Chapter 71

“I asked him about it, but he still hasn’t agreed,” Caroline explained.

Gwen asked, “Is he afraid Mr. Morrison Senior will notice something?”

“What is he supposed to notice?” Caroline asked. She thought that Gwen was overthinking things. She

said, “Even if he’s the son of a wealthy family, the Evans family would have noticed.”

Gwen stroked her chin. “You have a poi

“Eddy’s second unde decided this himself. You stuboonly wouldn’t let Caroline off the hook at my

birthday banquet. So Eddy’s second uncle came up with a compromise. Yet you’re bringing it up again

today to cause Carbine trouble.

“It seems that I misjudged your change in attitude a few days ago. Ws. Colire. You stil don’t know your

mares.

Brie’s face tumed pale as she tried to explain, saying “Mr. Morison Senior, -t’s not what you think. I was

just afraid that Eddy’s second uncle had been deceived, so I was desperate to ask Caroline for an

explanation.

Jude smiled. He countered. “Let me ask you this in rear. What right do you have to worry about these

things?

Brie blinked and answered. “My right as his fiancés, of course.*

Rumors about Brie and Kirk’s marriage had been spreading in social circles for a long time. Now that

the parties had validated these rumors, everyone couldn’t help pricking their ears, wanting to hear the

more exciting news.

Standing beside Jude, Caroline’s expression shifted slowly, and she stared at the old man in disbelief.

Jude chuckled. “Since when were you his fiancée?” He wasn’t aware that something like this had

happened.

Brie explained, ‘Didn’t you agree to my request at your birthday t. At any rate, Mr. Morrison Senior

wants to see him, so you should take Kirk to see him. Let that old man observe him for a bit.”

“Forget it… Caroline lowered her head. “Eddy is looking everywhere for Kirk right now. Taking Kirk to

see Mr. Morrison Senior is just asking for trouble.”

“That’s a simple problem. Since Mr. Morrison Senior likes you so much, just tell him not to tell Eddy

about your visit. Besides Gwen pushed, “Don’t you want to get that old man’s approval?”

Gwen knew Caroline well. She managed to convince her best friend with just a few words. Seeing that

Caroline was silent, Gwen dragged

her out of the bathroom. She called out to Kirk, who was standing by the bed, “Kirk!”

Kirk frowned, looking at Caroline, who was looking down with a flushed face.

Gwen pushed her best friend in front of Kirk and patted her on the shoulder. She said, “Go ahead and

talk. I’ll be waiting outside.” After

that, she left Caroline and Kirk alone in the hospital room.

“What do you want to talk about?” Kirk asked. He saw Caroline’s exposed collarbone and coughed

unnaturally, looking away.

“The same thing as last time. I’d like you to meet Grandpa,” Caroline babbled, finishing her sentence in

one breath. Her beautiful eyes

stared at Kirk nervously.

Kirk’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Didn’t I agree already?”

“You did? When?”

“When I asked you if you wanted me to go.”

Caroline blinked her eyes, and her lips parted slightly. She couldn’t believe what he said. She asked,

“So, you’ll agree to the visit because I asked you to?” It was the same as when he’d bought her that

house because she liked it.

Kirk nodded.

Caroline’s eyes turned red. She said, “But Eddy is looking everywhere for you. If we visit Grandpa, we

may be walking into a trap…”

Kirk patted Caroline’s head with a smile. “It’s okay. Even if he finds me, he can’t do anything to me.”

However, Caroline still had mixed feelings.

“It’s getting late,” Kirk said, looking at the clock on the wall. “You should rest soon. I’m going home.”

“Kir- Caroline chased him to the balcony, but he’d already slid down the pipe on the wall nimbly and

disappeared into the darkness.

When Gwen returned to the room, she noticed it was empty and asked in confusion, “Where’s Kirk?”

Caroline looked at the ground below her.

Gwen asked in fright, “D–did he jump? He’s overreacting. You’re just taking him to see Mr. Morrison

Senior. It’s not like that old man will eat him alive.”

Caroline looked at her friend impatiently and said, “What on earth are you talking about? He just slid

down along the pipes on the wall.”

Gwen patted her chest in relief. “Oh, that scared me. But he’s really intense. Did he come up here by

climbing along the pipes too?” Caroline nodded.

Gwen’s eyes widened in surprise. She gave her a thumbs up. “He’s really strong!”

Kirk trouble, but she was also worried that Jude would be unhappy with Kirk.

For the past few days, she didn’t even have the energy to work on the designs for the competition.

That day, the doctor did Caroline’s final checkup. There weren’t any problems, so she could be

discharged from the hospital. “Ms. Evans.” The doctor held Caroline’s medical records. He asked, “Will

your husband be here to pick you up from the hospital?”

Caroline looked at the doctor, puzzled. “No. Why are you asking?” She hadn’t notified anyone that she

would be discharged today.

The doctor smiled disappointedly. “Nothing.”

After watching the doctor leave dejectedly, she continued to pack her things.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open with a bang. Caroline turned around and saw Brie charging into

the room. Her lackeys followed in behind her. “What a lively bunch,” Caroline thought.

“I finally found you, Caroline! You really know how to hide from someone!”

Caroline looked at them coldly.

Sensing that something was about to happen, the patient, nurses, and doctors crowded the door of

Caroline’s room, watching the drama.
