Chapter 846
There were plenty of people in Macldo who fit the bill. It wouldn’t be difficult for Avery to find someone to
get rid of Caroline.
Back at Yates Manor, there was a noticeable change in the atmosphere. Kirk and Caroline were seated rather far apart from each other. Betty was bemused by this.
“Sean, what happened between the two of them? Hadn’t Carrie been sticking to Kirk like glue for the past few days? Why are they …” Her voice trailed off toward the end.
Sean chuckled and said, “He told Caroline that his heart already belongs to someone.”
“But isn’t that someone Caroline herself?” asked Betty.
“Yes, but he can’t let her know that.”
Betty was perplexed. “Why not?”
“Mom, have you forgotten?” Sean glanced at the couple from the back and sighed.
“Kirk is someone really important to Caroline. Even when Mr. Morrisson Senior’s death scarred her, she chose to stay by Kirk’s side and actively received treatment.
“Nobody dares to mention anything remotely related to Kirk, lest it triggers her and all hell breaks loose.”
As he said this, he suddenly remembered what had happened with Eddy the last time.
Eddy must have realized how significant Kirk was to Caroline because he had relentlessly mentioned Kirk
to trigger her. He was really crazy.
He should be thankful that Kirk’s full attention was on Caroline now. That was the only reason he was still
alive.
But that wouldn’t be for long.
Considering how they had been together last night, it wouldn’t be long before Kirk could finally reveal
everything to Caroline.
Sean wished that the couple could bury the hatchet as soon as possible.
Coincidentally, Caroline could no longer keep up with their silent battle and said to Kirk, “You don’t need
to stay by my side all the time. I’m fine.”
Whenever she closed her eyes, she felt as if she were transported back to that road with the attacker. But
she could overcome this.
Even though there was a distance between them, Kirk could see her visibly trembling. He sympathized
with her.
There was no doubt that one would become mentally vulnerable after losing one’s memories. But then this incident had also happened. If it had been someone with weak mental fortitude, they would have
collapsed long ago.
“I like staying by your side.”
Hearing these words made Caroline annoyed. She chided, “It’s better if you don’t talk like this. How would
it make the woman you like feel? She would definitely be hurt by it.”
Kirk felt a pang of sadness in his heart. He gazed at her and replied, “She wouldn’t.” Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Caroline thought he meant that “the woman” wouldn’t be able to hear those words. She retorted, “You
can’t be too sure. Anything is possible in this world.”
With his gaze fixed on her, Kirk replied, “Is that so? Do you think that she would hear it?”
As she caught the sorrowful look in his eyes, her heart softened.
Caroline started to feel a surge of mixed feelings. She let her guard down and answered, “I don’t know. But if I were her, I wouldn’t like you being this nice to another woman.”
She lowered her head slightly and pursed her lips.
Kirk was amused by that. He wondered when this adorable wife of his would finally realize that she was
the one who had his heart.
