Chapter 9 Unpresentable

At eight o’clock in the evening, Caroline sent the updated schedule to Evan before leaving the office. As she stepped out, she noticed Reuben waiting by the car.

Seeing Caroline, Reuben approached her and said, “Mr. Jordan asked me to send you back to rest.”

Caroline declined, “No need. I’ll go home on my own.”

Reuben hesitated before continuing, “Ms. Shenton, there’s something I’m not sure I should tell you.”

Caroline looked up, her voice weak as she replied, “Go ahead.”

“Mr. Jordan knows that you’re sick, so he specially hired an attendant to take care of you, and that person is already waiting at Villa Rosa.”

Caroline furrowed her brow. What was his intention?

Did he want to be with Daniella while continuing their relationship?

Caroline sneered inwardly. She would never stoop so low as to agree to share a husband with another woman!

Just as she was about to refuse again, Reuben lowered his voice and added, “Ms. Shenton, Ms. Love’s identity has not been confirmed yet. Are you sure you don’t want to fight for yourself?”

Caroline let out a bitter laugh. “Reuben, in this day and age, money holds more importance than relationships.”

After saying this, Caroline walked around Reuben and left.

Sighing, Reuben got into the car. He glanced at his superior sitting behind him and reported, “Mr. Jordan, Ms. Shenton is unwilling to go back.”
