Chapter 238

Frowning, Caroline turned around to find that Eddy had followed her.

Adrian also spotted Eddy. Faced with Osbury’s most respected scion, he nodded indifferently. “Eddy,”

“When did you get here?” Eddy asked as he reached out for Caroline.

He wanted to show that Caroline was his, but Caroline shook him off. She even moved to stand behind Adrian, obviously unwilling to stand with Eddy.

“I don’t think you two got into a fight.” Adrian chuckled sunnily.
