Kirk didn't mean anything when he said that. He was just jealous that Caroline was out with Adrian, but Caroline ended up reaching a different conclusion after hearing his words.

"Hey, who I have lunch with doesn't concern you. Remember, we've already fallen out. If it weren't for Thomas, I wouldn't even want to see you right now."

People tended to be irrational when they argued, saying the most hurtful words to upset the other person.

The same was true for Kirk and Caroline at this moment.

"Do you really not want to see me that much?" Kirk held his chest. His injuries hadn't fully recovered.

Caroline turned around, not wanting to see his face. "Yeah, I don't want to see you at all. Every time I do, I remember being played by you like a fool."

"Fine! If you don't want to see me, then leave! Get the hell out!"

"Fine! I don't want to be here anyway!" Caroline yelled. Then, she stormed out of the room. But when she reached the door, she heard Kirk coughing violently.

She paused

    Kirk got out of bed, opened the door, and walked to the room next door.The door was still closed after Caroline had slammed it shut. It was quiet inside, and he couldn't hear a single sound. She was probably asleep."I'm sorry," Kirk whispered through the door. Only at this time could he be frank about his feelings.At this moment, Caroline wasn't asleep. Instead, she was sitting by the window, looking at the moon. Kirk's apology was too quiet, so she didn't hear him.Moreover, all her attention was on that bright moon, so she naturally wouldn't notice anything else. She just looked like the moon quietly until her eyes hurt. Then, she slowly lowered her head.A tear rolled down her cheeks, and she forcefully wiped it away, as if she wanted to get rid of the proof that she'd cried."Kirk, you bastard! To you, I was just …" Caroline hugged her knees, her body trembling even more. The leaves on the trees outside swayed in the night. And just like that, morning arrived.Carol

    Corinne was polite and cordial, and she didn't look hostile at all.Caroline calmed down. She was surely having such ridiculous thoughts because she hadn't rested well last night.She'd already asked the HR department to investigate Corinne the day before. And Corrine had to be in the clear for the head of the HR department to ask her to come to work."Hello, I'm Caroline Evans.""I already knew your name before I came here, Ms. Evans. What a coincidence. My name's Corrine, while yours is Caroline.""Yeah. I hope you'll enjoy working here. If you have any questions, you can call me any time." Caroline gave Corrine her private number. It would be easier for Corrine to contact her if she had her private number, after all.Corinne looked at the number in her hand and smiled slightly. "Do you have any other questions for me, Ms. Evans? If you don't, I'll be leaving.""Okay, go ahead."Corinne nodded, but when she walked out of Caroline's office and entered the elevator, her gaze tu

    Caroline glanced at the documents Corrine was carrying.Only then did Corrine realize that Caroline had asked her a question. She quickly explained, "No, today's just the handover, so I don't have much work. But since I've joined the Evans Group, I have to know more about the company. So, I asked the heads of the other departments for some documents like the reports from the previous quarters.""I see." Caroline looked away. "We don't encourage working overtime. Since you're done with your work, you should go home. As for the company's situation, you'll gradually understand it after working here for a while.""Okay." After Corrine said that, she kept looking at Caroline.Caroline felt strange being looked at like that. "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?""No, I just think you're a wonderful person, Ms. Evans.""Wonderful?""Yeah. When I came in for work, everyone spoke very highly of you when they mentioned you. Honestly, this is my first time seeing a boss like you

    "Here's the thing. I still haven't keyed in a bunch of medical records. Can you do it for me?"Caroline glanced at the huge stack of medical records and agreed without hesitation. "Okay.""I'm going to make the rounds," Jared said goodbye to Caroline before leaving the room with his card.As soon as Jared left, the room fell silent.Caroline looked at the pile of documents in resignation and began to help Jared key in the records. However, just as she was about to type the data in, the computer shut down.Caroline pressed the power button several times, but the computer wouldn't boot up. She then realized there wasn't a problem with the computer. It was a blackout.Caroline was speechless. A power outage in a hospital was a big deal, so there had to be a generator somewhere. She just needed to stay put and wait until the power was back.Meanwhile, at that moment, Jared was hiding in the corridor. When he saw that his office was silent, he and Charles looked at each other.

    As soon as Charles turned around, he saw Caroline holding a cup. "Ah, a ghost!" he shrieked.And as soon as he did, Kirk hurried over from the room next door. However, he froze at what he saw. Caroline was desperately trying to grab a ghost's hair. Wait, but there were no such things as ghosts. It was a woman, and the woman backed away in pain.Everything became a mess in an instant.At that moment, the dark corridor lit up, exposing the face of the ghost.When Caroline saw that Charles was the ghost, she was stunned, and Kirk was also confused."What are you doing here?" Caroline picked up Charles' wig in confusion. Then, she turned to look at Kirk and immediately understood what was going on."I get it now. You're pretending to be a ghost so that a certain someone can come to my rescue." After saying that, Caroline turned to look at Kirk. "Kirk Morrison, I never knew you had this much time in your hands!"After being scolded for no reason, Kirk held back his anger. "I do

    Charles looked at Kirk's disappointed expression. Even though Kirk didn't reprimand him, he felt more uncomfortable than if he did reprimand him.When Kirk disappeared around the corner, Charles turned around and questioned Jared, "Why didn't you speak up for Mr. Kirk?""You saw what happened just now. She wouldn't believe me if I told her this was my idea. On the contrary, she'd think I was on your side and wouldn't believe me anymore. "When she's out late again, and Mr. Kirk gets worried, there'd be no one else you can ask to contact her because he can't do it himself."Jared's reasonable argument convinced Charles."Then, what do we do now? Madam seemed furious, and Sir definitely wouldn't explain the situation to her. After all, she wouldn't believe him even if he did. I shouldn't have done this in the first place." Charles sighed.After a moment, Jared said, "Things have already happened, so there's no point dwelling on it. We'll take things as they come. Besides, can't y

    Caroline was silent.After her conversation with Dan ended abruptly, her attention was back on Kirk.And just like that, that night was another sleepless night for Caroline. She tossed and turned, but she still couldn't fall asleep.When she woke up the next day, she bumped into Charles at the door.Charles looked at her and wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything for some reason.A second later, Caroline knew the reason behind his silence—Kirk was behind him. And when he saw her, he walked away without even looking at her.Caroline felt annoyed. Kirk was clearly in the wrong, but he was acting as if she was. At the thought of this, Caroline became angry and stormed away. However, she walked in the opposite direction to Kirk.She still hadn't calmed down when she arrived at the company, so she was still a little angry when Gwen called her."What's wrong? Who was bold enough to piss you off, Carol?"Caroline barked, "Kirk, of course! Who else would it be?"Gwen

    Dan's text wrote, "We can meet, but I'll choose the time and place."Caroline remained silent. She wasn't in a hurry to reply to Dan. Besides, there was no way she would let Dan decide on the time and place for them to meet.After finishing her work in the afternoon, Caroline went to see Sonia at the time and place they'd agreed on.Sonia had picked a five-star hotel to dine in. It had excellent security, so she didn't need to worry about being photographed.When Caroline entered the room, Sonia warmly greeted and hugged her. "Long time no see, Caroline. I've missed you so much."Caroline felt a warmth in her chest and hugged Sonia back. "I've missed you too. How are things during filming?""It's fine. Everyone in the crew takes good care of me."Everyone knew Sonia had the Evans Group backing her up, so everyone else treated her respectfully. The only exception was the people in Morrison Corp, who still had the gall to mess with her.After all, everyone else vividly remembered

    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
