"Mr. Zellen, do you know something about this?"Simon quickly avoided Eddy's gaze. "I … don't know.""You must know something!" Eddy clamped his hand on Simon's. "Hurry up and tell me!"Simon was helpless. "Mr. Eddy, I … really don't know anything. Maybe he just has the same name?""The same name?""That's right." Realizing that Eddy was loosening his grip, Simon continued, "Mr. Eddy's, I think you should focus on handling Mr. Morrison Senior's funeral. "There's nothing more important than making sure he has a smooth send-off."With that, Eddy was completely convinced. "Once Grandpa's funeral has been settled, I'll go and ask her about it."Simon wanted to speak but couldn't manage to. After some thought, he reminded Eddy, "Mr. Eddy, there are some things that are … better not known.""Why?" Eddy shot Simon a strange look. "Even if Caroline knows Uncle Kirk, that's … nothing much."Although he said this, his heart was beating like a drum. He had the feeling that somethin

Caroline was still angry as she walked off. She really felt that there was something wrong with Eddy. In the past, when she had wanted to marry him, he had been so reluctant. Now that she had gotten over him, he was the one who made it seem like he wanted to marry no one else but her. If it was because of Jude's dying wish, then he really didn't need to do that. After all, there was no way she was going to divorce Kirk.After calming herself down, Caroline went off to deal with other matters. Until dinnertime, she managed to avoid seeing Eddy. When she got some free time, she gave Simon a heads-up before going upstairs for some rest.Once she got upstairs, Caroline went to a guest room. Opening the door, a familiar feeling overtook her.Before she and Eddy had broken things off, she had occasionally stayed here. She didn't expect that, after so long not coming here, the room would still be maintained in the same way. It was as if the person who stayed there had never left.

However, Caroline really didn't want to divorce Kirk. It had taken so much for them to get to this point. Plus, after meeting Marietta, Caroline was slowly trying to welcome the role of mother. Now, everything was progressing to a good place."Carrie, can you really not fulfill this last wish of mine?"Jude raised his weathered hand and grasped Caroline's hand. "Carrie, this is my only wish. If you don't fulfill it, I can't leave with my mind at ease. Only by handing Eddy to you can I feel at ease. Let me go in peace."Caroline looked speechlessly into Jude's eyes, feeling hurt and torn. Jude's pleading voice resounded in her ear. "Grandpa, don't … don't force me. Don't force me. Ah!"Caroline was screaming as she sprang up into a sitting position. She instinctively looked for Kirk's familiar, warm hug. However, she found no one there.As she sniffed, Caroline's rationality slowly came back to her. With that, she realized that she was still in Morrison Manor, not in her own

"Alright, then I'll leave now. Have a good rest." Eddy only turned to leave after a moment of hesitation.Once the door closed, Caroline couldn't take it anymore. She collapsed into bed. She really missed Kirk. She really wanted to be in his arms.Picking up her phone, Caroline checked the time on the screen. In the end, she didn't dial Kirk's number.Laying in bed, she closed her eyes. Once again, she recalled what Jude had said to her in her dream. That night was destined to be a sleepless one.When she woke up the next day, Caroline's head felt heavy and dizzy.However, there were a lot of things still waiting for her to settle. Thus, she had to force herself to get into the spirit."Did you have a bad night last night?" Eddy hesitantly brought a cup of coffee over.Caroline looked up. After some thought, she accepted the cup. "Why don't I take over?" Eddy felt his heart ache for Caroline at the sight of her this way.But Caroline said, "No need. Drinking this coffee wil

The nightmare caused Caroline to spring awake from the fight. Thereafter, she didn't dare to shut her eyes again. When she did, she saw Jude lying in a fresh pool of blood and crying out to her without end, "Caroline, I died because of you. How could you be so heartless?"When she woke up the next day, Caroline was even more out of it.Thus, she could only make herself a huge cup of coffee. As she drank it, Eddy came downstairs from the second floor.Seeing the dark circles under Caroline's eyes, Eddy asked worriedly, "Are you alright?"He had heard the noises coming from her room last night and had wanted to check on her. However, recalling what had happened the previous night and her attitude, Eddy had decided to give it a pass.It was obvious that Caroline didn't like him one bit right now.Finally realizing this, Eddy had been very upset. He had stayed in bed, unable to sleep, and could only listen to the noises from Caroline's room and toss and turn.Caroline shook her he

"But you could also say that we never met. The last few times, he was always wearing a mask. I never got to see what he looks like." Caroline asked Simon excitedly, "Since he's attending Grandpa's funeral today, he probably won't be wearing a mask anymore, right?"Both Eddy's and Simon's expressions changed again.Eddy was especially incapable of holding back. He asked, "You … you've never seen my second uncle's face?""That's right." Caroline didn't understand why Eddy and Simon looked astonished. "He's always so mysterious when he shows up. Does he wear a mask because his looks aren't very nice?"Eddy blinked, taken aback."Then … then why do you have his number on your phone?"If Caroline hadn't even seen Kirk's face, that meant that he didn't trust Caroline. If he didn't trust her, then why would she have his phone number?Eddy was so confused by all this that he was getting dizzy.However, Simon was getting a clearer picture of what was going on. As he looked at Eddy,

But wasn't it too much of a coincidence? Caroline really had to ask Kirk about it once she got home.They spent the journey without talking and soon arrived at the funeral parlor. Once she got out of the car, Caroline immediately saw Gwen.She walked over and greeted, "Gwen."Seeing how pale Caroline looked, Gwen felt really bad for her friend. "Did that awful Eddy give you a hard time so you couldn't sleep? Did he shove all the work on you?"Caroline laughed. "He didn't. The past few days, he's been quite different from how he used to be.""Oh? Different in what way?" As she spoke, Gwen's gaze settled on Eddy. She noticed that he was looking at Caroline and burst out laughing. "Now he regrets it. What was he even doing before?"Caroline didn't get it. "What's he regretting?""Of course he's regretting that he missed out on having such a beautiful, educated, and sweet wife." As she said all this, Gwen intentionally walked Caroline past Eddy, her hand on Caroline's waist.Caro

"Carol, what's up with you?" Gwen nudged Caroline's arm.Caroline came back to herself in a daze and looked down at Jude in his casket. His eyes were tightly shut, not open, which finally made her realize that she had been mistaken just now."Carol?" Gwen called again softly. "Are you alright? Why does your face look so pale?"Caroline shook her head. Her bad sleep the past couple of nights had probably caused her to see things. "Let's go."The next guest had come forward to place their flower. Caroline nodded and followed Gwen back to their seats.After the flower portion of the ceremony, Thomas came up to say a few words, bidding Jude farewell. Gwen used this opportunity to ask Caroline lowly, "Why can't I see Eddy's second uncle? Isn't he coming?"Looking around, Caroline said, "Mr. Zellen said that he had called to say he would attend.""But why don't I see him?"Those who were attending the funeral today were rich and powerful. Most of them were people Gwen knew. O
