Chapter 188 Obsession
During that period, Caroline was consumed by an almost insane obsession. Every night, she dreamt of Frederick.
Sometimes, she would dream of Frederick with Claire, and other times, with Anna.
Each dream was a tormenting vision of Frederick entwined with one of them on a bed.
Almost every night, she was tortured by these dreams.
So, when she learned that Anna was dead and that Claire was the killer, she was ecstatic to the point of insanity.
With one woman dead and the other in prison, she believed she was the only one left.
She was Andrew’s sister and Anna’s sister.
Even though Anna’s identity had been exposed, she didn’t care.
She only wanted Frederick.
She was willing to do anything just to be with him.
Later, she did everything she could to get close to Frederick.
But she never imagined that after enduring for four years, Claire would still succeed.

She had always hoped that Diana would help her, but now that Diana was failing repeatedly, she couldn’t afford to be passive
anymore.
Even today at the banquet, she had failed.
If Claire and Frederick continued like this and Claire got pregnant, she would have no chance to turn things around.
She had to act quickly.
Caroline lay in bed, plotting.
Meanwhile, Claire was exhausted and had fallen into a deep sleep. She had no idea that Caroline was standing at the door, listening to her and Frederick.
She was also unaware that the events at the banquet were part of Caroline and Diana’s scheme.
That night, Claire slept soundly, whether from exhaustion or
some other reason.
The next day, when Claire woke up, Frederick was already gofie.
She assumed he had gone to work as usual, so she got up to wash and prepare for breakfast.
To her surprise, when she went downstairs, she found Frederick sitting at the dining table.
“Waiting for me?” Claire asked instinctively, then realized how

unnecessary the question was.
Frederick would never wait for her.

Frederick frowned, wondering why he had unconsciously waited for Claire.
“Caroline, come and eat,” he greeted, spotting Caroline on the stairs.
“Okay, Frederick, what did you make?” Caroline asked excitedly, running over.
It had been so long since Frederick had been so warm to her.
“I made all your favorites,” Frederick said, pushing several dishes toward Caroline.
Then he observed Claire’s reaction.
The night before, Frederick had been drunk and didn’t remember what he had said or how he ended up in Claire’s
room.
He only remembered fragments of Claire clinging to him.
He thought Claire must have been worried about him and brought him to her room because he was drunk.
After that, she kept clinging to him.
He felt good about it.
But he didn’t think his good mood was because of Claire, but

“Okay, thank you, Frederick!” Caroline said, trying to hide her disappointment that none of the dishes were her favorites.
Claire ignored them and focused on her own meal.
She felt a bit annoyed that Caroline’s favorite foods were the same as hers.
After breakfast, Claire prepared to go out and find a job.
Frederick had cleared her criminal record, and she had already received several responses to her job applications. She had arranged interviews with two companies for that day.
Claire finished her meal and walked toward the door at the same
time as Frederick.
Are you going out?” Frederick asked.
“Yes, for a job interview,” Claire replied blandly.
Caroline quickly joined them. “Frederick, I want to go out too. Take me with you!”
She deliberately tripped Claire as she ran over.
But Claire, with her skills, easily avoided the trip.
She smiled and quickly lifted her foot, then extended her other foot, causing Caroline to fall flat on her face.
Claire hadn’t expected Caroline to lunge at her.

“Frederick, save me!” Caroline cried out as she lunged toward
Claire.
Frederick quickly reached out and pulled Claire into his arms.
Claire couldn’t believe her eyes.
She heard Caroline’s cries. “Frederick, why didn’t you save me?”
