Chapter 650

“Mr. Zellen, do you know something about this?”

Simon quickly avoided Eddy’s gaze. “I … don’t know.”

“You must know something!” Eddy clamped his hand on Simon’s. “Hurry up and tell me!”

Simon was helpless. “Mr. Eddy, I… really don’t know anything. Maybe he just has the same name?”

“The same name?”

“That’s right.”

Realizing that Eddy was loosening his grip, Simon contínued, “Mr. Eddy’s, I think you should focus on handling Mr. Morrison Senior’s funeral.

“There’s nothing more important than making sure he has a smooth send–off.”

With that, Eddy was completely convinced.

“Once Grandpa’s funeral has been settled, I’ll go and ask her about it.”

Simon wanted to speak but couldn’t manage to. After some thought, he reminded Eddy, “Mr. Eddy, there are some things that are… better not known.”

“Why?” Eddy shot Simon a strange look. “Even if Caroline knows Uncle Kirk, that’s… nothing much.”

Although he said this, his heart was beating like a drum. He had the feeling that something had been stolen from him without him even knowing.

What was Kirk’s relationship with Caroline? He didn’t even know that for sure now. He was only afraid that Kirk …

Eddy wasn’t at all afraid of Caroline’s husband, but he was scared that Kirk would fall in love with Caroline.

As Eddy’s thoughts raced, Simon had already come up with something to say.

“After all, this is Ms. Evans‘ personal matter. If you ask too much about it, she might not be happy.”

Thinking about it, Eddy found Simon’s words to make sense. Besides, he really didn’t have the “Where is she, by the way?”

Simon was stunned for a moment before he came back to himself. “Ms. Evans is in the study handling the guests‘ seating arrangements.”

“Then I’ll head over there.” As Eddy spoke, he went over to the study with the help of his crutches.

In the study, Caroline had already finished with the seating arrangements. Seeing Eddy come in, Caroline passed the list to him. “Look at this. Is this arrangement alright?”

Eddy accepted the list, but his gaze wasn’t on it. He was surreptitiously looking at Caroline.

However, she didn’t notice this. She kept talking. “If it’s not good, I’ll take another look to see how I can adjust it.”

Only then did Eddy focus on the list. He took a look and found that there wasn’t much of an issue with it. But….

“Why did you put Asher and Yvonne Hackett so far away? And why did you put Aurora Jenner next to Asher?”

Caroline was taken aback. “Don’t you know that Aurora and Asher are dating? Besides, Yvonne and Aurora have always had a bad relationship.

“I remember at one of Aurora’s birthdays, Yvonne even intentionally came over to her party to taunt her.”

As for why they were on such bad terms, it was a topic everyone gossiped about.

Some people said that it was natural for Asher’s sister to dislike his girlfriend. Others said that they had once liked the same person, which was why they had it out for each other.

Regardless of what others said about the situation, it remained true that they had a poor relationship.

Eddy’s expression was one of shock. “I really didn’t know that. Then, were the others not put together because of the same reason?”

“Of course,” Caroline replied. “You can’t think that doing the seating arrangement is something easy, right?”

Eddy’s lips parted. He really used to think that.

Caroline grinned. “It’s not that simple. Beyond considering who the people are, you have to look at their relationships with others.

“If you arrange it haphazardly and allow two people who don’t like each other to sit together, then it will be a disaster.”

Eddy looked at Caroline, his Adam’s apple bobbing. “Grandpa was right.”

Caroline was confused by this statement. “What?”

“Marrying you would be a great help to me. You’d be able to help me deal with everything at home very well.”

As he spoke, Eddy couldn’t help but move closer. “Caroline, could you give me another chance?”

Caroline suddenly sprang up, seeming as though she had been scalded. Enraged, she said, “Eddy Morrison, please be more respectful. I’m married.”

After saying that, Caroline left in a huff.
