If Ethan were to ask her some questions at this moment, she would most certainly be caught off guard and would spill the beans.

However, before he could pry any information from her, Alice suddenly stood up and said, “Caroline is adorable and well-behaved. You’ll see when you meet her. Let’s stop here for today. I should go back now.”

“Alright. I’ll send you home.” He knew he had missed the best opportunity, and with her intelligence and vigilance, asking her about the truth now would be useless.

She wanted to refuse, but she thought about his style of doing things. Even if she refused, he would just do as he pleased.

So, she didn’t say anything and obediently followed him out of the restaurant.

Ethan escorted her to the entrance of her apartment building, which didn’t surprise Alice. He was able to find out about Caroline’s situation, so discovering her residence wasn’t a difficult feat at all. After all, she wasn’t living in a secluded area.

When Alice first returned to Rodcaster, she didn’t bring Caroline along because of the wedding preparations. She was afraid she wouldn’t have time to take care of Caroline or that something might happen to the girl.

However, Cecilia had no choice but to bring Caroline over when the girl cried and begged to see Alice only two days after her return.

After Caroline arrived, Alice moved to this side of town with her, living in the apartment her grandfather had given her.

She had to live separately from Apollo because even though Apollo knew of Caroline, Caroline didn’t know him.

Thus, Apollo was taken care of by Archie.

Since Alice was constantly being chased after when she was in Cliaria, Apollo’s identity had always been kept hidden, as she wouldn’t allow her boy to be in danger.

Later on, the boy appeared as Tanner’s son, which was the perfect way to conceal his true identity and protect himself.

That way, the outsiders would only know that Tanner had a son instead of Alice had a son.
