That’s exactly what Alex hoped Caroline would say.
He promptly handed Axel to Caroline. ‘Sure thing.
Afterward, he approached Paige.
While holding Axel, Caroline shot Evan a distant glare. “Please, take a seat.”
Evan glanced at the three men connected to Caroline in some way and scoffed. “Where should I sit?
“What do you mean?” Caroline frowned.
Evan explained, Evan explained, ‘Should I sit next to Neil, your current boyfriend, or Kenny, who has a
complicated relationship with you? Or maybe next to Scott? Your kids call him Papa Wilson, and he
shares an intriguing connection with you?”

with Axel around.
Kenny pursed his lips in disdain. “Mr. Jordan, forget it if you don’t want to join. Why bother?”
His comment earned a cold glare from Evan
Ignoring Kenny, Evan pulled a chair aside and sat down.
Axel gently placed his cold hand on Caroline’s “Mommy, just put me down. You’ll get tired.”
Caroline’s injuries hadn’t fully healed, and Axel didn’t want to be a burden.
Nodding, Caroline set Axel down and asked worriedly, “Axel, do you eat properly?”
Axel weakly forced a smile. “Yes. I just didn’t sleep well. Mommy, don’t worry.”
But Caroline’s worry persisted, though she didn’t pursue it further because she didn’t have his
custody.
The siblings soon had fun together, and Caroline returned to sit beside Neil.
Kenny moved closer and sat to Caroline’s left, effectively sandwiching her between Neil and
himself.
Evan’s face turned red at the sight. Suppressing his rage, he mocked, “Hmph! What a harmonious

“Mr. Jordan, are you jealous?” Kenny taunted smugly. “But I’m sorry. You can’t join in the fun. Carol is
so smart and pretty. Only shortsighted men would dump her!”
“Enough, Kenny!” Caroline intervened.
But Kenny continued. “It’s the truth, isn’t it? Any wise man would see what a gem you are!”
“Kenny is right.” Neil chimed in. His displeasure was evident as he looked at Evan. “Only narrow-

Neil retorted, “Don’t you find them hurtful?”
Evan refused to back down “Did I hurt Caroline or you?”
“Isn’t that a snide remark directed at everyone here?”
Caroline shouted, “Stop arguing!”
Unfortunately, she couldn’t get them to stop
Evan narrowed his eyes and ignored Caroline. “Isn’t that the reality? Xander, I was wrong about you.
Your kids‘ mother stays in touch with so many men, yet you seem to get along with them just fine.”
Neil’s anger flared. “You have no idea. Stop making baseless accusations.”
Evan ridiculed, “I saw it. Isn’t that evidence?”
Caroline tried to intervene again. “Can you guys just stop? Evan, can your thoughts alone be
considered evidence? Why do you think that way?”
“Eh…” Suddenly, Alex asked, “Caroline, is it your kid’s birthday today?”
Caroline felt relieved when Alex stepped in to mediate the situation.
