Chapter 239 Wedding Gift
Caroline was relieved to hear Scott’s explanation
She nodded and said, “Great then. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know what to get for your birthday”
Scott appeared slightly frustrated. “You’re still acting like a stranger to me.”
Caroline explained, “No, it’s because your gift is too valuable.”
“Alright, I’m just teasing you. I’ll be heading to the hospital later, and I’ll come over to celebrate your
birthday at night.”
“Sure ”
In the afternoon. Paige called when Caroline had just completed dealing with her tasks.
“Happy birthday, Carol!” Paige’s excited voice echoed.
Caroline said smilingly. “Thank you!”
Paige said, ‘Don’t mention it! Don’t prepare anything for tonight. I’ve booked a huge private room
at a hotel to celebrate your birthday.”
Caroline said. “It’s just a birthday. No need for such a huge fuss.”
“No! This is your first birthday back in the country. We must make it grand!”
Caroline was rendered speechless. Others would think that she was celebrating her 80th birthday

“I understand. I shall seize the opportunity to get a free, expensive meal out of you then. Caroline
accepted the offer.
Paige said, “See you tonight then I’ll send you the address later.”
After hanging up, Paige considered briefly before she texted Alex.
Paige: [Where are you, Mr. Price?]
Alex was having lunch with Evan in MK.
Alex [MK, how can I help?
Paige: [Great! Give me a ride to the mall later.]

Paige: [It’s Carol’s birthday. I’m picking out a gift and a cake for her. I don’t have a car! Didn’t you
mention that you’ll be available on demand?]
Paige was losing her patience. Why does this man ask more questions than a woman?
Alex was stunned after reading the text
Is today Caroline’s birthday? Evan should know about this, right?’ he wondered
Alex decided to sound out Evan. He put down the phone, took a sip of coffee leisurely, and asked,
Evan, are you doing anything today?”
Evan glanced at Alex. “Get straight to the point.”
Alex suppressed his smile. He has forgotten about it!”
Alex said. “Ah. it’s Caroline’s birthday today. I thought you might be picking out a gift for her.”
Evan stopped writing and checked the date displayed on his computer. He frowned when he
realized it was Caroline’s birthday.
He did not remember it because she infuriated him last night.
Evan looked back at the document. ‘I’m not giving her anything, and she may not take it even if 1
do ”
“Giving and wanting are two different matters Alex’s interest was piqued. “There are so many
men around her. I bet they’ll get her gifts.”
Evan furrowed his eyebrow in displeasure. “Why don’t you show your care to someone else
instead?‘

Alex ignored the remark and continued to instigate. “I obey your command, you see. Speaking of
which, do you not have feelings for Caroline anymore, Evan?
“Forget it if you don’t like her anymore. Let those men fight each other to give her gifts, then We’ll
just get her a wedding gift in the future.”
The more Alex said, the more unpleasant Evan’s expression turned.
Want me to watch her get married to another man? Dream on! It’s best if she doesn’t entertain this
idea either!‘ he thought.
He struggled to accept that she had kids with someone else and kept it a secret, but this didn’t mean
he had gotten over her, even after all these years.
No one knew how he lived through those five years.
Alex continued to instigate when he noticed that Evan was quiet.
“Evan, what do you think we should get Caroline as a wedding gift-
Before Alex could finish, Evan threw the folder in his hand at Alex.
“Shut up Evan was livid.
Alex kept quiet and stared at Evan with interest.
After a long while, he heard Evan asking in an annoyed manner, “What do women like?”
