"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
Like everyone else, the person discreetly stared at Kirk. However, his gaze held a touch of curiosity."Mr. Lancaster, is this your first time seeing Ms. Evans?" The people at the table teased him when they noticed he was still staring in Caroline's direction. "Speaking of it, Ms. Evans is indeed quite beautiful. Otherwise, Mr. Eddy wouldn't have become insane after her rejection!"Ferdinand Lancaster replied, "I'm not looking at Ms. Evans. I'm looking at the man beside her. Do you know who he is?" Everyone at the table looked at him strangely. Ferdinand turned around, saw the strange looks, and realized they misunderstood him. "Where have your minds wandered off to? I'm just saying that man looks familiar, like I've seen him somewhere before.""That's impossible!" someone replied confidently. "As far as I know, Ms. Evans' husband isn't well known. How could you have seen him?"Ferdinand was surprised. "So he's Ms. Evans' husband …""Yes, even though he's poor, he's quite ha
Although Cheryl wasn't an official member of the Hackett family, she still expressed her gratitude. "Thank you, Kirk." The Hacketts had caused a lot of trouble for Caroline. Now that Kirk had sold SY Group, all of his strength was gathered in Easton.If he really were to deal with the Hacketts, they would have no way out. His statement indicated that, at least for the time being, he had no intentions of causing trouble for the Hacketts. Cheryl was well aware that this was all because of Caroline. She didn't have much love for the Hacketts, but Selena and Aiden were still her biological parents. There were still some things she couldn't let go of.…At the same time, Caroline had met a nervous man outside the bathroom. The man looked at her reluctantly. She curiously walked past him, but after she had taken a few steps, he mustered up the courage to block her way."Who are you?" She looked at the unfamiliar man. Ferdinand was sweating profusely. The shock from his realization
"If you have any questions, just ask me directly." Ferdinand looked at Kirk's face and felt suffocated by the latter's intimidating look. He didn't dare to speak. "If there isn't a problem, then we'll leave." With that, Kirk took Caroline away. Ferdinand looked at her back and shivered. He had a feeling that he couldn't stay at Evans Group any longer. As he thought of this, he didn't return to the dinner table. Instead, he hastily went downstairs. Just as he reached the ground floor, he was stopped."Are you Mr. Lancaster?" "What do you want?"Ferdinand looked at the person in front of him nervously. He had only recognized Kirk's true identity. Did these people want to silence him by getting rid of him?"Don't be nervous," Charles said with a smile. "It's just that our boss has a few things to explain to you." He hooked his arm around Ferdinand's and took him straight to the car.Ferdinand let out a scream, but then there was silence. Upstairs, Sean came up to Kirk wit
"But I don't think killing him would be that simple. First off, he's leading the Morrisons now, so if he dies suddenly, it will undoubtedly cause an uproar. And if they trace it back to you …" Sean trailed off."Even if they don't find anything on you, Eddy was obsessing over Caroline a while ago. If he dies, the first person everyone would suspect is her," Sean tried to reason with him.Seeing that Kirk remained silent, he continued, "Secondly, Thomas wouldn't let his precious son die at your hands. He will definitely use all of the Morrisons' guards to keep an eye on Eddy. "Besides, once the Shadowers move to Easton, it will take some time for them to adapt. In short, trying to kill Eddy in such a short period of time is just wishful thinking.""Definitely." Kirk was well aware of the situation. "But the first issue isn't a big problem. The real tricky thing is the second issue. We'll need a plan to kill Eddy. What I lack now is opportunity. Once there's an opportunity, I'll d
Kirk stood still as he stared at Caroline's figure from behind. Caroline had only taken two steps when she turned to look back at him. "Why aren't you coming? Do you want to stay here?" she asked. "Caroline …" Kirk started, looking rather worried. Caroline threw him a smile and said, "Don't worry, I won't ask you about it since you said I shouldn't know about it." She continued, "I'm not interested in your identity in the least. Otherwise, I would have asked that employee where he had seen you before instead of letting him go." Kirk felt himself relax at her words. "You think things are fine now, and although I don't think so, I know that the peace we share now might get disrupted if I learn of your identity. So I'd rather maintain things as they are, even though I don't like it." The worry in Kirk's heart vanished after hearing what she said. "Caroline—""Alright. Let's leave," she told him. Caroline glanced at Cheryl, who was surrounded by staff like locusts, and s
