Capítulo 10: Thank You

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Jealousy was about to burn Kelly's rationality. Seeing the two of them disappear out of the door, she immediately said to Balor, "Dad, I heard that if you offend the Anderson family, you'll end up in a terrible state. Sister is usually not good with words, and she easily offends people once she speaks. She won't say anything rude to anger Mr. Anderson, right?"

Unexpectedly, Balor covered her mouth and said in a low voice, "Mr. Anderson doesn't like people talking about the Anderson family. You have to be more careful when you speak outside in the future."

Facing Balor's warning gaze, Kelly's rationality came back, but she did not forget to accuse Caroline. She clutched her chest and exclaimed, "Then Big Sister..."

Balor glanced outside but saw nothing. If he was not afraid of being rude, he would have followed.

Balor was worried, but he continued to criticize Caroline. "If she really messes up this matter, hmph, I will not let her off."

Outside the villa, Caroline stopped in front of the car after sending him off. However, Edwin did not get in the car. Instead, he apologized to her. "I'm sorry. I saw that the door was not closed, and no one answered when I knocked on the door. That's why I walked in."

"It seems that there are too many coincidences today." Caroline didn't mind that others saw this. Instead, she teased, "How was it? Was the scene exciting?"

Caroline didn't look sad, angry, or disappointed after being treated like this by her father. She seemed to be used to it.

Edwin's heart ached and he felt angry. He looked at Caroline and said, "If you need my help, feel free to ask." He paused for a moment. "All kinds of things are fine."

Caroline sized him up. The confusion in her eyes was obvious. "Are you really the Mr. Anderson from the rumors?"

After all, they were in the same circle. Even though she had never met him before, Caroline had heard of his name before. It was rumored that this person was not a good person.

In the face of her blatant suspicion and distrust, Edwin was not unhappy. He only said, "Rumors, they're just rumors. The authenticity of the rumors still needs to be tested. Just like how you, Miss Caroline, are very different from the rumored Miss Lambert."

Caroline shrugged. This was indeed an unsolvable question. "So, why did you come back?"

Edwin suddenly lowered his head and approached Caroline. Caroline subconsciously wanted to fight back, but fortunately, her body didn't react so quickly, so she easily restrained herself. She only tilted her head slightly.

As if he didn't notice her stiff body, he whispered in her ear, "You left something important in my car."

When the warm air blew past her ear, Caroline felt her earlobe itch and wanted to scratch it subconsciously.

She tried her best to control her attention from her ears to the 'important things' he had mentioned. She asked, "What did I leave in your car?"

Caroline thought, 'I didn't even carry my bag. What could I have left in his car?'

Until the white brocade bag appeared in front of her eyes, Caroline's first reaction was to touch the pocket of her coat. She realized that the inside was really flat. She reached her hand in and felt a medium-sized hole.

When she put it on, she didn't even notice that the pocket was broken.

'What kind of lousy clothes are these?' Caroline mumbled in her heart and took the white brocade bag awkwardly.

"It seems that I'm really your benefactor. Is this the third or fourth time today?" Edwin held onto the car door and sat down. He looked at her with a smile in his eyes. "I'll be waiting for your gift, Miss Caroline. I hope it won't disappoint me."

"Who would do something so impolite as to ask for a thank you gift in person?" Caroline held the brocade bag and waved at him. "But I don't mind. Don't worry, I will prepare a thank you gift in advance."

"I'm looking forward to it. Let's go," Edwin said before he drove off.

In the driver's seat, Olag couldn't help but remind him carefully, "Sir, although Miss Lambert's face does look a little like the one you're looking for, it's been so long. If she's really the one you're looking for, there's no way you couldn't find any traces of her."

After all, Caroline Lambert's life for the past ten years had been rather simple.

Edwin, however, only looked out of the window and said coldly, "Go back and receive your punishment!"
