Cheryl knew Gwen was speaking out of anger, so she didn't say much about it. Instead, she said, "Let's not talk about the Hacketts now. We should go in to see Caroline.""Yeah, you're right. You finally managed to get out, so we won't talk about that accursed family anymore. Let's ask Caroline if she wants to eat anything."They returned to the ward as they talked. Their hearts clenched again when they saw Caroline lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling."Carol, you must be hungry after being unconscious for days. What do you want to eat? I'll buy it for you," Gwen softly asked as she walked to the bed.Caroline was still staring at the ceiling. She didn't seem to have heard Gwen's question.Cheryl and Gwen looked at each other anxiously. Just as they were about to panic, Caroline replied, "I'm not hungry."Gwen was overjoyed to hear Caroline speak. Then, she persuaded, "That won't do. You haven't eaten for days. Why don't I go out and buy something you like?"Caroline still s

"Why is he a Morrison? Gwen …" After seeing Caroline vent her emotions, Gwen and Cheryl weren't so worried anymore. They simply hugged her and let her pour out her grievances. When she was tired from crying, Gwen and Cheryl wiped her tears with tissues."It's okay, Carol. Let's not cry anymore. It's all over. It doesn't matter who Kirk is or whether Eddy is dead or alive. It's all in the past and has nothing to do with you. What you should do next is live your life."As Gwen spoke, she was about to cry again. "Carol, you had suffered so much for Eddy in your earlier years. Then, you met Kirk and finally had the chance to live a good life."Now, Eddy is gone. And as for Kirk, let's not deal with him for now and just focus on ourselves, okay?"Caroline nodded. "Okay. We won't worry about this. We'll just live our lives."Gwen finally gave a sincere smile when she saw Caroline calm down and not look as robotic as before. "First things first, you should eat. Can you do that?""Ye

"I thought you would be angry with Kirk after learning that he's Eddy's second uncle. But I didn't expect you to refer to yourselves as an item so soon." Gwen looked into Caroline's eyes. "Carol, I know you don't actually hate him."Since Gwen had seen through her, Caroline stopped hiding how she felt. "I really can't bring myself to hate him, but I can't forgive what he did either. I can't just let go of everything and live happily with him. "But at this point, I have to put our grievances aside and work with Kirk to deal with Thomas."Gwen remembered the bodyguards who had been lying on the ground that night and nodded."So I don't want my issues with Kirk to affect our dealings with Thomas for now. I can make peace with him for the sake of the greater good. For the time being, both of us can just—"Gwen sighed. Then, she said to Cheryl with a smile, "Cheryl, do you think Carol is living such a hard life because of how mature she is?"Cheryl didn't answer, but she lowered

Since Kirk was standing in front, he should be the first to go into the ward. But when he pushed the door open, he hesitated once more.Everyone's worried looks made him realize that whatever awaited him inside might not necessarily be good. And just like that, opening that door became a daunting task for him."You should go in," Sean urged him again. "You should take things as they come. Besides, Michael originally said that he had to observe her condition before you could see her. "But why are you hesitating when you can see her now?"Sean's words touched Kirk's heart. Now that Caroline had allowed him to see her, he could finally do so without worrying. His wish had come true, and nothing else mattered. At the thought of this, Kirk pushed the door open.When the door opened, Caroline raised her head and looked over at Kirk. When their eyes met, they felt a familiar spark between them. But soon, Caroline broke eye contact and looked out the window."Come in. Don't stand outs

"That's right." Sean's voice pulled Caroline's attention away from that sorrowful gaze. "If Thomas doesn't want his huge family fortune to become somebody else's, he has to make another heir.""He needs at least 1 to 2 years to get another child. Do you think Thomas will slow down during this time?" Gwen asked worriedly."If it's just Thomas, we have nothing to worry about." Sean held his chin and said, "His goons are too powerful. It's fortunate that we're in Easton. If we had been in any other country, we would have died that night.""Where did those people come from?" Caroline asked.Sean glanced at Kirk. "Kirk, can we tell them?"Kirk's gaze landed on Caroline. Then, he tightly shut his eyes. "Yes.""Okay." After getting Kirk's permission, Sean no longer hesitated. He said, "Caroline, you remember the group of people you met at the short story competition, right?"Of course, Caroline remembered that. That was her first time getting caught in a large-scale gunfight."The rin

"After learning that he had been disfigured, Finn went nuts. He even thought Kirk had started that fire just to kill him!" At the mention of this, Sean clenched his fists and punched the chair. "I've never seen such a heartless bastard in my life!"Seeing how furious Sean was, even as an outsider, Caroline looked over at Kirk. She couldn't help but think about how helpless and angry Kirk must have been at that time. Then, she frowned upon realizing she was unknowingly feeling sorry for him."What happened next?" she asked, trying to distract herself."Then …" Sean took a deep breath and said, "After the fire, Finn broke ties with Kirk's family. Moreover, he was very gifted in business, so he went on to take over Kirk's family's business."He was only 12 or 13 years old back then. Fortunately, he didn't get to celebrate for long once Kirk became an adult. The two of them were equally matched when it came to doing business. "But Finn probably has a gloomy personality and unfavo

"You're right. The experts on the dark web, especially the top ones, are driven by curiosity. They are no longer interested in how much money they make. Even so, getting their help will be difficult," Sean agreed. "But don't act so glum. Kirk and I have friends who can help with this.""That's good." Gwen sighed in relief. "Without the help of some experts, there's nothing we can do but let Thomas beat us."Sean said, "Don't worry, Gwen. I'll protect both of us."Gwen blushed at his words. "A-As if I'm worried about you. I-I'm worried about Carol." She took Caroline's hand. "Thomas must really hate Carol now. If he knew she was here, he would definitely …" The more Gwen talked, the more worried she became."Don't worry. We need time to rest, and so does Thomas. We just need to get help while he recovers. Thomas wouldn't dare be brazen in Easton. "At most, his plan will be done on a small scale. If we can find some expert fighters, our problems will be solved.""So you two wi

"Their reason for driving Cheryl out of the family was very simple. They must have claimed that Cheryl had offended Eddy. "I'm not sure why things didn't go according to their plan. But I'm sure they wouldn't rest until they kicked Cheryl out of the family."She continued, "Joshua's visit was also a wake-up call for me. So I asked someone to help me keep an eye on the Hacketts and see if any of them made contact with him. "Unexpectedly, someone did get in touch with him.""Who?" Gwen asked curiously."Theodora."Gwen wasn't surprised at all to hear Caroline's answer. At the Hacketts' banquet, Theodora had been constantly trying to cause trouble for Cheryl."They're clearly in cahoots." Gwen sat next to Caroline. "Are you planning to solve Cheryl's problems for her?""I don't have what it takes to do that. I could have handled it if it was just Joshua. But if he and Theodora are working together, things won't be that simple. "If I go against Joshua, Theodora will also be my
