Chapter 371
Just as Caroline was about to reach the door, she breathed a sigh of relief. Then, she heard a deep, m
ature voice behind her again. “Caroline!”
Caroline’s body shook at his voice. For a moment, she really thought it was Kirk calling her.
However, after calming
down, she could clearly tell that the voices of Kirk and Eddy’s second uncle were different.
Although their voices
had the same magnetic allure, Kirk sounded more casual, while Eddy’s second uncle sounded more m
ature and authoritative.
She took a deep breath and turned around. She asked, “Is there anything else, sir?”
Kirk didn’t answer Caroline’s question. Instead, he looked at Daphne’s manager
and ordered, “Get a few people to bring the gifts in.”
When Daphne heard there were gifts, she immediately smiled.
Everyone else also expressed their envy.
“You’re so doting to your wife! I’m so jealous!”
Among all the excitement, Caroline stood at the door, bewildered. Since Kirk didn’t say anything, she di
dn’t dare leave. However, she couldn’t get a word in, so she could only wait at the door.
After a while, several bodyguards walked in carrying a large pile of gifts. Each one was beautifully wrap
ped. Everyone could tell it was worth a lot of money with just a glance.
Daphne hadn’t expected Kirk to buy her so many gifts. Her heart kept pounding wildly as she eyed the
gifts closely.
The small mountain of gifts also stunned everyone else. Most of these people were wealthy ladies from
the upper class, and they spent money without mercy.
However, a gift from a spouse was completely different from something one bought for
themselves.
At first, they had complimented Kirk and Daphne’s relationship for the sake of flattery. But after
seeing so many gifts, their envy had changed them beyond recognition.

He used all his strength to reign in his irrationality, his lips trembling from effort. “It’s nothing. I just have
n’t seen Eddy and Uncle Jude for a long time. How are they?” He spoke with the air of a
senior.
Caroline didn’t suspect anything. “They’re doing good. In fact, I also haven’t seen them for a long
time.”
Upon seeing things turn
out like this, everyone looked at them unhappily. This was completely different from what they had expe
cted. They had wanted to see Caroline humiliated. Therefore,
they lost interest in their conversation.
Caroline said goodbye after seeing that Kirk had no intention of talking to her anymore. She hadnovelbin
just taken a few steps when she heard a guest’s teasing voice behind her.
“Since you just returned from abroad, you must have bought gifts for your wife, right?”
The word “gifts” made Caroline’s heart sting and ache. Then, she thought of Kirk again. If nothing
had happened, she would also get a gift from Kirk, right?
Thinking of this, she quietly quickened her pace, trying to drown out the warm laughter behind
her.
