Kirk stood by the door. The light fell on his face, and the corners of his mouth curved upward in a smile. "Let's go," he told Caroline, who looked up to meet his gaze. She strode toward him and hooked an arm around his. "Okay."Kirk glanced sideways at her. "Why are you so happy?"Caroline tossed him a mysterious smile. "You'll know once we get our dinner." Then, she fist-pumped the air slightly in Gwen's direction as a sign of encouragement. Gwen pursed her lips at this. Later, the three of them went downstairs together. Sean was already waiting for them by the door. The place they were going to have dinner was just next door.Just when the four of them started heading out, Mia came rushing to them. "Sean, are you guys going to have dinner?" She asked. "Yes." "Can I tag along?" Pouting, she winked at him. Sean subconsciously glanced at Gwen, whose face paled briefly to see Mia here. Coincidentally, she locked eyes with Sean. In the blink of an eye, Mia had already
Mia cast a miserable gaze at Kirk once again. Kirk put his hands in his pockets, his eyes cold. He had no intention of speaking up for her.Seeing this, Mia stomped her foot angrily and stormed off.Caroline frowned as she watched Mia leave. Then, Caroline put the money back in her bag.Kirk stepped forward and put his arm around Caroline's waist. He said, "Let's get some food."Caroline looked at the elevator and asked uncertainly, "Shouldn't we go check up on them?"Kirk smiled. "What are you going to do?""But I'm worried about them …"Kirk forcefully led her to the restaurant next door. "They're already adults. They can handle things on their own."Caroline didn't respond.Even when they were at the restaurant for food, Caroline was still worried about them. So, she packed some food for them and went to the hostel. When she arrived downstairs, she saw an ambulance parked at the entrance.Caroline had a bad feeling and hurried out. She saw Sean carrying Gwen down the stair
Caroline frowned slightly. She couldn't believe this was the taste of the eloquent man who had spoken at the press conference more than a month ago.However, the entertainment website's sources were well-founded. Some people had even discovered that Daphne had been playing minor supporting roles before she married. But now, all of her parts were second or third leading roles. She could only have such connections because she'd married Eddy's second uncle and affiliated herself with the Morrisons."What are you looking at?" Kirk asked, quietly showing up beside her.Caroline looked up, almost thinking the man standing before her was Eddy's second uncle. Aside from their faces, Kirk and Eddy's second uncle looked really similar."Nothing important. Just some gossip." Caroline remembered that they had a fight because of Eddy's second uncle, so she didn't hand him the phone. Instead, she asked, "What did you buy?""Some oatmeal and pasta," Kirk said calmly, watching Caroline put
Caroline arrived at her apartment. She smelled a foul stench as soon as she stepped out of the elevator. The door to her apartment was covered in dung, and the walls were painted with the words "Caroline Evans, the disloyal daughter." The liquid from the broken eggs was flowing down the cracks in the bricks.The real estate manager was waiting for Caroline at the door. When he saw her, he covered his nose and walked over. "Ms. Evans, the police officer is in the office getting the surveillance footage."Caroline nodded slightly and opened the door. The inside of her apartment was clean. It looked exactly the same as it had before Layla had wrecked the place. Glancing outside the door again, Caroline felt as if she had traveled back in time to when Layla had trashed her house.The real estate manager said, "Let's go downstairs, Ms. Evans."Caroline looked away. Nodding slightly, she followed the real estate manager to the elevator. As the elevator doors opened, a white fig
Adrian seemed to realize that Caroline didn't recognize him. So, he changed the subject. "I'll ask my secretary to talk to you about the compensation. Do you have any other requests?"Caroline asked in surprise, "Does the real estate management need to give compensation?""Of course we have to compensate you. You suffered from property damage under our management."Caroline understood. It was no wonder the Sorkin family could thrive in property management. Their reach extended to all kinds of properties in Easton. They really served their clients well. The police officer had retrieved all the surveillance footage. He turned to Caroline in embarrassment. "Ms. Evans, since there are too many people involved, it will be difficult for us to arrest them one by one."Caroline glanced at the people indignantly demeaning her in the surveillance footage. She smiled lightly. "That doesn't matter. The most important thing is to arrest the person who attacked me."The police officer agree
Kirk didn't need Charles to finish speaking. He turned on his tablet, and a push notification about Sarah's accusation against Caroline appeared on the big screen.It was a video. It showed Sarah, who hadn't dressed up and looked haggard. She cried as soon as she started talking. "I know we shouldn't air our family's dirty laundry in public, but we really don't have a choice. Caroline has blocked us everywhere, so we can only communicate like this. I'm sorry for using the public's resources like this."Sarah wiped her tears away and looked straight at the camera. As if she were looking at Caroline, she put on a loving expression.She said, "Carrie, I know you're listening. You're already a married adult, so I don't want to keep pampering you. It would only do you more harm. You've never contributed to the family your entire life, but it's okay. As your mother, I should be supporting and providing for you."She paused briefly before continuing, "But how can you be so cruel to leav
"Ms. Dawson, why don't you go home and rest for the day?" The director smiled, glancing at the reporters outside, whom security guards had blocked off. They were all here to interview Daphne.Daphne glanced at the director. She felt ecstatic about having so many people's support, but she wasn't a fool. Kirk had already clarified that he could give her resources, but she couldn't expose their relationship.Now, their relationship had been exposed. But since she wasn't the one who had done it, she could stay out of this fiasco. However, if she left the set and said something wrong to those reporters, she would lose the benefactor she had worked so hard to get.Hence, Daphne refused. "Since I'm already on set, I'm working here. There's no need to give me special treatment. Let's keep filming."The director's forehead was covered in sweat. He dared not say anything else, so he could only tough it out and keep filming.Daphne had undergone plastic surgery, and her acting was medioc
"These are two completely different things, Caroline," Layla said with a smirk. "It's true that the Evans family is where they are today because of the Morrisons, but it has nothing to do with you not supporting your parents.""My parents know better than anyone why I chose not to support them," Caroline retorted, glaring at Layla. "Layla, don't think I don't know you're involved in this. You just got out of jail, yet you're trying to get yourself in there again."Layla's expression shifted from Caroline's words, but she still smiled gently. "Caroline, everyone here has a sense of who's right and wrong here. At any rate, Aunt Sarah and Uncle Dan won't release a video to clear things up."Caroline looked back and forth between them, and she immediately understood. She narrowed her eyes and said perceptively, "You asked them to post that video, didn't you?"Layla gritted her teeth and retorted, "Slandering someone is against the law."Caroline scoffed and looked at Sarah and
