At once, Sean looked over at Kirk.Kirk leaned in his seat casually, with one arm stretching out over Caroline's shoulder. The threat was clear in his smile."What are you looking at me for? Your wife's asking you.""What wife?" Gwen glared at Kirk. Then, she turned to look at Sean. "Is my question so tough to answer?""Alright." Sean glanced at Kirk, his expression pained. "Sorry, bro. For my wife, I have to throw you under the bus."Kirk only looked at Sean with a smile.Sean braced himself and said, "Actually, before meeting Carrie … Kirk, he … was a vir—"Caroline had been taking a sip of her drink. When she heard this, she couldn't help but spray the drink out in surprise. The droplets landed on Sean. Sean, an innocent who had suffered unjustly, glanced over at Caroline dejectedly.Caroline quickly pulled out some tissues and gave them to him. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I really didn't expect …" She glanced at Kirk as she spoke. "Were you … really?"Kirk's face was pa

Daphne was very pleased as she said, "Mr. Collins, please don't joke. Maybe his subordinates just never passed the message to him."Harold didn't continue pursuing this subject. "Mrs. Morrison, my wife bought some newly released bags recently. I'll have my staff send you some, alright?""How could I possibly accept your gift, Mr. Collins?""Oh, but this is a gift to thank you. If you don't accept it, I'll feel bad about getting to meet Mr. Morrison.""Well, since you've put it like that, I can only accept it."After some more chitchat, Daphne and Howard finally ended their call. Daphne couldn't help but whoop in joy. It was wonderful. Just wonderful. Good days were finally coming for her!…After dinner, Caroline and Kirk took the same car home. On the way back, she laid her head on his shoulder. She asked, "Do you feel like Gwen and Sean's relationship is getting better?"Kirk caressed Caroline's waist and said, "That's all you sensed?"Caroline looked up at him nervously

Jack had been through a lot of life-or-death situations. But when he heard this, he was so scared that he started sweating bullets. "Sir, what have I done wrong?"Kirk leaned back in his seat. "You haven't done anything wrong. But after tonight, Howard Collins won't have people tailing Caroline anymore. So you can also go back to your usual post."Jack finally relaxed. "Yes, sir.""Your performance during this time has been good. Once you get back, I'll reward you generously for it. But remember, you must keep quiet about everything that happened during this time.""Thank you, sir," Jack replied. "Don't worry. I won't say anything."After that, Kirk stepped out of the car. By the time he got inside the villa, Caroline had already turned on her computer."It's already so late. Why aren't you going to sleep? What are you looking at?" Kirk sat on the armrest of the chair Caroline was in. He massaged her neck gently, looking at the screen.Caroline didn't even look up. However, sh

Time passed by slowly. As it did, Howard became so nervous that he started sweating.After a long time, Kirk said unhurriedly, "I heard you've had someone following Caroline Evans?"Howard's expression shifted when the topic suddenly turned to Caroline. He didn't know what Kirk meant by this.Kirk looked up at Howard. "Don't dare to admit to it?""It's not that." Howard felt pained. "I'm only having Caroline followed because my daughter's condition has something to do with her husband."Kirk tapped the ashtray against the table, creating a crisp noise. "I'm not here to listen to your sob story. My uncle is exceedingly fond of Caroline. If you're looking to give her trouble, you should be more careful."Howard's face turned white. Kirk was making himself very plain now—Caroline was someone Kirk was protecting."Yes, I … I won't dare to do such a thing again.""If you'd like to partner with me and make money, that can be forgiven. However, you must remember not to offend th

Sean became anxious. "Don't. Let me go instead. It's so late at night, it's not safe for a woman to go out alone.""But staying home …" Before Caroline could finish speaking, she heard the sound of a car downstairs. She hurriedly stuck her head out the balcony to see that it was Kirk's car. With that, her heart finally dislodged from her throat. "Kirk's home. I'm going downstairs now."When he heard this, Sean sighed on the other end of the line.The second Caroline went downstairs and saw Kirk coming in, she threw herself into his embrace. "Where did you go?"Kirk was stunned by the sudden impact. Then, he tightened his arms around Caroline's waist. Laughing, he said, "I had to deal with something at the company. What is it? Did you have a bad dream?"Caroline's eyes stung as she sniffed. "Why didn't you leave me a message?"Kirk's heart softened, his tone becoming gentler. "Did I scare you?""You didn't answer when I called, and you didn't leave a message. Of course I was

Cheryl entered the office slowly and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Caroline, I was at the lounge just now, and I heard Susan say that your design that won the prize was the same as Vivian's!" Caroline paused what she was doing and asked, "Did she really say that?" "Yes." Cheryl couldn't believe it either. "It can't be true, right?" "What she said is indeed true," said Caroline, crossing her arms. "What else did she say?"Astonished, all Cheryl could say was, "Why are you …" Caroline merely smiled at the speechless woman before her. Just as she opened her mouth to speak, Susan barged into the room, huffing and puffing like a volcano that was about to erupt. She pointed at Caroline and yelled, "Caroline, you're so shameless! How could you take Viv's design for yourself to join the design contest? This is plagiarism! You're trying to take away what's supposed to be hers!" Behind her, the hypocrite, Vivian, stepped in to say, "Susan, that's enough. Maybe it's just
Bogus Billionaire Chapter 248
The onlookers around them locked their eyes on Susan and Vivian's pale faces. There was something in their eyes that unsettled the two women. "How could this be? Did Vivian purposely send her design using Caroline's email just to accuse her of plagiarism?" Someone pondered aloud. Another person clicked her tongue and said, "This is creepy. It gives me goosebumps." Someone else asked, "Was it truly necessary? Didn't Vivian claim that Caroline was totally inexperienced back then? Why is she using foul play?" Vivian heard what her subordinates said. Their words were like blades cutting at her back. She clenched her fists, her fingernails digging into her palms. "I really don't know what happened. I only came to your office to place some documents," she said, unwilling to give in to the pressure. "If you don't believe me, you can check the surveillance footage again. I'm sure of it." A small smile appeared on Caroline's face, and she stared at Susan. "If it isn't Vivian, it s

Dismissal was the worst thing that could happen in one's career. Getting sent to jail meant that she would never get a chance at another job in the future. Vivan crouched and helped Susan up, with sympathy written all over her face. Yet her eyes had a sharp and sinister gleam to them."When you're in there, remember that there are things that you should and shouldn't say," she whispered. Then, Vivian raised her voice and said, "Susan, you've been by my side for so many years. How could you do this?" Sighing, she added, "Follow the rules when you're in there. When you've turned a new leaf and are released in the future, I'll surely give you a new job so that you can start anew." By saying this, Vivian emphasized her position as a superior who was kind and gracious. The police officers came soon after and took Susan away with them. Peace was finally restored in the office. No one dared to stay and watch any longer, and all of them went back to their spots to continue their wor

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
