Chapter 647

Caroline stared at Eddy’s face. “The injury on your face…”

”

Why did it look exactly the same as the one on Kirk’s face? It wasn’t the size of the injury that was the same, but rather the shape. Could it be because they had both been punched?

Come to think of it, it was simply too much of a coincidence that both Kirk and Eddy had been beaten up at the same time.

“W–What is it?”

Eddy really couldn’t handle having Caroline come so close to him all of a sudden.

In the past, he had always viewed her through tinted lenses, which was why he had always looked down on her.

Even though she had charmed him a few times after that, he had never been impacted as hard as he was now.

Caroline had such pretty eyes. They were so clear, like a well of water. Her features weren’t the brutal kind of stunning. They were soft and held the power to comfort someone.

The more he looked at her, Eddy actually felt that her beauty was out of this world. It was impossible for him to shift his gaze.

Caroline took a large step backward and looked at Eddy suspiciously. “What’s up with you? Why is your face getting red?”

Eddy’s expression was unnatural as he turned his face. “I… My face isn’t getting red. I’m just feeling a little warm.”

Caroline stared at Eddy, dumbfounded. It was getting deep into fall, so how could it be warm?

“Mr. Eddy.” Simon came over with some menus. “These are the menus prepared by the kitchen.

Please have a look.”

There were a total of three menus. One was specially for members of the Morrison family, while another was for the guests. Lastly, there was a menu for the workers and household staff.

Eddy handed the menus to Caroline.

“Here, Caroline. I’m really not too knowledgeable about this.”

Caroline accepted the menus and started perusing them carefully.

Seeing this, Eddy walked over to Simon and ordered lowly, “Go and prepare some fruits for Caroline.”

Simon suddenly felt like crying when he saw Eddy being so proactive. Eddy was finally taking the initiative!

“Alright, I’ll go, right—”

“Shh!” Eddy glanced at Caroline, who was going through the menus in a serious manner. He gave a small wave. “Hurry up.”

Simon nodded, his eyes welling with tears, and turned to leave.

“I think these menus are pretty good.” Caroline looked up to find Eddy standing by the door. Finding it strange, she asked, “Are you going out?”

“No.”

Eddy walked to Caroline’s side. He instinctively wanted to sit down next to her, but he gave it some thought and sat opposite her instead.

“Is it alright? You can just bring up whatever you think is right. Just consider yourself as …”

Well, it wasn’t like it was appropriate to call her the lady of the house. Thus, Eddy couldn’t find the right words to say for a moment.

Caroline looked at him in suspicion. “What on earth is wrong with you?” He was being so weird.

“N–Nothing.”

Caroline once again focused on the menus. “I think the dishes are fine. I’ve also checked, and the three chefs are really quite professional.

“These things should be left to the experts, so there’s nothing I have to question about them.”

Eddy looked at Caroline in a dévoted manner. “Suddenly, I think I know why you could beat Layla even when she had so many advantages.”

Caroline frowned. She really didn’t want to hear Layla’s name. Just as she was about to speak up and talk about something else, Simon came in with a platter of fruits.

“Ms. Evans, have some fruits.”

“Alright. Thank you, Mr. Zellen.”

Simon quickly left after bringing the fruits.

Caroline didn’t start eating. Rather, she asked Eddy, “You can confirm the menus. What else is next?”

“The list of return gifts and seat arrangements for the guests “You haven’t even done the seat arrangements?”
