    “Why do you say that, sir?”


    “If I hadn’t forced Eddy so hard to marry Carrie, the two of them might have gotten together long ago.”


    Simon didn’t understand. He asked, “Sir, this…”


    “That child is a stubborn one. The more you force him to drink, the more he won’t. Why didn’t I realize


    this before?”


    Now that Jude had mentioned it, Simon found it true as well.


    “That’s right. You always had to expend so much effort to get Mr. Eddy to visit Ms. Evans. But when


    you purposely went against him just now, he went right off.”


    Jude sighed heavily before saying, “Though I know my intentions are good, I feel like I’m doing


    something bad. It seems like I will have to do everything the opposite way from now on.”


    Simon consoled him. “But sir, haven’t you simply found the right method of doing things? I’m sure


    that Mr. Eddy will soon realize how much he cares for Ms. Evans.”


    “I might not have that long.” Jude got up and walked to the window.


    “Lately, I feel so weak. I won’t die happy if I don’t see Eddy and Caroline together before I pass.”


    “Sir…” Simon went up behind Jude.


    “You’ve only been a little tiredtely. Rest well, and you will feel better. You will definitely live a


    long life.”


    “What’s the point of living a long life? I hope that I can get to the other side and see Giselle sooner.”


    “Sir…”


    Jude waved a hand and slowly closed his eyes. After a moment, he reopened them.


    “Have people keep a close eye on Daphne and Kirk. If something strange happens, inform me


    immediately.”


    Simon tensed at this. “Sir, is Mr. Kirk really …”

    “I asked him about it just now. He admitted that he indeed likes Caroline. However, he’s not her


    husband. Plus, from what he said, it sounds like he’s trying toe up with a way to get her and her


    husband to divorce.”


    “In that case, it means your previous suspicions were wrong?”


    “It’s still too soon to say. Whatever it is, it’s best to keep an eye out now.”


    “Yes, sir.”


    After leaving Morrison Manor, Kirk didn’t rush to the hospital, even though that was what he really


    wanted to do. He had something very important to do first.


    After more than half an hour, Kirk arrived at a vi far away, on the outskirts of Osbury.


    Sean and Charles had already been waiting there for a long time. Seeing Kirk arrive, they quickly went


    forward.


    “The three of them are being kept inside.”


    Kirk nodded and walked into the vi. He pushed the door and went inside to find only wisps of light in


    the dark interior.


    The three people tied to chairs raised their heads and looked toward the entrance.


    They had already been kept here for one day and one night. After so much time, they were now


    absolutely terrified. Their eyesight wasn’t very good, either.


    With the light shining behind him, Kirk was only a vague silhouette to them. They couldn’t see his


    features properly.


    Nevertheless, Daphne could recognize Kirk at first nce. Her heart dropped.


    Next to her, Jane was still doing her best to struggle. Even with her mouth sealed with tape, she


    kept making muffled noises in protest.


    Kirk walked before her and ripped the tape off her mouth.


    The pain made Jane gasp. Then, she burst into curses.


    “Do you know who I am? How dare you treat me so roughly? Once I get out of here, I’m not letting
