"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

    Kirk pecked her lips. He lightly traced her lips with his tongue, tasting her sweet scent.Caroline felt even more nervous after seeing his leisurely expression.Kirk looked at her with a smirk. He crooned, "Be a good girl …" His voice was breathtaking and magnetic, seemingly pulling her into the depths of his heart.Caroline hugged his arms. She glanced at the moon with blurry eyes. She could see the moon from behind the treetops. It overlooked Caroline and the entire world.…At Pavilion, Daphne kept looking at the time on her watch. Kirk was over an hour late to their meetup.She slowly frowned. She took out her phone, hesitating to call her manager. She didn't have Kirk's number. According to the contract, only Kirk could make arrangements to meet her. She didn't have the right to contact him.It was at this moment that her phone rang. The call was from an unknown number.Daphne was overjoyed, and she quickly answered the phone. "Mr. Kirk, is that you?"On the other end

    "She's just inhumane, isn't she? I never knew she was a freeloader back home!""She abandoned her parents after getting married. Saying that she's lost her brain cells would be an understatement.""Is it really worth it for her to do all this for an ordinary office employee?"Caroline strode into the design department in her high heels. She heard tons of whispers about her. She walked through the office area calmly. Some people keenly noticed her walking by and hurriedly signaled their companions to quiet down. Soon, the office became dead silent.Caroline didn't say anything in response. There was no point in doing so. She might as well prove her innocence with cold, hard facts.When she pushed the door to her office open, she saw Vivian sitting inside. Caroline raised her eyebrows in surprise and asked, "What are you doing in my office?""Of course I'm here to see you, Caroline. You're trending on the internet. How are you planning to deal with it?""That is a personal ma

    However, getting this company to handle public relations was difficult because of its excellent reputation. Caroline didn't expect Kirk to be so well-connected. He had gotten someone from Star King PR to call her in person, and they were very polite. "Hello, is this Ms. Caroline Evans?""Yes.""When will you be free? We can meet up and discuss things with you in person."Caroline thought for a while before replying, "Is 1 pm okay?""Of course.""Okay, I'll see you then," Caroline said.After hanging up the phone, she immediately called Kirk. "Someone from Star King PR contacted me just now. You're really well-connected, aren't you?"Kirk replied merrily, "Remember to treat me to a big meal tonight." He emphasized the word "big."Caroline's cheeks burned. Why did she feel that Kirk was making a play at something? She was probably overthinking it. What was so dirty about a meal?"Got it." Caroline said, "I'll buy more food after work."Hearing his wife's innocent words, Kirk

    Caroline returned to the office after lunch.Many of her colleagues had just gotten back from lunch as well and were currently resting. As Caroline entered her office, everyone seemed to regain their energy and began talking about her."Hey, what do you think will happen in the end?""Who knows? But I think that Caroline will be in trouble. Her family has already accused her publicly. She has no way of marrying into the Morrison family now. Both the Evanses and the Morrisons won't help her. Her husband is just an ordinary man. He can't do anything to help her!""If you ask me, Caroline deserved this. She didn't want to be Mrs. Morrison. Instead, she chose to marry a poor taxi driver!""Didn't Viv mention something? It seems that Caroline did it to anger Mr. Eddy. I heard the person he likes is Caroline's cousin. He doesn't want to marry Caroline.""So, why is he still visiting Caroline? He even gave her a bunch of roses and a diamond ring!""Mr. Morrison Senior probably forced h

    Eddy suddenly changed his mind and added, "I also came to ask my ex-fiancée if she needed any help." He sounded very mysterious.Susan finally noticed Caroline. She said with a smile, "You've got a big heart, Mr. Eddy. She's already your ex, but you still care so much about her. However, Caroline is in huge trouble. Even her parents, the most selfless people in the world, have called her out. Her downfall is guaranteed!" Then, she added, "Caroline must be so overwhelmed right now, so your visit must be what she needed. She definitely needs your help!" Eddy smirked. "But she said she doesn't need it."Susan looked at Caroline like she was a fool. "Caroline, don't be so stubborn at a time like this. Although it's wrong not to support your parents, these issues can be discussed privately. Now that the issue has been publicized, your reputation will definitely be affected. If Mr. Eddy doesn't help you, you'll be doomed."She sounded like she was concerned for Caroline, but in fact

    Brittany noticed Eddy and raised her eyebrows in surprise. She said, "You're here too, Mr. Eddy.""Yes," Eddy answered half-heartedly. He looked back at Brittany and asked, "What are you doing here?" Although he already knew the answer, he didn't want to admit the truth.Brittany replied, "Ms. Evans hired me to handle her PR case."Susan was shocked by Brittany's words. She looked at Caroline in disbelief.Eddy had already guessed it, but he still had a mild scowl. "But as far as I know, you don't usually go out and handle cases yourself," he said, looking at Caroline."You … you didn't do this for my sake, did you? She's already my ex-fiancée. You don't have to—"Brittany was still polite to Eddy, but she couldn't resist interrupting him. "You're mistaken, Mr. Eddy. I'm here because Ms. Evans caught my eye."Eddy remained silent."If there's nothing else, may I ask both of you to leave? I would like to talk to Ms. Evans in private."Brittany's team escorted the baffled Ed

    Everyone in the industry said that Brittany would do even the most heavy-handed things to clear her client's name. However, Brittany knew Caroline as the woman who would obediently stick to Eddy like glue. She didn't expect her to become a completely different person in less than half a year. She liked the current Caroline very much.She asked, "So, what do I have to do?"Caroline explained, "When I went to see my real estate manager the other day, I was attacked by a mysterious man. The police are investigating it, so the man should be caught soon."She spoke lightheartedly, as if what she talked about didn't concern her. "You can start posting the evidence after the police arrest the attacker.""What if the police don't?" Brittany questioned.Caroline said calmly, "If the police still haven't caught anyone in three days, start going through with the plan."Brittany smiled sincerely. "It seems you had already figured out what to do before I came, Ms. Evans."Before coming her

    Kirk warned, "You'd better pray that is the case. If she figures something out, I'll leave you to fend for yourself in some tribe in the mountains."Speechless, Charles stared at Kirk."Hurry up and clear out the irrelevant people in the café downstairs," Kirk ordered.Charles slowly came to his senses and hurriedly said, "Yes, sir!"After Charles left, Kirk pulled off his tie, feeling restless. He looked up at the sky. Although he looked calm on the surface, his heart was already in chaos. He even thought about what to do if Caroline had figured out he was Eddy's second uncle. Kirk had to show his sincerity in any way he could.Ten minutes later, he went to the café downstairs. Charles had already swapped out all the staff in the café with his subordinates. Kirk found a table by the window and sat down. He tapped his fingers on the table as he waited. As time slowly passed by, every second was torture for him.Finally, he saw Caroline's car arrive by the side of the road.

    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
