There was a voice screaming in Caroline’s mind. She would have to announce her marriage to Eddy soon. She couldn’t accept such an expensive gift now.

But

Caroline ducked 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. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

“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 playing hard to get!”

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

She glared 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 ankle twisted, and pain shot through her leg.

Caroline bit her lip. In pain, she looked up.

Eddy didn’t notice this. He frowned. “Stop pretending. This trick won’t work on me. Don’t you know that? But-”

Eddy folded his arms and approached with a wicked smile. “I see you’re good at getting on my family’s good side. Why don’t you try getting on mine?”

His words stunned Caroline. Her body shook all over.

So all her efforts in the past eight years were nothing to him?

Caroline gritted her teeth tightly. She scoffed. “I always thought I didn’t deserve you. After all, you’re the heir of the Morrison family. But now, I think you don’t de
