Bogus Billionaire By Shining Riviera

Chapter 78

Brie had just suffered a lot at Kirk’s hands. Seeing Caroline here, she could finally have someone as her punching bag.

She wasted no time grabbing Caroline’s arm and lashing out at her, “You’re here to seduce Eddy’s second uncle, right?”

Caroline glanced sideways to look at her arm, which was stinging from Brie’s grasp. “Let go!” she

spat.

Brie didn’t listen. It was as though she’d gone mad with rage. If she couldn’t get what she wanted,

why could Caroline?

Seeing that Brie wasn’t going to let go anytime soon, Caroline grabbed her by the wrist, her fingernails sinking deeply into her flesh.

Brie yelped in pain and let go of Caroline to look at the marks on her wrist. She rushed at Caroline,

ready to tear her apart.

Caroline dodged her easily and looked up at the surveillance camera not far away from them. “Ms.

Collins, please behave,” she warned.

Howard realized that this wasn’t their territory, and if Brie continued on with that crazed look of hers, she would humiliate their family even more. Hastily, he rushed forth to stop Brie.

“Brie,” Howard called out to her. “It’s not worth it to lower your status just to deal with someone like her. Let’s go.”

Brie was unwilling to leave. “But dad, why does she get to have a meal together with Eddy’s

second uncle?”

Caroline was already in the elevator when she heard this. Her brows knitted together at Brie’s

words. Eddy’s second uncle was here too?

The door of the elevator closed slowly, blocking her sight of those two members of the Collins family. At least her mood improved now that they were out of her sight. She also felt a little excited to know that Eddy’s second uncle was here too.

It wasn’t long before Caroline reached the third floor. Her footsteps were light when she strode into the private room.

Grandpa She pushed the door open and entered the room, only to find that no one was in there Stunned, she hastily took out her phone and called Kirk Just as she turned back to the doct, she

saw him walking out of the elevator

Ending the call, she rushed over to him and tugged at his shirt “Did something happen?” She

asked, concerned.

“What could happen? Kirk raised an eyebrow

“Did Grandpa do anything to you?”

“No”

“Where’s Grandpa then?”

“The Morrisons called just now They said something was up back at their place, so he had to

leave I followed him downstairs to see him off”

Caroline let out a sigh of relief Out of the blue, she realized that she was standing especially close

to him. It was as though she were a concerned wife who was bombarding her husband withi

questions

Embarrassed, she quickly let go of him. “What did Grandpa say now that he’s seen you?”

“Nothing” Kirk told her. “He barely got the chance to say anything before they called ham, and he

left”

“Did you meet Eddy’s second uncle then?”

Kirk furrowed his brows, sensing something was off “How did you know he was here?”

“I saw Brie

The realization dawned on him right away. He changed the topic by asking. “Did you make the

coffee on the table?”

“Yep”

“Make another one for me, will you?” He’d never tried Caroline’s coffee before C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

“Sure!” Caroline answered, and they both entered the room together “De you like coffee

Somehow, Caroline thought that there was something else behind his words, and the top of hat ears burned. She lowered her head, trying to get free of his grasp in vain.

In the eat, she decided to amply shut the focus to something else. You saw Eddy’s secam

With the final ounce of reason in her, she pushed her hands against his chest. Penting, she said, Based on our agreement, we shouldn’t fall in love with each other So what are we sow?

Netting the gloon that had washed over Caroline’s face, Kirk felt his heart racing out of anxiety

Despite that, he still appeared to be as calm as ever ‘We’re adults. It’s only natural that we have

Caroline nodded and replied curtly “Ok I understand now “She bent over to pick up her shirt and
