Caroline and Gwen raised their heads at the voice, looking at the newcomer. Seeing that it was Adrian, Caroline was surprised. "What are you doing here?""I'm going on a business trip," Adrian explained. He took the suitcases from Caroline's hands. "Let's go. I'll help you check these in."Caroline and Gwen followed Adrian, each holding one suitcase.Gwen looked at Adrian suspiciously and whispered, "Isn't this too much of a coincidence? Is he really on a business trip?"Caroline said, "It's a small world. Maybe he really is going on a business trip.""But I keep having the feeling that he likes you. Maybe he found out about your whereabouts and showed up here at the right time," Gwen said."I told you, he already has a girlfriend."Gwen still wanted to refute, but Adrian had already handed the large suitcases to the airport staff. Then, he turned around and took Caroline's suitcase."Where are you two going?" Adrian asked."Macovo," Gwen answered first. "What about you?
Adrian didn't want to bring up that man. "I'm not sure, maybe because we haven't gotten any information about Eddy's second uncle. "After all, I heard the Collinses had signed a contract with him, and now they're joining the entertainment industry together."At the mention of Eddy's second uncle, Andrea said, "That man is really mysterious. I guess no one except the Morrisons knows what he looks like." She paused, then continued, "Because his merger of various cosmetic brands was too high-profile, many people thought he was a conspicuous person. "They waited for his official announcement to find out which field of work he would join this time. Unexpectedly, he did all of this under the radar."If SY Group hadn't appeared in several investments, the Sorkins wouldn't have discovered that SY Group and the Collinses were cooperating so much. "It was strange for Eddy's second uncle to be so conspicuous the last time. Keeping a low profile is his preference," Adrian said."That's
Kirk's gaze was fathomless and charming. Caroline unexpectedly found herself getting lost in his beautiful eyes. By the time she returned to her senses, Kirk had already leaned forward to kiss her lips.She hurriedly raised her hand to grab him. "I don't believe you. If you aren't married, why would the City Hall in Macldo record that you're married in your information?""Maybe there's an error in the system." Kirk held her shoulder and looked at her earnestly. "Darling, we've been together for so long. I'm sure you know what kind of person I am."His words made Caroline relax her grip. He was right. After being together for so long, apart from this incident, Kirk had been the perfect husband. She looked up at Kirk. "C—can I really trust you?""Of course," Kirk reassured, slowly placing Caroline's hand on his chest.The coldness in Caroline's eyes slowly dissipated when she felt Kirk's strong heartbeat with her fingertips. Just as she was about to tell him she trusted him,
Adrian looked out the window sadly, looking melancholic. "I would rather have my family's compassion than my lover's affection."Caroline blinked in confusion. "Does your family … not treat you well?"Adrian had tried to gain Caroline's sympathy by selling his sob story, but he was briefly stunned by her words. "I … I'm the Sorkin's illegitimate child. Why would they treat me well?" He looked at Caroline strangely. "Don't you know that?"Caroline blinked, and it finally dawned on her. She had wondered why the Sorkins had introduced Adrian to the daughter of the Hackett family. After all, for them to make a smart match, they would definitely match him with the ladies from the other big four families. But it turned out that Adrian was an illegitimate child.Adrian couldn't help but frown at Caroline's surprised expression. "Everyone made a big fuss when I was brought home. Didn't you know?"It was understandable that Caroline hadn't recognized him at first. After all, they had
Caroline only regained her composure after blinking desperately several times. "I …"Gwen was exasperated that Caroline hadn't considered this. "Carol, if you haven't considered it before, you can start doing so. "Kirk's polygamy is a sure thing, and I don't want you to destroy yourself in this relationship. A great philosopher once said that the best way to move on from a relationship is time or another person."Seeing Caroline remain silent, Gwen frowned in disapproval. "Or do you plan to forgive him and spend your life sharing him with another woman?"Caroline remembered her nightmare on the plane, and her face turned pale. She shook her head. "No! I don't want that!"This was a matter of principle. If there were a third person in this relationship, she would rather not be a part of it."Then, are you—"At this time, there was another knock on the door. Adrian asked, "Did something happen, Caroline?""We're coming!" Gwen responded, holding Caroline's hand. "Carol, you don
Caroline hugged Gwen's waist, nuzzling her face in her neck. "It's a good thing you're around, Gwen."The two friends talked some more before falling asleep.However, in the room right next to theirs, Adrian couldn't sleep at all. Caroline's absentminded look filled his entire mind. Although she hadn't said why she was acting this way, his intuition told him that it had something to do with her husband.Adrian got even more jealous at the thought of that man and couldn't sleep. That man had the world's greatest blessing, yet he didn't know how to appreciate her!...Meanwhile, at the Collins family's home in Easton, Jane whispered, "What do you mean you can't find them? How can you not find three living people?"The butler also lowered his voice. "Mrs. Collins, we've already sent everyone we could, but we still can't find anyone. Was … was there maybe an error in your information?"Jane couldn't resist raising her voice. "No way there's an error! I went to get these three peop
When Adrian woke up the next day, he thought Caroline would still be depressed, but that wasn't the case. She had slept well and was in high spirits. She didn't look troubled at all. Adrian somewhat admired how quickly she had recovered."Where are you guys going today?" Adrian pretended to be worried. He said, "I haven't bought a ticket yet, so I guess I have to stay in Macovo a little longer."Gwen joked, saying, "Is it because there are no flights to where you want to go? Or is the internet here so bad that you can't even buy a ticket, Mr. Sorkin?"Adrian guessed Gwen probably noticed something. So he looked at Gwen kindly and said, "You're right. It's both of those reasons."Gwen pursed her lips.Caroline didn't notice the confrontation they were having. She replied, "The main purpose of our trip here is to help Gwen find witnesses, so we don't have plans just to hang out. "Adrian, if you want to go sightseeing, you can ask the manager for a local travel guide."Adrian
They didn't know Macovian, but thankfully, translation apps existed."Oh." After coming out of the first house, Gwen was so tired that she leaned into Caroline's arms. She asked, "Do you know what I'm thinking about?"Caroline said, "You wish Sean was here."Gwen nuzzled herself into Caroline's arms. "You read my mind, Carol." At this moment, Gwen had realized the benefits of having Sean around. He could speak Macovian like Kirk, but he claimed he wasn't as proficient in the language as Kirk. However, during their last visit, Gwen saw that he didn't have any problems communicating.He was totally different from them. Although they could use translation apps, communicating was too troublesome.However, the Macovians loved the things Caroline had brought, and they were clearly more enthusiastic than last time. They could've talked more if it hadn't been for the language barrier.Unfortunately, the hostel owner was too far from the scene, so he didn't see what happened.Carol
