Kirk listened to Marietta babbling on as she eliminated the possible candidates,
Marietta did this three times and finally arrived at the most unlikely answer. “I–Is it Carrie?”
“Yes,” Kirk answered calmly.
On the other end of the phone, Marietta’s eyes widened in surprise. “What? Carrie is your wife?”
Kirk waited for Marietta to calm down before speaking. “Yes, she is.”
“Hang on. What’s going on here?” Marietta was so curious that she wanted to head over there and ask for details.
Kirk sat down on the chair. “It’s a long story, so I’ll tell you when we have the time. I called you to ask you for a

“What is it?”
“Carrie doesn’t know my identity, so I hope you can help me keep my secret when you visit today.”
Marietta gently rested her head on the headboard. She said, “Matthew, you’re making this difficult
for me. You know me–I’m an awful liar.”
Kirk grinned. “But you will. You should be able to do it for your daughter.”
Marietta was speechless. Kirk was indeed a businessman. He knew exactly what to say.
“All right, I’ll try,” Marietta joked. She didn’t really want to expose Kirk’s lie.
After all, although she was sharp–tongued, she was only like this with outsiders and enemies.
She was very protective of one of her own. She was just curious as to why Kirk, the wealthiest
man in Sarcozia, was with Caroline.
After hanging up the phone, Marietta lost the urge to keep sleeping. She called her assistant to
arrange for a cab and went to Caroline’s apartment.
She was eager to see what Caroline and Kirk were like as a couple.

She had been curious about Kirk since she had met him for the first time. She had wondered if a workaholic with no
interest in a relationship like Kirk would die alone.
Unexpectedly, not only had he found a partner, but his partner was her favorite person. She had to see it for
herself.
Caroline heard the doorbell just as she finished washing the ingredients. She wiped her hands dry and walked to the
door. As she was about to open the door, the bedroom door opened.
“Is it Marietta?” Kirk walked out of the room with messy hair.
“I don’t think so. It’s still early.” Caroline looked through the peephole, and she was proven wrong.

She remembered telling Marietta that she didn’t need to come so soon. She opened the door and said, “Aunt Mary,
you-”
Before she could finish her words, Marietta’s eyes landed on Kirk.
Caroline followed Marietta’s gaze and introduced him, “Aunt Mary, this is my husband, Kirk.”
“Kirk, huh…” Marietta almost laughed out loud.

She had never known that Kirk could look domestic. She had always seen him with a sullen expression. The sudden
change in style and attitude made her somewhat uncomfortable.
Since Marietta was holding in her laughter, she looked ferocious, which worried Caroline. “What’s wrong, Aunt
Mary?”
“N–Nothing … Hahaha!” Marietta couldn’t hold in her laughter any longer and burst out laughing. Caroline was
confused, while Kirk had a long face.
