Chapter 518 Wish Me Something Good
Meanwhile, at Grand East Hospital.
After a grueling four–hour surgery, the red light finally turned off.
When Richie emerged, Evan felt so tense that he couldn’t move a step.
Richie sighed with relief and announced, “Mr. Jordan Jr.’s surgery was successful.”
This good news quickly lifted the heavy burden from Evan’s shoulders.
Evan nodded and instructed, “Ensure Axel receives the best medical care.”
Richie reassured him, “Don’t worry, Mr. Jordan. We’ll cure him, and our nurses will keep him company.”
Daniella also looked relieved. Her eyes were teary as she said, “Evan, I’m so glad to hear that.”
Evan glanced at her and smiled faintly. “Thank you.”
Daniella blushed, surprised, and stammered, “Y–You’re welcome.”
“Let me treat you to a meal.” After giving Richie a few more instructions, Evan turned to Daniella and said.
“Let’s go.”
Caroline returned to Bayview Villa that evening.
She placed her phone on the table during dinner, waiting for Axel’s response.
Tyler and Liora noticed her distracted behavior and whispered to each other.
Liora asked in a hushed tone. “Tyler, why is Mommy so absent–minded? Did you do something to upset
her?”
Tyler sighed and jokingly tapped Liora’s head with a fork. “Can’t you think better of me?”
Liora stuck her tongue out. “Then what’s bothering Mommy?”

Tyler sipped his milk. “Why don’t you ask her yourself?”
Liora nodded and cleared her throat, then looked up at Caroline. “Mommy?”
However, Caroline remained fixated on her phone, mechanically munching her food.
Liora and Tyler exchanged glances before yelling in unison, “Mommy!”
Startled, Caroline dropped her fork on the table and looked at them in panic. “What’s wrong?”
Liora pouted. “Mommy, you’ve been staring at your phone and Ignoring us.”
Caroline sighed awkwardly. “Oh... I’m waiting for a text from Axel.”
Tyler chimed in. “You don’t have to wait anymore, Mommy. Axel’s phone is with Daddy.”
Caroline was taken aback. “How did he manage to take Axel’s phone?”
Liora sighed, disappointed. “Oh no! We can’t contact Axel now.”
“Stop it!” Tyler scolded Liora. “He’s safe at home.”
Liora quickly covered her mouth. “I’m sorry, I misspoke.”
Caroline refocused. “Let’s plan an outing this weekend. What do you think?”
Liora’s eyes lit up. She looked at Caroline excitedly. “Really? Do you have time, Mommy?”

Caroline rested her chin on her hand and watched her enthusiastic daughter. “Yes, I’m taking you both to
a hot spring.”
Sipping his milk calmly. Tyler asked, “Is there something else you want to tell us, Mommy?*
Caroline chuckled. “You caught that, didn’t you?”
Tyler encouraged her, “Go on.”

Caroline served them some beef and said, “I might need to be away for three days next week.”
Wide–eyed, they understood she was trying to soften the news with a nice treat.
Thus, Caroline proceeded to explain the reason for her upcoming trip.
Liora scratched her head. “Those people seem to be in a tough spot. Mommy, I support your decision to
help them.”
With a thoughtful expression and a smile for Caroline, Tyler remarked, “What you’re doing is pretty
impressive, Mommy.”
