Chapter 720 When Will You Be Back?
Axel asked, “Mommy, will you be busy soon?”
Caroline nodded and replied with a smile, “Yes, I have a business trip next week, and the company just
got a huge order.”
Axel looked down sadly. “When will you be back?”
Caroline thought for a moment. “Maybe in two to three days, dear. But I’m not sure yet.”
“Are you going alone?”
Caroline sighed. “Yes, Uncle Kenny will stay to watch the factory, I’ll let him know, and Eira will be back.
soon to take care of you.”
Caroline’s phone rang, interrupting the conversation. She checked Eira’s text message.
Eira: I’m sorry, Carol. I need more time off because Neil is feeling guilty.
Caroline frowned.
Caroline: [What’s wrong with Neil?]
Eira: (He feels like a burden for making you plead with Evan about your father’s matter.
Caroline: I didn’t mind doing that. Is my brother with you now?]
Eira glanced at Neil, who was sleeping on the sofa. She gently placed the cut fruit on the coffee table andThis is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
sent a photo with the text.
Neil had dark circles under his eyes and stubble on his chin.
Caroline sighed.
Caroline: [Please take care of my brother, Eira ]
Eira: [Don’t mention it, Carol. I’m doing it willingly. Just don’t mind me being your future sister–in–law!]
Caroline chuckled
Caroline: [Sure]
After sending that, Caroline thought about talking to Neil later at night. She hadn’t expected Nell to care

Caroline and Axel picked up Tyler and Liora from school in the afternoon. Tyler didn’t have his school bag.
but Liora was carrying her heavy backpack.
Liora began to complain after getting into the car. “I can’t stand it anymore, Mommy!”
Axel helped Liora remove her backpack and massaged her shoulders. Liora, however, glared at Tyler.
Caroline found the kids amusing. ‘Axel dotes on his sister, but what about Ty?‘ she wondered.
Caroline asked, “What’s going on?”
Liora angrily said, “The academic building is so far from the school entrance, and Tyler won’t help me!”
Tyler leaned against the seat. “It’s not my fault you can’t finish your schoolwork.”
Liora retorted, “What does that have to do with you carrying my backpack?”
Tyler smiled. “It’s your backpack, and I’m not obligated to take care of you just because you’re younger.
Plus, we’re born one after another from Mommy’s belly.”
Liora’s face turned red with anger. “You’re such a typical guy. You won’t get a girlfriend in the future!”
Tyler tilted his chin arrogantly. “I’ll have plenty of suitors because of my good looks!”
Axel sighed as he observed them. “Can’t you go a day without fighting?”
Liora turned to Axel. “He bullies me! Axel, this isn’t fair. You’d help me with my backpack, rig-”
Tyler interrupted, “Stop seeking pity from Axel! Ignore her-”
Before Tyler could finish, Axel was already hugging and patting Liora’s back to comfort her.
Tyler couldn’t help but wonder, ‘Why did Mommy bring a sister worshiper into the world?!”
