Chapter 222

“But why would Uncle Kirk ask Brittany to help Caroline?” Eddy asked Jude in confusion.

Jude was angry, but he didn’t have conclusive evidence about whether Kirk and Caroline were married.

So, he swallowed back his anger and said, “What do you think?”

Eddy thought for a moment before saying hesitantly, “Because Uncle Kirk likes Caroline?”

Jude nodded, pleased at his answer. But Eddy’s following words upset him even more.

“But that’s normal. Caroline is especially fond of elders like you both. Don’t you like her too, Grandpa?”

Seeing that his grandson didn’t understand, Jude simply stopped talking about it. “Call Brittany over, and I’ll ask her myself.”

Brittany had just received a call from Charles, telling her to be cautious around Caroline from now on.

Just as she’d recovered from her shock, she got a call from Eddy, saying Jude wanted to see her.

Brittany stared at the phone, impressed. Caroline was really amazing.

Brittany went to visit Jude.

Jude got straight to the point. “I heard you’re handling Caroline’s case. I’m surprised. Didn’t you only handle PR cases for A–listers, and they had to have a certain reputation for them? Caroline isn’t any of those, so why did you help her?”

Brittany smiled. She explained, “Since you’re asking me, I won’t hide it from you. I heard rumors that Mr. Eddy’s second uncle is planning to get into the entertainment industry.

‘I know you still dote on Caroline despite her no longer being engaged to your grandson. If I can help solve her predicament, it would definitely help me build some bridges.”

Jude looked at Brittany with sharp eyes and asked, “So, you’re helping Caroline, so I would help you?”

It wasn’t because Kirk had asked her, like he suspected.

Brittany’s expression remained neutral as she replied, “That’s right.”

Jude looked at her attentively but didn’t notice any signs of her lying. So he waved his hand and let Brittany leave.

Was he overthinking things? Was there nothing between Caroline and Kirk?

When Caroline got off work, she called Gwen to ask if she wanted a big meal.

Gwen had just been discharged from the hospital. She had been eating lightly for the past few days and wanted something big. “Sure.”

“Do you want Sean to come along?” Caroline joked.

Gwen blushed. She hesitated for a while before saying, “Suit yourself.”

Caroline said merrily, “All right. I’ll make an extra serving.”

Gwen didn’t refuse, so Caroline knew that she agreed to Sean coming.

It was already 6 pm when Caroline finished buying the ingredients for dinner. Fortunately, Jack helped and saved her the trouble of carrying them. When she arrived home, she invited Jack to have dinner with them.

Jack refused without thinking. He wouldn’t dare eat the food made by his boss‘ wife. That would just be asking to get fired.

Caroline went into her house and changed her shoes. As she was washing the ingredients, Kirk returned home.

When Kirk saw her busy in the kitchen, he put on his apron and helped her.

Caroline smiled at his domestic appearance. She was realheal +15 BONOS “Ignore his Gwen coldly swatted Sean away, but her face was slightly red She said. “We’re still not boyfriend and girfriend.”

“Then, what are you both doing?

“Were on three–month probation. If we pass the probation, we’ll be boyfriend and girlfriend.”

“How Interesting.” Caroline lowered her head and chopped the vegetables She ordered. “You guys should talk outside. You’ll get in the way if you stay crowded in hars.”

Kirk refused. “I can help you Caroline pushed him out of the kitchen. “No thanks”

Kirk refused to let un, but Caroline heartlessly kicked him out of the kitchen, closing the door behind her “Darling” Kirk opened a gap in the door and asked, “just want to ask one question, wave you one after that.”

“What?

“Did you buy the grapes?”

Caroline blinked in contusion. She said. “Yeah, I did. Why?

Kiri smirked. He said nothing else, but Caroline could tell he was sinaset. She didn’t understand him.

Men would be any with the simplest things.

Not long after slet Gwen came in “Can you just wait outside? Caroline asked Gwen chuckled before moving closer to Caroline. She asked worriedly, Carol about your mother**

Gwen was speechless.

“Oh, he’s calling you ‘honey‘ now?” Caroline looked al Gwen with a smile. She said teasingly, “You guys are making great progress, Gwen.”
