Chapter 177 Divorce (2)

“Are you saying that I’m oppressing him?” Ethan raised an eyebrow and glanced at Caleb.

Which sentence I said implied that? Caleb was dumbfounded. “Well, if that’s considered oppression, everyone would want to be oppressed…” This was his real thought. I seem to have let Mr. Knight use his power to oppress

me too.

Suddenly, a stony gaze swept over him, and he immediately fell silent.

At this moment, Alice was in the Knight Residence. She walked over to Caroline, who was playing with toys, and decided to talk seriously with her. “Caroline, can I talk to you for a second?”

On top of that, what she was about to do next would be dangerous, and she didn’t want Caroline to be affected in any way.

“I’m not a big girl. I don’t want to be a big girl.” Caroline, who was usually sensible, immediately resorted to being stubborn. “I’m still little. I’m still a baby, Mommy. Caroline is still a baby.” She stood up and jumped into Alice’s lap, trying her best to gesture. “Caroline is so small and short.”
