Only Caroline and Gwen looked at the road with worried expressions.Gwen felt it wasn't a good sign that Kirk and Eddy hadn't reached yet. "Carol, has Kirk still not sent you a message?"Caroline looked at her phone. "Nope.""Why don't I give Sean a call?"Caroline pinched the bridge of her nose. "Okay."Gwen took out her phone and called Sean. However, he didn't answer the call. As Gwen held the phone worriedly, she repeatedly prayed for Sean to answer. She didn't know how many times she did this before someone finally answered the phone."Sean …""Yeah," Sean said with a hint of fatigue. "What's wrong?"Gwen glanced in Caroline's direction. She coughed and said, "Didn't you say you were coming? The banquet is about to end. Why aren't you two here yet?"Sean smiled softly. "Are you worried about me, Gwen?"Gwen blushed at his question. "Quit boosting your ego. It's …"She glanced at Caroline again. Caroline hadn't noticed her, but she still blushed and turned around. She

When Kirk and Sean arrived at the Hacketts' residence, the banquet was nearing its end.Although Sean's status as a genius doctor in Macldo caused a stir, and Kirk's good looks attracted the attention of every woman present, everyone was still focused on Eddy's absence. After discussing it in private, everyone still believed that Eddy hadn't shown up because he was unhappy that the Hacketts had stopped their collaboration with Morrison Corp and stopped targeting Evans Group.Gossip was difficult to control, so Aiden quickly caught wind of their remarks. He was already in a bad mood, but this made him feel even worse.So after the banquet, Theodora seized the chance to stop all the Hackett family members who were leaving."Is there anything else?" Aiden frowned, looking at Theodora with displeasure. It was getting late, and so many troubling things had happened tonight. He just wanted to rest.With a merry smile, Theodora said, "Aiden, you've seen what happened tonight. Eddy refu

There were too many people in the Hackett family. But judging from his appearance, Cheryl believed this man had a high standing in the family. Aiden's expression was cold the entire time. He didn't say anything at all. Meanwhile, no one else dared to say anything.In the end, the old man said, "Aiden, I know you lost Cheryl when she was a child, and you were separated for more than 20 years. But if you disregard the entire family's interests for the sake of your daughter, then you truly disappoint us.""The reason why Mr. Eddy didn't show up may not be because of Cheryl. But you're all so eager to drive her away. I can tell what your intentions are," Aiden said with an icy expression.Cheryl was a little surprised to see Aiden like this. She had thought that he would choose his family's interests over her without hesitation. When he defended Cheryl, everyone else was even more afraid to speak.The old man's expression turned dark. "What are you saying? We have no bad intentions

It wasn't until Cheryl disappeared upstairs that Selena started crying. "Why is her life so miserable? It would be nice if she had zero connection to Evans Group."Cheryl still didn't know that although Aiden was the head of the Hackett family and was in charge of all their family affairs, the family elders usually made the major decisions within the family.In other words, if the old man really brought this issue up with the family elders, they would only consider their family's interests. They wouldn't consider Cheryl's blood connections at all. Besides, she was also a woman.Aiden hugged Selena gently. "Don't worry. I won't let Cheryl leave us again!"Selena sobbed.However, Cheryl, who was upstairs, was still unaware of her dangerous situation....At this moment, Caroline looked at the scenery outside the car window while Kirk held her hand tightly. Neither of them said anything.Caroline felt like she could hear Kirk's heartbeat in the silence.After another five minut

Kirk finally put down his phone after Charles hung up. Then, he squinted slightly and gazed at the distant, bright moon. He would only be relieved after seeing Eddy's lifeless body. The night passed in silence after that. …The next day, Caroline woke up to have breakfast with Kirk. After eating, she left for work.Now that Eddy wasn't stirring up trouble, every day was a good day for her. Caroline felt that she had fallen in love with going to work. However, when she heard people spouting nonsense during meetings, Caroline thought leaving this job to Kirk was better.She didn't even know what he did exactly. But she was still sure of one thing. Kirk's identity wasn't as simple as he had claimed. At that thought, she felt a mild pain in her forehead again. Caroline pressed her temples firmly. The pain felt like needles piercing through her skin and into her veins. "Ms. Evans!"Right then, Caroline's newly appointed assistant, Stephanie Watson, walked in. Seeing Caro

Caroline cast a scornful glance at Joshua. She thought he was much more intelligent than Willow. As a university student, he was more insightful than Willow, who had spent her whole life in the countryside. Moreover, Joshua emanated this energy, as if he were bold and fearless. With the right guidance, a person like him could become remarkable. Unfortunately, he had strayed from the proper course. Otherwise, Caroline would have given him the same resources she had given Cheryl. "I heard you're close with Cheryl. Besides, I also heard that she even used her return to the Hackett family as a condition to save you. "I know my silly sister well. She would risk her life for the people she cares about. "And she truly doesn't care about money. Even after learning that she's the daughter of the Hackett family, she didn't want to return. That's because she values her relationships more," said Joshua.Caroline replied, "You do know your sister well. It looks like she must have riske

Joshua rose, saying, "You won't. I'm sure you'll say yes. Alright, it's getting late. I should take my leave now. Ms. Evans—"As he spoke, he took out an A4 paper and handed it to Caroline. "This is my number. I'll give you three days to think about it. I hope to get the answer I want."After saying that, he left confidently.Caroline stared at his retreating figure, pressing her temples. He was truly something.He could see that the Hacketts hadn't sincerely accepted Cheryl. That was why he had the guts to approach her without evidence and make such audacious demands. …At noon, Gwen came to have lunch with Caroline. Noticing that the latter was distracted, she asked curiously, "What's the matter with you? Is the food not to your liking?"Caroline briefly recounted the morning's events. "So, in the end, you can only ask Cheryl to be your spy?"After listening to Caroline's story, Gwen also thought that Joshua was shrewd and clever. Moreover, he had just seen them once, bu

"Mrs. Hackett Senior, everyone has their destiny. If the family elders think I should leave this family, I won't stay."In fact, Cheryl was more than willing to leave the Hackett family immediately. She was Aiden and Selena's biological daughter. However, she had moved away from them at a young age. Hence, she knew nothing about them and was not emotionally attached to them. Moreover, the Hackett family wasn't friendly. The chaos at the banquet was enough to show that. Cheryl couldn't help but wonder what other surprises awaited her if she stayed with them."Don't worry, Cheryl. I'll never let you leave the Hacketts. If the family elders insist on you leaving, I'll go with you," said Selena.After that, she looked at Aiden. "Aiden, I'm not kidding. If those people are unreasonable and want to kick my daughter out because of Eddy, I'll divorce you!"Selena's tone was firm. It didn't sound like she was joking at all. Aiden massaged his throbbing temples before replying, "We'v
