Bogus Billionaire Chapter 1129
After giving it much thought, Asher made up his mind to stay away from the dispute. "Do you think it's possible?" Eddy glared at him coldly. "There's no turning back, Asher. Since you've started working with me, do you really think there's a way out?" "But, Mr. Eddy, we … The Hacketts didn't have the funds or capability to deal with Evans Group. "At this point, although the Evanses have suffered losses, the losses the Hacketts have suffered are even worse. If this continues, both our families will be mutually destroyed.""With Morrison Corporation backing you, what are you afraid of?" Eddy asked. Asher looked at him bravely and said, "But Evans Group has SY Group as their support." Eddy's expression changed instantly. "How do you know that?" Asher lowered his head, unsure of how to respond.Eddy chuckled and instantly returned to his cold demeanor after a moment of anger. "That's right," he said. "Evans Group has SY Group to support them. But don't forget, in Kirk's eye

Kirk! That damned Kirk Morrison! This must be his doing! Besides him, Eddy couldn't think of anyone else.No wonder Simon warned him that it wasn't Kirk's acquisition of shares that was frightening. What was frightening would be him using the opportunity to tear open a hole. Now, Kirk had definitely torn open an irredeemable hole in Morrison Corporation. Eddy grabbed his phone and called Kirk. As if waiting for his call, Kirk picked up the call immediately."It was you, right?" Eddy roared into the phone. He could never stay calm in front of Kirk. However, Kirk was the opposite of him—he never seemed to be angered. It was only in matters concerning Caroline that he seemed to lose control.He neither admitted nor denied it, which fueled Eddy's anger even more. "I know it was you, Kirk!" Eddy shouted. "What you're doing is simply hurting yourself to harm your enemies! Don't forget, you still have 20% in the company!"Kirk let out a light chuckle, a laugh that seemed to mock E

After the phone call, Richard knocked on the door and entered. "Mr. Eddy, something bad happened." "What's going on now?" Eddy felt like he was being put to the test. "Several of the company's contracts have been leaked. I've already made the calculations, and the loss would cost us tens of millions of dollars!" Eddy narrowed his eyes. Kirk was retaliating against him! "You useless fools! You can't even prevent data leaks?"As Richard faced Eddy's wrath, he replied, "Mr. Eddy, our computers were invaded with the virus. Right now, it's like we're transparent. They can get whatever data they want, and we can't stop it."Before he could say more, the head of the cybersecurity department, David Sullivan, showed up. In a state of panic, he ran in so quickly that he forgot to knock on the door. "Mr. Eddy, look."David placed a laptop in front of Eddy. A word flashed continuously on the dark screen. "Stop!"Eddy immediately knew what it meant. It was a demand for him to stop tar

Thomas' silence spoke volumes. It gave Eddy his answer. He lit a cigarette defeatedly. "So in your eyes, I'm inferior to him. No wonder Caroline would rather choose him over me.""This isn't your fault." Thomas sighed helplessly. "The fact that he could turn a small business into the largest company in Sarcozia is enough to prove his talent. Such an ability is a gift from God."If those of us without talent insist on comparing ourselves with people who do, we would just be humiliating ourselves. So when I found out that he was coming back to Easton, I did everything to stop him."Eddy narrowed his eyes. "So you planned the car accident?"Thomas' tone remained the same. "Yes, thanks to our family's reputation in Easton, Kirk never found out it was me. But it doesn't matter whether he finds out or not now."He glanced at his phone. "Son, just give up. Many girls in the world are better than Caroline. Once you give up on her and talk to Kirk, we can all move on peacefully.""Dad,

"No strangers are allowed to approach Caroline." Charles replied in confusion."Basically, anyone with ill intentions isn't allowed near Caroline."Charles tried to read between the lines in Kirk's short words. When he realized that he couldn't figure out what he was thinking, he decided to just ask Kirk. "Sir, did something happen?" Kirk rubbed his temples. "Eddy found out.""Found what out?" Charles wondered. "He found out …" Kirk's voice gradually softened. "He found out that Caroline still doesn't know who I am."Charles immediately understood. "Are you worried that he'll use it against you and tell Mrs. Morrison so that she has another meltdown?" "Yeah." "He probably wouldn't, right? Especially not when the Morrison Corporation is facing such a big problem. "He wouldn't cause such big trouble for Mrs. Morrison, would he? Would he give up on the company?"Kirk rubbed his temple. He was mad, but Eddy was also mad. Since they were both mad, one madman wouldn't know wha

"Mr. Hackett," Caroline greeted him. There was no immediate response. But after a prolonged silence, Asher said, "Ms. Evans, I was wrong. I hope you can forgive me."She looked at Cheryl in confusion. The call was on speaker, so Cheryl could hear the conversation too. As she listened, Cheryl understood that the Hacketts had come to the realization that opposing Caroline wouldn't end well, so they had decided to seek forgiveness.These people definitely still feared the CEO of SY Group. "Mr. Hackett, why do I find your words hard to understand?" "M-Ms. Evans," Asher stammered, finding it difficult to express himself. He sighed before continuing, "From now on, Evans Group can use the Hacketts' ports to transport their goods. "Ms. Evans, I apologize for the previous misunderstandings. We'll apologize sincerely when Cheryl returns." With that, Asher hung up. Caroline was still confused.The one thing she could be sure of was that the Hacketts had stopped holding the Evans back!

"Mr. Eddy, you can't go in!" Charles stared at Eddy seriously. Eddy replied with a cold expression, "If you know who I am, where did you get your courage to stop me?" Charles was unmoved."Mr. Eddy, if you have something to discuss with Ms. Evans, we can convey your message on your behalf."Eddy narrowed his eyes. "What does Kirk mean by this? On one hand, he wanted me to apologize to Caroline, and on the other, he won't let me see her. How afraid is he that she'll find his true identity?"Charles didn't answer. Instead, he said, "Please leave!" Eddy stepped out to get out of the car, but he was quickly stopped by Jack. "Mr. Eddy, you wouldn't want to attract the attention of onlookers, would you?"As a matter of fact, Eddy's car had already attracted the attention of onlookers since it had been parked there for such a long time. Eddy took a deep breath. "Ask them. What does Kirk want me to do? I've already attempted to follow his request to apologize to Caroline, but he sto

In addition to the people from the company, Caroline had also invited Sean and Gwen for dinner. At 8:00 pm, everyone gathered at the restaurant. Gwen had heard from Sean that Eddy would temporarily not deal with Evans Group and that the Hacketts had given up cooperating with Morrison Corp and would no longer target Caroline."This is great," Gwen whispered to Sean. "Caroline lost a lot of weight because of this issue with Eddy. Now that Hackett group has stopped cooperating with Morrison Corp, she can at least take a breather.""But the possibility of Kirk's identity getting exposed is increasing," Sean replied with a serious expression, taking a sip of wine. "No way? Cheryl told me that she had to take credit for this so that Caroline wouldn't suspect anything. Caroline really trusts her and wouldn't actively investigate the matter."Besides, it's been so long. Even if she remembers his identity, she would be able to get over it, right?" As she spoke, Gwen couldn't help but

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
