Chapter 375
Bogus Billionaire
Caroline took out her phone and tapped on her private chat with Marina. Now, she could only know what to believe after getting some precise information.
However, Marina hadnât sent her another message since the last time.
Caroline remembered Marina saying that she could easily investigate the truth. After some consideration, she sent Marina a message, asking her how her investigation went.
At this moment, she heard Kirkâs voice again. âDarling?â
Carolineâs heart jumped, and she almost dropped her phone. Taking a deep breath, she forced herself to calm down.
There was no point in having negative emotions like panic, anger, and disappointment when dealing with this issue. She had to calm down. Only by remaining calm could the damage be minimal.
However, it was easier said than done. After taking several deep breaths, Caroline said, âI got it. Iâll be down in a moment.â
After hearing a response from her, Kirkâs tense body finally relaxed slightly.
âAll right. Iâll head downstairs first.â Then, he hesitated for a moment before finally walking downstairs.
Neither of them had slept at all last night.
Carolineâs reaction had left him uncertain of what was on her mind. But he didnât dare go after her rashly again. That wasnât his style.
In the past, whenever he encountered a problem, he would always investigate the issue thoroughly before taking action.
But this time, he had gotten his emotions involved. He had cluelessly grasped at straws, thinking it was a lifeline.
As a result, things had spiraled so badly that they were now out of control.
Although the rational part of him told him repeatedly that he must investigate the matter before talking to Caroline, Kirk still couldnât control himself.
He ran to Carolineâs door several times, wanting to bust down the door.

Fortunately, daylight finally arrived, allowing him to use breakfast as an excuse to talk to her.
Otherwise, he was sure that he would go insane.
Meanwhile, Caroline, who was upstairs, was also on the verge of a breakdown. She looked at her sleepâdeprived self in the mirror and closed her eyes.
Right now, the rational thing to do was pretend that the mysterious woman didnât send her the messages about Kirk, rebuild her relationship with Kirk, and slowly look for evidence.
If she found any proof that Kirk was having multiple marriages, she would leave him immediately.
It was a good idea, but when she thought about the possibility of Kirkâs polygamy, she couldnât bring herself to be in the same room as him.
She turned on her phone anxiously. Marina still hadnât replied to her.
Taking a deep breath, Caroline brushed her teeth while waiting for a message. However, there was still no response, even half an hour later.
Caroline suppressed her irritation, thinking it might be because of the time difference. She put her phone in her pocket, put on her coat, and went downstairs.
As she turned the corner, she took another deep breath and tried to keep her expression calm. But it was too difficult. Her heart ached whenever she thought of Kirk.
She pinched her arms before forcing herself to go downstairs with a calm expression.
When she arrived, Kirk was already sitting at the dining table. When he saw Caroline, he immediately stood up with a smile.
âDarling, I bought you your favorite meat pie and baguettes.â
Noticing the dark circles underneath Kirkâs eyes, Caroline sniffled, feeling the urge to cry.
âThank you,â she said gloomily, biting a baguette.
Kirk was surprised. He looked at Caroline, and his lips curled into a small smile.
This was the first time Caroline responded to him on her own initiative after returning from Macovo. Excitement overwhelmed Kirkâs mind.
The fork trembled slightly in his hand, and he asked cautiously, âDarling, youâre not mad at me anymore?â
