Chapter 481 That’s My Business

Caroline had no interest in engaging in small talk with him.

“Why are you texting me? Caroline asked bluntly.

Casey smiled but remained silent. He signaled the waitress, saying, “Can she have a coffee?”

“I don’t want coffee. A lemon–infused water will do,” Caroline declined,

The waitress nodded. “Of course.”

Casey grinned and asked, “Are you in a hurry to leave?”

Caroline looked at him coldly. “I still have a lot to do. Can you talk now?”

Casey took a sip of his coffee, still smiling. “So, does this mean you won’t reach out to me unless I reach

out to you first, Ms. Shenton?”

“You should know I’m extremely busy, Mr. Jordan, Caroline replied with a slightly serious tone.

Casey said, “I have a plan to shut down MK’s clothing factory, but I need your help with something.”

“What is it?” Caroline asked.

Casey asked, “Do you think MK’s fashion designer will be useful if they deliver faulty products to their

customers?”

Caroline asked, “Why resort to dishonorable methods to defeat MK?

“Do you have a better plan?” Casey shot back.

Caroline replied, “I can manage my company’s affairs on my own. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be on my way.”

Caroline grabbed her bag, preparing to leave.

Casey spoke slowly. “It seems you don’t despise him as much as you claim.”

Caroline stopped and looked at him. “Just because I dislike him doesn’t mean I’d do something I’d regret for the rest of my life. Besides, it’s easy for Evan to discover the troublemaker. Going against him like this would be self–destructive.”

She knew Casey’s intentions well. He wanted her to seek his help If Evan found out she was behind it, using this as leverage.

I’m not falling for your trap, Casey, she thought.

She contemplated her predicament. If she declined Casey’s offer, he would become suspicious, making it harder to gather information when needed. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Caroline reluctantly agreed. “Fine, but I have a question.”

Casey said, “Go ahead.”

Caroline asked, “What’s your relationship with Daniella?”

Casey didn’t expect such a direct question. “Did you see us together?”

“That’s my concern. Just answer the question, Caroline insisted.

Casey admitted, “We’re just friends.”

“Did you tell Danielle about your encounter with Jamie? Caroline asked.

“Ms. Shenton, that’s your second question. If you want more answers, you’ll have to impress me during our date.” Casey teased with a twinkle in his eye.

He stood up first, stating, “Il send you the date details. That wraps up our meeting for tonight.”

With that, he left..
