone and helped Eira serve the

food.

Meanwhile, at Jordan Residence.

Evan sat at the dining table casually. Draco occupied the main seat, with Adam, Casey, and Daniella on

either side. The atmosphere in the dining room felt heavy, contrasting with the lively atmosphere outside.

Adam couldn’t bear the tension any longer and raised his glass, stuttering, “F–Father, Happy Mardi Gras.”

Draco clinked glasses with Adam and said casually, “Thank you, cheers.”

Adam quickly finished his drink, feeling uneasy about the strange atmosphere in the room.

Casey handed the bread to Daniella and addressed Draco, “It’s Lundi Gras, and I couldn’t bear the thought

of Ella being alone. So, I brought her here to join us and help her get used to our family, Father.”

Draco’s expression softened slightly upon hearing Casey’s explanation. He then turned to Daniella,

speaking coldly. “Since you’ve become part of our family, you should act like a newlywed. Casey has always had health issues, yet you haven’teven cooked for him. You’re not behaving like a wife at all.”

Daniella looked up at Draco in surprise. She hadn’t expected Draco to demand that she cook.

‘I’m supposed to be a newlywed, and I have to do servant’s work? Are all the servants gone? I won’t let

you order me around if I had any other choice!’ Daniella thought, but she forced herself to reply

respectfully, “Understood, Father.”

Daniella left the dining room, her expression turning resentful when no one was looking. She thought, ‘T’II

get back at this humiliation someday. It’s Caroline’s fault! The old man wouldn’t treat me like this if not for

her.”

Draco’s gaze shifted to Evan, who frequently checked his watch after Daniella left. He sneered and

remarked, “If you didn’t have to follow my ridiculous rule, would you be here?”

Evan replied coldly. “I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for your unreasonable demands.”

Adam quickly scolded him, “Evan! You can’t talk to our father like that!”
