Chapter 216
Bogus Billionaire
Caroline returned to the office after lunch.
Many of her colleagues had just gotten back from lunch as well and were currently resting. As Caroline entered her office, everyone seemed to regain their energy and began talking about her.
âHey, what do you think will happen in the end?â
âWho knows? But I think that Caroline will be in trouble. Her family has already accused her publicly.
She has no way of marrying into the Morrison family now. Both the Evanses and the Morrisons wonât help her. Her husband is just an ordinary man. He canât do anything to help her!â
âIf you ask me, Caroline deserved this. She didnât want to be Mrs. Morrison. Instead, she chose to marry a poor taxi driver!â
âDidnât Viv mention something? It seems that Caroline did it to anger Mr. Eddy. I heard the person he likes is Carolineâs cousin. He doesnât want to marry Caroline.â
âSo, why is he still visiting Caroline? He even gave her a bunch of roses and a diamond ring!â
âMr. Morrison Senior probably forced him to do it. I have no idea why that old man likes Caroline so much.â
While everyone was talking, they suddenly heard footsteps outside the door. They quickly shut their mouths and looked over.
Seeing that it was Eddy, they all froze.
Mr. Eddy?â One of the girls stood up, blushing. She asked, âWâwhat are you doing here?â
ddy asked coldly, âIs Caroline here?â
Yâyes, sheâs in her office.â
ddy nodded and strode towards the directorâs office.
eeing him knock on the door and enter, everyone looked at each other in dismay. Didnât Caroline lose her chance of joining the Morrison mily? Why was Eddy here now?
nen Caroline saw Eddy, she frowned in displeasure. She questioned, âWhat are you doing here?â
dy was upset at Jude for ordering him to come here. But when he saw Caroline with her hair tied up and her gentle features, he felt as if had returned to the past.
heart skipped a beat at the sight.
eard you were in trouble, so I came to see you.â Then, he added, âGrandpa asked me to.â
act,he had been wanting to visit Caroline after seeing Sarah accuse her online. Yet his pride wouldnât allow him to.
ead, he had told his subordinates to tell Simon about it. Then, heâd waited for Simon to tell Jude, knowing that Jude would order him to Caroline after finding out.
ugh his methods were roundabout, he got what he wanted.
line knew that he wasnât this kind. She said dismissively, âThen, you can go home and tell Grandpa not to worry.â
pulled over a chair and sat down with a snort.
is he not going to worry? Your mother has already come forward and accused you. Just tell me if you need help, Caroline! For the of our previous relationship, I just might help you if you ask!â
ine glanced at the time. The people from Star King PR should be here any second. She didnât have the energy to deal with Eddy. âIf âs nothing else, you can go home.â
You must be here for an inspection, right?â
Although this company was owned by Eddyâs second uncle, he and Eddy were the same in everyoneâs eyes, Eddy huffed, looking over at Caroline.
