Chapter 523
Bogus Billionaire
At this moment, Carolineâs doubts about Kirk completely disappeared. It seemed that Daphne was behind this entire ordeal.
âI donât have any more questions.â
She stood up. She looked at Kirk before quickly shifting her gaze away. âWhat about you guys?â
Kirk smiled slightly at her actions. âI donât.â
âThen, letâs go home.â Caroline kicked the gravel under her feet.
Kirk grabbed Carolineâs hand. âOkay.â
This time, Caroline didnât struggle.
When Charles saw them walk out of the warehouse hand in hand, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that they had successfully resolved this crisis.
Charles looked back at Dolly. Then, as if he thought of something, he hurriedly ran out. âSir, I have something to tell you.â
Kirk looked at Caroline.
Caroline said, âGo ahead. Iâll wait for you in the car.â
After getting Carolineâs permission, Kirk walked toward Charles.
Charles waited for Caroline to get in the car before saying, âSir, what should we do about Ms.
Daphne?â
âLet her go back for now. Keep an eye on her, and donât let Uncle Jude get suspicious.â
Kirk stared at the ground. He continued, âAlso, have you discovered anything about the car accident when I came to Easton?â
Charles shook his head. âSir, it seems that the enemy isnât to be trifled with. I think the big four families are the likely suspects.â
âIncluding the Morrisons?â
Charles froze momentarily, then considered it and said, âItâs hard to tell for now. After all, Mr.
The public only knew that Jude and Ivan had fallen out, but they didnât know why. As Kirkâs subordinate, Charles didnât dare to inquire about his bossâ father.
Kirk frowned. It wasnât that he didnât have suspicions about his family, but he didnât have any proof. He didnât like wasting time on things for which there was no evidence.
Of course, he hoped that the Morrisons werenât behind it. But if they were, he would still make them pay the price.
*Just keep investigating this,â Kirk ordered âYes, sir.â
âAlsoâ¦â Kirk warned again. âBe sure to keep an eye on Daphne. If she causes any more trouble, Charles-
âYes, sir!â Charles hurriedly replied.
âIt wonât happen a second time.â
After getting Charlesâ assurance, Kirk turned around and got in the car.
Charles waited for the car to leave before calling someone over to watch Dolly while he sent Daphne back.
It was possible that Judeâs people were still watching Daphne at this moment. Things would be bad if they found out the truth behind everything.
Charles took Daphne back to the villa and finally removed the cloth from her mouth.
When Daphne was freed, she shrieked, âCarolineâs husband is Mr. Kirk?â
Charles glared at Daphne. He warned, âMs. Daphne, keep this in mind if you want to live: donât ask or say anything you shouldnât.â
Then, he walked toward the door.
Daphne grabbed Charlesâ thigh. âTell me! Tell me this isnât true!â
How could Caroline be the wife of Eddyâs second uncle? Daphne couldnât believe it. She should be Kirkâs wife!
