Chapter 22 Who Are You Trying to Seduce?

Who did she intend to reveal her cleavage to? Evan thought sourly.

Caroline was left speechless by Evan’s remark.

She had always worn such gowns in the past, so why was he prohibiting it now?

Unwilling to argue, she changed into a white long gown with a deep back V, hoping it would meet his

approval.

However, Evan’s expression grew even more somber when he saw it.

The most alluring feature of her body was her back, slim and upright with two captivating shoulder

blades that never failed to awaken his most primal desires in the bedroom.

Those should be reserved for his eyes only. However, now, she wanted to display them to the world

Who was she trying to seduce?

With a somber face, Evan walked toward a row of dresses.

After examining two options, he selected a conservative, pink, long dress that perfectly

complemented her temperament.

Once she changed into the chosen dress, none of her alluring body parts were exposed. Satisfied,

he accompanied her as they left and got into the car. Once inside, he handed her a shoe box.

Caroline looked at him in shock. “Is this for me?”

Evan glanced at her. “If not for you, then for whom? Reuben, perhaps?”

Reuben, who was driving, remained speechless.

Caroline accepted the shoe box and opened it, revealing a pair of round–toe silver shoes with low

heels.

Instinctively, she glanced at her still–healing ankle and felt a warmth spread through her.

Who knew he had remembered her leg injury.

At the Grand Sunny Hotel, as Evan and Caroline entered the hall, several people approached Evan.

“Mr. Jordan, how are you?”

“Mr. Jordan, I see you’re interested in today’s auction as well!”

With more people surrounding them, Caroline instinctively took a step back.

Though she was accustomed to such situations, things were different now. She was concerned.

about someone accidentally bumping into her belly.

Releasing her grip on Evan’s arm, she said, “I need to use the restroom.”

Evan nodded, and she walked away.

“Is that Caroline Shenton?”

A group of young women gathered and began gossiping while observing Caroline’s departure.

“Yes, that’s her. I’ve heard she’s quite well–off. She became the principal secretary shortly after joining

MK.”

“Well, officially she’s a secretary, but let’s be real, she’s just a mistress!”

“Yulia, you’ve had a crush on Evan for ages. Why don’t you go and confront that woman?”

After a few comments, the attention shifted to Yuliana Xander, who was sitting among them.

Envy filled Yuliana’s face as she stared at Caroline’s retreating figure.

She had witnessed it herself just moments ago.

Caroline was holding onto Evan’s arm as they entered the hall. Did she consider herself that

important?

Yuliana picked up a glass of wine from the table and stood up. “Let’s go and confront that

shameless woman!” 1

The three ladies grew excited and followed Yuliana towards the restroom.

On the other hand, Caroline didn’t really need to use the restroom; she simply desired a quiet and

secluded spot to sit.

However, the moment she stepped out, she collided with a woman who unexpectedly appeared

from a corner.

Instinctively, she shielded her belly and looked at the woman before her in shock. The woman’s gown

was mostly stained with red wine.

The woman still held a glass of wine in her hand.

The ladies next to her shrieked in surprise.

Caroline was prepared to apologize, but the woman’s face contorted with anger as she lashed out,” Are

you f*cking blind?”

Attempting to apologize, Caroline began, “I’m sorry…

Before she could finish speaking, one of the ladies suddenly screamed, secretary who who’s Evan’s

mistress.”

Ulia, she’s Caroline. The

Watching their poor acting skills, Caroline gradually composed herself. They had deliberately

sought her out.

Feeling a surge of anger, Yuliana smashed her glass on the floor. “Pay for my dress!”

Caroline gazed at her coldly. “Fine…”

“What’s that? Can you afford it?”

“Perhaps she can. After all, she has Mr. Jordan on her side.”

“How disgusting! Yuliana, why don’t we tear off her dress since your dress is ruined? That way,

she won’t dare to partake in the auction.”

“Absolutely! She’s probably here to make Evan buy her things anyway. We can’t let her get away

with it!” 1

Coldly staring at those individuals who were throwing baseless accusations, Caroline asked, ”

Since you all know that I’m with Mr. Jordan, wouldn’t humiliating me cause humiliation to him as

well?”

Hearing this, Yuliana’s face reddened. “Shut up! You have no right to mention him. I see you’re itching

to be taught a lesson!”

As she raised her hand to slap Caroline, she suddenly heard a rebuke.

“Yulia, stop!”

Instantly, Yuliana’s expression changed. Before she could retract her hand, a man arrived and

stood in front of her, his handsome face filled with seriousness.

“Why were you bullying her?”

Deep indignation and reluctance swirled within Yuliana’s heart. “Neil, she’s Caroline! The one who

seduced Evan.”

“Yulia, why would you say such vulgar things?”

After reprimanding Yuliana, he turned his attention to Caroline. However, as he glanced at her, his

shocked gaze became fixed on her face.

The woman before him bore a striking resemblance to his late mother.

Caroline, perplexed by his gaze, looked back at him. Suppressing his emotions, he spoke politely, Ms.

Shenton, I apologize for my cousin’s rudeness.”

He then retrieved a business card from his pocket and handed it to her. “This is my business card. If

you ever need assistance in the future, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Consider it my apology.

Caroline examined the business card in her hand.

Neil Xander. He belonged to the Xander family, one of the five aristocratic families in Angelbay

City.

Both the Xander and Jordan families were close friends and business partners. The patriarchs of

the two families had shared a strong friendship as well.

Caroline had heard about Neil during her years of working for Evan, but they had never met.

Unexpectedly, he was so friendly.
