Chapter 19 He Brought a Woman Home

As she approached the car, Reuben opened the door for her.

Instantly, she could sense the chilling aura emanating from within.

Her heart sank as she heard Evan’s roar. “Get in!”

Swallowing hard, she nervously entered the car.

Before she could settle into her seat, he grabbed her chin, forcing her to meet his furious and

intense gaze.

He roared aloud, “Caroline, have you forgotten what I told you?”

Her complexion paled as she tried to explain, “Evan, it’s not what you think…”

“What is the truth, then?” Evan interrupted, his voice harsh. “Caroline, I believe what I saw!”

He tightened his grip on her chin. The pain engulfed her, and she felt tears welling up in her eyes.

How could she explain it in a way that he would believe? Or was it futile to explain, regardless of her efforts? What he witnessed was not the truth, but it seemed he wasn’t willing to believe

otherwise.

He stared at her with his cold, black eyes, expecting her to submit and know her place.

He had already made so many exceptions for her. After she made her request the previous night, he didn’t order Reuben to keep an eye on her. He had allowed her to go out alone. How could she

betray his trust?

“Say something!” Evan roared. His menacing presence made it hard for her to breathe.

Suppressing her tears and emotions, she mustered the courage to ask, “And what about you, Evan? Are you angry because you feel humiliated, or is it your possessiveness?

“You won’t let me go while seeking your first love. Have you ever considered my feelings?”

“Feelings?” Evan laughed coldly, his words dripping with icy disdain. “Caroline, you’re merely my mistress. You have no right to have feelings.” d

With that, he released his grip on her and pushed her away forcefully. He shouted from the car,

Reuben!”

In response, Reuben promptly entered the car. “Mr. Jordan.”

“Back to Villa Rosa.”

“Right away, Sir.”

Upon their arrival at Villa Rosa, Evan forcefully pulled her out of the car.

Due to the pain in her leg, she struggled to walk steadily, nearly slipping multiple times.

However, Evan paid no heed and dragged her upstairs, forcefully pushing her onto the bed and loomed over her. 1

Aware of his intentions, she mustered all her strength to resist him, her thoughts consumed by the child growing within her.

“Evan, no! You can’t do this!” 2

He tightly grasped her hands with his slender fingers, pinning them above her head.

Simultaneously, he forcefully removed her clothing, his voice filled with anger as he shouted, ” You should know the consequences of defying me

Tears streamed down her face as she confronted his madness,

Gradually, she relinquished her futile struggle.

Lying there motionless, she allowed him to do as he pleased with her body…

After a restful afternoon of sleep, Caroline opened her exhausted eyes when Lily came upstairs to

call her for lunch.

She changed her clothes before leaving the bedroom. However, Lily looked at her with concern.

Ms. Shenton, Mr. Jordan…”

“Lily, don’t mention him,” Caroline interjected, not wanting to hear his name at that moment.

His selfishness had frightened her to the point where she wished to escape

Lily proceeded to explain, “No, Ms. Shenton. He brought a woman home.”

A hint of sarcasm flickered in Caroline’s eyes.

He doubted and humiliated her because of another man’s approach. But what was he doing now?

Was this some form of revenge?

Initially lacking an appetite, now she didn’t even feel like eating.

Her tone turned cold. “Fine, I won’t

no downstairs.”

Lily found herself in a dilemma. “But Mr. Jordan ordered that you must go downstairs..”

Caroline sneered inwardly.

For Lily’s sake, she chose to go downstairs.

As she entered the dining room, she saw Daniella serving food onto Evan’s plate, smiling.

“Evan, should I peel the prawn for you?”

Evan seemed to have heard Caroline’s footsteps and looked up. Upon seeing Caroline, he responded with a cold expression, “Sure,”

Daniella saw Evan’s gaze on Caroline, and a trace of cruelty flashed in her eyes. However, she quickly composed herself, putting on a smile as she said, ‘Ms. Shenton, here you are. Come and Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Her words conveyed a sense of familiarity with the place, implying that Caroline was merely a guest.
