When she got to that point, Gwen laughed. "It was better in the past when I would dump them after I got them. "I didn't have to worry about the guy cheating at all. As long as we break up fast, they won't get to cheat on me."Caroline smiled as she looked at Gwen, but it didn't reach her eyes. Gwen was right. Love was really quite tiring. One needed to nurture love with a lot of effort so that it could last forever. "What about you?" Gwen asked, turning her head toward Caroline.The smile was still on Caroline's face, but now her gaze drifted. "I … Do you remember I told you I was scared?"Gwen blinked."The husband was a murderer, but the wife only found out when the police came to their door …"Gwen sat up. "You mean …"Caroline shook her head as she laughed. "No. It's just that my complete trust in him seems to be cracking.""What exactly happened?"Caroline shook her head and looked at the time. "I'm not sure yet. I still have to wait …"Caroline just had to wait a lit

Adrian frowned imperceptibly when he heard Caroline use such a formal form of address. "I'm here about yesterday …" Adrian started. "Andrea said you wanted to sign with one of the female celebrities under Sorkin Group. Is that right?""That's right." Seeing that Adrian was talking about business, Caroline's tense back finally relaxed. "It's Sonia Norman. This is the contract we've drafted. Please have a look."She continued, "As for the fee, we will use a new model. There will be a basic fee for her to become our ambassador, and then 10% of the profits. Is that alright?"Caroline had checked Sonia's other sponsorships. Sonia was paid a million dollars or more every year. With Evans Group's current situation, every cent had to be spent well. Thus, Caroline had offered a fee of 800 thousand dollars and then profit sharing later on.To Sorkin Group, this amount wouldn't lose money, but it wouldn't make money either. For business people, not making money amounted to a loss. Hen

Caroline smiled. "That won't happen. Sonia has a solid fanbase. Even if the webseries fails, we can still get sales through streams."Cheryl immediately relaxed when she heard that. "Caroline, you're amazing. You really thought of everything. I'll be going then."Caroline nodded. After watching Cheryl leave, she slumped onto the couch in fatigue.Even though she was at work, she needed to expend a lot of energy to concentrate on doing her job. Otherwise, her thoughts would always drift off, and she would think about how Marina's search was going. What if Kirk really had another wife? What would she do then?All these thoughts suffocated her, making it hard for her to breathe.Caroline looked up at the clock on the wall and unlocked her phone. Marina should be at work at this hour, but there was still no news from her.Clicking on their chat, Caroline hesitated before deciding to send Marina a message anyway. "Have you found it?"After sending the message, Caroline immediatel

"Madam, what's wrong?" The moment Charles came into the office, he noticed Caroline slumped on the couch, pale-faced. It looked like she had just been hit hard by something and was barely holding on.Caroline didn't hear what Charles said at all. She couldn't even see Charles in front of her. She could only sense that there was someone's figure moving around.She felt like her soul had been sucked out of her, and she was left in a daze.Charles was at a loss for a time too. Then, he spotted Caroline's phone on the floor in his peripheral vision. He instinctively bent to pick it up while he extracted his phone to call Kirk. At that moment, Caroline pounced on him as if possessed, ripping the phone away from Charles.Charles was shocked by Caroline's behavior. After a few seconds of astonishment, he finally reacted. "Madam, are you alright?"Caroline shouted, her eyes red, "Get out!" At that moment, she didn't want to see anyone who had a connection to Kirk.Charles looked

"What?" Caroline took a step back and interrupted Kirk. "Enough. If you're still hesitating at this point, I doubt you're going to tell the truth. "How about this? I'll give you time to think about it. Once you come up with a lie, you can come and see me again."After saying that, Caroline picked up her luggage and strode downstairs. Kirk caught up to her when she reached the doorway."Where are you going? I'll drop you off." Kirk gripped Caroline's wrist as he begged sincerely.The words to reject him stuck in Caroline's throat. They wouldn't come out, no matter how hard she tried. She squeezed her eyes shut. Seeing that Caroline wasn't rejecting him, Kirk let her go and put her luggage in the trunk. In the car, Caroline didn't say anything more than "Take me home". She didn't want to speak to Kirk, and she didn't have the energy to talk anyway. Kirk wanted to say something more, but Caroline had already slammed the door closed on him. He could only stand there withou

In the end, Cheryl didn't dare ask about it. She was afraid that Jack had only said that he had let go of his feelings because he wanted to keep staying by Caroline's side. Meanwhile, Daphne found out that Caroline had signed with Sonia while she was playing cards with Jane. The second she heard that the celebrity was a no-name one, her expression went dark.The two wealthy ladies sitting with them were friends Jane had brought to play with them. Seeing Daphne's expression change, one of them asked in concern, "What's wrong, Ms. Dawson?"Daphne had to try very hard to keep from bursting into curses right then and there. "It's about work. I have to deal with it for a moment." As she said this, she strode toward the villa's entrance. Her manager chased after her.At the door, Daphne couldn't hold it in anymore. "What does Caroline mean by this? Is she trying to tell me that I'm nothing compared to some no-name celebrity?"Daphne's manager was sweating. She didn't really understan

When Caroline got back to the apartment, she stayed on the couch without moving. She didn't think of anything, nor did she do anything. She simply stared at the ceiling in a daze. But she was still in great anguish. It felt like her heart was being stabbed and cut by countless knives, over and over again.Sometimes, she hurt so badly that she could barely breathe. She even thought that the pain might torture her so much that she would die. But she didn't. She remained alive.Caroline could distinctly feel each wave of pain in every heartbeat as she breathed. Caroline hugged her knees and curled up into a ball. She tried to recall the pain from her breakup with Eddy in order to cover up the pain she felt now. But it was in vain because she had long ago forgotten the pain Eddy had brought her.When she couldn't withstand the pain in her heart, Caroline thought of drinking to get rid of the suffering.Caroline dragged her heavy body and hailed a cab to head to a bar. The bar

Caroline was somewhat furious. She raised a hand and slapped the man. "Get out! Get the fuck out! I never want to see you again!"The man who got hit froze. He looked at the man beside him in shock. His friend was stunned as well. He said, "Ignore her. Let's just take her away."After he said this, the two men went forward to grab Caroline. The bar was packed and noisy, so no one noticed what was going on in this corner. Once the men got Caroline out of the bar, a car drove over. The two men rapidly shoved Caroline into the car and sped off.Right then, in an Audi not far away, Sean suddenly straightened in his seat. "Was that person just now Caroline?"Kirk was already starting the car, his expression cold. He must have seen it too.In the other car, the two men were about to make a move on Caroline. "Ah, what a beautiful woman! I was expecting she would be another ugly duckling. Ouch! She's a fierce one. She pinched me!"Caroline had no clue that she was in deep danger at t

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
