    Seeing this, Kirk took some tissues to wipe Caroline’s tears. As he did, he coaxed, “Why are you


    crying, my dear little crybaby?”


    Caroline’s eyes were still red, but she retorted, “I’m not crying. I just got dust in my eye.”


    Kirk looked around the room. “All right, whatever you say. But darling, can you finish the spaghetti


    arrabbiata I made?”


    Caroline smiled tearfully at his words, biting her lip. “Okay.”


    After their dinner, Kirk and Caroline watched TV downstairs. No one talked during this time. At 11:


    00 pm, Caroline got up and went upstairs.


    After a moment, she said to Kirk, “Kirk …”


    “Yeah?”


    “I’ll always be with you, no matter how difficult things be.” Although there was nothing


    usual about her words, she seemed to be making an oath.


    Kirk looked at her gently. Her reassuring words immediately put him at ease. “Okay, you should


    get some rest.”


    Caroline nodded and went upstairs to rest.


    When the door closed, Kirk immediately dropped his smile. He took out his phone and dialed


    Eddy’s number.


    Eddy quickly answered the phone. “What’s the matter, Uncle Kirk?”


    “Where are you?”


    “I’m at Grandpa’s ce.” In a few days, Eddy had been arranging Jude’s funeral. He had suddenly


    felt an emptiness in his chest, so he had gone to Morrison Manor, trying to find somefort.


    Kirk asked coldly, “Did Uncle Jude say anything to Caroline before he passed?”


    “No.” Eddy was confused.


    “He just told us that his biggest regret was that he didn’t get to see me and Caroline together. Why


    are you asking, Uncle Kirk?”

    Kirk was shaken. He finally understood the reason for Caroline’s strange behavior tonight. What


    she wanted to talk about wasn’t his true identity, but rather Jude’sst words.


    “Where did you say you were?” Kirk asked, gritting his teeth.


    “At Morrison Manor. Uncle Kirk, what’s wrong?” Eddy asked, thinking Kirk was acting strange.


    “Wait for me there. I’ll go see you now.”


    After he said that, Kirk strode out of the vi. However, after a few steps, he seemed to have


    thought of something. He turned back, went up to the second floor, and opened the door to his


    bedroom.


    Caroline was wiping her hair dry when she heard the door opening. She turned back to Kirk and


    smiled. She asked, “Are you going to bed too?”


    “The office called just now and said they needed me for something. So I won’t be home tonight.”


    Caroline put her towel down. “It isn’t a big problem, right?”


    “I don’t think so. I’ll be leaving now. You should rest early, and don’t worry about me.”


    “Okay.”


    Caroline saw Kirk off. She waited until he drove away before closing the door. However, she still


    felt very uneasy.


    Ever since Kirk had promised he wouldn’t go out at night anymore, he rarely left the housete.


    Even if it was something work–rted, he would blow it off.


    But since he was going out sote now, the issue probably wasn’t a simple one.


    Caroline felt restless at the thought. She couldn’t sleep at all.
