Chapter 192

Sarah looked like she had suffered a blow. She slapped Caroline in the face. “I’m your mother! Since when did you become so disobedient?

The slap rang clear and loud. However, the sound was lost in the bustling crowd.

Caroline’s head turned from the force of the slap. She gritted her teeth and looked back after a moment. Her gaze was frosty as she glared at Sarah.

Sarah felt cold all over. She looked at Caroline in fear.

Sarah was acting as though she had been slapped.

The way Caroline looked at her now made her feel like she was looking at a stranger.

“You’re my mother. But let me ask you something. Do you still remember my birthday?”

Sarah shuddered violently. After a pause, she said hesitantly, “O–of course I do.”

Caroline could tell at a glance that Sarah was lying.

She recalled her birthdays from the past. Even though they had been in different countries, Sarah and Dan would still fly abroad to celebrate her birthday with her.

But because she didn’t marry Eddy, her parents had forgotten it.

It was as if she wasn’t even their daughter.

She was only a pawn.

Her parents remembered details about her because she had value.

Caroline suddenly thought of Kirk.

She suddenly wanted to hug him so badly!

Caroline straightened her back. She looked at Sarah, who was still trying to argue. But Caroline had no intention to keep listening. She turned around and walked into the crowd.

Sarah tried to follow, but she couldn’t find Caroline in the crowd at all.

At Saint Pierre Grand Hotel, Eddy was feeling uneasy.

“Grandpa, is Uncle Kirk not here yet?”

Jude glanced at Eddy before chastizing, “Can’t you settle down? Isn’t this just a meeting with your second aunt?”

Eddy sat down and smiled. “I’m just really curious, Grandpa. I can’t help but wonder what woman would make Uncle Kirk settle down and marry.”

Jude’s eyebrows furrowed. His expression was unreadable. “You’ll find out very soon.”

After a pause, Jude asked, “How are you and Caroline?”

Eddy recalled the unpleasant incident the other day. His expression became gloomy. “Grandpa, I think you’d better forget about it. I think she likes her current life.”

“And you’re alright with that?” Jude asked, banging his fist on the table.

Eddy leaned back and looked up at the ceiling. “I don’t mind it.”

The scene of Caroline talking about her husband flashed in his mind.

She had been so confident. There was also a sweetness about it that he couldn’t ignore.

+15 BONOS Caroline’s love …

Eddy’s heart trembled. He suddenly panicked and nearly fell from his chair, Just then, the door swung open, blocking the sight of his awkward fumble.

“Mr. Morrison Senior and Mr. Eddy, Mr. Kirk is here,” said the butler, Simon. Then, Simon’s body angled to the side.

The next second, Jude saw Kirk standing in the doorway in a smart sult.

But Kirk was alone.

Jude maintained a smile on his face. “Where’s your wife?”

Kirk’s brows furrowed minutely. He took a few steps into the private room and revealed the woman behind him.

She was a beautiful woman, but nothing about her was memorable. (1)

Her face had obviously gone through some cosmetic surgery. She seemed like just another doll from the plastic surgery factory.
