Bogus Billionaire ( Shining Riviera )

Chapter 842 

After Michael left, Kirk slowly crouched down. He gently brushed aside some strands of Caroline’s hair 

that were damp from her tears. 

“Caroline, I’m here.” 

His gentle voice was like the first rays of morning sunshine breaking through the darkness. His warm 

breath landed on her brows. 

Caroline’s eyelashes stopped quivering. A moment later, she opened her eyes, like a person who had just 

surfaced from drowning. 

When she saw Kirk, Caroline’s eyes started to well up with tears again. 

“Mr. Y.” 

“It’s okay. It’s safe here,” Kirk whispered. 

Caroline lifted her head and looked at Kirk. After a few moments, her body stopped shaking. She bit her 

lip and slowly asked, “Where is that man? Who is he? Why did he …” 

She couldn’t finish her sentence, and her body started to tremble again. 

Kirk gently stopped her, saying, “Don’t worry, he’s already been arrested. As for the rest, you don’t need to 

think about it. I’ll… have someone look into it.” 

After hearing what Kirk said, Caroline finally felt a little less scared. That was when she realized that she was actually gripping Kirk’s sleeve. 

It wasn’t a big deal, but after she had found out that Kirk had someone else in his heart, she had been 

trying to avoid him. But now… 

She pulled her hand back. “I’m sorry, I …” 

Kirk looked down and saw her hand pulling away. He felt a sense of loss, as if something had been taken 

from him. He asked in a disappointed voice, “Why are you apologizing again?” 

Caroline took a step back and said, “Mr. Y, since your heart belongs to someone else, I think we should… 

just stop seeing each other.” 

Kirk was stunned.

He had indeed said that he loved someone, but that person was her. Still, he couldn’t find it in himself to 

tell her. 

Kirk took a deep breath and said, “She… she won’t be a problem for us.” 

“How can it not affect us?” 

Caroline got a little angry. “Mr. Y, are you trying to play both sides of the fence?” 

Her question left Kirk speechless. 

As he fell silent, someone knocked on the door. 

Michael was at the door. Upon noticing that the color had returned to Caroline’s face, he turned to Kirk 

and asked, “Can I speak to you for a minute?” 

Kirk glanced at Caroline and gave a slight nod. “Wait here for me. I’ll be back.” 

He felt a bit frustrated. Meanwhile, Caroline didn’t want to get involved with him, but she didn’t dare to run 

off now. So she nodded obediently. 

After getting a response, Kirk finally followed Michael out of the examination room. 

Kirk and Michael arrived at the latter’s student’s office. His student was out, so it was just the two of 

them there. 

After closing the door, Michael walked to the desk. He turned the computer on and stared at it for a while 

before finally looking up at Kirk. 

“Kirk, I have some good news and some bad news. What would you like to hear first?” 

Kirk’s temples were pounding. “Bad news.” 

“This incident was a big shock to the madam. She was already very insecure. She thought that meeting her old friend would be a step forward, but this sudden incident has affected that.” 

He continued, “Since she’s more insecure now than she has ever been before, it is likely that she will not 

leave her comfort zone for a while/ 

“What’s the good news?” 

Michael’s face finally broke into a smile when he mentioned the good news. “From what I’ve seen, it’s clear that the madam is very dependent on you. You can finally stay by her side!” 

Kirk had always wanted this.

Michael thought that Kirk would be happy to hear this. But to his surprise, Kirk’s face fell.
