A chilling intensity filled his eyes as he looked at Caroline, who was crouched on the floor.

He directed a deadly glare at Mark. “Well, Mark, impressive, aren’t you? How dare you kidnap my woman?”

Evan glanced at Caroline, who stood composedly at the side, and smirked. “Well, since you’ve been so considerate, I suppose I should show you some appreciation”

Turning to his bodyguards, he commanded. “Take care of it.”

Once inside the car, Evan taunted her, “You certainly know how to use your charms.”
