Chapter 572 What if I Were to Reconcile With Him?
Caroline noticed that she felt better after having the soup.
“Carol, get some sleep upstairs. A head injury shouldn’t be taken lightly,” Eira said as she cleared the table.
Caroline nodded. “Let me know when you’re picking up the children. I’ll come with you.”
“Of course.”
Caroline washed up in the bathroom, changed into her pajamas, and lay on the bed. Just as she closed
her eyes, her phone rang.
Casp..
calling, and Caroline seemed agitated for a moment. She picked up the call, her tone harsh.”
What do you want?”
“You’re back? Congratulations on getting discharged from the hospital,” Casey said, smiling.
Caroline couldn’t figure out how Casey knew she was back. “Stop monitoring my every move!”
“Don’t be hostile. How about I take you out to dinner tonight?” Casey suggested.
“I can’t. I don’t have time,‘ Caroline declined firmly.
Casey replied, “Alright, see you tomorrow night then. I hope you won’t decline my invitation. You know, I
wouldn’t want to reveal that thing.”
Caroline hung up immediately, not wanting to talk further with Casey. She worried about vomiting up
Eira’s soup, which had been prepared with care.
“What else can a despicable, shameless man like him do other than threaten me? Caroline thought.
At 4:30 p.m., Eira woke Caroline to pick up the children.

Caroline washed her face with difficulty before joining Eira to head out.
She noticed Scott from the window and remarked to Eira, “It looks like my driver is here.”
Eira frowned deeply. “Carol, are you close to him?”
Caroline was puzzled. “Why do you ask?”
“If you’re close to him, or if he genuinely cares about your children, why did he...”

Scott walked into the house while Eira was still speaking.
Eira stopped and said softly, “We’ll talk later, Carol.”
Caroline nodded and told Scott, “What brought you here so suddenly?”
Scott feigned disappointment. “It seems I’m not welcome here. I’ll leave then.”
Caroline looked at him in frustration. “You’re becoming more and more flirtatious, Scott.”
Scott smiled. “Are you feeling better?‘
Caroline pointed at her right arm, which she couldn’t raise. “The clavicle injury is quite inconvenient.”
Scott sighed. “You insisted on going to a dangerous place. How can I not be concerned about you?”
Caroline changed the subject. “I’m picking up the children. Are you coming?”
Scott nodded. ‘Sure.”
Once in the car, Scott adjusted Caroline’s seat for comfort. He propped up her arm with clothing and turned on the seat warmer.
Caroline felt uneasy about Scott’s meticulous actions.
“Scott, can I ask you something?” Caroline looked at his delicate facial features from the side.
Scott ensured Caroline was comfortable before starting the car. “Go ahead.”

Caroline asked seriously, “If I can’t be in a relationship with you, what will you do?”
Scott pondered briefly. “Is this your way of subtly rejecting me again?”
Caroline looked out the window. If there was nothing between Evan and Daniella, she couldn’t guarantee she wouldn’t get back
with Evan. After all, her children needed a father, especially Liora, who displayed a strong need for fatherly love.
Noticing Caroline’s silence, Scott said casually, “I won’t hold you back, and I’ll support your decision.” Caroline finally asked,
“What if I decided to reconcile with Evan?”
