A shadow fell across Jude’s face as he started mumbling to himself.
“Kirk’s been married for at least three months now. Why did he only buy her a house now? Tell me, Simon, does this woman even exist? Or did Kirk hire her to put on a show for me?”
Confused, Simon asked, “But why would he do that?”
Jude gripped his cane. It took him a moment to respond. “Because the woman he married is Caroline!”
Now that made Simon inhale sharply. “Mr. Morrison Senior, how is that possible? Ms. Evans and Mr. Kirk have never met each other.”
“I hope so. Perhaps I was overthinking it.” Jude let out a long breath.
“Mr. Morrison Senior, if you’re so worried about it, why don’t you simply call Ms. Evans to make sure?”
“No way!” Jude rejected his idea outright.
Kirk was highly alert about this matter the last time they met. If Jude were to ask Caroline directly about this, it would surely arouse Kirk’s suspicions.
Jude shut his eyes tightly.
The image of a young woman in a wedding gown emerged in his mind. She looked very much like Caroline, and she held a bouquet of flowers in her hands.
Beside her stood a dashing young man who looked very much like Kirk too.
The thought of them together made Jude’s eyes snap wide open, and he started panting heavily.
Simon rushed forward to pat his back as he tried to console him. “I’ll call the family doctor over.”
“Don’t.” Jude waved a hand in the air to dismiss him.
“This is retribution. It’s all retribution. Go and bring me the manager of the media department!”
Simon stared at him, wide–eyed and bewildered. It had been a long time since Jude had stepped down and let go of everything related to the company.
“What are you waiting for?”
“I’m on it!” Simon left in a hurry.
The sunflower garden was quite close to their hostel. It didn’t take much time for them to go there.
When they reached the garden, Caroline turned to see Sean a couple of feet behind her. He was with the hostel owner’s daughter.
Caroline wasn’t sure what they were talking about, but she could see that the young woman was smiling from ear to ear.
The young girl hadn’t been part of Caroline’s plan for this trip. She had appeared so suddenly, out of nowhere.
“Carol, let’s take a picture!” Gwen hollered as she darted into the rows of sunflowers with her phone in one hand.
Caroline hurried to catch up with her and just so happened to glance at Sean and the young woman.
“Carol, you need to focus.” Gwen tugged Caroline’s arm. It appeared as though she couldn’t care less about what was happening on Sean’s side.
“Okay,” said Caroline, stealing a glance at Gwen beside her.
Although Sean seemed to be busy chatting with the young woman, he couldn’t tear his eyes away from Gwen, even for a moment.
Something twitched Inside of him when he saw how she appeared to be unallected by what he was doing.
The young girl followed his gaze and giggled. “You like the lady in white, right?”

“Not really. Only those who walked by would notice,” she joked.
Despite that, Sean still looked fondly in Gwen’s direction. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
The young girl then raised her eyes to meet him. In a naive tone, she asked, “So, you’re deliberately getting close to me just to provoke her. then?”
This made Sean stare at her in shock and disbelief. He hadn’t expected her to be so vigilant. “I–I’m so sorry, Mia!”
Surprisingly, the young girl, Mia, wasn’t mad at him. She laughed at him instead. “Let me give you a hand, then!” she said cheerfully as she hooked an arm in his.
