?Chapter 913:


    Carole’s panic quickly turned to hatred. She red at Erick with such fierce intensity it seemed she wanted to kill him to keep him quiet.


    “Don’t be nervous, Carole,” Erick said. “We’re in this together now, so of course, I’ll keep your secret. Don’t worry.”


    “I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Carole said, looking away.


    Erick extended his hand, gently brushing her cheek. “Just remember, this time you can go home because of me and my parents. As long as you behave, your secret will stay hidden.”


    Carole did not return to Critport quietly. She purposely posted on Instagram, sharing a photo of the Critport Airport to signal her return. She had many followers, but few liked the post. Only Aphrodite left ament weing Carole back.


    Meanwhile, discussions about Carole’s return were abuzz among the wealthy heirs.


    “Didn’t the earlier news say Ellie forbade Carole from returning to Critport? So why is Carole back now?”


    “Why does it seem like Carole is challenging Ellie with this post?”


    “I heard the Thorpe family picked Carole up from the airport.”


    “Holy crap! That’s unbelievable.”


    “Someone should ask Ellie how she’s feeling right now.”


    “Who would dare? Ellie’s pregnant. What if she gets upset… I wouldn’t risk it.”


    “My dad was discussing a deal with Glenn ten minutes ago, but Glenn suddenly apologized and left. It’s like he’s gone to start a fight.”


    “Wow! This is blowing my mind.”


    Anyway, Carole achieved her goal with that post. Within a few hours, nearly everyone in Critport’s elite circles knew the…


    The Thorpe family had brought Carole back to Critport.


    At Moon Manor


    “What the hell is Kaiden doing? He married you without our approval, and now he can’t even prevent Carole from returning to Critport when you want her to stay abroad forever. What good is this brother-inw?” Glenn, who had rushed over from his meeting, was dressed in business attire. However, his tone was disrespectful, showing no regard for Kaiden in front of the servants at Moon Manor.


    The servants exchanged uneasy nces, wishing they couldn’t hear a word.


    “Glenn, calm down.”


    “I am calm. Kaiden is useless.”


    Ellie had insisted that Carole wouldn’t return, and they hadpensated Carole. So why had the Thorpe family still brought her back? They were deliberately making things difficult for Ellie, almost as if provoking her.


    “Glenn, I knew about it beforehand,” Ellie said, handing him a ss of water, hoping to ease his anger.


    Glenn remembered that Ellie was pregnant. As she came closer, he quickly calmed down, worried he might identally bump into her if he got too worked up.
