With that, Willow got up and left. However, as she left, she took some food along with her. It was a sharp contrast to what she had been doing just a few seconds before.After she left, no one had the appetite to eat anymore. They all comforted Cheryl, telling her it was okay. She forced a smile. "Don't worry, everyone. I'm fine. Besides, the court is a fair place. They wouldn't be biased."I really am fine. I think I drank too much water. I'll head to the restroom," she said once again with a forced smile. As she walked to the door, Jack stood up to follow her, but Caroline stopped him. "I'll go."Gwen supported her, saying, "It's best to let Carrie go and comfort her." Hearing them, Jack sat back down. "It'll be fine," Caroline reassured him. She got up and headed toward the restroom. Soon, she found Cheryl crying on a toilet seat in an open stall. She handed her tissues. Cheryl looked up in surprise, but upon seeing Caroline, she threw herself in the latter's arms and c

"That's strange," Caroline said thoughtfully. "If no one in your family is studying law, then who gave your mother the idea to sue you?" Even though they were now in the modern age, the older generation was still adapting to using phones, and going to court was still a foreign concept for most people. If anything happened, it was usually dealt with personally. Matters like these were rarely taken to court. Moreover, Willow had looked so triumphant, as if the judge had already awarded her the one million dollars. Hence, Caroline found it suspicious.Cheryl frowned. She considered it for a moment before shaking her head. "Most of my family members dropped out of school after junior high. Even if some of them attended high school, very few made it to college. Most either work at a company or run their own business."But becoming a lawyer? No, none of them could be one." Caroline immediately understood. "Then it isn't someone in your family who's giving these ideas to your moth

Caroline seemed to be asleep. So Kirk gently carried her and got out of the car. Caroline remained nestled in his arms, not struggling in the slightest. Kirk smiled softly at how soundly she was sleeping. No matter how much time passed, watching Caroline sleep always made him remember the best time of his life.He carried Caroline to the room and gently placed her on the bed. Just as he was about to get up, she wrapped her arms around his neck.Kirk's expression shifted at her actions.On the bed, Caroline suddenly opened her eyes and looked at him cunningly. "You can't get away now, can you?"Kirk's expression changed slightly, but he still pretended to be calm. "What do you want?""For you to sleep with me." Although Caroline had spoken softly, she still voiced how she felt. She wanted to take things step by step until Kirk was ready to remove his mask around her.Kirk knew what she was up to just by looking at her gaze, and he grabbed her arms. "Knock it off, Carrie.""I

Willow was now relaxing on a big bed in a luxurious five-star hotel. This was the first time in her life that she slept in such a comfortable bed. Just as she was enjoying herself, she heard the door open.Willow sat up on the bed in shock. Upon seeing a beautiful woman walk into the room, she became a little more timid.Just like the woman had told her on the phone, Willow had gone to the hotel to see Cheryl and tell her that she would sue her. This woman was so resourceful that she even knew that Cheryl wasn't Willow's real daughter.At this thought, Willow stepped back and looked at the woman before her warily.The moment Aurora had entered the room, she had looked at Willow from head to head.After making sure Willow matched the gullible image of the rural woman in the photo, Aurora asked disdainfully, "Are you Cheryl's mother?"Willow nodded. "Hello.""Well, have you told Cheryl?""Yes. Can I really get one million dollars if I do this?"Aurora's gaze was filled with co

As Willow looked at the script over and over again, she felt hesitation wash over her. However, she no longer had the chance to back out because the crew had already finished setting up and were urging her to begin....When Caroline went to work the next day, she got some bad news. The goods that needed to be exported from Orbisia Port were stuck at the port. They couldn't move them by an inch."Why?" Caroline asked, visibly upset. If they didn't ship out these supplies, Evans Group would lose millions of dollars.Cheryl's mood wasn't affected by what Willow had said yesterday. She opened the documents and explained, "The Hacketts have always rented Orbisia Port. I guess they gave the order not to let us export our supplies."Caroline's expression shifted at her words. "The Hacketts?"She immediately thought of Aurora and Asher's relationship. Then, she remembered that unpleasant meal back then.Caroline asked, "Can we deliver our goods from another port?""We can, but it wo

Upstairs, Aiden and Selena thought they had misheard the housekeeper. They asked each other in unison, "Did you hear that?"After a while, they gradually calmed down and walked out of the room.When the housekeeper saw Aiden and Selena walking out, she said excitedly, "Please wait a moment, Ms. Lewis. Mr. Hackett Senior will be down soon."Cheryl was speechless. After three minutes, she finally heard Aiden's trembling voice on the phone, as if he was trying to control his emotions. "Hello, I'm Aiden Hackett." Cheryl thought she was overthinking things. Aiden was a stranger. He wouldn't be so excited to answer a phone call."Hello, I'm Cheryl Lewis." Cheryl almost forgot her reason for calling them. "I'm calling to set an appointment. We heard that you've just returned, and Ms. Evans would like to visit you. Is that all right?""Yes, of course, that's okay. Well …" When Cheryl was about to hang up the phone, Aiden asked hurriedly, "Cheryl—I mean, Ms. Lewis, will you be joinin
Bogus Billionaire Chapter 1045
Confused, Aiden and Selena took Asher's phone. When they saw the article, their expressions shifted at the same time.The news article detailed a shocking scandal about Evans Group's CEO's assistant. It said that she didn't support her parents. She shouted at them, hit them, and even tried to kill her own brother. They called her a scumbag.Aiden and Selena felt their hearts beating faster with every sentence they read."That's impossible. How could Cheryl be someone like that? I don't believe it." Selena shook her head, falling onto the couch. "I don't believe it."Seeing this, Aurora approached Selena. She patted her back and said, "Mrs. Hackett Senior, there's no way Cheryl is someone like that. There must be some sort of misunderstanding.""That's right! There has to be a misunderstanding!" Selena seemed to have thought of something and grabbed Asher. "We've investigated her. Cheryl's family treats her pretty well, but since Caroline took over Evans Group, Cheryl's salary

Once she got in the car, Aurora couldn't resist letting a triumphant look appear on her face. She glanced at Asher, who had finally walked out of the Hacketts' residence. When she saw him smiling, she knew that their plan had succeeded.Sure enough, when Asher got in the car, he said cheerfully, "My parents have agreed to our terms. They said that as long as you help my sister with this issue, we can get married."Upon hearing this, Aurora snuggled into Asher's chest in relief. But there was a hint of panic in her tone as she asked, "Sweetheart, do you think I'm manipulative for doing this?"Asher said with a smile, "Of course not. It was because of your help that the Hacketts and Morrisons were able to work together. Honey, you're so incredible that I wanted to marry you long ago. "Unfortunately, my family didn't agree to that. So, we've made our parents agree to our marriage on the condition that we help my sister. Although that doesn't sound pleasant, we don't have a choice.

Soon, Kirk and Caroline met up with Thomas. When he saw the two of them, his eyes turned bloodshot from the rage boiling within him. "You won!" He spat with so much force that it seemed like he had used up all his strength for it. "Things didn't have to come to this," Kirk said calmly as he sat down beside Thomas. Thomas snorted derisively. "Oh really? If you hadn't chosen to marry Caroline at such short notice, do you think Eddy would have died? You two were the cause of the tragedy!" Caroline didn't feel like talking anymore after seeing how foolishly adamant Thomas was. She gave Kirk a look, and he hummed in acknowledgment. When he turned to face Thomas again, his eyes were frosty "I'm here to tell you something," he said.Thomas let out a bark of scornful laughter. "Why? What else do you have to tell me, huh? Are you going to tell me that you have a child now?" "It's not about me and Caroline's child. It's about yours," Kirk stated plainly as he stared at Thomas

"Yes, it's true! Why would I lie to you about something so important?" Betty said. "This is wonderful! Marietta's wish has finally come true." Caroline turned to look at Marietta, who had just stopped by the door. Marietta was so shocked by the results that she was too stunned to speak. All she did was stare at Caroline in silence. Caroline opened her lips to speak, but no words came out of her mouth. She and Marietta stood facing each other, tears streaming down their cheeks. The next second, the two of them rushed toward each other and hugged each other as tightly as they could. The words that were at the tip of their tongues turned into tears at this significant moment. The others felt touched as they witnessed the mother-daughter duo's reunion. After some time, Betty broke the silence. "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and call her 'Mom'!"Caroline had once used that word to address Marietta, but she hadn't known that Marietta was her biological mother back then.

Blushing, Caroline nodded. However, Kirk couldn't lift his head due to his injuries. So, Caroline took the initiative to bend over so that she was closer to him. Their lips touched. Yet before Caroline could get that warm, fuzzy feeling she always had when they kissed, she heard Gwen's voice. "Oh? Did we come at the wrong time?" Gwen grinned.It gave Caroline such a shock that she almost fell to the ground. Cheryl reacted quickly and gave Caroline an arm to hold on to for support. Steadying herself, Caroline stared daggers at Gwen, who giggled and placed the supplements she had brought on a table. Sean and Kirk started discussing what had happened that day, while Caroline led Gwen and Cheryl out of the ward. "Are you two back together?" Gwen asked. There was a sparkle in her eyes, which said enough about how eager she was to gossip. When Caroline nodded, Gwen patted her back gleefully and said, "Great! We all know how much Kirk loves you, even though he kept his ident

As Caroline mentally prepared to face death, there was a sudden, loud commotion. The noise was followed by gusts of wind that were so strong that no one could pry their eyes open to see what was going on. Still, Caroline could make out the silhouette of a helicopter above her. She had no idea what had happened next, though. …When she woke up, she was already lying on a bed in a ward. Beside her were Betty and Marietta, their eyes red and puffy from crying. When they noticed that Caroline was awake, the two of them shot up from their chairs."Carrie? You're finally awake!" Still groggy, Caroline forced herself to hum in response. After getting up, she grabbed Betty's hand and said, "Where's Kirk?" "He's fine," said Betty while wiping the tears off her cheeks. "He's in another ward, but he hasn't woken up yet." "Can I see him?" Caroline asked, tearing up. Betty nodded and asked Sean to push Caroline's wheelchair to the ward next door. Caroline couldn't hold back her

Kirk and Caroline hadn't even caught their breaths yet when they sensed a more intense attack coming their way. It didn't seem like these people were human. They seemed like monsters, bringing destruction wherever they went. Caroline watched the situation outside in concern. "Why hasn't Nightshade come back yet? Did he lie to us?" she asked. Kirk gritted his teeth and replied, "No, he wouldn't. They're all people from the dark web, and they're all honorable. Since he promised to bring the top two assassins, he'll definitely come back."As he spoke, he pushed her into a car. "But before that, you have to leave first," he insisted.Caroline noticed that his words were only directed at her. She grabbed his hand tightly. "What do you mean by that?"What did he mean she had to leave first?He replied, "Finn has sent over all his trump cards. If you don't leave, I have no doubt that he'll come here too. So, you need to leave now!" Caroline grabbed his hand. "We haven't gone to Ci

When she saw his reaction, Caroline couldn't help but smile. "What I mean is, let's head to City Hall to re-register our marriage certificate. The information we used to register our marriage before was all fake. "Can we update it with the real information now?"Kirk brightened up. "No problem."She looked at him and smiled again. However, it disappeared as quickly as it appeared. "Oh, I forgot about Thomas. Do you think he'll send someone to ambush us when we go to City Hall?"Kirk fell silent. He didn't want to change the plans, but he still said, "Then, let's wait for Nightshade to find the assassins—"Before he could finish his sentence, gunshots rang out from downstairs. His face dropped, and he rushed to the window, where he saw two groups of people engaged in a gunfight. One of the groups was Thomas' men."What's going on?" Caroline asked as she got up from bed."Thomas must have found out that Nightshade left, so he took the chance to ambush us."Kirk led her to a

"If you make up with Kirk, I'll help you find them both."Caroline and Kirk were stunned to hear Nightshade's condition. Kirk had never expected Nightshade to say such a thing. Caroline was also in disbelief. She felt somewhat reluctant to agree to it."You don't agree?" Nightshade asked when Caroline remained silent. "Alright then, if you disagree, I won't look for them. Besides, Thomas is already planning to go all out against you. "When the time comes, I can escape. But what about you two?"Caroline looked at Kirk. "Thomas plans to go all out against us? You're not lying to me?"Kirk met her eyes and gulped. "No."She pondered for a moment, then looked at Nightshade again. "Do you really have a way to help us find the two assassins?""Of course.""Okay." Caroline lowered her head. "As long as you can help us find those two assassins, I'll agree to your condition."On the other side of the room, Betty and Marietta exclaimed excitedly when they heard her words. "Carrie, do

When Betty noticed how confused everyone looked, she said, "Oh, dear. Did you all forget?"Back then, when Marietta did the DNA test with that girl from the Hackett family—no, the fake Ms. Hackett—Caroline was the one who went to the restaurant with her."She continued, "Didn't we look through the footage from that day? Then, we called in the people who were at the restaurant that day to do another DNA test."Although they had unfortunately been unable to find Marietta's daughter, Betty still considered it a great effort. "We had thought that we had tested everyone. But there was someone who we didn't test!" Betty's eyes lit up as she looked at Caroline. Marietta immediately understood what she meant. She looked at Caroline with excitement, but she didn't dare to get her hopes up. "Caroline…"Caroline also looked at Marietta excitedly. "I… Aunt Mary… this… Is it possible?"Betty replied, "Why wouldn't it be possible? We tested so many people back then, and you were the only

Sarah was about to tell Caroline, but Dan stopped her."Don't tell her. Let her live in pain without ever knowing who her real parents are. Besides, do you really think she will get us the best lawyer?"Caroline wasn't upset that they hadn't taken the bait. Instead, a small smile appeared on her face. "You still have some sanity left."Upon realizing her trick, Sarah shouted angrily, "You liar!"However, she was taken away before she could shout more. Caroline watched as Sarah and Dan disappeared in the police cars. The feigned strength on her face finally disappeared. She might never find her parents in this life. But she didn't regret it. She tilted her head and glanced at Kirk, Cheryl, and Jack beside her. She had no regrets anymore.Even though she couldn't get her parents back, she was content that she had so many friends."Let's head back." Caroline's voice was weary. She needed a good rest, but there was still a tough battle waiting for her. The news about Caroline n
