Bogus Billionaire Chapter 633
After hanging up, Caroline played Gwen's super long voice message. It started with Gwen guffawing. "Carol, do you know who I bumped into when I went to visit my mom at the hospital just now? I met Eddy!""He's wrapped in bandages like a mummy!" she exclaimed. "The doctors and nurses said that one of the elders in the Morrison family beat him up!" "This is karma at its best!" Gwen laughed and added, "Just who was the person who did this to him?" Caroline didn't respond. She just listened quietly to Gwen. Perhaps it was because Jude had taken a bullet for her that she didn't find any of this funny. Although she disliked Eddy and his family, he was Jude's grandson. Gwen abruptly noticed that Caroline's status remained "typing …" for quite some time. Gingerly, she messaged Caroline again. "Carol, I shouldn't have said that, right?"When Caroline saw the message, she froze momentarily before smiling wryly at the screen to reply. "Nope. It's my problem." "What's wrong?"

"Okay. Let's meet at Mayflower Square then?" asked Caroline."Alright," Sean replied. "I'll head there right away." Now that Sean had agreed to it, Caroline got ready to head out. Edith noticed this and asked, "Madam, where are you going?""Shopping." "Where?" The question made Caroline frown a little. "Mayflower Square. What's the matter?""It's nothing," said Edith. "I just wanted to know if I could tag along."The suspicion in Caroline's eyes vanished upon hearing that. "Where do you want to go? I can take you along with me." "Never mind. We're not headed in the same direction," Edith said. "I'll take the bus there.""Okay then. Take care. I'm leaving.""You too, madam." After seeing Caroline off, Edith hurried to message Kirk and inform him of Caroline's whereabouts. After Caroline picked up Gwen, they both headed straight to Mayflower Square. On the way, though, they got stuck in a traffic jam. "You must be kidding me!" Gwen exclaimed as she poked her head

Gwen tried to stop herself from giving it away, but Caroline still noticed that something was wrong with her. "What's wrong? Why aren't you talking?" Caroline asked and turned to follow Gwen's gaze. Gwen thought of raising her hands to block Caroline's view, but it was all too late. The latter's foot hit the brakes, causing the car to come to an abrupt halt. "Carol," said Gwen as she looked at Caroline's startled expression. "Don't get mad yet. Maybe he has his reasons for doing this." She turned to look in Kirk's direction once again, but he had gotten into a car. "Let's tail him and see where he's headed. We shouldn't let history repeat itself and misunderstand him again," Gwen pouted all while tugging at Caroline's sleeve. For a moment, Caroline pursed her lips in silence. "No matter what he does later on, I'll beat him up when we catch him red-handed, and you can't stop me by then!" "I won't! I won't!" Gwen said in haste, worried about Caroline's condition. "Let me

"Kirk, where are you now?" Sean asked. Stopping in his tracks, Kirk glanced up at the building before him and said in a lowered voice, "The old villa."The word "villa" was all it took for Sean to know exactly where Kirk was.It was the place Kirk had purchased right after coming back to Easton to settle the urgent matter regarding Caroline. After being captured, Howard had also been sent to the old villa. Hence, Kirk had probably gone back there to see Howard. Figuring this out, Sean quickly told him, "Don't go and see Howard. Caroline, Gwen, and I were supposed to meet at Mayflower Square, but she changed routes on her way here."Sean continued, "She isn't here yet. I'm afraid that something happened to her." "What?" Kirk already had a hand on the doorknob, but he turned around right after hearing Sean's words. He was about to tell Sean something when he heard the guard's voice. "Missus, I've told you that this is an old residential area," said the guard. "No one com

Looking as pale as a sheet, Caroline pushed through the door. That villa right there was …Ignoring the chauffeur, Caroline swept her eyes around the house. It was an old and unfurnished villa. There was dust everywhere. She could even see footsteps on the ground. The footsteps were clear, so the person they belonged to probably came in here not long ago.She glanced at the footsteps and thought that the person's shoe size was similar to Kirk's "Carol, is Kirk here?" Gwen asked after entering the villa and seeing the footsteps. "He probably is." Caroline took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. She then followed the footsteps forward. Soon, they saw a basement. Its door was open. Panic washed over Gwen, and she gripped Caroline's hand. "Carol, this place gives me the creeps. It could be dangerous here. We shouldn't head in." Caroline considered the suggestion and said, "You can stay outside. I'll go in there alone. If I don't come back up after half an hour—"

"I thought it was just a prank. I had nothing to lose anyway, so I came here to see for myself," said Kirk. "I didn't expect to meet you two here. How did you know about this place?" "Says the perpetrator," Gwen complained. "Why didn't you tell Carol that you came here for Howard? Why did you lie by telling her that you were on a business trip?"You made us think that you're up to no good again." Gwen wasn't pleased. Hearing this, Kirk turned to Caroline to apologize to her. "Sorry, darling. It's not that I didn't want to tell you about it. I was just afraid that you would …"It dawned on Gwen that she had misunderstood Kirk all this time. Howard was the person who had caused Jude's death, while Caroline had witnessed the entire thing. She hadn't even recovered from the trauma that Howard had caused her. So seeing Howard was akin to sending her on a trip down memory lane to the day of Jude's death. Gwen regretted her decision terribly. She shouldn't have brought Caroline

"You might not have met him," said Gwen. "But he might've seen you lots of times before. Think about it." She counted her fingers and added, "Besides the incident related to Howard last time, he even helped you with the PR problem during Mr. Morrison Senior's banquet back then. "Why would he keep an eye on you if he had no feelings for you?" Caroline knitted her brows. Gwen's words made sense. After all, nothing came for free, and no one would be so kind for no reason at all."But you shouldn't worry about it too much." Gwen continued, "You're attending Mr. Morrison Senior's funeral soon, right? You'll get to see Eddy's second uncle there."By then, you can poke around and be discreet when you ask him about it," said Gwen. "If we overthink things, you'll just have to avoid him in the future. If he has eyes for you, though, you would have to hurry and ask Kirk to resign." "I know." Caroline nodded to show her understanding. Gwen patted her on the shoulder to reassure h

"Just kill me, will you? Please, Kirk! Just kill me!" Kirk watched as Howard begged for mercy. He felt as though he were watching a lowlife squirm and wail in agony, and he sneered at Howard. Just then, they heard the sounds of police sirens coming from outside. Howard's eyes shone with hope. "Caroline must've called the police," he said. "You deserved it! It's all because you didn't tell her the truth about your identity. She didn't know that you were the one who abducted me. So now, the police are here." Despite Howard's taunts, Kirk merely stared down at him as if he were a pathetic person. Slowly, he said, "Those are my men."His words shattered Howard's illusion of hope. Howard's eyes turned wide in disbelief as he stared at Kirk. How could Kirk do something like this just so Caroline would believe in him?"Aren't you … afraid of retri—" Howard coughed up blood. "No," came Kirk's reply. "You'd better think it through. Will you be good so you can go to a better plac
