Caroline answered, “I heard that Eddy’s been admitted to the hospital. What happened?”
Simon regarded Caroline’s expression. It didn’t seem fake. He asked inquiringly, “Don’t you know,
miss?”
Caroline found Simon’s question quite interesting. “Should I know about it?”
“Ah, that’s not what I meant. It’s just that the news of Mr. Eddy’s hospitalization has been spread
far and wide. I just find it curious that you don’t know about it, Ms. Evans.”
Caroline replied, “Maybe it’s because I’ve been so sad since Grandpa passed away a few days ago.
That’s why I haven’t been paying attention to it.”
Simon looked at Caroline and found himself at a loss for words for a moment.
He had encountered a lot of people in his life, and Caroline was someone he had watched grow up.
Thus, he considered himself someone who knew Caroline very well. She wasn’t someone who
would lie.
That meant that she really had no clue about what had happened that night.
Simon wanted to keep asking further, but they had already come to Jude’s coffin.
Seeing Jude’s face, Simon suddenly remembered his speculation from before that Jude’s death might not be as simple as it seemed. With that, he stopped asking Caroline further questions.
Sometimes, knowing less allowed for a longer life.
“What else hasn’t been arranged yet?”
“The location of the grave. We’ve already agreed with the priest on a time for the burial.
“Since Mr. Eddy’s hospitalization, I haven’t been able to handle some household tasks. The
funeral’s the day after tomorrow, but we don’t even have the simplest menu set.”
These matters should have been handled by the lady of the house. However, Thomas‘ wife had
long ago left the country after their divorce.
As for Jude’s death, she had only sent a short text expressing condolences and nothing else.

Meanwhile, Eddy hadn’t married yet. This was why it was said that not having a lady of the house really made things impossible.
“Leave it to me.” The second Caroline said that the blare of a car horn came from the outside.
Not long after, Eddy limped inside with the aid of a pair of crutches.
“You’re here.” Although he wanted badly to hide the joy in his eyes, the smile on his face still gave him away.
Caroline frowned as she looked at Eddy. “What happened to your leg?”
“It’s nothing serious.” Eddy walked forward to stand before Caroline. “I thought you wouldn’t come
over.”
“Why?” Caroline asked in curiosity.
Eddy opened his mouth. After a second, he realized that he had never spoken to Caroline so
calmly before. “I … um…”
Even though Caroline waited patiently for a long while, he still wasn’t able to say anything
substantial.
