Chapter 6 Take Care of Daniella

Caroline replied, “Go ahead, I’m listening.”

Katie opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling. She pursed her lips and took a deep breath.

“Carol, you’re actually not…”

“Honey!”

As Katie began to speak, an unexpected visitor barged into the ward. A man reeking of alcohol and cigarette smoke stumbled in, his scraggly beard adding to his disheveled appearance. He sat down opposite Caroline.

“How did it go? Clay didn’t bully you, did he?”

Katie’s face twisted with disgust. “What are you doing here? Haven’t you caused enough trouble for us?”

Ignoring Katie’s hostility, Bradley Shenton smacked his lips and turned his attention to Caroline. “Carol, could you step out for a moment? I need to talk to your Mom alone.”

Caroline hesitated. However, she knew that her father rarely visited, so she decided to give them some space to talk. As she stood up from the chair, she warned Bradley, “Don’t make Mom angry.”

Bradley nodded in agreement, but Caroline looked back every few steps as she walked out of the ward.

As soon as the door closed, Bradley’s feigned concern vanished from his face. It was replaced by a cold and ruthless expression. “Can‘t you just zip it?” he said in a low voice.

Katie’s eyes filled with anger as she gritted her teeth. “Don’t you dare use Caroline to pay off your debts again!”

Bradley sneered. “I spent money raising her, so what’s wrong with asking her to help me out now? As long as you keep your mouth shut, nothing will happen to any of us. But if you tell anyone, don’t blame me if Caroline ends up losing her job.”
