My Six Brothers Killed Me (Caroline) novel Chapter 231

Return

Chapter 231 Just a Coincidence

Blake was somewhat related to the Sherwoods and would occasionally visit Sherwood Group. It was probably just a coincidence that she saw what happened earlier.

Caroline didn’t think too much of it.

Feath

“It was nothing. No need to thank me.” Blake had noticed the hint of nervousness on her face and asked, “You seem quite worried that photo might end up in Mr. Sherwood’s hands.”

Caroline replied, “He’s not just anyone. An ordinary person like me couldn’t afford to offend someone like him. It’s best to stay as far away as possible.”

Blake smiled faintly as he looked at her with interest. “Have you met him before?”

“No, never. I don’t even know his name.” Caroline had no interest in those unrelated to her. It was only because the Somertons kept mistaking her for Mr. Sherwood’s girlfriend that she’d learned a bit about him.

All she knew was that he wasn’t someone to mess with.

Blake took a sip of his coffee and asked casually, “If he really did like you, would you marry him?”

Caroline laughed at his words. “Are you kidding? He’s someone dazzling, and I’m just like a speck of dust next to him. We’re on completely separate tracks that will never cross paths, let alone him liking me.”

“I’m just saying, what if it actually happened?”

Blake’s serious tone caught her off guard.

She didn’t understand why he’d ask such a question, but to her, it was pure fantasy.

Not wanting to seem rude, she thought for a moment and replied, “From what I know, rich families come with all kinds of rules and restrictions. That’s not the kind of life I want.”

That alone should’ve made her feelings clear, that she wasn’t interested.

Marrying into a wealthy family sounded nice, but everything has a cost. It all came down to what you value

most.

Blake raised his cup again, lowering his eyes to mask the dim light flickering there.

He could understand Caroline’s mindset. Thankfully, he had long since moved out from his house and lived on his own, keeping his distance from all their rules and drama.

One step at a time, he believed she would come to accept him eventually.

Meanwhile, at the Waterford Gardens, Edwin returned home with his family.

Alaina helped Helen to the sofa, brought out some fruit, and then turned to her husband and said, “Call Teresa right now. Tell her Helen is pregnant with her grandchild and ask her if she wants the baby or not.”

Wealthy families always want grandkids early. She was sure the Graysons were no different.

Just thinking about how Teresa had looked down on Helen and kicked her out still made Alaina furious. This time, she was determined to stand up for her daughter and let that woman know how important Helen

truly was.

“Alright, I’ll call her now,” Edwin agreed. He figured they needed to inform the Graysons as soon as possible so they could arrange the wedding quickly.

While he was on the call, Alaina texted the so–called good news to her close friends.

She’d already told them that Helen was going to marry into the Graysons. Some of them had offered their congratulations, but she could hear the doubt behind their words.

Now that Helen was pregnant with the Graysons‘ grandchild, marriage was practically guaranteed. She couldn’t wait to see how those skeptics would react.

As expected, most only sent a brief congratulations. Only Ruth said she wanted to come over and visit Helen.

Alaina figured she was just being polite and didn’t take it seriously.

Once Edwin finished his call, Alaina couldn’t wait to ask, “What did she say?”
