Casey smiled. “Did the company’s opening go smoothly today?” Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Daniella was furious when she recalled the unbearable incident but hid her feelings well.

“Pretty good. Mr. Jordan, may I be so bold as to ask you a question?” Daniella asked.

She had been engaged to Evan before and wondered why Casey didn’t know about her. She

thought he should have at least heard her name before.

“Please go ahead.”

“You’re a member of the Jordans, right?” Daniella asked bluntly.

Casey’s fingers moved “Yes, but my identity is not very important to me.”

Daniella frowned. ‘Don’t you know who I am then, Mr. Jordan?‘

Casey explained, “My father sent me abroad for a long time, so I’m not up to date with the situation.

here.”

He gazed up, smiled, and inquired, ‘Do you have something to share with me?”

Daniella was surprised by his lack of awareness. She found it odd that Evan hadn’t informed his

brother about her situation.

Daniella realized she couldn’t keep it hidden any longer. Otherwise, Casey might feel conflicted if

he found out later.

While Casey might initially be uncomfortable addressing the issue, he would likely be swayed by her good character. She could find another way to get closer to him afterward, even if he struggled

to accept it initially.

Daniella stated, “Evan and I were engaged, but we’ve since separated.”

Casey briefly appeared shocked, causing Daniella to grow anxious.

However, his expression quickly returned to normal. “My brother’s to blame for not appreciating. you. I apologize on his behalf.”

Daniella was amazed. ‘Casey is quite open–minded!‘

“I don’t mind the things that happened between you and my brother. We’re bound by fate to meet

each other,” he said.

Daniella was relieved to hear that. I’m sorry I’ve been hiding it from you for some time.”

“It’s normal to hide, but it shows that you respect me enough to tell me now.”

“Of course! After all, I can’t lie to you when you’re so good to me, Mr. Jordan.”

Casey stood up with a bitter smile. “Let’s not talk about him anymore. Let’s eat.”

Daniella noticed Casey’s bitter smile and wondered why he looked troubled when Evan was

mentioned. ‘Could it be that they don’t have a good relationship?‘

Daniella didn’t ask impulsively. They had only recently met, so she knew there would be plenty of

time to discuss private matters when they became closer.

After dinner, Caroline returned to Bayview Villa with the children. As she entered the house, Jade

approached her immediately, exclaiming. “You’re back!”

Caroline suspected that Jade had some ulterior motives behind her scheming expression.

She turned to the children and said, “Head upstairs and take a shower, my precious.

Tyler and Liora nodded, casting disapproving glances at Jade before heading upstairs

Once her children were out of sight, Caroline took a seat and asked, “What’s on your mind?”

Jade also sat, crossed her legs, and adopted a commanding tone. “I want you to buy me a house!”

“Buy a house? Where would you like to live? Caroline asked with a smile.

“Right next door to your villa!” Jade got straight to the point

Caroline gazed out of her window at the vacant villa adjacent to hers. “Certainly, you can have whatever you wish. But there’s a condition. We need to sign a contract first.”

“What kind of contract?” Jade asked.

Checking her watch nonchalantly, Caroline elaborated, “Nothing too complex. Just a contract that confirms I’ve bought the house for you. Of course, your name can appear on the property deed. It’s just a precaution, so you can’t claim later on that I didn’t fulfill my promise of buying you a house.
