Trapped in Love

Chapter 875 Did Something Happen 

The words ‘Happy Engagement‘ showed up on the fireworks.

The night sky lit up with colorful fireworks, casting a brilliant glow. Caroline’s sleepy face displayed a hint of pleasant surprise amid the spectacle.

Evan embraced Caroline from behind, gently asking, “Do you like it?”

Resting in his arms, Caroline wore a concerned expression. “Don’t you think this is disruptive?”

“I hadn’t considered that aspect, but I just want everyone to know that today is our engagement day,” Evan replied.

Caroline wanted to express herself but was interrupted by her ringing phone. Startled, she took the call, unable to discern who was texting her at this late hour.

Upon turning on her phone, she discovered her work’s chat group, where her colleagues were congratulating her on the engagement.

Caroline was perplexed as he had only shared the news with Josie, a tight–lipped confidante.

Caroline: [Thank you, @everyone. However, how do you know about this?]

Colleague 1: [Ms. Shenton, don’t you know that you’re trending all over the Internet?]

Colleague 2: [Ms. Shenton, all the major media channels are reporting about your engagement with Mr. Jordan!]

Colleague 3: [This is awesome, Ms. Shenton. In that case, is MK our biggest backer now?] NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

Colleague 4: [It is! Who else is going to go against TYC now!)

Colleague 5: [I didn’t expect Mr. Jordan to be so romantic. There are fireworks everywhere! This is making me emotional!]

Caroline responded to their messages with a smile.

Caroline: [I’ll treat everyone to a meal once the engagement party is over.]

‘Long live, Ms. Shenton!‘

Colleague 1: [Ms. Shenton is going to be the most beautiful, happiest bride!]

Colleague 2: [Congratulations on the engagement, Ms. Shenton!]

Caroline felt warm and fuzzy inside. She exited the chat and checked the trending topics. The news of her and Evan’s engagement topped the list.

Reading a message from Evan, she thought, ‘It turns out that he hasn’t been inactive these days, and he is far from lacking anticipation. Instead, he saved the surprise for today on our most important day.‘

Caroline turned to Evan, asking. “Why didn’t you tell me about this in advance?”

“Actions speak louder than words. I told you that I’d give you happiness,” Evan reassured, wiping away Caroline’s tears.

Caroline nestled into Evan’s arms and declared, “I heard it, and I’ll remember.”

With curiosity, Evan proposed, “So, future Mrs. Jordan… Why don’t we do something meaningful on this auspicious day?”

Caroline was puzzled.

Evan’s phone rang at 6:30 a.m., waking him. He silenced it, picked up Reuben’s call, and entered the walk- in closet.

“What is it?” Evan inquired as Reuben sounded anxious.

“Sir, we found Mr. Casey and are tracking him now!” Reuben reported.

Evan frowned. “Where is he going?”

“He looks like he is heading to your mother’s cemetery,” Reuben replied.

Evan clenched his fists, sternly instructing, “I’m coming over now. Figure out a way to stop him!”

After hanging up, Evan changed and walked out of the closet to find Caroline awake.

She leaned against the head of the bed and asked, “Did something happen?”

Evan didn’t answer but suggested/“Why don’t you sleep in?”
