Chapter 631

The next day, Charles had just arrived at the office when several cleaners stopped him.

“Mr. Lane!”

“What’s wrong?” Charles asked, halting in his footsteps.

Noticing the tools in her hands, he couldn’t help but wonder aloud, “Aren’t you guys done with the

cleaning? It’s late.”

“The boss is in there. We don’t have the guts to head in.”

“He’s in there?” Charles asked in disbelief.

A situation like this had been all too common when they had been back in Sarcozia.

But it had been a rare occurrence after Kirk had married Caroline. The only exception was when

everybody had to work overtime.

“Yeah. I heard from the guards that he returned here alone last night and stayed the night,”

explained the cleaner.

“What’s more, it seems like he injured his face.”

Charles‘ heart leaped into his throat. Did Kirk and Caroline get into a fight again?

Charles gingerly opened the door and saw Kirk lying on the couch with his eyes closed.

He squinted to see more clearly and noticed several cuts and bruises on Kirk’s face. It surely didn’t

seem like those were from a woman.

“Get out!” Kirk snapped. His sudden outburst gave Charles quite a fright.

Still, Charles uttered, “Sir… Are you okay?”

Kirk stood up and stared coolly at Charles, which made the latter shudder.

Charles had no idea why Kirk was so mad at him all of a sudden, but then he recalled what had

happened to Caroline lately.

After pondering for a moment, he asked,” Is it because of the madam? Don’t worry, she’s an optimistic person, so she’ll definitely be able to-”

The look Kirk gave him was so piercing that he didn’t finish his sentence.

Hastily, he hurried out of the office to call Sean. At a crucial moment like this, it was best to turn

to Sean for help.

Sean, too, found it strange that Kirk was injured. He grabbed his medical kit and made his way to

SY Group’s branch office.

When Sean arrived, Kirk glanced sideways at Charles, who pretended not to notice his gaze. Sean

also acted as if he didn’t see the look of resistance in Kirk’s eyes.

After asking Charles to leave, he took out a bottle of iodine and some gauze and got to work with a

frown on his face.

“How did you get hurt?” Sean asked, yet Kirk pursed his lips in silence.

Since Kirk wouldn’t talk, Sean was left with no choice but to bring Caroline into the picture. “I

heard that you slept here last night. It’s fine if you don’t want to tell me about it, but what about

Caroline then?

“You didn’t tell her that you stayed the night here, right?”

He continued, “She must be worried sick. I’m sure you’re more aware of this than I am.”

Eventually, Kirk raised his eyes to stare at Sean. A moment later, he said, “I beat Eddy up last

night.”

His answer was so ludicrous that Sean let out a bark of laughter. “You’ve finally taken it out on

him, huh? What happened afterward? Is he hospitalized?”

Kirk’s gaze remained as cool as ever. It was obvious that he was in no mood to share the joke, so Sean put on a serious face and asked, “Why did you two fight?”

Closing his eyes, Kirk said, “Before Uncle Jude died, he said that his biggest regret was not being

able to see Eddy and Caroline together.”

“He’s making your life difficult!” exclaimed Sean. His expression changed instantly after hearing

what Kirk said.

“Caroline thought that she was the reason for his death! Don’t tell me that …”
