Caroline shuddered when she heard those words. She finally knew the reason why Shirley changed her attitude toward this forced marriage.
As it turned out, Nathan was the head of the Faraday family.
The Faraday family was the most prestigious family in Yarwood, though they were quite a mysterious bunch. Everyone in the city knew of the head of the Faraday family. According to the rumors, he was unattainable and handsome. Moreover, he was also a legendary figure in the business industry, despite his young age.
Shirley dreamed of marrying him, but when the Faraday family came to propose the marriage to her, she found out that she was marrying Nathan, who was born an illegitimate child.
It was no wonder that Shirley showed up at Royal Garden this quickly and couldn’t wait to reclaim her identity as Nathan’s wife.
Now fully understanding the situation, Caroline cast an icy glare at her youngest sister. “Got it!”
Just then, Shirley raised her hand and wiped the foundation off of the right side of Caroline’s face, revealing a large and nasty scar.
Caroline had the same appearance as Shirley. The only exception was that the former had a scar on her face. Hence, whenever Caroline was pretending to be her youngest sister, she’d use foundation to cover the scar up.
In Shirley’s eyes, Caroline was an ugly country bumpkin, while she herself was the most beautiful woman in Yarwood.
“Mrs. Faraday, Mr. Faraday has returned,” announced the housekeeper.
Nathan had arrived.
Shirley shot Caroline a warning look, then straightened her dress and went over to greet her husband enthusiastically.
The door to the mansion was pushed open, inviting a cold gust of wind inside. Following that, a tall and straight figure appeared on the doorstep.
Caroline looked up and saw Nathan.
The man was wearing a black-colored suit that was handmade for him. The luxurious fabric was crisply ironed and only served to accentuate high and mighty elegance.
He was incredibly handsome, and his facial features looked as if they were carved to perfection by a master artist. Just his side profile was able to showcase an air of classic elegance that one could see in film noir.
Undoubtedly, the man from last night was him.
