Chapter 278 To Vanish Without a Trace
Two screams echoed from the edge of the cliff.
With Caroline’s push, Antony’s foot slipped off the cliff, and b and Claire fell together.
“Claire, this time, I want you to vanish without a trace!”
Caroline stood at the edge of the cliff, laughing wildly, her face twisted with glee.
“And you, Antony. You love Claire, right? Great! Die with
her then! It’s perfect for you. You should be grateful that I’m allowing you to die together. Without me, you’d never be with
her in this life.”
Too excited, Caroline stood at the edge of the cliff and ranted for a while before leaving.
On her way down the mountain, she was so happy she could dance.
Claire was entirely out of the picture. No one would compete with her for Frederick anymore.
Caroline laughed again.
She felt like she would laugh in her dreams.

The previous four years, Frederick had not touched her because he had not experienced how delightful lovemaking could be.
Now that he had experienced it, how could he hold back?
And she was the closest woman to him, the one with the most opportunity to be with him.
Caroline believed her wish would come true!
She had already ignored all previous doubts, as well as Diana’s words about how much Frederick cared about Claire.
None of that mattered now because Claire was dead, and everything else was irrelevant.
Caroline descended the mountain happily, preparing to take a taxi back to the Halfmoon Manor.
But when she took out her phone, she remembered that Zachary had asked her to go to his place today.
She stood at the foot of the mountain, hesitating for a long time.
In the end, Caroline rejected Zachary: [Zachary, I have to accompany Frederick today. He’s in a sudden mood and asked me to go out with him.]
Caroline: [Sorry, Zachary. I’ll come to you next time. I’ll make sure you’re satisfied with whatever you want me to do for you.]
Caroline used Frederick as an excuse.
She knew very well that only by using Frederick as an excuse

Soon, Zachary replied: [Alright, I’ll wait for you.]
Caroline breathed a sigh of relief and took a taxi straight back to the Halfmoon Manor.
However, what she didn’t know was that after Zachary replied to her, he sent someone to check her whereabouts.
Having reached his current position, Zachary naturally had some cunning and means.
Caroline, though, thought she had perfectly dodged it and didn’t think much of it.
She was too excited at the moment, just waiting to lie under Frederick.
How could she bother to consider whether Zachary would check
her whereabouts?
At four in the afternoon, Caroline returned to the Halfmoon
Manor.
She was in a perfect mood. On her way back, she bought a lot of Frederick’s favorite dishes, preparing to cook a big dinner for Frederick that night.
Once back to the Halfmoon Manor, Caroline plunged into the kitchen.
She was busy until eight in the evening when Frederick returned from the Kingstown Security Department.

Frederick came in, changed his slippers, and entered the living room without seeing Claire. He subconsciously asked, “Where’s Claire?”
He didn’t even realize he had gotten used to Claire’s presence.
Caroline had been happily running out to greet Frederick, but when she heard his first question was about Claire, her smile froze.
“Well, Claire hasn’t come back yet. She should be… She should be entertaining clients at the company, I guess?”
Caroline clenched her hands.
She had only missed a few dinners with him at home. Why did he ask about Claire as soon as he came back today?
Caroline thought, “I’ve been by your side for four years. Shouldn’t you have me on the tip of your tongue?”
She felt heartbroken and spoke unnaturally. After all, she had just pushed Claire and Antony off the cliff today.
“Should? Are you hiding something from me?”
Frederick, a seasoned veteran and in charge of Kingstown’s security, had interrogated countless criminals. He could tell Caroline was hiding something at a glance.
“I… I’m not… Frederick… I…”
Caroline panicked immediately.

She almost forgot about Antony!

“Frederick, actually, I just didn’t want to tell you, afraid you’d be angry. Claire is already engaged to you. I happened to overhear her on the phone this morning, saying she was going out with Antony tonight.”
