Chapter 604
Bogus Billionaire
Hearing Kirk say this, Jude frowned again.
âKirk, arenât you asking the obvious? Eddy is a slow one. It took him nearly ten years to figure out that he might like Caroline. If you stick your nose in, he might retreat!â
More importantly, there was no way Eddy could beat Kirk!
Kirk smiled and said, âI would back down in any other matter, but not this.â
These words were too familiar. So familiar that it made Jude ache. âDo you have to compete with Eddy on this?â
Jude was so mad that he was shaking.
âThatâs right,â Kirk said brazenly as he looked into Judeâs eyes.
Furious, Jude yelled, âMr. Zellen!â
Simon, who had been waiting at the door, came in and said, âYes, sir!â
âWeâre going home!â
âYes, sir.â Hearing this, Simon knew that their talk had failed. He quickly went up and helped Jude out.
Once Jude left, Kirk slowly took a seat. His gaze was cold.
Sean came in from the room next door. He patted Kirk on the shoulder and said, âNow Mr.
Morrison Senior shouldnât believe that youâre Carolineâs husband.â
Kirk seemed quite tired. âIt will only hide the truth for a while. He will grow suspicious sooner or later and keep investigating.â
Sean sighed in response. âYou should have just told Caroline the truth about who you are. There was no need for things to get to this point.â
Kirk looked at Sean like he was looking at a fool.
Sean awkwardly scratched his head. âBy the way, how do you plan on dealing with Daphne?â
Kirk looked toward the door. âOf course, she should be given a taste of her own medicine.â
âI understand.â
He meant that Daphne would end up as she had tried to do to Caroline, when she had tried to shove Caroline off a mountain.
She would âfallâ down and only be found days later.
âWhen are you going back?â With nothing amusing to watch anymore, Sean got up to leave.
Kirk lit a cigar and said, âHold on.â
There was another problem that had yet to be solved.
âIâm leaving now.â
âNot so fast. Have you and Gwen gotten back together?â
Sean chuckled. âNot really. Weâre just friends with benefits. Who knows when it will end? But itâs quite alright like this. At least this way, I have time to slowly undo the knot in Gwenâs heart.â
Kirk let out a laugh. âGet lost then.â
Sean was chuckling as he left.
Kirk watched him go, his forehead slightly wrinkled. It seemed that he was the only one who had to suffer the bitterness of love.
âCharles.â
âIâm here, sir. Do you have any orders?â
The smoke from Kirkâs cigar drifted around Charles. âHave you contacted Marietta Weiss?â
Charles started to sweat. âUm⦠Sir, I havenât managed to contact her. She seems to have changed her number.â
Kirkâs eyes narrowed. âThen what about her address?â
âI also have not found it yet ⦠But donât worry, sir. Iâve already thought up an idea. Later, Iâll go see the madam. She will surely know where Ms. Weiss lives!â
Kirk scoffed and bent down, his chin tilting up. âI think youâre in a rush to have the madam find out!â
Charlesâ face became ashen in a second.
