Chapter 353
Bogus Billionaire
After a moment, Caroline remembered who the woman was. It was Adrianâs older sister, Andrea Sorkin.
Caroline recognized her because Andrea had helped her a lot.
Back when Caroline had still beenâwith Eddy, everyone knew that Eddy didnât like her. Sometimes, when Caroline attended events alone, some of these people were bold enough to cause trouble for her.
On many occasions, if Andrea was there, she had helped her get out of tricky situations.
Andrea was a kind and warm woman. And since she had helped Caroline before, the latter couldnât just let this matter stand now.
Caroline intentionally blinked at Daphne with an innocent look. âMs. Dawson, whatâs going on?â
she asked.
Daphne suppressed her anger and glared at Andrea. âMs. Evans, donât listen to her. This car is mine.â
âYours?â This was the first time Andrea had ever encountered someone so shameless.
âIâve already paid the deposit!â
On the second floor, the manager of the car dealership was watching the two women arguing downstairs, feeling troubled. Now, seeing another woman join the fray, he shivered in fear.
He felt that things were going to get even more out of hand now. He was done for. They wouldnât really start going at it here, right?
The manager looked at Eddy beside him, his expression troubled. Eddy also looked downstairs.
Two Porsche 911âs had arrived at the car dealership that day. He had come to drive one of them home.
When the staff went to get the car, Eddy had gone to the second floor for some coffee. In the middle of enjoying his drink, he had heard the sounds of a disagreement coming from downstairs.
The manager had been with him at the time, while no one else dared to intervene in this matter.
That was why the argument had persisted until now.
Eddy narrowed his eyes as his gaze moved past Daphne and Andrea. Then, he froze as he stared fixedly at Caroline, who was getting out of the car.
After some time without seeing her, he noticed that Caroline had changed again.
Her expression gave her some flavor, especially the indelible sadness in her eyes. Seeing her made Eddyâs heart beat out of control.
He had never imagined that Caroline would ever look so fragile, soâ¦
Caroline made Eddy want to take her in his arms and love her passionately.
His emotions became chaotic.
Downstairs, Caroline was about to speak. She looked at Daphne with a smile. âWhatâs going on, exactly? Ms. Dawson, youâre a famous person. I donât believe you would ever take what isnât yours.â
Daphneâs expression shifted as she took a deep breath. She said, âSo what if she paid the deposit?
Iâll refund her twice the amount!â
âI donât care about this little bit of money.â At Carolineâs hint, Andrea immediately became more stubborn.
âDaphne Dawson, arenât you afraid that I might tell everyone about this and turn you into a joke?â
Daphneâs expression turned darker.
Caroline blinked. She put on a faked look of concern and said, âMs. Dawson, if news of this matter gets out, your reputation might be damaged. Itâs not worth it to risk that for a car.â
Daphne frowned. She didnât recognize Andrea for who she was, but from the way Caroline spoke, Daphne felt that Caroline was standing by Andreaâs side.
Daphne smiled and said, âItâs fine. Sheâs just a nobody. Even if she puts this incident online, Iâll have the news suppressed.â
Carolineâs lips twitched as she looked over at Andrea. She said something in a low voice into Daphneâs ear, and Daphneâs expression changed.
âShâsheâs really ⦠a Sor-â
Caroline nodded. Then, she said in a voice only the two of them could hear, âIf she makes noise about this, you might not be able to cover the matter up even if Eddyâs second uncle helps you. After all, this is Easton.â
