Chapter 120
The hospital staff took Caroline to the operating room. Kirk wanted to follow her in, but Sean
stopped him.
“Kirk.” Sean tried to calm his friend down. “Caroline will be fine.”
Kirk looked back at him. His eyes were still red from anger, which made him look terrifying.
Despite being his longtime friend, Sean was also a little scared of him. He knew Kirk too well.
He was always calm and composed; he’d never lose his composure unless someone hit his trigger.
Without him realizing it, Caroline had become his soft spot at some point.
It seemed like Kirk himself didn’t know about that.
“How is Carol?” Gwen asked Sean as soon as she arrived. She’d rushed to the hospital as soon as
she’d heard what had happened.
Sean glanced at Kirk, then looked at Gwen and answered, “She just went into the operating room.”
“Which bastard did this to her?” Gwen growled.
Sean said, “Brie.”
“That fucking bitch!” Gwen turned around and was about to leave.
Sean stopped her. “Where are you going?”
“To get even with Brie, of course! That crazy bitch is nuts! She always causes trouble for Carol!”
“Don’t do anything for now.” Sean persuaded her, saying, “Kirk will handle this.”
“How is he going to do that?” Gwen questioned.
It wasn’t that Gwen didn’t believe in Kirk, but Brie was from one of the big four families. On top of
that, She was Howard’s precious daughter, and he was the current head of the Collins family.
Even if Jude stepped in, Brie might not necessarily be punished. Kirk was just an ordinary person.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThere was no way he could do anything to Brie.
“Just don’t worry.” Sean didn’t know what to tell Gwen. He gave her a look and said, “Let’s wait
here for now.”
Cars was loux She wanted to say shit between the saw Kurk standing rigidly at the
geting to do, she felt rahiming peesware
The mullenly kepa her mouth shut and stayed by Sean’s side, waiting quietly.
After whet beersed to be a infetame the doctor finally came out of the operating room “The patient
is fine the has a few bruses on her head and the past needs to rest and recover
Gwen let out a sigh of relief
Then, she looked back at Kuk He was still standing there with his fists clenched, and his eyes
were terrifyingly dark
She wordlessly looked at Sean
Sean said cautiously. “Hey, Kirk Since Caroline is fine, Gwen and I are leaving ”
With that said, he pulled Gwen away.
Gwen said anxiously, “Hey‘ Why are you dragging me away? I haven’t even seen Carol yet!”
Sean pulled Gwen into the elevator. He asked, “Why on earth are you so dense?”
“Aren’t you giving Carol and Kirk some time alone?” Gwen asked, rubbing her tender wrist.
Sean’s eyes dumed, and he said hoarsely, “Since you know, why aren’t you playing along?”
Gwen pouted unhappily “Hmph If Kirk hadn’t saved her, I wouldn’t have even given him this
chance
Sean’s lips curled into a smile. “Of course. Thank you for your generosity, Ms Jameson ”
Gwen felt a tenderness in her chest, but she said. “But don’t celebrate so soon. Although I’ve
accepted Kirk as Carol’s husband, Carol has long lost interest in love since Eddy hurt her So, Kirk
will just have to face disappointment.”
The smile on Sean’s face disappeared.
In the hospital room, Caroline lay on the bed, unconscious. Her head was wrapped in gauze, and her
cheeks were pale. She looked fragile, like she could fall apart at any moment.
Kirk held her hand, his eyes filled with distress.
“Sir.” Charles walked in quietly. He said, “I have the surveillance footage at the time of the
Kirk’s grip on Caroline’s hand tightened, a trace of anger appearing in his eyes. “Leave it here,
Yes, sir.” Charles put down the tablet next to Kirk and left the room.
Taking a deep breath, Kirk looked at the surveillance footage sullenly.
His eyes darkened upon seeing Caroline getting dragged to the hotel room. As he watched the
video, the atmosphere in the room became colder and colder.
When he saw Caroline refusing Brie’s order to call him, he felt as if his heart was being pricked by
tons of needles.
She’d been protecting him.
He clenched his fists tightly, his entire body itching for violence.
Then, when he saw the two bodyguards tearing Caroline’s clothes apart, he snapped. “Charles!”
Charles immediately walked into the room.
Kirk ordered, “Cut off these two men’s hands.”
Charles wanted to remind him that they were in Easton, but when he saw Kirk’s livid expression.
he relented. “Yes, sir.” Then, he left the room.
Kirk was still gripping the tablet so tightly that cracks appeared on the screen. Finally, the screen.
shattered under his grip, and the tablet couldn’t work anymore.
The rage disappeared from Kirk’s gaze as he slowly regained his composure. However, when he saw
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCaroline’s pale face, his murderous intent returned in full force.
“Carrie,” Kirk called her name softly, gently holding her hand.
His heart ached. He looked at her slender hands. He couldn’t imagine how Caroline used those very
hands to grip Brie’s neck, threatening to take her down with her.
She’d wanted to protect him, even if she lost her life.
Kirk felt a recklessness he’d never felt before.
He took out a ring from his pocket and got down on one knee. Right now, there were no balloons, fancy
music, or cake. There was even the smell of disinfectant in the air, but this moment was
more romantic than any other moment in his life.
“Marry me, Carrie,” Kirk whispered His lips trembled, and his eyes were teary Without waiting for an
answer, he slipped the pink diamond ring on Caroline’s finger. It seemed like the ring had been made
just for her, and it fit her like a glove.
At last, a soft smile appeared on Kirk’s face. He lowered his head, kissing Caroline’s fingers.
“K Kirk Caroline’s fingers moved.
Kirk looked up and saw Caroline looking at him. He didn’t know when she’d woken up
A trace of panic appeared in his eyes, and he quickly got up. “When did you wake up?”
There was a smile on Caroline’s face as she asked, “Were you proposing to me?”
T–I… For the first time, Kirk discovered that he could get tongue–tied as well.
Upon seeing the blush on Kirk’s face, Caroline felt the pain in her body fade away
She‘ could’ve never guessed that the cynical and indifferent Kirk could blush like that It was pretty cute.
“Kirk.” She said softly, “I accept your proposal”
Kirk looked at her, the coldness in his gaze faltering “What did you say?” His mouth was parched
He gripped Caroline’s hand with trembling hands.
Caroline looked at him with a smile “Yes, Kirk. I want to give us a chance
