Chapter 431:
Elva, observing Lise’s fixation, finally voiced her concerns after shesitation, saying, “You might want to hold
off on these antics around Mr. Norris. It’s best not to push him away or make him resent you.”
“What antics are you talking about?” Lise responded, clearly annoyed as she set her phone down. “The truth
always comes out. It's Carrie who's been reckless, not me. | just caught her in the act. How is this my fault?”
Elva chose not to respond, though she sensed that Lise was squandering a valuable chance.
At Ofrubert Airport, after getting off the plane, Kristopher checked Carrie's chat on Whatand noticed there
were no new messages.
Oliver had left him a message, saying, “Mrs. Norris went to Hazelnut TCoffee Shop to meet a friend.” He was
about to close Whatwhen a burst of notifications from Lise caught his eye.

Meanwhile, in her limousine, Lise watched her chat screen with Kristopher intently, but no typing indicator
appeared. Before, her messages would receive immediate responses, even if Kristopher was in a meeting.
Her anxiety mounting, Lise sent another message, saying, “Ms. Campbell has faced troubles before. | was
hesitant, but | felt you should know. I'd regret it if anything happened to her again.”
Just as Kristopher stepped out into the bustling airport, he noticed Lise’s urgent message and opened the chat.

They were blurry, due to the distance and poor lighting. But Carrie's outfit was the sas when she was with
him earlier that day.
Kristopher exited the photos, about to reply with a simple “Got it,” when Lise sent another message: “Kristopher,
don’t worry too much. It's near the university, so it shouldn't be too dangerous, right?”
Kristopher sent a message back. “It’s not her.”
Lise stared at the words on the screen, her frustration almost palpable. Even though the photos were blurry,
Carrie's figure was unmistakable. Kristopher couldn’t possibly not recognize her.
Kristopher, in order to protect Carrie, was willing to lie to her face. Kristopher loved Carrie far more than she had
imagined.
Kristopher called Oliver. “Which friend did Carrie go to meet? Soren?” He recalled the last the saw her at
Hazelnut TCoffee Shop, dining with Soren.
“I don’t know. When | dropped Mrs. Norris off, the other person hadn't arrived yet.” Oliver felt a chill down his
spine, realizing Mrs. Norris had gone to meet a man.
He quickly added, “I'll check it out right away.”

Carrie was busy grilling meat, watching the beef sizzle and drip with oil, too preoccupied to check her phone.
She picked up a piece of perfectly grilled wagyu, placed it on a lettuce leaf, added ssauce, and rolled it up
before popping it into her mouth.
After a long day, the taste of the self-grilled meat made her squint with happiness.
