Chapter 18
The Hall family had twin daughters.

The older sister, Mira, was arrogant and always bullied others using her family’s influence, while the younger sister, Ella, was extremely calm and controlled, skilled at manipulating others to do her dirty work.
Initially, the Hall family placed all their hopes on Mira.
However, they never expected Mira to become obsessed with romance, insisting on being with Alexander and constantly causing trouble for his sake.
Left with no choice, the Hall family had to transfer all their elite resources to Ella.
Starting when Ella turned sixteen, the Hall family sent her to France for elite education, requiring her to take over the entire Hall family business before she turned thirty.
To take over the business as soon as possible, Ella never returned home, which was why Caroline had never heard of her.
It wasn’t until this time, when Mira was sent to prison by Alexander and the Hall family suffered attacks from the Scott family, that Ella returned early to take over the Hall family business.

In less than a week, Ella had uncovered the root cause of the Hall family’s current predicament.
She didn’t deny the mistakes Mira had made in this game, so she didn’t care about Mira going to prison.
The only thing that made Ella unwilling to accept the situation was that the real culprit hadn’t received any punishment and was even about to marry the woman he loved.
Mira had indeed proposed this game, but the one who actually took action multiple times and nearly killed Caroline was Alexander.
His dozens of acts of revenge were enough to keep him in prison until death, yet in the end, he received no punishment at all.
Ella was unwilling to accept this, but had no opportunity to expose his crimes.
After all, the Scott family now held great power, so no one was willing to offend Alexander.
At this moment, Ella finally found the right person and the right opportunity.
She said, “This USB drive contains all of Alexander’s criminal evidence from these past years, and on your wedding day, most

of the business elite and media reporters will be present.
“As long as you publicly play the contents of this USB drive at the wedding, he’ll definitely go to prison. Don’t worry, I’ll arrange for people to ensure your safety. And as soon as you play the video, I’ll immediately have the police rush in and arrest him.
“Moreover, after being personally sent to prison by the woman he loves most, I don’t believe he won’t suffer for the rest of his life.”
Ella’s words successfully moved Caroline’s heart.
Caroline struggled to suppress her wildly beating heart and looked up at Ella, who was calmly sipping her coffee.
Then she said, “I can agree to this, but I have one condition.”
Ella said, “Go ahead.”
Caroline continued, “After this is done, you must send me back to France. And you must ensure that the Scott family can never find me or my parents.”
Ella had expected Caroline to make some other demand, never imagining it would be such a simple request.
So she nodded in agreement, “No problem.”

Caroline smiled and said, “Then here’s to a pleasant cooperation.”
Ella also smiled in response, “Pleasant cooperation.”
Two slender hands clasped tightly together, and both women’s eyes gleamed with determination to succeed.
Time passed quickly, and soon it was the day of Caroline and Alexander’s wedding.
On the wedding day, the area below the stage was filled with celebrities from all walks of society.
Countless cameras were focused on the luxuriously decorated stage, broadcasting every movement on stage live to the internet.
Meanwhile, netizens were also sending their blessings to the newlyweds.
To the accompaniment of melodious piano music, Caroline, dressed in white wedding attire, walked arm-in-arm with Alexander, slowly making her way up the flower-adorned aisle toward the stage at the far end.
Before the wedding, Caroline had been extremely nervous.
She feared the plan would fail, feared she would never escape Alexander’s control for the rest of her life.
