The moment Caroline said this, the crowd burst into an uproar."What? Is Caroline really married? And she didn't marry Eddy?""Is she really giving up on the chance to become Eddy Morrison's wife? How can this be? Everyone wants that position. Is she really that foolish?""There were rumors that Caroline married an average Joe. Could it really be true?"All this gossip spread across the venue.Across the distance between them, Kirk stared at Caroline, who stood under the lights. He wanted to go up and hug her. The urge was stronger than what he'd felt before. Yet he couldn't do it because he was also a member of the Morrison family.Below the stage, everyone was still discussing the matter in a raging flurry. Their chattering didn't stop.Caroline raised a hand, signaling them to quiet down. She confessed honestly, "My husband is just an average guy. He's not from one of the four great families, and he's not from a rich family either. "Since we're already married, we want to

Layla stared at Kirk's cold figure. As she did, he brushed past her.She'd heard Sarah complain numerous times before. Sarah had talked about Caroline's head being muddled for marrying an ordinary person. Thus, Layla had thought that the man was ugly and poor. Who would have thought that he was even more impressive than Eddy?Layla clenched her fists tightly, and her nails cut into her flesh. Only after that did her envy subside. But what good were looks? Caroline's husband was still just a poor man!…Kirk carried Caroline into the car before setting her down.Caroline kept stealing glances at him. She noticed that his lips were pursed into a thin line. He was probably mad, so she said warily, "Did I … cause you a lot of trouble?"Based on the plan, Caroline was supposed to announce her marriage to Eddy.Yet, when she'd been on stage, she remembered the villa Kirk had bought her and Sean saying that Kirk wanted to give her a home. Thinking of all this, Caroline forgot about

Eddy huffed. "I have to admit, playing hard to get really worked. I honestly started caring about you a little."He looked at the back of Caroline's head and inhaled sharply. His words were all coldly mocking.Caroline turned to stare straight at Eddy. Her gaze seemed to look right through him. "Eddy, don't think you're all that. In my eyes, you're nothing but a pile of shit!"Eddy was stunned to hear Caroline say something so crude. After a long while, he turned red with rage. "Unrefined! You're so vulgar, Caroline! It seems you've been tainted after spending so much time with that lout of a husband you have. You're even becoming so boorish!"Caroline smiled mockingly. "Yes, we're unrefined and boorish. But compared to you, a well-dressed beast, we're at least living honestly!""You!" Eddy was so furious that he wagged a finger. "You're really something! I didn't know you had such a sharp tongue! And to think I pitied you for hurting your ankle. It seems you deserve it!"After s

"Caroline, you better call him over quick! Once he apologizes, this issue will be settled," Eddy said."He didn't do anything wrong. Why should I call him here?""So you're determined to shelter him?" Eddy suddenly approached. His gaze was fixed on Caroline.Caroline met his gaze and said with open confidence, "Yes!"Eddy's eyes narrowed, and he took a step back. He scoffed. "Osbury is my turf. I can dig him out as long as he's still in this city. Things might not be so simple anymore at that point!"After saying that, Eddy turned and left.When Sarah and Dan saw this, they quickly followed Eddy out of the room.Once they were far away, Caroline quickly grabbed her phone and called Kirk.At the moment, Kirk was in a dim private room. His tie was loose around his neck, and the scent of alcohol stuck to him. Though he was in a debauched state, he was still regal.There were women around him who were eyeing him like meat. Yet when they tried to come over with some drinks, his sha

"I'm sorry. I didn't know it was you," Caroline apologized. She nervously sat Kirk down on the couch and turned the lights on. Her heart ached when she saw his injury, and she hurriedly looked for the first aid kit.Kirk wanted to tell her that she didn't have to worry about a minor injury. Before he could get the words out, he caught sight of a bra in the suitcase out of the corner of his eye, and his mind went blank. He'd asked someone to pick up some clothes and bring them to Caroline. He hadn't seen them, not even once.Kirk frowned. His desire for Caroline was burning like lava. At this moment, Caroline found the first aid kit and sat beside him. Her sweet scent filled Kirk's nostrils, stimulating his senses.Caroline didn't notice it at all. She took a cotton swab dipped in alcohol to dab the wound on Kirk's forehead. "This will hurt a little, so you must bear it." She cleaned his wound with gentle and delicate movements.Kirk swallowed with difficulty. His eyes couldn't
