Caroline approached Avery and placed a hand on her shoulder. As she pretended to pull Avery up, she whispered in her ear, "Of course. I'm very happy …"

Avery looked up at Caroline just in time to see the smirk on her face. Avert glared at her in hatred, wishing she could strangle her to death.

Caroline was doing this on purpose! She was acting sensible in front of Kirk and wanted Lia to apologize!

Caroline ignored Avery's murderous look and said, "You don't need to do this, Ms. Mendeley. I'm just rambling."

Lia came back to her senses and pushed Caroline away. She helped her daughter up and said, "You fool. Why are you getting on your knees for her? Ivan …"

Avery was worried that Caroline would pull another trick, so she hurriedly left, dragging Lia with her.

Ivan watched them leave quickly, not bothering to ask Avery why she had gotten on her knees.

He said, "Sorry for misunderstanding you, Caroline."

Caroline turned back and said kindly, "Don't say that, Dad. Everything is

    After the incident with the concept drafts, Avery hadn't shown up again for a long time. Caroline and Kirk could finally travel peacefully and have a nice vacation.Seeing the date of their return getting closer, Caroline started to prepare some gifts. She gave Gwen a call. "Hey, Gwen. I'm going home soon. What do you want me to buy?"They were good friends, so giving gifts was easy. They simply gave each other what they needed most."I heard that a company over there has recently developed a new phone called Dragon. It's specially made for games. But they won't launch it in Easton until they get marketing feedback from Celona. Can you help me bring one back here?" Gwen liked playing games, so she couldn't resist getting a phone specially designed for it."Sure. Hang on, let me take a look …" Caroline searched online and soon found the description of this phone. Her heart stopped when she saw that it was manufactured by SY Group.SY Group was the largest company in Sarcozia. I

    Bryan seemed a little foolish. Yet, since Avery had also acted like an innocent fool, Caroline couldn't let down her guard. But she still politely invited him into her home.After Bryan entered the apartment, he didn't really know what to do."It's okay. Sit wherever you want," Caroline assured."This place is so cozy. I can't believe Kirk is actually married."Caroline smiled, handing him a glass of water. "Why? Does he look like a bachelor?""No, Kirk has been a workaholic ever since he was in school. Nothing could get his attention other than work," Bryan said.Caroline asked, "He started working during school?"Bryan realized that he had said something wrong. He looked down with a blush and said, "Uh … Well, Kirk did a little … business when he was in school."What he really meant was that Kirk started managing a company at the age of 12 and made the company famous within a year.Many people didn't know that the SY Group had suddenly emerged as the largest company in Sarco

    Bryan agreed without hesitation. They decided to go to the press conference together on the 19th.After seeing Bryan off, Caroline realized something. Not only could she get a phone for Gwen, but she could also meet Eddy's second uncle. Humming, Caroline walked into the kitchen and started preparing dinner. She didn't know what Kirk was up to these days. He would always leave in the afternoon and come home for dinner. But she'd never checked up on him since she trusted him completely.Kirk opened the door and walked in, just in time to see Caroline busy in the kitchen. His heart swelled in an instant, and he went to hug her from behind.Startled, Caroline turned around and saw Kirk. She said in surprise, "Why were you so quiet?""What are you making?" Kirk lifted the lid of the pot, and the aroma of food wafted out."Tomato salsa." Caroline pushed Kirk away. "Get out of here. Don't mess up things here.'"Kirk stood at the door, motionless. He said cheekily, "I'll leave if you

    When the press conference started, everyone was asked to turn off their phones. No one was allowed to take pictures.As Caroline turned her phone off, Bryan returned. He looked a lot better, but he was still nervous. "Are you really okay?" She took a bottle of painkillers from her bag and asked, "Do you want some medicine?"Bryan smiled bitterly and waved his hand. "I'm fine."Fortunately, the project manager for Dragon went on stage then, diverting Caroline's attention. Bryan finally had a chance to breathe. He wondered if Avery had warned Kirk yet.He was so uneasy that he didn't even listen to all the concepts that usually interested him.Meanwhile, Charles walked backstage and ordered, "The president is coming soon. You have to handle the security work properly. Got it?"Everyone backstage stopped what they were doing and nodded in unison. These people were all Charles' experienced subordinates. Charles had no doubts about their abilities.Charles walked away, then turned

    Caroline knocked on the door before opening it. The people who were busying themselves behind the counter all looked at her in unison.Caroline mustered her courage and asked, "May I know where the president of SY Group is?"The people exchanged looks with each other.After a moment, one of the employees came up to Caroline. "May I ask if you're Ms. Caroline Evans?"Caroline asked, "You know who I am?" She didn't recognize the person before her at all."The president asked me to pass this to you." The employee took out three exquisitely decorated phone boxes and gave them to Caroline. "He also congratulated you on your new marriage.""He knows what I look like?" Caroline was surprised at getting such attention.The employee didn't know what Caroline meant by this and only gave her a small smile.Her heart pounding wildly, Caroline accepted the gift bagIn the car, Kirk was watching the surveillance footage. At some point, a dark look passed over his eyes.Even Charles could s

    Gwen sobbed. "Carol, I love you to death! When are you getting back? I'm going to treat you to a huge meal.""Soon. I'll be going home in a few days.""Doesn't that mean I'll get the phone very soon? Wow, I'll be the third person in the country to get a Dragon. Just thinking about it is exciting. When the time comes, I'll take my phone out every day at work. They'll all be jealous to bits when they see it!"Caroline smiled as she put Gwen's phone back in its box."Carol, did you get gifts for your new colleagues?"Caroline was just about to answer when Kirk opened the door and came in.Caroline greeted Kirk and continued chatting with Gwen. "I haven't decided yet. I asked about it yesterday and found out that most of the staff at the design department are women. I think I should probably buy makeup?"Kirk looked at Caroline, who was so invested in chatting with Gwen. It only annoyed him more.He walked to the coffee table and purposely made some noise.But Caroline didn't ev

    Caroline waited in her room for a long time, but Kirk didn't come and try to explain himself. She felt wronged and pressed her lips together. She badly wanted to beat Kirk up.Right then, she received a message."Hello, Ms. Evans. This is the phone department of SY Group. We have a giveaway for a lucky attendee of the press conference. To thank you for your support of Dragon, we will gift you 50 Dragon phones."Caroline was speechless.There were a total of 42 members in the design department.Since SY Group had given her 50 phones in one go, she could definitely give the phones to her subordinates. Caroline wanted to thank Eddy's second uncle. But then she thought of what Kirk had said, and her excitement died down instantly.Forget it.It was better to buy him a meal when she had the chance to.She had to take Kirk along too. She would let him know that she didn't have any intentions regarding Eddy's second uncle!Besides, she'd already said that she didn't want to be invo

    After he said that, Kirk went up to the second floor.Lia couldn't help but smile when she saw Kirk go into Avery's room. She turned to Adam. "Look, wasn't I right? Kirk is interested in Avery. He just never realized it before."Adam folded his newspaper. "It's a shame that Kirk is already married. Anyone would want a great son-in-law like him."Lia pouted. "So what if he's married? Divorce rates are so high. Lots of people get married and then divorce. Besides, that woman isn't worthy of Kirk. She has no background and no education. All she has is her face. But what use is that? Kirk will get bored of it soon."As a man, Adam could agree with that. "If you say that, then our Avery has a chance."However, the atmosphere between Kirk and Avery on the second floor could be considered anything but friendly. It was tense, even. "You were looking for me?" Avery was a little mad.Kirk sat at the computer table and crossed his legs. He looked at Avery blandly. "Do you admit it?""Wha

    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
