As soon as the manager made this suggestion, Aurora stared at her gloomily. Her gaze made her manager tremble, and she was about to cry."Don't look at me like that, Aurora. I-I just think that since Mr. Asher won't help you, you should ask Mr. Eddy for help instead. Mr. Eddy is at odds with Caroline right now. Perhaps he'll help you when he finds out what you've done."A ferocious smile appeared on Aurora's face. "You're right. Since Eddy and Caroline are at odds, he'll definitely help me. Definitely."As she spoke, hope reappeared in her eyes. She walked to her dressing table. When she looked in the mirror, a disheveled and pale reflection no longer greeted her. Instead, she looked high and mighty once more. As the manager watched Aurora, she felt a chill run down her spine....The online backlash against Aurora continued. However, Caroline didn't keep reading the comments. Instead, she left the public relations department and went to the first floor. Kirk was still there,
"What parent would repeatedly push their daughter into a corner?"Kirk's words shocked Charles. He was right. This was the first time Charles had seen such parents. At first, he had thought Sarah and Dan were driven by profits. But they had continued to sabotage Caroline time and time again. There was no way Caroline was actually their daughter."Yes, sir. I understand."…Meanwhile, Caroline bumped into Cheryl at the door when she returned to the office."Caroline, our problem is finally resolved!""Yeah. So, I want to invite all of you to dinner tonight. Book a table at a quiet place."Cheryl agreed, "All right, I'll handle it immediately." After saying that, she went to make a reservation in high spirits.After getting off work, they went to the hotel together.…Betty and Marietta had been traveling to other cities in Easton for the past few days. Since their search for Marietta's daughter hadn't been getting anywhere, Betty had thought of taking Marietta out for a tr
"Jack?" Cheryl murmured, suspecting that she was in a dream. The next moment, she couldn't resist throwing herself into Jack's arms. When she hugged Jack's muscular body, she was sure she wasn't dreaming.Jack was also taken aback by her strong embrace. After a moment, he pursed his lips and carefully raised a hand to pat Cheryl's shoulder. "Hey! I just got off the plane. Sir told me you guys were here for dinner, so I came too."Everyone knew Kirk's secret except for Caroline, who had lost her memories. Jack felt much more relaxed now that he no longer needed to put on any pretenses. It was tough for a brute like him to put on an act. Cheryl finally realized what she had done and quickly let go of Jack. "I'm sorry, Jack. I-I'm really excited because I haven't seen you for a long time."Jack looked at the curls in Cheryl's hair. After thinking about it, he mustered the courage to say, "Cheryl."Cheryl slowly looked up at him."I …" Jack was at a loss for words when Cheryl lo
Once Caroline was done reminding Sonia, she and Kirk got into their car and left. Everyone else followed suit and went their way as well.As Caroline sat in the back seat, she rubbed her belly and whispered, "I'm so full."Kirk heard her and turned to look at her. "Why don't I rub your belly?"Before Caroline could reply, Kirk placed his hand on her belly. Then, she felt a ticklish, warm feeling spreading throughout her body. She blushed slightly. "Kirk …" Kirk looked up at Caroline. "How do you feel?"Caroline wanted to say she felt even more uncomfortable. It wasn't because of her stomach, but because of Kirk's actions. However, she said with a smile, "I feel much better.""Really?" Kirk met Caroline's eyes, his gaze turning a little stern.Caroline couldn't help but straighten in her seat at his gaze. "Yeah, I'm really better now." Why did she get the feeling that Kirk was being a bit rough right now?"You liar!" Kirk said, giving Caroline no room for discussion. "You're cl
Eddy turned his back to Aurora and explained, "You don't need to know the reason at the moment. Just tell Caroline you want to apologize and ask her to bring the man by her side. I don't care how you do it, but she needs to bring him."As Aurora listened to him, she gradually understood his intentions. Eddy's target didn't seem to be Caroline, but rather the man by her side.Sure enough, Eddy continued, "When you meet them, you must find a way to remove the mask on that man's face."Aurora was silent for a moment. Realizing she had no choice, she said, "I'll try.""You can't just try. You have to succeed!"Aurora frowned. However, Eddy was still in charge here, so she nodded. "All right, Mr. Eddy. I'll head home and figure out a way to do that."Once Eddy nodded in agreement, she left. Even after she had gotten in the car, she still had a lot of questions.Her manager approached her and asked, "How did it go? Did Mr. Eddy agree to work with you?"Aurora replied, "More or less."
As Caroline spoke, she frowned. "You don't look so good. Did you not sleep well last night?"Cheryl quickly denied it, even though that was indeed the case."I'm sure you didn't rest well last night. How about this? Sonia and I will go there ourselves. You should stay behind and rest," Caroline suggested. Then, she turned to Sonia, who had already touched up her makeup. "Are you ready to leave, Sonia?"Sonia checked her makeup once more. After making sure everything was fine, she replied, "I'm ready.""All right. Let's go.""Caroline." Cheryl followed Caroline. "I'm fine. I don't need to rest, so take me with you."Caroline glanced at Cheryl with concern. "Are you really okay?"Cheryl assured her that she was fine once again. Caroline glanced at the time. They needed to go, so she told Cheryl, "Let me know if you feel unwell."Cheryl nodded. Then, they set off for their destination.Since Caroline had already gotten rid of the reporters at the back entrance in advance, they
Caroline and Cheryl returned to the office after telling Sonia to stay behind to discuss the advertising content.On their way back, Caroline said, "Soon, the other companies will find out that Sonia is promoting Mr. Mitchell's company." Caroline took her tablet out and opened the information about the remaining companies Evans Group worked with. "So I'll be visiting these companies.""All right. Then, I'll get off at the next intersection and take a cab back to the office.""No." Caroline looked at the documents. "I've already looked up their addresses. We'll pass by the office on the way to the next company. So you don't need to go through the trouble. I'll ask the driver to drop you off at the entrance.""Okay." Cheryl nodded.Half an hour later, they arrived at the entrance of Evans Group. Seeing that Caroline was still reading her documents, Cheryl said goodbye before getting out of the car. However, someone walked toward her before she could close the door, yelling and c
Cheryl watched uneasily as her mother entered the building before looking back at Caroline. "Caroline."Caroline said, "Cheryl, this is a family matter, so I can't really get involved. You should do what needs to be done." After that, she got into the car.As Cheryl watched the car drive away into the distance, she felt a warmth in her chest. The meaning behind Caroline's words couldn't be more obvious. She was telling her that she could use the company's resources however she wanted.Caroline wouldn't interfere with her decisions, even if she wanted to get security to drive her mother away. At the thought of this, Cheryl had mixed feelings as she caught up with her mother.…At this moment, Caroline was in the car. After thinking about it, she felt she should tell Jack about what had just happened.Yesterday, she had noticed Cheryl visibly becoming more cheerful after Jack arrived. She had also seen Jack stealing glances at Cheryl. They were probably in love with each other, a
