Chapter 841
When Kirk carried Caroline out, he saw the group of Shadowers staring at him in disbelief, as if they had seen something amazing.
He frowned and said, “Hurry up and drive! What are you waiting for?”
Anthony, the head of the Shadowers, was the first to take action. He quickly picked up the walkie-talkie
and called for a car.
A black Santana soon arrived.
Kirk carried Caroline and quickly got into the car. He provided the driver with the address for Michael’s student’s clinic. “We need to go there right away.”
The driver hesitated for a second before starting the car and driving.
On the way, he stared at Kirk from time to time. He was in disbelief when he saw how nervous Kirk was. He silently wondered if this was still the same Kirk he knew.
The car finally arrived at the psychology clinic.
Kirk carried Caroline into a room, where he ran into Michael.
Upon seeing Michael, Kirk’s face brightened up. He asked, “When did you return?”
“Just this morning,” Michael said.
When he saw how pale Caroline looked in Kirk’s arms, he frowned. “What’s going on?”
Kirk explained, “She was assaulted and got a fright.”
Michael asked, “Is she hurt? If so, we need to get her to the hospital right away.”
“No, I’ve already checked,” Kirk said urgently.
“You’ve come back just in time. Please take a look at her …” His biggest concern was that Caroline had. been traumatized, and he was worried whether it would have any lasting effects.
“I understand. Please wait here for a moment.”
Michael turned and called a few nurses, “Prepare a bed and take her to the examination room.”
The nurses immediately fetched a bed.
They were back in no time. “Kirk, please lay her down on the bed.”

Kirk was just as enigmatic in Macldo as he was in Easton. These nurses had never seen Kirk’s face. Since he was wearing a mask, they naturally had no way of knowing that the person before them was the
renowned president of SY.
Kirk did as he was told and placed Caroline on the bed. That was when he noticed that Caroline’s hand was tightly gripping his shirt.
Her face was pale. Although her eyes were closed, her eyelashes fluttered slightly. She was still muttering in fear. Her hand gripped his shirt tightly, like it was her lifeline.
The nurse saw it too and tried to pull them apart. However, she found Caroline to be surprisingly strong, despite her small frame.
The nurse looked at Michael.
Seeing this, Michael said, “Kirk, I’m afraid we need you to come with us.”
Kirk was happy to be with Caroline, so he agreed without hesitation.
After the nurse wheeled the bed in, she left the examination room.
As soon as the door to the examination room closed, the nurses couldn’t help but start chattering away.
“I’m so jealous. They must be married, right?”
“Yeah, I think so too. The guy is so worried about his wife. You can tell he’s a great husband. I’m so jealous of that woman. She has a man who loves her so much.”
“And from the way that man carries himself, you can tell he comes from a wealthy family. His clothes don’t even have labels, so they must be custom-made. Even though he’s wearing a mask, I can tell he’s
not bad-looking.”
“He’s rich, loves his wife, and is handsome. Oh my God, this world is so unfair!”
The nurses were chatting happily outside the door, but the atmosphere in the examination room was anything but relaxed. In fact, the air was thick with tension.
Michael finished examining Caroline with a serious expression. He looked at Caroline’s hand, which was
still clutching Kirk’s shirt.
Sighing, he said, “Kirk, you should stay here with the madam. I think she trusts you the most right now.”
Kirk nodded in silence.
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.
