Chapter 62

Ne Mis heart had been hit by a hammer. He tightened his fists.

Jude askest Carine again, “Does that man really treat you well?”

Caroline aimed it and lowered her head. Her fair skin reddened as she blushed.

Jude had once been in love himself. When he saw her reaction, he swayed. His breathing came faster.

“DAY” Tromas quickly went forward to support Jude’s back. He patted Jude’s back to soothe him.

Caroline scooted closer, “Grandpa ***

Jade’s breathing slowly steadied. He lifted a hand and caressed Caroline’s cheek with it. “I’m fine Just fine …”

Caroline’s eyes went red with tears, “Grandpa, I didn’t mean it. You can hit me or scold me. You can do anything. Just don’t get mad and act your hea Jude chuckled and said, “Silly girl. I’m happy that you told me about this. But I care about you the most.

I’m just so worried because I don’t know what kind of man you married. Can I meet him?”

Caroline was overjoyed. She was about to answer, but then she shut her mouth.

“What don’t you want to tell me?”

“It’s not that Grandpa.” Caroline stared at the ground. Shy, she said, “I was thinking I should ask him before making a decision.”

A complicated look flashed in Jude’s eyes as he looked at Caroline. He then laughed and said, “Yes, you should ask him first. Maybe he doesn’t want to meet an old man like me.”

Sarah and Dan hadn’t expected that Jude would react this way. After all, he’d always wanted Caroline and Eddy to end up together. Seeing this, they both panicked.

“Mr. Morrison Senior, don’t listen to Caroline’s nonsense! We’ve met the man. He’s a proper sort, but he’s just some guy! Caroline is the granddaughter–in–law you want. Isn’t it a joke for her to marry some random person?”

Sarah added. “That’s right, Mr. Morrison Senior, Caroline’s just a child. As adults, how can we just let them do whatever they want?”

Jude answered. “In our eyes, they might still be children, but we can’t ignore that they’re all properly grown up. If I meet Caroline’s husband and find him questionable, I won’t agree to them staying together.”

“Mr. Morrison Senior —*

“Alright, that’s enough.” Tired. Jude got up. “Eddy, give me a hand.”

Eddy was stunned and rooted to the spot. It was only when Thomas nudged him that he reacted.

Looking torn, he helped Jude outside. Before they crossed the threshold, Eddy looked back to glance at Caroline.

Caroline was still on the ground, her expression demure. He’d always hated her looking like that. Now, though, he had complicated feelings about it.

The other members of the Morrison family followed Jude and left the banquet hall.

Sarah looked at Caroline and raised a hand to slap her. She vented all her rage on Caroline. “You useless little-!”

Caroline’s ankle was hurt. After spending so much time on the floor, her reflexes were slow. Just as the slap was about to land, Caroline closed her eyes.

However, the tight slap never landed on her cheek. Instead, a howl rang out.

When she opened her eyes. Caroline saw someone standing before her.

Warmth flooded her heart.

“You! You again!

The doctor didn’t hear him clearly. He asked. “Wheat?

“What if she hurt her bones?”

The doctor got a fright. He swallowed. “She only sprained her ankle. It’s not that fragile…*

“But what if?”

“If you’re worried, we can do a check.”

“No!” Kirk frowned. “She must be hospitalized!”

The doctor was confused.

Caroline also thought that Kirk was overreacting. She tugged at the edge of Kirk’s shirt. “You don’t need to “Quiet!” After Kirk shouted, he met Caroline’s pitiful gaze and suddenly realized something. He softened his features and said. “It’s better to recuperate in the hospital.”

Caroline paused for a second before answering, “But it’s expensive to stay in this hospital”
