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.
"You fool." Kirk said fondly, "This information may be useless for most people, but it's very important for her.""Really?"Kirk kissed her lips. "Have I ever lied to you?"Caroline thought about it, and surprisingly, he hadn't.Seeing the trusting expression on her face, Kirk had mixed feelings. He didn't know whether to be happy or sad."All right. I'll buy you a cup of coffee," he said, letting go of Caroline.Only then did Caroline realize that many people were looking at them. She blushed, remembering how she had been crying in Kirk's arms just now. She wished she could dig a hole to hide in.Kirk quickly returned with two cups of coffee and sat down beside Caroline. "I'll take you back later, okay?""It's okay."Caroline pouted slightly and whispered while hiding beside Kirk, "You can never lie to me, got it?"Kirk's hands froze. After a while, he nodded slightly.Caroline looked up at Kirk with bright eyes. "What will you do if you lie to me?"Kirk took Caroline's ha
"But why would Uncle Kirk ask Brittany to help Caroline?" Eddy asked Jude in confusion.Jude was angry, but he didn't have conclusive evidence about whether Kirk and Caroline were married. So, he swallowed back his anger and said, "What do you think?"Eddy thought for a moment before saying hesitantly, "Because … Uncle Kirk likes Caroline?"Jude nodded, pleased at his answer. But Eddy's following words upset him even more."But that's normal. Caroline is especially fond of elders like you both. Don't you like her too, Grandpa?"Seeing that his grandson didn't understand, Jude simply stopped talking about it. "Call Brittany over, and I'll ask her myself."Brittany had just received a call from Charles, telling her to be cautious around Caroline from now on. Just as she'd recovered from her shock, she got a call from Eddy, saying Jude wanted to see her.Brittany stared at the phone, impressed. Caroline was really amazing.Brittany went to visit Jude.Jude got straight to the poi
