“Of course. Caroline is my sister. How could a brother wouldn’t want her to be happy?” Miguel paused. “I’ve heard from Edwin that you have some connection to the Sherwoods. But even so, Caroline deserves someone better. Thank you for your interest in my sister, but please understand and stop pursuing her.”

The guy before him was handsome, and girls Caroline‘

age were easily swooned over.

If she spent all her time with Dr. Sherwood, it was hard to say she wouldn’t fall for him.

Blake glanced toward the entrance and saw Caroline already standing there, frowning at him.

He looked back at Miguel. “You can’t measure happiness with just money. I’m sure your sister will find her own happiness–she doesn’t need her brothers fretting over it. And I have the right to chase my own happiness, too.”

After saying his piece, he stood up and left.

Miguel sat there in a daze, trying to process Blake’s words.

He’d said so much, yet it seemed to amount to nothing.

Pursuing his own happiness means he wasn’t backing down? He wants to pursue Caroline?

No way!

Miguel glared at Blake, eyes filled with anger. There was no way he’d let this doctor ruin Caroline’s bright futuré.

Blake, however, paid no attention to Miguel’s feelings. He walked out of the coffee shop i gently said, “Shall I take you back to the restaurant?”

“Yes, thank you,” Caroline said, following him to the car and getting into the passenger seat. Then she asked, “What did Miguel say to you just now?”

Blake glanced at her, a faint smile in his eyes. “He said you’re the fiancée of the Sherwood Group’s CEO and didn’t want me getting in the way of your perfect match, and told me to stay away from you.”

Caroline pouted angrily. “Don’t listen to his nonsense! I don’t even know the CEO of Sherwood Group. The idea of being his fiancée is so ridiculous!”

Blake asked, “What makes it so ridiculous?”

His question caught Caroline off guard, “He’s rich, powerful, someone at the top of the world. I’m just a nobody, struggling daily to make ends meet. We live in completely different worlds. There’s no way our paths would ever cross. And even if we did, why would such a successful man–surrounded by countless beautiful and talented women–ever/notice someone as ordinary as me?”

“But that’s just what you think; not what he thinks,” Blake said, looking at her, his brow twitching. “What if he did fall for you, would you marry him?”

Caroline shook her head. “No.”

“Why not?” Blake’s eyes dimmed.

Caroline said, “I know many women dream of marrying someone like him because he’s rich. But how many

of them end up miserable in those wealthy families–living worse than ordinary people? Marrying into wealth isn’t always a woman’s best path. Honestly, I’d rather live like this–free and on my own.”

There’s always a give and take. Going into a powerful family might mean no financial worries, but a lot more rules.

If she’d truly wanted a life free of financial worries, she would have married Linden ages ago–why would she have let Helen have him?

“Being free on your own isn’t bad, but eventually, a girl needs to get married.” Blake’s eyes softened as he looked at her.

In the past, he used to think he and Caroline were alike–both from unhappy families.

But after looking into Caroline’s family, he realized he was luckier than her.

Caroline had no home, and he wanted to give her one.

Caroline looked up, her eyes meeting his. His gaze seemed to hold moonlight, drawing her in.

They remained silently staring at each other for a while until a car horn suddenly blared, snapping Caroline back to the present.

She quickly pulled her gaze away, her heart pounding like a frantic drum.
