Chapter 527 Give Away
Evan shot Alex a quick look. “Such a nosy guy.”
Feeling embarrassed, Alex rubbed his nose. “I need to ask and clarify things since this happened at my place, you know.”
Evan turned his attention to Liora, who was nestled in his arms, tears streaking her face. He gently stroked her forehead and
recounted the incident to Alex.
“Fuck! Where did this scumbag come from?” Alex exclaimed, anger evident in his voice as he sat down beside Evan. “And why
does she call you Daddy?”
“She’s confused, mistaking me for someone else. Contact Neil,” Evan replied with a hint of regret.
Alex playfully nudged Evan’s elbow. “You’d like her to be your daughter, huh? She’s so cute, after all.”
Suddenly, Evan glared at Alex. “Could you please be quiet?”
Unfazed, Alex persisted, “Could she really be your daughter, Evan? If she thought you were her father at
first, why still later? We know she’s quite smart for her age!
Evan’s patience wore thin. “Just get Neil!”
“Trying to give away your daughter, huh? But she called you Daddy,” Alex said with a smirk.
Evan erupted in anger. “I’ll say it one more time–she’s Neil’s daughter!”
Noticing Evan’s fury, Alex wisely decided to stop joking. He left the room to call Neil.
As the door closed, Evan’s gaze softened as he looked at Liora’s delicate cheeks. He wondered if he and
Caroline had other children, would they have a sweet daughter like Liora?
At 11:00 p.m., Neil rushed to the medical office. He gently took Liora from Evan and said, “Thank you.”
Evan stood up. “Don’t mention it. Please, spend some time with her. She’s been through a lot.”
Neil nodded. “Yes, I’ll take her to see Caroline.”
Nell left with Liora, and Alex returned to the room.
Seeing Evan’s crestfallen expression, he couldn’t resist teasing him again. “I told you not to give her away.”
Evan massaged his sore arms. “You should focus on what you’re going to tell the media tomorrow rather

Outside Caroline’s hotel room.
Neil knocked on the door, holding Liora in his arms.
Paige hurriedly opened the door and was taken aback. “What brings you here?”
Neil glanced around the room with concern. “Is Carol okay?”
Paige understood the situation and stepped aside. “Come in. We need to talk.
Neil nodded and entered the room.
Tyler rushed over. “Is Lia asleep, Uncle Neil?”
Neil gently placed Liora on the bed and covered her with a blanket. “She was already asleep when I took
her from Evan ”
Paige was astonished. “Has Evan been holding Lia all this time? That’s unbelievable!”
“Yes. How is Carol? Neil asked, looking at Caroline on the other bed with her eyes closed.
“She was drugged and should wake up tomorrow. It’s fortunate she didn’t wake up earlier,” Paige
explained.
Neil sat down on the bed, his expression serious. “I’ll handle this matter. Keep Carol out of it.”
Tyler’s gaze was fixed on Liora as he spoke coldly. “We need to put that guy behind bars!”
Neil gently caressed Tyler’s hair. “Ty, I have a favor to ask of you.”
