Bogus Billionaire Chapter 1
Caroline Evans was getting married.Not to her fiancé, Eddy Morrison, whom she had loved for eight years. Instead, she was marrying a man she'd only met for all of five minutes and knew very little about."You can still back out." The man looked at Caroline cynically in the waiting room of City Hall.Caroline toyed nervously with the already creased hem of her shirt, Eddy's cold expression flashing through her mind. Three days ago, Eddy, who usually avoided her like the plague, invited her over for dinner. When she received his call, she naively thought that her eight years of effort was finally paying off.She had dolled herself up and showed up eagerly. However, there were others besides Eddy waiting for her. Sitting in a wheelchair with her fingers laced with Eddy's was a glowing, radiant Layla Evans, who was none other than her cousin.Before Caroline could take in their relationship, Eddy dropped a bomb on her."If you donate your kidney to Layla, I'll marry you."Caroline

"Is something wrong?" Kirk looked at her.Caroline's red lips parted. She was unsure how to explain but was afraid he would overthink things. "No. Let's go."It had to be done sooner or later.On the way over, she received a call from Eddy.Upon seeing the flashing screen, Caroline's expression froze. She was reminded of how she'd behaved in the past eight years—she used to be the one who called Eddy, asking about his day. But Eddy had never called her.She wouldn't have received an ounce of concern even if she were in the hospital undergoing surgery. But now, Eddy was calling Caroline for Layla's sake. There was no way Caroline could compare to Layla."Aren't you going to take that?" Kirk looked out of the window. He had been resting his eyes.Caroline looked at his perfect face. Although she couldn't see his expression, she felt like he was annoyed.She hesitated for a moment before finally picking up.Before she could even speak, Eddy's angry voice came from the speaker. "Caroline!

Caroline's heart thumped in her chest. It felt like a lifebuoy had been thrown to her in the open sea.She looked up and met Kirk's gaze. The amusement in his eyes had vanished, replaced by deep emotion. For a second, even Caroline believed it.She quickly looked at Dan and Sarah White, her mother.They were so shocked that they both collapsed onto the couch. After a beat, Dan reacted first. He looked at Caroline and asked, "Carrie, what is this?"Before she could speak, Kirk shielded her behind him. Her mind went blank at the feeling of protection he gave her. He said in that husky voice of his, "We just registered our marriage today. It was so rushed that we didn't get the chance to inform you."Dan was furious, but he kept his composure. "Carrie!"Caroline gritted her teeth and said, "What he's saying is true. I married him because I didn't want to marry—"Before she could finish her sentence, Sarah rushed toward her and squeezed her shoulders. "What happened, Carrie? Didn'

Kirk shoved her into the passenger seat with a steely face. He then got into the driver’s seat and shut the door.Caroline was so startled that she jumped a little. She snuck a glance at Kirk’s unpleasant expression, perplexed. She was the one who should be angry. Why did he look more enraged than she was?At once, Kirk started the car and sped into the distance.Caroline nearly flew out of her seat. She grabbed the handhold tightly, her voice sounding distorted in the wind. “What are you doing?”It was as if Kirk hadn’t heard anything. He stepped on the gas, staring straight ahead as if he were a beast in the night.At once, the Audi A6 sped through the streets like a rushing river.Caroline turned pale. She could barely hold on. The wind swept her questions away, her voice drowned in the breeze.Finally, Caroline stopped struggling and let the wind tousle her hair. Kirk was like a madman, driving her toward the unknown.Three days ago, she’d thought about dying. But suicide w

Caroline was amused by Gwen's outburst. "You've read too many romance novels. I just picked him off the street. He has nothing to do with the Morrisons. The only thing they have in common is that he works in one of their companies.""Oh." Gwen was disappointed. "So he's Eddy's employee. Doesn't that mean that Eddy can bully you whenever he wants?"Caroline's eyes darkened. "He … probably wouldn't because of Old Mr. Morrison. Besides, I'm already married. Eddy probably won't come and bother me anymore."Gwen relaxed a little, but when she thought of Eddy's harassment, she felt angry on her friend's behalf. "If it were up to me, I'd have beaten up that man. Does he not know how much you wanted to marry him?"Caroline said, "It's already in the past, Gwen. In the future, Eddy and I will be our own people. We will not interfere with each other.""So your marriage …" Gwen hesitated. "It hasn't been made known to Old Mr. Morrison yet, has it? If he comes to know about it, he'll be sad."

Half an hour later, Caroline was in the car that Jude had prepared and headed toward Starlust Hotel. Only after she had arrived did she learn from the butler that it was a party."Is Eddy here, too?" Caroline asked. She absolutely did not want to see him.The butler, however, misunderstood. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, Ms. Evans. He'll be here soon."Caroline was speechless. Would she be able to leave in time?But then, the door opened. Caroline had nowhere to go. Thus, she greeted, "Grandpa.""Oh!" Jude smiled when he saw Caroline. "Come, Carrie. Sit here with me."She sat next to him. Just then, she realized that everyone had yet to begin eating. They were probably waiting for someone important to arrive.As if reading her mind, Jude said with a chuckle, "We're here to celebrate Eddy's uncle's return to the country."Although Kirk had asked to keep this a secret, Jude had faith in Caroline. He believed that she would not be loose-lipped.Caroline was dazed for a moment

Eddy and Caroline both walked out of the hall. The second they were out the door, Eddy grabbed her by her neck. "Don't think that you're invincible just because my grandfather favors you!"Caroline could hardly breathe, but the smile on her face remained. She choked. "Well, you should stop thinking about using my kidney the price for marriage and clear things up with Grandpa soon. Otherwise, there's no telling what else I'll say."Eddy trembled violently. The Caroline before him seemed to have changed. She was no longer obedient like a lamb.He tightened his grip and warned, "Don't you dare think of playing any games. I will never call the marriage off. You will give your kidney to Layla!"Then, he turned and left.Caroline watched as he left, suddenly unable to understand how she had fallen for him eight years ago. However, she did not dwell upon it. She turned, about to ask an employee about what happened to Eddy's uncle, when she caught sight of Kirk not far away.She couldn't

It was then that everyone reacted. They pushed Caroline over frantically and wiped the porridge off Layla. But even so, her scalp was burning. Her tears fell in large drops on the ground.The nurse barked, “Who are you? Do you know who you’ve angered?”Caroline replied coldly, “I’m Eddy’s fiancée.”Everyone was stunned. They began looking at Layla with different eyes.Layla panicked before she began explaining anxiously, “Your engagement was just a formality. There was no relationship at all. What Eddy and I have is true love. Could you give him back to me?”Everyone looked at Caroline in disdain.Caroline scoffed. What a bitch her cousin was.She crossed her arms and said calmly, “Since your relationship is so pure, why hasn’t Eddy nullified our engagement in front of Grandpa? Could he be lying to you?”Layla’s face was distorted. Many people were around, and she had to maintain her composure. She bit her lip. “I know you’re upset because you have to donate your kidney to save

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
