Caroline actually reacted for a few seconds before she could tell that it was Aldrich's voice.
Caroline was dumbfounded for a moment before answering.Her expression became pale.
"Are you calling to apologize about my sister?"
"Caroline, I just want to talk."
Aldrich's voice was gentle, "I haven't seen you for a long time.I have a lot to say to you."
Caroline sneered, "I don't think we have anything to say between us."
"Caroline, I'm sorry"
Aldrich said in a low voice, "I'm sorry for everything that happened back then! It's all my fault ...I'm
willing to make it up to you.Please give me a chance and let's meet!"
"Aldrich, my sister is not here anymore! Do you think all that apology can ever bring her back?"
She was breathing heavily.
"Sorry, but no.Go to hell, Aldrich! The only way I'd forgive you is if you die too!"
After saying that, she hung up the phone.
Whether he meant to separate she and the baby, she needed to go to work in a few days.
The company she wanted to go happened to be a competitor of Stanley Corporation.It had grown
larger through the years while Stanley Co.had an Achillies' Heel she knew, although its business was
developing as well.
Back then, the money she gave Aldrich became the main reason why her parents died.If she hadn't
helped Stanley Co.back then, Nigel Co.could have been saved.
And if Aiden collapsed, how could Riane be with Aldrich, given how much she loved money? In that
case, his sister wouldn't die either! And if Stanley Co.fell apart, Riane wouldn't even decide to be with
Aldrich.
If only she really didn't, her sister wouldn't have died.
Their maid took the baby out on one sunny day.
Before that, Caroline first fed the baby.Caroline felt anxious when she heard the phone ring.She
hurriedly pushed the door open and entered.
In the room, the man was asleep on a chair.
His phone was right in front of him, ringing again and again.Caroline felt an indescribable feeling.She
didn't answer it.
She was thinking whether she should wake him up to ask him to sleep in the bedroom instead when
she felt a bit dizzy as the ground shook.
Caroline was shocked, but before she could feel it, she felt the floor shake again.
Immediately, several books on the bookshelf were knocked down by the shaking.
‘Earthquake!’ She was shocked and hurriedly woke him up.
"There's an earthquake! Let's go!" Caroline said loudly.
He woke up, not knowing how to react.
The ground was still shaking, and the books in the study behind them were continuously smashing
down.
As for the baby, he was with his maids outside and there were no tall buildings around, so they were
safe.
The moment they crouched; the ground trembled violently again.
Caroline hugged the man tightly and pressed his head into her embrace when one of their things
almost fell onto his head.
