Bracing herself, Elvira said, "Mr. h Hendrix, this woman knows too much about you. Why not get rid of her?" Scott contemplated the suggestion and lowered his gaze.
Ever since witnessing Caroline being shot, he began to show signs of emotional turmoil. He refused to acknowledge that he could not bear to part with Caroline. After all, he had no feelings for her—he just wanted to use her.
If that were the case, why did he feel anxious? Keeping Caroline alive was his attempt to uncover the cause of his anxiety.
Scott said coldly, "Mind your own business, Elvira."
"Mr. Hendrix! Unless you always keep her locked up, you're harboring a potential threat," Elvira anxiously urged.
"You don't get to remind me how to decide!" Scott warned her.
Elvira persisted, "Do you have feelings for her, Mr. Hendrix?" Displeasure filled Scott's eyes. "You talk too much today!" Worried, Elvira said, "Mr. Hendrix, it was not easy for you to reach this point. You must proceed with caution." "It's time to shut up, Elvira!" Scott shouted.
Pursing her lips in displeasure, Elvira angrily glanced at the room when she noticed Scott was leaving. Soon
afterward, she followed suit.
