But the guilt Eddy felt completely vanished when he remembered that Kirk married Caroline and lied to him. Caroline was supposed to marry Eddy from the very beginning. His attitude toward Kirk turned cold when he was reminded of this. Kirk had only just snapped out of his daze and started walking toward the gates. Staring at Eddy through the gates, he enunciated each word as he said, "I dare you to repeat what you just said." Despite the iron gates that separated them, Eddy's still heart skipped a beat when Kirk spoke. "I-I said … Caroline and I—"Eddy paled at the sound as Kirkpunched the gate with such force that the iron bars became dented. He didn't have the guts to speak clearly now. All he did was mumble incoherently. "Why don't you repeat what you said?" Kirk roared at him like an angered beast, his eyes locked on Eddy. Needless to say, Eddy lost the courage to continue speaking. Looking at the dent in the gates, he feared that his fate would somehow become j
The phone's ring scared Eddy half to death. He took a furtive glance at the screen to see that the caller was none other than Avery.He quickly answered the call and vented all his anger on her by lashing out at her. "Didn't you say that Caroline will definitely marry me after she lost her memories? Why did she resist the idea of marrying me so much when I brought it up to her?" Stunned by Eddy's outburst, Avery took a moment to respond. She laughed and said, "You're much too impatient. I told you that I have a plan, didn't I?"I'm calling you this time to tell you that everything's prepared." She continued, "Just take Caroline out tomorrow.""Are you sure it'll work?" Avery’s words extinguished Eddy's flames of rage by a considerable degree, but he still couldn't stop himself from worrying. "Worry not. My plan will surely work." She sounded very certain of herself. "No woman can resist it." Despite that, Eddy didn't believe her. "Caroline still misses Uncle Kirk e
Caroline shrank in the seat as her eyes fell on the rows of cars behind them. The scenery outside looked so familiar yet strange to her somehow. The buildings looked familiar as if she had seen them all before, but she found it strange because they weren't similar to the ones in her memories. They towered over her and seemed even cleaner than what she could recall. About an hour later, they finally arrived at Belrene Square. Caroline and Eddy had just gotten out of the car when they heard someone yelling. "Help! Help! There's a robber!" The next second, someone dashed passed Caroline. Before she could react, Eddy had stepped forward and grabbed the robber by the collar. The robber turned and paled when he saw that it was Eddy who had stopped him. He wanted to flee, but Eddy threw him to the ground with such a force that he fell on all fours. The handbag flew out of the robber’s hands. He lay on the ground, looking all haggard and embarrassed. Caroline picked up the hand
Caroline stared back at Eddy, her pretty eyes sparkling just like the stars at night. Frowning, Eddy made up his mind and was determined to selfishly keep this beautiful light of hers all to himself."Yes, I did," he said. "Do you like it?""Did you come up with this idea? You're so creative! I …" Caroline lowered her eyes, embarrassed. "I like it very much.""Great!" exclaimed Eddy. The uneasiness he had felt earlier vanished completely at the sight of her blushing face. "Look—" Eddy grabbed her arm. Following his gaze, she looked up to see balloons in the air. There were words on them. She read aloud the words on the balloons, "Caroline … will … you … marry … me?"Just then, Eddy got down on one knee, took out a huge diamond ring, and presented it to her. "Caroline, I know that I've made lots of stupid mistakes in the past. I've let you down," he said. "But I know that I was wrong now. So can you give me another chance and let me make up for them?" He glanced u
"Come here." Eddy didn't care if Caroline agreed to it or not anymore. He simply took out his phone and took a shot of her wearing the ring and uploaded it on social media. Even after uploading the photo, he still thought it wasn't enough. He contacted some reporters in the entertainment industry so that the photo made the headlines. In just a few hours, the news of them getting married became a hot topic. It came as quite a shock to the many gossipers in the entertainment section. "What's going on? Doesn't Eddy like Layla? Why is he marrying Caroline?""I'm flabbergasted. Everyone says that the entertainment industry is a hellhole. Why does it seem like the filthy rich are even more chaotic?" "Isn't Caroline married already?""Breaking news: Layla's in a coma now.""What? What just happened? Wasn't she just fine a few days ago? How did she become like this?""I'm not sure, but I heard that she got into an accident. Nobody knows for sure what happened to her." "Fuck. Th
It was at this moment that Gwen's phone started ringing. She froze when she saw that it was Sean who was calling her. She couldn't believe her eyes. How did he know that she had been about to call him? In her daze, she missed the call. A wave of panic washed over her. She hesitated, wondering if she should call him back. Just then, her phone rang once again.Sean was calling her again. Her heart swarmed with relief. This time, she no longer hesitated. She quickly answered the call. However, she regretted her decision the moment the call went through. "Gwen." It was obvious from his tone that Sean hadn’t expected her to answer the phone.He was still in a daze as he realized that his call hadn’t gone unanswered. "Yes?" said Gwen. "Did you want to say something?""You …" Sean inhaled sharply. "I-I want to apologize to you. I didn't mean to snap at you when we were at the clinic that day." Gwen straightened her back, stunned at his words. "Kirk lied to Caroline. He's
"It's true! I swear I'm telling you the truth!" Gwen burst out laughing. "You'd better be! God will surely find lots of ways to punish you if you hide something from me." "I have nothing to hide," said Sean. He wished he could just pluck his heart out and give it to Gwen. "I swear to God!" "Fine then. I believe you since you've never lied to me." Sean could finally relax now. "Then we'll—""Let's not talk about us," Gwen stopped him. "We should be talking about Carol and Krik now."She sat on a chair and asked, "Can't we do anything at all? Should we really just watch Carol marry Eddy?" "Michael said that Caroline should regain her memories on her own," Sean replied. "All we can do is wait.""I really hope she can get back her memories," said Gwen. All of a sudden, something popped up in her mind. "Oh right! Will she be able to get over Mr. Morrison Senior's death if she regains her memories?" Sean couldn't answer that. "I still don't think it's right to make
Just then, someone knocked on the door. "Excuse me, is someone in there?"Caroline glanced at the door and caught a glimpse of the pair of shoes under the door. "Yeah." "You're Ms. Evans, right? Your fiancé said that you've been in here for quite some time already. He asked me to check if you're okay," the woman said. "Are you okay? Do you need help?"Caroline didn't respond. Gwen heard the woman’s voice on the phone and smiled helplessly. "You should head back." "I know," said Caroline. "Just remember what I told you. Don't think about anything else, okay?""Okay," Caroline replied, her tone meek. After hanging up, she opened the door to see a kind-looking old lady standing by the door. "Hello." The lady greeted Caroline with a smile. Caroline greeted the lady out of common courtesy. She hasn’t expected this to be the start of a very long conversation with the lady, who couldn't stop complimenting Eddy as she grabbed Caroline's arm and led her out of the washroom.
