Chapter 65


    Everyone in the audience noticed this action. They got the message immediately. Excited, they


    encouraged Caroline to make her announcement.


    The people who’d be affected by the marriage each wore a different expression. In the lounge, Kirk’s


    face was as ck as thunder as he watched the surveince footage.


    He felt close to losing his cool.


    “This matter is very important to me.” Caroline smiled


    cked her head and looked at the proof of Kirk’s sincerity. She looked up again and regarded Kirk’s


    features. Her thoughts were all a mess. Her eyes filled with tears yet again.


    “What is it?” Kirk tilted Caroline’s head up. His tone was filled with affection but also a slight irritation.


    “You’re such a crybaby.”


    After saying that, Kirk kissed Caroline lightly on the temple.


    The feeling of being treasured made Caroline’s heart sing.


    “I’m not ” Caroline pushed Kirk away and stepped backward. She was trying hard not to be seduced by


    him. “I should head back. If I stay too long, Grandpa will look for me.”


    Kirk watched Caroline leave and stared at the discarded property deed. He frowned.


    Caroline was unsettled. Her footsteps were so rushed that she nearly crashed into Eddy as he walked


    over.


    Eddy ducked aside. He mocked, “Still trying to throw yourself at me?”


    Caroline’s emotions were heavy, and she didn’t want to get into a fight with Eddy. She emotionlessly


    circled Eddy and walked off.


    However, Eddy pulled her to a stop after only a few steps. “Caroline, you have to stop ying hard to


    get!”


    Caroline reacted as if his touch were a snake bite and shook him off immediately.

    She red at him. “Eddy, don’t act so arrogantly. I admit that I used to love you, but the person I loved


    was only an illusion. Wealthy,


    educated, and a talented businessman. However, after getting married, I realized that you’re nothing


    compared to my husband.”


    Although Kirk didn’t have much money or business acumen, he was still much better than Eddy!


    Even if their marriage was a contractual one, Kirk still did his duty as a husband. He gave her the best


    of everything. But what about Eddy?


    Caroline had cared for him for eight years. It was eight whole years. Eddy had never given her a smile,


    much less a gift.


    “What did you say?” Angered, Eddy took hold of Caroline’s neck. When he saw her bright eyes, his


    animal instincts took over.


    It was only after a moment that he calmed down. He scoffed. “He’s nobody. He doesn’t deserve to be


    mentioned in the same sentence as me. Caroline, you’ll really do anything to get a rise out of me. Too


    bad! I won’t fall for it!”


    Caroline gave him a forced smile and tried to avoid him again. She felt like talking to him was a waste


    of her precious time.


    She stepped forward, but Eddy stopped her again.


    This time, Caroline didn’t manage to get a solid foothold. Her a


    warmly. It looked as though she was thinking about the past. “I’ve been waiting for this day ever since I


    was a little girl. I even thought I wouldn’t make it to this day. But it’s here now! I have someone to thank


    Caroline once again looked over at Eddy.


    When Kirk saw this, he tightened his fists. His knuckles were white.

    “He showed me that the world is a warm ce. He showed me that kindness doesn’t always have an


    ulterior motive. He’s like a light, brightening up my life


    The crowd was touched by her honest confession. Even Eddy was affected by her words. Even if he


    knew that Caroline was only exaggerating…


    The next second, Eddy’s eyes narrowed. He looked at Kirk, who’d appeared on stage. He was wearing


    a dark expression.


    Kirk was shrouded in darkness, and he looked like a demon. He red sharply over at Eddy.


    Eddy could feel the look cut him.


    Kirk was standing in a secluded spot. Besides, everyone was focusing on Caroline. Thus, no one


    noticed him there.


    His gaze was cold. He walked slowly toward Caroline, who was bathed in light. It was like darkness


    trying to consume a me.


    Eddy was taken aback. He wanted to shout for Kirk to stop, but he couldn’t even manage a word. Not a


    sound came from his mouth.


    Caroline saw that Kirk was almost out of the shadows and would be revealed to everyone soon. Her


    tone changedpletely. “To me, he’s very, very important. So I think it’s unfair and cruel to him that I


    keep some things unsaid.”


    Caroline paused. She smiled with all her might. “What I want to announce today is=”


    Everyone held their breath.


    From their table at the back, Sarah and Dan eagerly anticipated what wasing.


    Sitting in her wheelchair, La had a cruel and confident smile.


    Caroline’s gaze traveled over everyone’s faces. She memorized each of their expressions.


    When she looked away, she found Kirk standing to the side. She was stunned, but she shot him a


    dazzling smile.


    That look shocked Kirk with its beauty.


    Then, Caroline said, “We’re already married. And he’s not Eddy Morrison!“
