Chapter 625
The people Eddy had sent brought Caroline to her villa’s door. Then, Edith, who had been waiting for her, helped
her inside.
As the driver watched Edith carefully help Caroline, he couldn’t help but murmur, “She’s pretty attentive in taking
care of her, but it’s really strange that the man of the house hasn’t shown up yet.”
Then, he drove the car toward the gate.
However, as he drove away, he didn’t notice a car behind him parking in the spot where he had just been.
The next second, the car’s door opened, and Kirk strode into the villa. As soon as he entered, he hugged Caroline,
who was curled up and crying on the couch.
Caroline desperately crawled into Kirk’s arms when she felt a warm and familiar embrace. Kirk stroked her back,
feeling distressed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe didn’t say anything. He simply held her quietly. Right now, there was nothing more tangible
than the companionship in silence.
Eventually, Caroline fell asleep, nestled in Kirk’s arms.
He felt heartbroken as he looked at her, who exhausted herself from crying. Jude meant so much
to Caroline. She would probably take a long time to recover from something like this.
He gently picked her up and headed to the second floor. When he reached the bedroom, his
movements became more gentle. Walking to the bed, he willed himself to be as soft and
weightless as a feather.
Even though his movements were gentle, Caroline still frowned uneasily in her sleep when he
placed her on the bed. She only relaxed her frown when Kirk leaned over and kissed her forehead.
Then, the nervousness in Kirk’s gaze slowly faded away. He sat by the bed, took his tablet, and
began to deal with the issue about Howard.
As soon as Kirk turned on his tablet, someone called him. He glanced at the phone, but he didn’t
answer the call.
Eddy was calling him. Right now, Eddy was the last person Kirk wanted to see.

Kirk’s cell phone was still ringing. It would be unreasonable for him not to show up when such a
big thing had happened.
After much deliberation, he decided to answer the phone for the sake of the big picture.
Eddy’s voice immediately came from the receiver. “Uncle Kirk.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKirk glanced at Caroline worriedly before standing up and walking toward the door. When he reached the balcony,
he asked coldly, “Is something the matter?” 1
As soon as Kirk asked that, Eddy couldn’t hold back his grief anymore.
In the eyes of outsiders, he was the aloof and omnipotent scion of the Morrisons. He was a strong
man who never showed his weak side.
However, he was still a human being who had moments of vulnerability, especially when his
closest relative passed away. “G–Grandpa is gone …”
Kirk’s heart was in turmoil.
Although Jude had always hoped for Caroline and Eddy to be together, and he could hav
potentially become an obstacle between him and Caroline, Kirk never thought of killing him to
solve his problems.
They were still family, even if they hadn’t seen each other for years.
Therefore, Kirk was still saddened by Jude’s passing. “I got it. Do you need me to do anything?”
