Chapter 612

“Hmph!” Caroline sneered.

“Darling.” Kirk nuzzled Caroline’s head.

“Why don’t we move back to the villa?”

Caroline looked up at Kirk in confusion. “What? Do you think this place is too small and uncomfortable?”

“No, I’ll be comfortable as long as I’m with you.” Kirk took Caroline’s hand and kissed the back of it.

“I just feel bad for you. This place is too far from Evans Group. If you moved back to the villa, you can wake up half an hour later before you have to go to work.”

Caroline pondered his words carefully. He did have a point. “All right. When are we moving back there?

I’ll take the day off.”

“It’s okay.” Kirk hugged Caroline’s waist.

He said merrily, “As long as you agree, I’ll have someone come over and move everything tomorrow.”

“So soon?”

“Of course, seeing you leave home so early every day upsets me.”

Caroline immediately wrapped her arms around Kirk’s neck. “Oh, Kirk, what should I do? You seem so cool all of a sudden!”

Kirk swallowed at her boldness. “Darling …”

“Hm?”

Kirk lifted Caroline’s hair. “I want to-”

Caroline chuckled, “It’s still daytime.”

“That doesn’t matter.”

“Wait-”

Kirk carried Caroline into the bedroom. Soon, her sounds of struggling became moans of pleasure.

Meanwhile, in a villa in Osbury’s countryside, Howard learned about Daphne’s death on the news.

Although the reporter repeatedly emphasized that Daphne had slipped and fallen off the cliff, Howard had learned about Daphne’s plan from the butler.

Therefore, he knew that Jane had planned to push Caroline down from the mountain and make it look like she had slipped.

And now, Daphne’s death was precisely the same as what Jane had planned for Caroline.

Hence, Howard couldn’t help but think that Daphne’s death was also faked. Caroline was likely the one behind it. He shuddered at the thought of this.

At this moment, something rang, scaring him out of his wits. After he realized that his phone was ringing, he cautiously walked to the coffee table and picked it up.

The call was from an unknown number. Howard dared not answer it.

Collins Group’s stock had plummeted since Kirk had announced he would no longer work with.

them.

After that, people had come to get him to terminate their contracts. He had tried every means to avoid or delay them, not wanting to terminate the contract with Kirk.

Those people had then come over to cause trouble, soon even barging into Collins Group. It had left Howard with no choice but to hide in a villa in the countryside.

The news about Daphne’s death had been announced just two days after things quieted down. It affected him more than when he had heard that Jane had been arrested.

This proved that Caroline wasn’t to be underestimated. Perhaps she had colluded with Kirk a long time ago.

A chill ran down Howard’s back at the thought of this possibility. No! He couldn’t let Caroline get away with this!
