Agnes replied : [ OK , I'll take a picture and send it to you . ] Mr. Vaughn sent another screenshot of a transfer and replied : [ Thanks a lot . ] The so - called Mr. Vaughn Agnes chatted with was a suitor of Caroline named Preston Vaughn . Preston was madly obsessed with Caroline . He was tossing and turning every night because he couldn't get the love he wanted . He even bribed someone around Mabel to pass on relevant information about Caroline to him . Upon learning that Caroline , who was always aloof and unapproachable , had brought a man back home for the first . He Loved Her 2/12 time , Preston panicked and asked Agnes to secretly take some photos of Alistair . He wanted to investigate who dared to snatch a woman from him . Mabel was kind - hearted . She usually didn't care if the nannies broke things or did something wrong . But since someone betrayed their family and leaked their privacy to outsiders , Mabel couldn't stand it anymore . She got angry immediately and told Agnes to pack up and leave . Agnes begged for mercy in tears , " Madam Ashbourne , Ms. Ashbourne ! I was wrong . I shouldn't have betrayed you for a little favor . Please forgive me since it's my first time making a mistake . I swear I won't do it again ! " One betrayal was enough to see a person clearly . When it came to such important issues , Mabel was no pushover . Seeing that there was no room for maneuver , Agnes left the scene sadly . Mabel was furious . " Blacklist that Vaughn guy and never allow him to set foot here again ! " The housekeeper lowered his eyes and replied , " Yes , Madam . " " It's your first day here . I'm sorry for what happened … " As soon as Mabel started to speak , she was interrupted by Caroline . " Grandma , he is not a stranger . Why are you being so Chapter 35 Alistair Said He Loved Her polite to him ? " Mabel was left speechless . She still looked at Alistair with loving eyes . 3/12 Her expressions were different from the ones she had when she was with Caroline , as if she weren't unsatisfied with the man Caroline had married . " Alistair , thank you . Otherwise , we'd keep such a treacherous person in the house , and it would be a disaster sooner or later . " Mabel felt uncomfortable when she thought that someone was spying on them in the house . Even if the other party had no ill intentions and just tried to achieve certain goals by playing petty tricks , she still felt terrified . Besides , no one could be sure that they had no ill intentions . After this incident , Mabel began to re - examine Alistair . Maybe I should let go of my prejudice . Excellence should not be reflected solely by academic qualifications , family background , etc. This young man Carol likes is not only good - looking , but also has strong insight . Chapter 35 Alistair Said He Loved Her Isn't this an advantage that others don't have ? Everyone present looked at Alistair . 4/12 Alistair looked down at Eloise , who never left his side , unwilling to take credit for the success . " In fact , it was Eloise who made me alert . " When Eloise saw Agnes , she showed her nervousness and timidity , which made Alistair subconsciously alert . Caroline was extremely annoyed . This happened the first time I brought Alistair back . Will it leave a bad influence on him ? What if he feels that entering a wealthy family is terrible , or let him mistakenly think that I'm flirting with others … Caroline seemed to see that on the road to guiding her into Alistair's heart , there were two more obstacles that could not be ignored . The excellent CEO , Caroline , who was calm and composed , wanted to clarify everything , but she knew this was obviously not a good time to do so . Caroline wished she could cut Agnes into pieces . Agnes begged that it was getting late , and she wanted to leave tomorrow . Mabel remained unmoved . Chapter 35 Alistair Said He Loved Her 5/12 Under the supervision of the housekeeper , she went to her room to pack her things . When she left , she seemed to glance over here unintentionally . Alistair caught her gaze by accident , and his heart started beating for no reason . Unrest surged like a tidal wave . He had a bad feeling that something was going to happen . The wind brought him the faint fragrance that he had been familiar with for a few days . Caroline walked to his side and looked over at him . " What are you thinking about ? " Alistair shook his head . " Nothing . " In the end , it was just his vague intuition , lacking any evidence to support it . What if I'm just overthinking it ? Caroline's mood dropped a little because of his nonchalant reply . Caroline frowned . There's obviously something going on , but he just doesn't want to tell me . 6/12 Chapter 35 Alistair Said He Loved Her Caroline tucked the loose hair behind her ears and said , " Alistair , luckily there are only two of us right now ; otherwise , they would have figured out something was up . " Alistair was stunned . " Sorry , I- " Caroline replied , " Real couples won't apologize all the time . " Alistair didn't know how to reply . He suddenly felt that Caroline was a bit harsh . After all , they were not a real husband and wife . Even if they were a real couple , they had known each other for just a few days . Caroline then explained , " Don't get me wrong . I just want to remind you that you should be careful with your actions in front . of my grandma . If we are too polite to each other … " She suddenly leaned over and whispered , " My grandma has very sharp eyes . If we are not careful , she may find out the truth , and then all our efforts will be in vain . " Her breath sprayed on Alistair's face . Alistair paused and felt that the air around him had become a lot thinner . Subconsciously , he wanted to take a step back to distance himself , but someone passed by , and he held back . " Okay , I'll be more careful . " He was a little nervous . Chapter 35 Alistair Said He Loved Her He couldn't imagine if their relationship was exposed … 7/12 He had been addicted to the fake family life . If this were a dream , he hoped to maintain it forever and did not want to wake up so early . Caroline added , " I don't even know what that guy looks like . " The topic suddenly changed , and Alistair's brain couldn't keep up . " I mean that man named Mr. Vaughn . I have nothing to do with him . Don't think too much about it . " Finally finding an opportunity to clarify , Caroline hurriedly explained . As soon as she finished speaking , she felt as if she had washed off a spot of mud that someone had accidentally thrown at her , and the depressed feeling in her heart finally dissipated a little . Alistair looked around . Eloise was sitting on the swing in the garden , while Mabel was sitting beside her reading a story to her . Julian had disappeared . Except for Mabel who looked up at them from time to time , Alistair was sure that no one noticed them . Alistair wanted to say , " You don't need to explain this to me . " Chapter 35 Alistair Said He Loved Her On second thought , he paused . 8/12 Would a real husband not care if his wife is pursued by another man ? Considering the one - million - dollar payment a month , I really need to learn from Caroline and get into the role so as to avoid being seen through accidentally . He followed her words and pretended to be relieved . " Really ? Then I feel relieved . " Caroline blinked her eyes . " So , honey , have you forgiven me ? " Now , she could fluently and naturally call him " honey . " On the contrary , Alistair was not used to hearing that . He wast unsure how he should respond to that . If he accepted that , he'd be considered to be taking advantage of her , but if he didn't , he'd be considered unprofessional . In the final analysis , it was because he had the wrong mindset . and had too many messy thoughts . Caroline , however , was calm and open - minded , and she was not as shy as him , so she could call him honey without any psychological burden . However , he had no idea that Caroline had ulterior motives toward him from the first moment she saw him . Chapter 35 Alistair Said He Loved Her Alistair replied , " It's not you who did anything wrong . " 9/12 Caroline said , " Honey , why are you so considerate ? I love you even more ! " After saying that , she smiled at Alistair . That smile made the colorful blossoms behind her pale in comparison . Alistair's heart suddenly stopped , and his mind was in a mess . " Uh , I - I … " Caroline waited patiently for his reply . Alistair couldn't even finish a sentence after a long time . Caroline moved closer unwillingly . Under the bright sunlight , her skin was as smooth as a baby's . Her expectation made Alistair feel that if he continued to hesitate like this , he would be like an unforgivable scumbag . He made up his mind and replied , " I love you too ! " It was like a sharp blade soaked in a deadly hallucinogen , piercing Caroline's heart in an instant . Caroline stared at Alistair blankly . The blood in her body suddenly coagulated , her mind went blank , and the entire colorful world became a huge backdrop . At this moment , there was only Alistair in her eyes . Chapter 35 Alistair Said He Loved Her Alistair was a little embarrassed at first , and Caroline's surprised reaction made him feel at a loss . 10/12 Could it be that I'm too immersed in the role and don't know how to control myself ? The word love is so sacred and noble . How can we say it casually ? But Caroline can say , and why can't I … Caroline quickly came back to her senses . It seemed as if her absent - mindedness was just Alistair's illusion . Caroline asked , " That's all ? " Alistair stared at her with a confused face . She added , " Remember to add the word ' baby ' next time , otherwise , who will know who you really love ? " Alistair was left speechless . After Caroline gave her instructions in a serious tone , she turned her head and looked at the scenery as if nothing had happened . Gradually , a blush crept up on his face . Even though she knew that Alistair said so under her " force " Chapter 35 Alistair Said He Loved Her and what Alistair said just now was not his real thoughts , Caroline didn't care . Anyway , Alistair said he loved her . 11/12 Mabel looked at them who were huddled together and whispering . She felt that she was full of contradictions . When Caroline kept to herself , Mabel worried that she would be alone for the rest of her life . When Caroline found her ideal husband as she wished , Mabel felt very uncomfortable for a while . All in all , it happened too suddenly , and she didn't have any time to prepare herself mentally . No one would be used to it . Caroline stroked Eloise's face lovingly . This is a poor child , but she is also very lucky to have met Caroline . Mabel asked , " Eloise , do you like your dad ? " Eloise held a bottle and sipped it . She nodded vigorously after hearing this . " Of course I like him . My dad is so nice ! " Mabel smiled and said , " Well , as long as you both like him . " The only thing Mabel could do was to send her blessings to Chapter 35 Alistair Said He Loved Her them .
