Chapter 1531: Chapter 1530: The Plan Exposed

The reason it was so formidable was because the person driving Carla Carr was Alexander Kingsley; they had no idea.

They all thought the person sending Carla off was just an ordinary driver.

That car was a top-of-the-line limited edition, super bulletproof, with premium-tinted windows—crystal clear looking out from inside, but from the outside you couldn’t see a thing.

So they had absolutely no idea that the man in the driver’s seat was Alexander Kingsley.

"Keep digging, hurry up and catch up to her, report her movements back to me... if you can’t get it done within the time I set, then refund the money. Worst case, I’ll just find another company to work with."

She’d bought the drug last time, but because she couldn’t get close to Carla, she hadn’t used it; she could only hold on to the expensive medicine for later, just in case.

After spitting this out in a fury, Peggy Carr snapped the phone shut.

On his way back, Alexander Kingsley made a call to Li Fuguan: "We were tailed today. Go check out who they are and what’s behind it..."

After all, Carla’s a woman, and with that many cars following behind, they clearly had bad intentions—that part wasn’t hard for Alexander to figure out.

It’s just...

Were those cars tailing him, or her?

Either way, it wasn’t a good sign. He deliberately didn’t tell Carla, afraid she’d worry... this had to be investigated as soon as possible.

"Yes, Admiral, sir, don’t worry. I’ll start looking into it right away." Li Fuguan said, deadly serious.

There was no way this matter would be that simple. Once they found out the truth, they’d make sure to punish them severely, without mercy.

"Mm. Don’t tell her yet. Assign people to protect her..." With that, Alexander hung up.

...

Carla didn’t get home until nightfall; Li Fuguan came to pick her up.

Because Alexander had given specific instructions, Li Fuguan was extremely cautious and drove her himself.

"Lolo, bye-bye!" Eva Nightingale walked her to the car and waved.

"Bye, Eva. Alexander’s going on a business trip in a while, and I might have to go with him, so I probably won’t be able to come see you every day." Carla said.

"But Eva, I’ll miss you and the two little babies."

"Bye, I’m heading off."

"Mm." Eva responded.

...

After seeing Carla off, she went back to her room.

"Young Madam, Madam just called. She said the little miss and little young master are doing very well, and she asked how you’re doing." the nanny said.

"Madam said you should get some rest early..." Isabel Grant treated Eva very well, and all the servants were jealous.

"Mm." Eva nodded.

With Lucas Knight away on a business trip, she could only sleep by herself.

Lying in bed, she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

Eva reached under her pillow and felt for her phone, took a look. She didn’t know how busy he was; she wanted to call him, but her finger just wouldn’t tap those two words: "Call now."

He must be really busy, right?

Eva didn’t make a single call all night. She just held her phone like that, not even realizing that she fell asleep clutching it... too exhausted and just drifted off...

She probably didn’t realize that by hugging her phone all night, she’d been waiting for his call.

But his call never came, and she ended up falling asleep first.

And then, when she woke up the next morning, she was completely dumbfounded...

Holy shit!!!

"Last night... I actually fell asleep hugging my phone?"

Answer: Yes.

The sunny, golden morning light streamed in, and Eva had no idea how she managed to snap out of it and go wash up.

All she knew was that while she was eating breakfast, she heard Dr. Meng’s voice: "Young Madam, good morning..."
