Chapter 3 Unqualified for Questioning

Despite her intense dizziness, Caroline managed to grab the signed contract from the coffee table before making her escape.

Rushing out, she collided with a tall figure – a familiarly handsome and sinister face.

Tears filled Caroline’s eyes as she struggled, thrusting the contract into Evan’s arms.

Though she held onto Evan’s clothes, she slid down weakly.

In a hoarse voice, Caroline murmured, “Evan, I got the contract signed. Remember the 70,000 dollars commission…”

Evan caught her before she fell. Just then, Henry emerged from the suite.

Seeing Evan carrying Caroline, Henry demanded, “Give me that woman!”

Evan’s cold demeanor intensified upon hearing Henry’s demand.

Reuben, who followed closely behind, immediately intervened. He sternly warned Henry, “Monsieur Devereaux, she is Mr. Jordan’s woman. How dare you lay hands on her?”

Henry’s mind was clouded, and his next words were filled with anger. “How is that possible? Then why did she come to meet me alone?”

Reuben meaningfully reminded him, “Do you think it’s a coincidence that Mr. Jordan is here?”
