Chapter 6

Half an hour later, Caroline was in the car that Jude had prepared and headed toward Starlust Hotel. Only after she had arrived did she learn from the butler that it was a party.

“Is Eddy here, too?” Caroline asked. She absolutely did not want to see him.

The butler, however, misunderstood. He smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Ms. Evans. He’ll be here soon.”

Caroline was speechless. Would she be able to leave in time?

But then, the door opened. Caroline had nowhere to go. Thus, she greeted, “Grandpa.”

“Oh!” Jude smiled when he saw Caroline. “Come, Carrie. Sit here with me.”

She sat next to him. Just then, she realized that everyone had yet to begin eating. They were probably waiting for someone important to arrive.

As if reading her mind, Jude said with a chuckle, “We’re here to celebrate Eddy’s uncle’s return to the country.”

Although Kirk had asked to keep this a secret, Jude had faith in Caroline. He believed that she would not be loose-lipped.

Caroline was dazed for a moment before remembering that Jude had a brother who had moved out of the country when he was young and single-handedly created a business empire. Rumor had it that his son was even better, turning the company into the largest in the country. However, he kept a low profile and never appeared on the news.

Caroline began feeling excited to see this miraculous person tonight.

Right then, the door opened once again. Caroline looked over at once, but her gaze turned cold instantly.
