Caroline was called to the conference room the moment she arrived at the company.Everyone in the conference wore a stern expression. But when they saw Caroline, their eyes focused on her intently for a few seconds.Especially Vivian's.There was a look of unbridled mockery in her eyes.Jules said to Caroline regretfully, "Ms. Evans, I'm very sorry. Mr. French's assistant called this morning and said he has agreed to our partnership."Caroline gave a slight smile. "But this is a good thing.""But …" Jules didn't dare meet Caroline's eyes. "Mr. French has decided to use Vivian's design."Caroline's smile froze for a second but then grew bigger. "Does Mr. French not want to look at my design?""That … seems to be the case."Caroline still maintained her smile. "I think it's better if he takes a look anyway.""You think?" Vivian laughed mockingly. "Mr. French's time is precious. What makes you think he will waste his time on you?"Caroline looked at Vivian calmly. "His stub

But now …Vivian's face lost all its color for a second before going back to normal."Mr. French, shouldn't we sign the contract first?" Vivian went forward and reminded him quietly.Corvin said, "Yes, yes. We should sign the contract. It's all my fault for forgetting everything upon seeing Ms. Evans."As he spoke, he turned toward one of the seats. But Caroline called out to stop him. "Mr. French, can I please make a request?"Corvin answered, "Of course you can.""You've only seen Ms. Patterson's design, not mine. May I please take up a little of your time and have you look at my design?"Corvin hesitated. "But … I'm very happy with Vivian's design. Is it necessary to look at another one?"When Vivian heard this, she smiled in delight."Did you hear that? 'Is it necessary to look at another one?' I've been a designer for ten years, after all, Caroline. Compared to me, aren't you just embarrassing yourself and asking to be mocked?"When it came to this, many people support

Vivian's expression changed slightly. "Caroline, you've lost. Are you going to badmouth my work just because of that? Your character is just as bad as your designs. Now I know why you only managed to marry a driver!"Corvin raised an eyebrow when he heard this.He'd thought that there was something between Caroline and Kirk. But it turned out that Caroline was already married.He was just about to speak when Caroline spoke softly."Mr. French, I admit that you are a renowned and respected name in the skincare industry. When we talked about artistry a few days ago, I thought you disagreed that artistry also needed to serve business purposes. That's why your products are so good, but not all consumers agree."Caroline was going overboard by saying such things to such a renowned expert in the field.Everyone turned pale from fright. They were scared that Corvin would change his mind and refuse to sign the contract with Thorne Corporation.Even Jules thought Caroline was being too b

"My goodness, I'm getting goosebumps!""Help, this is too amazing! No one could do this without ten years of honing one's skills!""Go and see if an artist with ten years of experience can do something like this. Goodness, this isn't just some simple design with commercial value. It's a masterwork with artistic and commercial value!"Compared to Caroline's design, Vivian's twelve-flower design became plain and uninteresting.Corvin pulled his admiring gaze away from Caroline's design. "I've decided to use Ms. Evans' design!"Once he said this, Vivian's expression twisted in anger.She bit her lip hard. Just when she was about to speak, Corvin cut her off."Vivian's design is great too, but compared with Ms. Evans' … Hmm, how should I put it? They're as different as heaven and earth. Vivian, you need to learn more from Ms. Evans."His last comment made Vivian want to scream.Why should she, someone with ten years of experience, learn from a newbie?Everyone in the room wore di

When Caroline returned to the design department, she could feel that the atmosphere was different from before.The way the others looked at her had changed. Their expressions were no longer filled with mockery and disdain. They were full of fear.Caroline knew what they were thinking. She regarded each of them. "The design department allows constructive competition and also questioning. But it doesn't allow slander. As long as you do your jobs, no one will make life difficult for you."Her words brought relief to those who had stood behind Vivian before.After saying this, Caroline went to her office.Cheryl followed Caroline into the office. Open admiration filled her face."Ms. Evans, you're amazing. I admire you so much! How did you draw those eyes? Can you teach me?"Caroline smiled and took out her phone. It was filled with notifications. People from other departments were adding her on social media.She accepted every one of them.The second she put down her phone,

Kirk answered the phone very quickly. He sounded like he was in a good mood. "Darling, is something the matter?"When Caroline heard Kirk's low and magnetic voice through the phone, goosebumps rose on the skin of her arm.She settled her emotions and said, "I'll be attending a welcome party at the company tonight. Do you want to come?"Kirk smiled devilishly. "This is your company's welcome party. How can I attend when I'm an outsider?"Caroline was dumbstruck.Why did she feel like Kirk was doing this on purpose?"Of course because …"Kirk stretched out his legs. He gave a slightly playful look to his astounded underlings. Then, he turned around, lightly cajoling. "Because?""You're my family! Is that good enough for you?"Caroline had no more words to say to him.Kirk's voice became lower. It was deep and smooth. "You're finally acknowledging me.""Are you coming or not?" Caroline's face was starting to burn.Kirk sighed. "Of course I want to attend. It's such a great

Sarah looked like she had suffered a blow. She slapped Caroline in the face. "I'm your mother! Since when did you become so disobedient?"The slap rang clear and loud. However, the sound was lost in the bustling crowd.Caroline's head turned from the force of the slap. She gritted her teeth and looked back after a moment. Her gaze was frosty as she glared at Sarah.Sarah felt cold all over. She looked at Caroline in fear.Sarah was acting as though she had been slapped.The way Caroline looked at her now made her feel like she was looking at a stranger."You're my mother. But let me ask you something. Do you still remember my birthday?"Sarah shuddered violently. After a pause, she said hesitantly, "O—of course I do."Caroline could tell at a glance that Sarah was lying.She recalled her birthdays from the past. Even though they had been in different countries, Sarah and Dan would still fly abroad to celebrate her birthday with her.But because she didn't marry Eddy, her pare

However, she carried herself differently from typical women who had some slight fame. She had the air of someone well-educated."She's …" Jude asked inquisitively, his posture going tense."Hello, Uncle Jude!" There was surprise in the woman's eyes. "I'm Kirk's wife. I finally get to meet you! It's such an honor!"After that, she spotted Eddy. Her surprise became even more obvious. "Mr. Eddy is here too!"Eddy frowned slightly and looked at Kirk in confusion. This woman was completely different from what he'd expected. She wasn't proper or elegant at all.Jude didn't like this woman at all, but he felt relieved because of it.As long as it wasn't Caroline."Have a seat."The woman sat down and introduced herself in an overly friendly manner. "My name is Daphne Dawson. Uncle, you and Mr. Eddy can me Daph."Kirk shot her a look.Daphne seemed to have been stuck by lightning. She put her hands together atop the table and didn't dare to say more.Eddy and Jude didn't notice
