Chapter 805
Bogus Billionaire
Seeing this, the bodyguard raised his leg, trying to kick the gun out of Adrianâs hand.
Adrian seemed to know what they wanted to do. With a turn of his wrist, he passed the tranquilizer gun from his right hand to his left.
When Simon saw what had happened, he immediately ordered, âGet them!â
At his order, bodyguards swarmed toward them. However, a few bodyguards behind fell down to the ground, immediately attracting Simonâs attention.
All of a sudden, Simon saw several people with guns showing up out of nowhere. They were glancing in their direction.
âThis is bad. They have outside help.â Simon took out his walkie-talkie.
âWeâre at the entrance of the brideâs dressing room. Everyone, get over here to assist us right away.â
Caroline wasnât afraid to see them wield guns. Instead, she struggled even harder against the bodyguardsâ
grip.
Then, she actually broke free from their grasp. She didnât know whether it was because the sudden change in events had caught those bodyguards off guard or because she had become stronger.
After breaking free from them, Caroline didnât even dare to catch her breath.
She was about to run away, but Adrian grabbed her wrist.
âLetâs go!â
At this moment, Caroline dared not delay and followed Adrian. She dodged the hail of bullets and headed toward the door.
After they went down the stairs, they were about to reach the door, but the large door slammed shut.
The lights turned off, plunging everything into darkness.
Caroline instantly felt suffocation welling up in her chest. She gripped the railing in fear.
With the flick of a switch, a light appeared in the darkness.
Under the faint lights, Caroline saw Eddy standing at the door. Behind him was a large crowd of people.
Caroline shivered at the sight.
âSo you still want to leave, Caroline.â Eddy looked straight at Caroline.
âI just didnât expect that the person who would take you away would be him and not my second uncle.â
Caroline frowned at his words, feeling the pain in her head return. It was like countless needles were jabbing her brain.
âEddy, Iâm sorry. I canât marry you.â
Caroline looked down at the ground and said miserably, âI donât know why, but thereâs a voice in my head that keeps telling me that I canât marry you.â
Eddyâs expression became gloomy. âThe voice in your head? Hah! But just a year ago, you wouldnât marry anyone but me!â
âYouâre right. I did want to marry you before, but-â
âWhy?â Eddy loudly interrupted her.
âHow the hell am I inferior to him? Both of us have money and power! Heâs handsome, but Iâm not bad-
looking either! Why, Caroline? Just tell me why!â
Eddy walked toward Caroline step by step.
Even though it was a carpeted floor, Caroline still heard his shoes stepping on the ground, and her body trembled.
As Eddy got closer and closer, she shook even more.
Noticing this, Adrian stepped in front of Caroline, stopping Eddy, who was getting closer. âIâll answer that question instead.â
Eddyâs vicious gaze landed on Adrian. âGet the hell out of the way. You donât have the right to talk to me.â
Adrian wasnât bothered by his intimidation in the slightest.
âDonât you want to know the answer to your question? Itâs very simple. Kirk loves Caroline wholeheartedly. He would even work with his rival in love for her sake. But what about you?â
Carolineâs head hurt even more at the mention of Kirkâs name.
She held her head and added pressure with all her strength, but the pain still spread throughout her body.
However, neither of the men noticed the change in her behavior.
âHow did you treat Caroline when she wanted to be yours? You only came to the realization after she stopped loving you.
âHa! Let me tell you something. Itâs too late for you to acknowledge your love for her.â
