Chapter 82 I’m Back to Retrieve My Belongings

After lying down for a while, Caroline heard a knock on the door some ten minutes later. It was Lily, carrying a tray of food with a bright smile on her face. “You’re finally home, Ms. Shenton.”

Caroline sat up and offered a flat smile. “I’m just back to get some stuff, Lily.”

Lily sighed as she placed the food on the bedside table. “It would be great if you stayed.”

Caroline fell silent for a moment. “Is Daniella giving you a hard time?”

Lily forced a smile and remained silent, handing her the cooled–down soup.

“I can see that you’ve lost more weight. You should stay here for a while and let me nurse you back to health,” Lily suggested.

Caroline took a sip of the soup and licking her lips before asking. “Tell me the truth, Lily, Has Daniella been causing trouble for you?”

“It’s unavoidable.” Lily sighed. “I often wish you’d come back.”

Caroline drank another sip of soup and licked her lips. “I can’t come back, Lily. But I believe I can chase Daniella out. You must help me with this.”

She lifted her head to look at Lily. Her clear eyes filled with determination

Lily widened her eyes in shock. “Ms Shenton, the reason you’re doing this.

Caroline took a deep breath and recounted all the things Daniella had done to Katie briefly.

Lily couldn’t contain her anger after hearing the whole story. “I can do it, Ms. Shenton. Let me come up with a plan on how to do it.”

Caroline nodded and expressed her gratefulness to Lily.
