Trapped in Love

Chapter 30 Promise Not to Get Too Worked Up

He had finally arrived.

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?”

Mark quickly stood up, seeking refuge behind his secretaries, visibly trembling. “Uncle… Uncle Evan!”

Evan approached him with a few swift steps, narrowing his eyes as he questioned, “So, you finally acknowledge that I’m your uncle, huh?”

Mark’s fear was palpable as he swallowed nervously.

In a sudden realization, Mark glanced at Caroline. “Uncle Evan, I did arrange for someone to bring her here, but it was for your sake! You have no idea what I discovered earlier. She has ulterior motives against you. She despises you to the extent that she wants to poison you. You must trust

me!”

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.”

Amidst Mark’s pitiful wails, Evan held Caroline’s hand and left the warehouse.

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

Caroline was taken aback, and her gratitude instantly vanished. She took a deep breath in secret and retorted, “Mr. Jordan, I should thank you for providing me with such an opportunity.”
