Caroline was in critical condition. That knowledge made Kirk's gaze darken as a murderous aura washed over him. The nurse shuddered as she recalled how he had burst in. She worried that he would punch her. Thank goodness he had moved far away and was busy making a call."Ask the blood bank to prepare for a blood transfusion immediately," Kirk said while gripping his phone, his voice grave. His assistant hesitated on the other end of the line. "Mr. Morrison, didn't you say you don't want others to know that you're back—""Just do what I say!" "Understood." The assistant paled and did as he was told. After hanging up, Kirk closed his eyes and slowly let out a sigh. He was still mad and had not let go of it. He returned to the operation room to see the red light above the door still lit, as though it was prophesying something. …Half an hour later, Sean walked out of the operation room looking worn out. "Caroline's fine. She'll wake up at around night time."The frown on Ki

Kirk clenched his fists as he stared at his reflection in the glass. His assistant, Charles Lane, waited for a reply but was met with silence, so he asked, "Mr. Morrison, about our next course of action …" "Toss him to the outskirts of the city to rot." "But we're in Easton. This country isn't our territory," Charles reminded him hastily. Kirk's knuckles turned white, and his gaze darkened. "Then make him suffer for a few days. Let him go only when he learns how to keep his mouth shut." "Alright." Kirk eased the grip on his phone, emotions in chaos. He turned to see Caroline enjoying the food he had bought for her, her face glowing while she ate. She looked just like a bunny that just got its paws on some carrots, and the frown on his face gradually vanished. … Sean was a true professional. It only took three days for Caroline to move around freely. "Just one more follow-up, and you're good to go." Sean grinned."Thank you, Dr. Yates," said Caroline. Sean glanced

In the store, a woman in an elaborate dress sat at the counter trying on different bracelets. Gwen saw her and, disgusted, she exclaimed, "It's Brie Collins!" Caroline's hands balled into fists immediately.The Collinses had devised the downfall of the Evanses many years ago. After that, the Collinses took over her family's place as one of the four most influential families in the city. However, they were different from the other families with considerable lineage because, being nouveau riche, they did not have concrete support or power. So others often criticized them, notably after Caroline returned to the country.As the heiress of the Morrisons, Caroline had gone through rigorous etiquette training since birth. Regardless of the size of any event, she always appeared elegant and poised. However, the children of the Collins family were different and often made a fool of themselves in the eyes of the media. Even Brie Collins, the favorite daughter of Howard Collins—the head of th

Once again, Gwen's imagination rendered Caroline speechless. "If he truly is some rich man's son, why would he marry me so quickly?" Gwen scratched her head, searching for an answer that never came to her. Caroline smiled, amused. "Fine. I'll ask him about it when I go back home. Then we'll get our answer." "Oh, right," Gwen said, beaming. After the two of them said goodbye, Caroline gave Kirk a call. "Let's have dinner together tonight." Even though they were married, they stayed in their respective homes. Strictly speaking, they had never even had lunch or dinner together. "Sure," Kirk replied, the corner of his lips already tilting upward in a smile. "Well then, come to my house. What do you want for dinner? I'll go buy the ingredients to make it." "Just cook something you like." Eddy's face suddenly popped into her mind. Whenever she made dinner for him over the past eight years, he would always list out the dishes that he wanted. He never asked her about the food she l

"Why don't you spend your time being a pushy parent on improving yourself instead?" Sarah recognized Kirk's voice right away. Raising her voice, she said, "My family's affairs are none of your business! Where are you two? Don't you dare tell me you're at Caroline's!""Don't you worry." Kirk had a bad impression of his mother-in-law. His voice dripped with bitterness. "If Caroline's your daughter, stop telling her to marry Eddy Morrison. She doesn't like hearing it, and neither do I." Sarah snorted derisively. "How dare you compare yourself with Eddy. He's the most influential figure in Osbury. In Easton, no one could—" Kirk hung up instantly. Caroline noticed his pursed lips and thought that he had gotten pissed off again. This time though, she was not afraid of him. On the contrary, she felt something warm spread in her chest. "Thank you," she said. Kirk looked up from the phone and was met with her clear, pristine gaze. He wanted to say something, but the words lodged in hi
