Chapter 515
Bogus Billionaire
His eyes were hauntingly dark. The pressure of his gaze made it impossible for her to breathe.
Daphre only knew one person who was this intimidating. It was none other than Kirk, her fake husband.
Thinking of her fake husband, Daphne instantly felt emboldened, and she wasnât afraid of the man before her anymore.
âWho do you think you are? How dare you stop me?â
Kirk shook off Daphneâs hand with a sullen look. It was as if he could tear Daphne apart with his glare.
Daphne looked Kirk up and down, completely unaware of his hostility. âOh⦠If Iâm not mistaken, you must be Carolineâs husband.â
The situation would still have been manageable if Daphne hadnât said anything. When she did, Kirk and Caroline both looked at her with chilling glares.
However, Daphne didnât notice anything and continued to mock, âI know you! Youâre Carolineâs unsightly husband. Youâve been married for so long, but you must be very ugly if you donât dare to show your face in public!â
Her words made Caroline speechless. Anyone could call Kirk whatever they wanted, but she absolutely couldnât condone anyone calling him ugly. If Kirk was ugly, everyone else was a monster.
âDonât change the subject, Daphne!â
Caroline walked up to Daphne, dragging Sonia with her. âWhy did you hit Sonia?â
âShe deserves to get hit! She didnât have the right to take my role away!â
Her excuses amused Caroline. /âMs. Marietta wrote âDaughter of the Seaâ, and Collins Group and Morrison Corp invested in the play. What makes you think the role is yours?â
âThe fact that Iâm the wife of Eddyâs second uncle!â Daphne spoke confidently, putting her hands on her hips.
Caroline really wanted to expose the truth that Daphne wasnât the wife of Eddyâs second uncle.
*15 BONUS But when she thought about how much trouble Eddyâs second uncle had gone through to keep it secret, she gave up on the idea. After all, he had helped her before. She couldnât bite the hand that fed her âYouâre his wife, you say?â Someone spoke, their voice filled with contempt.
Everyoneâs eyes landed on Kirk.
Daphneâs face flushed in anger when she realized that Carolineâs husband had talked back at her.
Am I not?â
âIâm sure you know the answer to that question.â Kirk looked at Daphne sullenly.
Daphneâs heart skipped a beat at that.
Then, she remembered that Carolineâs husband was just an ordinary person. He didnât have the power or the chance to be on the same level as Eddyâs second uncle, so she became confident and bold Daphne yelled, âOf course I do! You, on the other hand, have been aggressive and pushy. Anyone else would think youâre my husband instead.â
She sneered, âI want to see who you actually are! How dare you talk to me like that?â As she spoke, she lunged forward and pulled Kirkâs mask from his face.
Kirk wanted to stop her, but it was already too late. His true face was exposed to everyone present.
When Daphne saw Kirkâs face, her expression shifted. She stammered, âMâMr. â¦â
Kirk grabbed her neck and growled, âThatâs right. Iâm Kirk, Carolineâs husband.â
Fear appeared on Daphneâs flushed face. Her mouth was open, but she couldnât utter a single word.
âYou must be the mysterious person.â Kirk glared at Daphne.
âYouâve really gone to great lengths to destroy our relationship.â
