Chapter 315 Calm Down
Evan blinked and croaked out. “It’s late. Go wash up and sleep.”
Axel hesitated, not wanting to bother Evan. He pursed his lips in concern, nodded, and headed
upstairs.
After washing up and returning to his room, Axel sat in front of the computer to review the
surveillance footage from downstairs.
Meanwhile, Evan calmly sipped wine in the lounge, glass after glass. His forehead still bore a bloody
mark, and his expression was hostile.
Axel’s worry deepened. He had seen his father drink before, but this time was different. Evan was
drinking with a body covered in injuries.
Was something terrible happening?
Both of his parents seemed to be harboring unusual emotions.
However, Axel had a gut feeling that Caroline wouldn’t harm Evan.
Thus, he swiftly accessed the cafe’s surveillance system and adjusted the footage to noon.
To his shock, he witnessed Evan violently assaulting Casey.

downstairs.
“Sir! Wake up!”
Startled, Axel leaped out of his chair and rushed downstairs
Once Axel saw Evan unconscious on the floor, his face turned pale.
He anxiously asked the maid, “What’s going on?”
The worried maid replied, “Mr. Jordan Jr., Mr. Jordan fainted due to a high fever!”
Axel clenched his lips, trying to stay composed. “Fetch the family doctor.”
“Of course, right away.”
“Wait.”
Unexpectedly, Evan spoke up and unsteadily rose from the floor.
“No need for a doctor. Just leave me alone!” He then turned to Axel and commanded, ‘Go back to bed!”

Axel mustered his courage to protest, “You need to see the doctor!”
The maid also attempted to persuade Evan. “Sir, perhaps you should go to the hospital instead.”
Evan lost his patience and shouted, “Take him back to his room!”
Axel clenched his fists. Seeing this, the maid immediately offered, “Mr. Jordan Jr., let me escort
you upstairs, okay?”
Helplessly and sadly, Axel turned to leave when he noticed Evan’s cold and tense expression.
Back in his room, he continued watching the surveillance footage.
Seeing Evan back on the sofa and drinking more wine, Axel decided to call Caroline.
His mother was his only hope because he couldn’t bear to watch his father harm himself any
longer.
When Axel’s call came in, Caroline had just finished tucking the two children into bed.
She picked up the phone and asked, “Axel, what’s wrong?”
Axel clutched his clothes and stammered, “Mommy, I need your help.”
Caroline’s heart skipped a beat as she sensed the urgency in Axel’s voice. “What happened? Tell
me.”
“Daddy is hurt. His forehead is bleeding, and he has a high fever. But he won’t listen and refuses to
see the doctor.”

“Yes,” Axel replied
Upon hearing the distress in her son’s voice, Caroline’s heart ached She knew Draco was
responsible for Evan’s condition.
She took a deep breath and reassured Axel, “Alright, stay calm. I’m on my way.”
“Okay.”
After ending the call, Caroline hurried to Villa Rosa with Freyn.
Axel was waiting in the living room and pointed toward the lounge.

Caroline nodded, approached the living room, and told Axel, “Go to bed. Let me handle this.”
Axel lowered his head, feeling guilty. “I’m sorry, Memmy. I didn’t know what else to do.”
Caroline gently ruffled his hair. It’s okay. Just go.”
With Axel upstairs, Caroline braced herself and entered the living room.
Inside, she was greeted by the overpowering scent of wine and smoke. She spotted Evan sitting on
the sofa, his face pale and his eyes closed.
Caroline immediately instructed Freya, “Please check his temperature and prescribe some
medicine.”
