Chapter 809
Bogus Billionaire
Two hours were just that precious to Kirk. He didnât want to waste a single moment of it.
If he could, he would use all his wealth to make those two hours infinite. Unfortunately, he was an ordinary person who was helpless against the power of time.
Soon, two hours passed by. Kirk had no choice but to leave the room before Caroline woke up.
After walking out of the room, Kirk saw Sean and Gwen, who had arrived at some point. Adrian was still there too.
Adrian had obviously figured out why Sean was here. So he mocked Kirk when he saw him, âThatâs not cool of you, Mr. Kirk. Youâve agreed to let me take Caroline away. But you still asked your friend to-â
Kirk said calmly, âBefore you worked with me, you should have known thereâs no way I would let you take her away.â
âIndeed, but I didnât know you were Eddyâs second uncle at that time. If I had known your identity, I would never have foolishly proposed to work together.â
Kirk walked up to Adrian and said, âName your price.â
Adrianâs expression shifted at his words. âAre you trying to use money to degrade my sincerity?â
âNo, I just want to repay you as Carolineâs husband.â
Adrianâs expression turned gloomy. âKirk, if you really want to thank me, donât use money to do that!
âJust like you, I donât want Caroline to marry Eddy. The reason why I helped her is because I love her. I want her to be happy.â
Kirk narrowed his eyes as well.
Realizing that they might fight, Sean quickly stood between them.
âEnough of this. Caroline will wake up soon. If you guys keep fighting, it wonât be good if she sees Kirk.
It may worsen her condition again.â
Sure enough, Kirk and Adrian stopped arguing when they heard that.
âIâm leaving,â Kirk spat. Then, he walked to the door.
However, Adrian stood still.
still.
Gwen asked, âArenât you leaving, Mr. Adrian?â
âCaroline didnât act strangely when she saw me. She doesnât have a deep impression of me. It was just like⦠the first time I met her after returning to Easton. She had completely forgotten about me.â
Adrian smiled wryly, but then, he smiled brightly. âIn other words, my presence wonât affect her at all.
Also, I want to know who sheâll leave with now that sheâs lost her memory.â
Gwen looked over at Sean. Sean was hesitant as well.
At this moment, they heard Carolineâs confused voice through the half-open door of the room. âWhere is this? What am I doing here?â
Hearing her voice, Gwen walked in first. Sean and Adrian also followed her into the room.
When Caroline saw Gwen in the treatment room, she immediately hugged her like a cub finding its mother.
âGwen, where am I? What am I doing here?â
âCalm down, Carol. Weâre in a safe place.â
When Caroline heard Gwenâs assurance, her breathing gradually calmed down. While looking at her surroundings, she asked, âShouldnât I be at the wedding? Why am I here?â
âDonât you remember what happened at the wedding?â
Several choppy images crossed Carolineâs mind. âI-I think someone came to take me away ⦠But Eddy showed up, and he brought a bunch of people to stop usâ¦
âThen, he said something⦠I forgot. I donât know what he said⦠Then, I collapsed. Hang on ⦠S-
Someone saved meâ¦â
