The assistant was nervous as he asked, "Sir, what does Caroline Evans mean by this?"Liam's eyebrows furrowed. He didn't know either. He had never interacted much with Caroline before.He only knew that she was a brainless sort of woman. Jude Morrison had always been supportive of her becoming Eddy's wife, but she had given up on that opportunity.After some thought, Liam made a call to Layla and waved his assistant off.The assistant quickly went outside.Layla answered just as the door closed. "Your guess was right, Ms. Evans. Caroline Evans indeed came to see me."Layla was currently playing cards. When she heard this, she smiled in satisfaction. "I see. What did she say?""She said she would acquire my company within half a year and pay more than the market price."Layla burst into laughter, causing her friends to look up and ask, "What, are you going to win?"Layla snickered. "No, I just heard a very funny joke." As she said this, she got someone to take her place in th

Jules was stunned. "You want to recommend Vivian?""No." Caroline shook her head. "When it comes to work, Vivian is flawless. But she's just too envious of others. If you can't find anyone in a pinch, you can have her take the position for the time being. But my suggestion is that you should find the right candidate as soon as possible to fill such an important post."Jules smiled a little. "Honestly, I was still worried that you wouldn't be able to handle the position of Evans Group's CEO. But after hearing you say that, I think Evans Group will only grow bigger and better in your hands."Caroline looked at problems with an unbiased eye. She didn't consider her own likes or dislikes. She could even be so fair toward Vivian, who had caused her problem after problem. It was a rare thing.Caroline answered, "Thank you for your praise, Mr. Hawkins. I'll go back to my office now.""Alright."When she got back to her office, Caroline saw Cheryl's eyes red from crying. "What is i

Once Caroline settled matters regarding Evans Group, she had much more free time for a few days. Just as she had nothing to do, she received a call from Gwen."Carol, I have tomorrow off. Do you want to go and pick out a wedding gown together tomorrow?"When it came to buying a wedding gown, Gwen was even more excited than Caroline was. Caroline smiled. "Sure.""Didn't you want to have your pictures taken in Macovo? I heard it snows there all year. Do you want to take ski equipment there too?"Caroline wasn't sure about it. "I don't think we have that much time there."Hearing this, Gwen said, "That's true. But I would really love to go with you to take your photos."Caroline teased, "You really want to go?""Yes.""Then why don't you quickly make Sean official?"Gwen scoffed. "I'm not talking to you anymore. I've noticed you're biased toward him."Caroline smiled. After she hung up, she finished work and went home.Kirk had come home early today, and he had cooked. When

The next day, after Caroline and Gwen met up, they went straight to Merry Color. As for Sean and Kirk, they had both been dumped at home. In Sean's words, they had become latchkey kids.Soon, Caroline and Gwen arrived at Merry Color.When she saw Caroline, the new store manager quickly went forward. "You must be Mrs. Yates. Mr. Eddy said that you can choose any dress in the shop as long as you like it."Caroline and Gwen exchanged a glance and chuckled at the same time. The manager didn't know why they were laughing. She led them both to pick out wedding gowns.Then, she moved away for a moment. Gwen went up to Caroline and said with a chuckle, "I wonder how Eddy would react if he found out you were the Mrs. Yates he was talking about."Caroline smiled for a moment before frowning. "Gwen, stop getting Sean to pretend to be my husband next time.""What are you afraid of?" Gwen knew what Caroline was worried about. "Our relationship isn't that fragile. Besides, I trust you 100%

Caroline said, "Yes.""My god, I really can't believe it. Carol, you're amazing."Caroline was a bit annoyed as she said, "I'm not 100% sure, though. Don't praise me just yet.""No, but you're already amazing for daring to take over a company. Some people don't dare become bosses like this. Me, for example. I wouldn't dare do such a thing. Just thinking about all the issues a company faces gives me a headache!"Caroline replied, "Managing a company really is quite difficult. Besides, I don't have much experience with it. But I don't want my grandfather's company to be ruined just like that."Although Caroline didn't much remember Benjamin Evans, they were still family."You're right about that." When it came to the Evans family, Gwen found it kind of sad. She had been young back then, but she could still remember a bit about what had happened. Whenever the adults had spoken about the Evans family back then, they had been reverential and fearful. Now, they were mocking.The d

Quentin's hair was messy and frizzy, and he had dark, heavy eyebags. It looked like he hadn't slept in many days.Adrian tugged at him. It was then that Quentin noticed Caroline. But his expression was frozen, and he couldn't even smile at her."No, I can't anymore. I'm exhausted. I need to sleep first." With that, Quentin slumped to the ground.Neither Gwen nor Caroline had ever seen him like this before. Curiously, they asked, "What happened to him?"Adrian gave the passed-out Quentin a kick. Then, he called some of the employees to move Quentin to the third floor. After that, he answered, "He's been investigating something. He hasn't stopped for three days and hasn't slept in all that time. Now he needs to catch up on sleep. You …"Adrian shot a glance at Caroline's shopping cart. "Do you still have any more books to buy?"Gwen quickly answered, "There's one more: 'The Essence of Management.'" Since he was familiar with the layout, Adrian led them to the C section and pu

Time passed quickly. It was getting closer to the day when Evans Group's new CEO would be chosen. Yet Caroline only became more calm as the days went by. Even so, she completed her work for Thorne Corp very well. However, the HR department still hadn't found a suitable new design director. Thus, Jules had yet to approve Caroline's resignation. Actually, there was another reason Jules didn't do it. He just didn't have the guts to say it.During this time, Layla had also been attending various events with Eddy. Anyone with sharp eyes could tell that Eddy was in support of Layla. There was even word that many people were waiting to invest in Evans Group once Layla took over.Once the shareholders found out about this, they would surely be on Layla's side. That was why Jules didn't think Caroline could become Evans Group's CEO. He was worried since Eddy was so invested in Layla now.Jules' direct superior was Eddy's second uncle. He was afraid his boss would side with Layla too

Layla was in high spirits now, so she didn't blame Vivian for it. "It's fine. I'll get to see her expression tomorrow." Vivian instantly got what she meant and went with the flow. "I shall congratulate you first, then, Ms. Layla."Layla was quite pleased to hear that and said, "Don't worry. Your work won't be forgotten.""Um …" Vivian started but paused for a moment. "I actually wanted to talk to you about something." "What is it?" Layla asked. "It's confirmed that the company will make me their design director," Vivian told her, deliberately omitting the detail that the position was temporary. "Okay. What do you want, then?" asked Layla. "You're smart." Vivian smiled. "Since Evans Group focuses primarily on the clothing industry, you'll surely need someone to help with the designs. I was thinking that perhaps …"She didn't need to say more, for Layla knew exactly what she wanted and said, "That is not a problem." She smiled, enjoying how she could flaunt her positio
