Chapter 819
Adrian was indeed at Yates Manor now.
However, his purpose for this visit wasn’t to see the Yates family but for Caroline.
So, upon seeing Sean, he straightforwardly asked, “Where’s Caroline?”
Sean pointed to the couch, saying, “Just had someone call to ask the same thing. She went to the seal
and probably won’t be back until this afternoon.”
“Then I’ll wait for her to come back.”
Adrian sat down on the couch.
Sean had someone bring a glass of water for Adrian. “Actually, you could come back later.”
Adrian smiled. “I’m afraid if I come later, you’ll tell me to come back at night.”
Sean asked, “Do you think I’m lying to you?”
“I didn’t say that.” Adrian took a sip of water.
“It’s just that you’re a good friend of Kirk Morrison. So it’s hard to believe you.”
Sean wasn’t offended. “As you wish. I have other things to attend to. If you don’t mind, I’ll leave you to
wait here.”
“Okay.”
Seeing this, Sean didn’t say anything else. He went upstairs to work.
By the time he had finished his work, it was lunchtime. He went downstairs and was surprised to see
Adrian still there. He admired the latter’s perseverance.
“You came anyway even though you know Caroline doesn’t like you. Is this a form of … self-torture?” Sean asked Adrian, who was playing with his phone, as he descended the stairs.
Adrian looked at Sean and smiled. “Are you so sure that the amnesiac Caroline won’t fall in love with me?”
Sean said, “Eddy Morrison is a good example.”
Adrian continued to smile../
“I’m different from him. Eddy once caused Caroline a great deal of pain, but I didn’t,” Adrian said with.
confidence.

“This is an opportunity for me. Look, Caroline isn’t afraid of me. That’s my advantage.”
Sean was speechless.
After lunch, Adrían waited until the evening, which was when Caroline finally returned.
Caroline was quite startled to see Adrian as soon as she arrived.
“Adrian, why are you here?”
Feeling triumphant, Adrian glanced at Sean before responding to Caroline.
“Since you came abroad so hastily, I thought you probably wouldn’t have had time to bring any local
specialties, so I brought some for you when I came over.”
Caroline was touched. “Thank you. That’s thoughtful of you.”.
On the side, Betty discreetly looked at Sean, her eyes filled with excitement.
Sean was speechless.
“You’re welcome. We’re both visitors in a foreign country, and it’s only right for us to look out for each
other.”
Betty couldn’t help but say, “You sure know the right things to say. Have you had dinner? I’m sure your
house is far away. Why not stay for dinner?”
At the mention of dinner, Caroline suddenly remembered that she had promised to treat Adrian to dinner
to thank him.
“Yeah, stay for dinner. It’s too late today, and I’m not familiar with this place. I can’t treat you to dinner
now. So just stay for dinner.
“Consider it my way of repaying the favor. After some time, when I’m familiar with the places here, I’ll
treat you to another meal.”
Betty chimed in, “Why wait? Since Caroline wants to treat…”
Adrian said, “Adrian Sorkin.”
Betrayed by her fiancé, Caroline Evans decides on a whim to marry someone else. Everyone mocks her for the decision of giving up on the heir to the Morrison family and choosing some poor punk instead. However, that poor punk is actually secretly the top wealthiest person around, newly back in the country to invest in its development. He’s also her ex’s uncle! Lamenting about being tricked, Caroline Evans insists on a divorce. But her husband corners her and says unblinkingly, “That billionaire is not me. That guy had cosmetic surgery to look like me.” Looking at his handsome face, Caroline believes it. “What a curse to have the same face as someone of the Morrison family!” The next day, the world is surprised to find that the heir of the Morrison family has been kicked out and now has nothing. As for the newly crowned top billionaire, he starts wearing a mask to hide his attractive features.
