Trapped in Love

Chapter 80 What Are You Doing Here
[Ms. Love, I did what you asked me to. As for the money...]
[Thank you. I’ll pay you 1,400 dollars first. When you come to work on Monday, I’ll teach you how
to do it.]
The young secretary received the money and glanced at the maternal and child store with a gloomy expression. She didn’t fully
understand Daniella’s intentions, but she had no choice in this matter. She had to wrong Caroline for the sake of her
grandmother’s medical expenses.
Caroline did not lay idle for two days. She focused on refining her design and improving her concept. She also went house–
hunting with Paige.
They discussed the details extensively, as Caroline still needed a place to settle down after coming back from her studies.
Considering she would have three children, she needed to plan the space accordingly. The house
couldn’t be too small, but it also couldn’t be too costly.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Caroline grew worried as she looked at the rows of residential buildings ahead.
“Carol, I just had an idea!” Paige exclaimed, patting Caroline’s arm excitedly. She seemed radiant
with delight.
Caroline rubbed her arm helplessly and asked, “What is it?”
Paige explained, “You mentioned the other day that Mr. Jordan gifted you a house after buying
one for Daniella, right?”
Caroline immediately shook her head. ‘Don’t even consider it. I left the property ownership
certificate at Villa Rosa. I didn’t take it with me because I don’t want to live under his control in
the future. I don’t want to be constantly subjected to his whims and end up affecting my

children’s lives.”
Paige’s eyes widened angrily. “You’re so naive! Why don’t you learn to be as shameless as that
pretentious woman?”
Caroline sighed, feeling quite helpless.
As Paige mentioned Daniella, Caroline realized there had been no news about Nic recently.
“Has Daniella’s little lover reappeared?” she asked.
“He seems to have gone missing. But I found some leads. I wanted to verify them before telling you,

Caroline adjusted her posture. “Tell me. What did you find?” (1
“I became suspicious when you mentioned Robin the other day. It was always the same man following Daniella after the person I
hired started stalking her. So, I had my friend in a relevant department look up two names for me: Robin and Nic. Guess what my
friend found?”
“Based on the photo I saw, Nic is Robin. His real name is Nicholas Robinson, but he’s currently
missing.”
Caroline was stunned,
Nicholas Robinson...
When there was no news about someone, it meant they were either intentionally covering their tracks or–didn’t exist at all.
Caroline furrowed her brow. “Do you have a hacker among the people you hired?”
“Yes, we do, but the hacker isn’t very skilled. I’m afraid we won’t be able to dig deeper,” Paige
replied.

“What about call logs and bank transfer records?”
“You want to investigate that pretentious bitch?” Paige frowned. “Wait. I’ll make a call.”
She parked the car by the side of the road and made a phone call.
After gathering information, she looked at Caroline. “It’s possible if you can get hold of that bitch’s
SIM card and use an RFID reader to extract the data from it.”
Caroline’s eyes darkened slightly.
‘It’s going to be tricky. If I want to get close to Daniella and spend a significant amount of time with her, I might have to go to Villa
Rosa.”
Taking a deep breath, Caroline said, “Can we go to your friend now and get the RFID reader?”
Paige replied, “Sure!”
Caroline arrived home at eight o’clock in the evening and sat on the sofa, examining the RFID
reader, which was about the size of a USB drive. If she wanted to go to Villa Rosa, she would have
to let Evan take her there to avoid arousing Daniella’s suspicion.
After contemplating for a while, she picked up her phone and found Evan’s contact. Taking a deep breath, she glanced at his
profile picture.

Tm sorry, she thought. I have no choice but to use you to gather the evidence. I can’t let the murderer lead a carefree and
unscrupulous life.”
With that in mind, she composed a text and sent it to Evan
[Evan, I left something at your place. Are you free tomorrow night?]
Evan, who had just finished a long–distance video conference, noticed his vibrating phone out of

the corner of his eye.
He immediately picked it up when he saw the text from Caroline. His face grew gloomy as he read
the message.
[111 ask Reuben to pick you up.]
After texting her back, he tossed the phone frustratedly onto the table.
Evan’s heart sank as he realized that she was the first person to contact him solely to retrieve something. If not for this pretext,
she might never have a reason to reach out to him again
Caroline felt a sense of relief upon receiving Evan’s response. The excuse about leaving something
behind was just a ruse. Her real intention was to stay at Villa Rosa
On Monday night, Reuben arrived to pick up Caroline. She entered the villa and saw Daniella
lounging on the sofa, eating fruit.
When Daniella heard the noise at the door, she sat up. However, her expression turned hideous
when she saw Caroline. She was about to throw a tantrum but paused upon hearing footsteps
coming from upstairs. She suppressed her anger and walked towards Caroline in a low voice, demanding, “What are you doing
here?”
Caroline sneered and replied, I’m here to have some fun with you. Are you happy?”
Daniella widened her eyes, but her face immediately softened when she noticed Evan out of the
corner of her eye.
“Caroline, it’s cold outside, isn’t it? Hurry up and come in,” she said in a tender tone.
