Chapter 10 I Will Return It to You

Caroline blinked in disbelief. In a flash, she understood.

She quickly grabbed her phone and dialed Reuben’s number.

“Yes, Ms. Shenton?”

Caroline asked urgently, “Did Mr. Jordan pay for my mother’s medical bills?”

Reuben responded, “Yes, Mr. Jordan didn’t want me to tell you. He transferred 140,000 dollars into your mother’s account as soon as he arrived at the hospital yesterday.”

Upon receiving the confirmation, Caroline immediately dialed Evan’s number. “Mr. Jordan, where are you?”

Evan’s tone remained cold. “What do you want?”

“I will return your 140,000 dollars to you!” Caroline declared firmly.

Evan sneered dismissively. “Come to Villa Rosa.”

With that, he abruptly ended the call.

Caroline held onto her phone, deep in thought. After a moment, she made up her mind and headed out of the hospital.
