Seeing his dejected expression, Caroline continued, “Perhaps you don’t want to admit the truth.
Maybe you don’t want to face the fact that you lost to someone whose status and wealth aren’t as
good as yours.”
Eddy’s expression turned even darker at her words.
“Enough, Caroline! I was nice enough to visit you. I’m not here to listen to your lectures.”
“Then, you’ve already visited me. Can you please leave?”
Usually, Eddy would turn around and leave at this point. However, this time, his legs seemed to be
rooted to the ground. He didn’t move a single inch.
After taking several deep breaths, he said, “Although I failed you as a fiancé, you don’t have to be
so hostile every time we meet. Perhaps we can still be friends.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCaroline had already closed her eyes.
Seeing this, Eddy frowned. “Or are you planning to skip being friends and be spouses again?”
Caroline remained silent.
“I–I mean, it’s not impossible.”
Eddy frowned and explained, “But I have to settle things with Layla first.”
Caroline opened her eyes and questioned, “Eddy, are you deaf or something?”
“What do you mean by that?” Eddy asked angrily.
“If your ears are working, let me tell you this–my husband and I have a very good relationship. We
won’t get divorced, so please don’t say anything that makes me seem unloyal to him.
“I already told you, I’ve never thought about getting back together with you after I got married.”
Eddy frowned. After a long while, he relaxed.
“Caroline, it’s not shameful to admit that your ploy to marry someone else has failed.
“You know better than anyone else that your husband is a useless piece of garbage. You wouldn’t
be in the hospital right now if he wasn’t.”

Pointing at the door, she said, ‘Please get out of-*
However, Eddy sat down on the chair next to the bed. He frowned and looked at Caroline sternly.
“Caroline, this is your life we’re talking about. You can’t be reckless because of
www
other people.
Your husband isn’t a good fit for you.”
Caroline retorted, “And you think you are?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEddy blinked unnaturally at her words. “Well … I’m not sure about that. But I know for a fact that your husband
doesn’t deserve you.
“He doesn’t even have what it takes to protect you. You’d better leave him.”
At this time, neither of them knew that someone was standing outside the door, and that someone was none other
than Kirk.
When he heard Eddy asking Caroline to leave him, his eyes turned terrifyingly dark. He resisted the urge to push
open the door. He wanted to hear Caroline’s answer.
“Are you kidding me, Eddy? If he doesn’t have what it takes to protect me, you’re even worse than him.
“You had what it took to protect me, but look at what you did. You kept hurting me. And you even tried to take away
my kidney to save your lover, who wasn’t ill at all. Was that your way of protecting me?”
Eddy said, “I told you. I didn’t know that-‘
“Stop.” Caroline cut him off.
Then, she said arrogantly, “I have something to say about your little comments. First of all, I’m an adult capable of
protecting myself. Only a child asks for protection in everything they do.
“Also, it’s not like my husband didn’t protect me. In fact, he kept me safe. If he hadn’t shown up at the last moment,
you wouldn’t even be talking to me right now.”
