Chapter 42

Caroline had heard a lot about Eddy’s second uncle, but they’d never met before. Despite that, why

was he so concerned about her?

“Um.. he didn’t explain why, did he?”

“No, he didn’t,” replied Mr. Sander.,

“Alright, thanks.” Caroline sounded slightly dejected because she’d been expecting more.

Upon hanging up, she opened her laptop and started scouring the internet for any information on Eddy’s second uncle.

The man had spent most of his life overseas, so there was barely any news about him at home. A moment later, she realized that even his name wasn’t mentioned anywhere.

Frustrated about her fruitless investigation, Caroline began brushing her hair. Then, she suddenly recalled what the journalists yelled the other day.

Had he noticed Brie bullying her? Perhaps he’d decided to intervene personally because he wanted to protect his family’s reputation?

Caroline massaged her throbbing temples.

She pulled out her phone and gave Jude a call. “Grandpa.”

“Carrie!” The old man sounded like he was in a good mood today. “So you finally remembered to

give this old man a call.”

“I’m sorry, Grandpa.”

“Hahaha, I like your honesty. Now tell me, what brings you to Grandpa? Ah! I’m going to lose this
