Bogus Billionaire Chapter 320
But even so, it set off a wave of protests. The head of PR who had just been fired was Colleen Whitman, Emery's mother.Caroline wasn't targeting Emery on purpose. She had done her investigations and found that Evans Group's PR department was irrelevant. To put it bluntly, it was set up to support idlers. Since they were supporting idlers, she had to fire the head of that department, no matter who it was.However, Colleen obviously didn't think so. When she heard that she and her daughter were fired, she immediately cried, "My God, are you trying to kill me and my daughter? How dare you pick her as CEO? How can she be the boss of this company? She's trying to murder us!" Her voice was very loud, and her wailing seemed to pierce through the walls.Caroline didn't pay attention to her whiny and sulky behavior at all. "According to the procedures, you must complete your resignation, and the company will pay you three times your salary. If you want to cause trouble, we'll termin

Jeb's heart sank. Still, now that Caroline had forced his hand, he didn't want to admit defeat. He turned around and said to everyone, "Those who want to leave with me, stand up right now!"Seeing this, Emery was the first to stand up with Colleen. After they did, they didn't forget to encourage everyone else. "Don't be afraid, everyone. Layla has started a new company upstairs. After leaving here, we can just join hers."Many people knew about the fact that a new company had opened upstairs. When they heard that the company belonged to Layla, everyone was moved. They all walked behind Emery and Colleen. Soon enough, more than 100 people were on Emery's side, while Caroline only had 90 people left. They were still hesitating about whether they should leave or not.Emery continued, "Come on. I promise you'll definitely get to join the company upstairs. Don't forget—Layla started this company, so Mr. Eddy must have sponsored her."When she mentioned Eddy, another half went over

Caroline's last words pissed Emery off. She had definitely said that on purpose to direct everyone's ire at her.Sure enough, everyone who was excited at first calmed down and slowly looked at Emery one by one. One of them asked, "Emery, can we really join Layla's company?"Emery couldn't find the words. She had just said it casually to embarrass Caroline. She wasn't sure if all of them could join Layla's company.When they saw Emery's silence, they immediately understood. "Emery! How could you trick us like that?""That's right. We decided to leave this company with you, but now you're telling us we don't have a job. Who is going to pay me this month?""I don't care! Emery, I lost my job because of you. Now you have to find me a new one!"The crowd surrounded Emery.Seeing this, Jack couldn't help giving Caroline a discreet thumbs-up. He was really impressed with her! It turned out that Caroline had no intention of keeping these people with her from the start. If she had fi

Caroline hummed in assent and sent all the information she had prepared to Gavin.As soon as Gavin hung up the phone, he got a call from Luke. "How about it, Gavin? Have you made your decision?"Gavin asked in confusion, "A decision on what?""To retract your investments, of course!" Luke said excitedly, "I'm telling you, Ms. Layla already has investments from Mr. Eddy. Her company is on the 24th floor, and it's also an apparel company. When the time comes …"Gavin ended the call without letting Luke finish. After listening to Luke, he could tell that Layla's company was just another company like Dan's. He could guess how that company would turn out. In this case, he might as well place his hopes on Caroline. At least he would see something different.After being hung up on, Luke threw away his phone impatiently.Nearby, Tom asked with a smile, "What's wrong, Luke?""That ungrateful bastard, Gavin, just hung up on me!"Tom smiled. "Then, you should be happy."Luke looked a

Fortunately, although Eddy had been furious that day, his resolve had wavered as soon as Layla threatened to commit suicide to atone for her sins. Otherwise, she wouldn't have known how to get through this predicament.It was all Caroline's fault! As Layla simmered in anger, a hint of venom appeared in her eyes....Caroline talked with several recruitment companies and chose a relatively reliable one to handle recruitment. Immediately afterward, she went to meet several companies' bosses.All of them heartily congratulated Caroline on becoming Evans Group's CEO. However, when Caroline proposed for them to be shareholders, they all said they had no money and told her to find another partner. After all, everyone knew that the Evans Group was a money pit. No one would dare work with them.Caroline had expected this to happen, so she didn't complicate it and left when her time was almost up. Before getting off work, she got a call from Cook. "Ms. Evans, are you free at the mo
Bogus Billionaire Chapter 325
After Caroline and Kirk decided to go to Macovo with Cook, Gwen and Sean said they would go along with the two as well."It's a good thing I can use my annual leave!" Gwen said excitedly, "Carol, we can go skiing together! I've checked Macovo's weather online, and it's skiing season now."Sean also decided to go to Macovo to keep Gwen company. He secretly shared his plan with Caroline and Kirk. "It just so happens that my three-month probation will end soon. I plan to ask Gwen to make this thing between us official in Macovo."Caroline asked, "Do you need our help?""You just need to keep this a secret from Gwen and pretend not to know anything."Caroline agreed, "Of course."Kirk didn't say anything, but it was clear what his answer was.In the remaining few days, Gwen and Sean prepared for the trip. Meanwhile, Caroline handed over the company's affairs to Cheryl, who had just resigned from Thorne Corp."Just call me if you need any help. Don't worry about the time differe

Sean massaged his temples. This private plane was Krik's. To avoid making Caroline suspicious, they had to say this plane was his. Although the Yates family couldn't compare to the Morrison family in terms of wealth, they also had one or two private planes like this. He said, "I really haven't counted. After all, my family is involved in many industries that even I don't know about."Gwen grimaced at his words. It was really inhumane how rich he was.Sean quipped, "Aren't you working hard for money, Gwen? If you make this thing between us official, all my money will be yours."Gwen covered her eyes. "I may be dazzled by this gorgeous plane, but I still have my rationality!"Caroline echoed Sean's words, saying, "Just give up on resisting, Gwen."Gwen put down her hands and sat down next to Caroline. She hugged Caroline's arm and said childishly, "Hmph, do you really think I'll bend over backward for a plane?"Caroline smiled. "Of course not.""You know me so well, Carol.""

As if realizing what she was thinking, Kirk smiled. "I learned a few phrases during a business trip in Macovo. So I have a general understanding of the language."Caroline blinked. She said, "In other words, the mistress caught the husband and wife in the act, thinking she was being cheated on.""No." Kirk looked at the two women arguing again and put his arms around Caroline's waist. "Both of them are his wives."Gwen heard his words as well. She turned around and asked curiously, "How can they both be his wives? Oh, I got it. It's polygam—"Sean was amused. "This isn't Easton."Gwen and Caroline were utterly confused now.Sean explained, "If I'm right, those two women are that man's wives. But he registered their marriages in different countries, so both marriages are legal."It was Caroline and Gwen's first time hearing something like this, and they were dumbfounded."You can do that?""It's more common than you think. In places that have abolished polygamy, some people w

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
Bogus Billionaire Chapter 1395
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
Bogus Billionaire Chapter 1393
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
