When Kirk hit Adrian's face with his fist, Caroline happened to step through the hotel entrance.

So she clearly saw Kirk swinging his fist and Adrian falling to the ground.

Furious, she ran in front of Adrian without hesitation and blocked Kirk. "What the hell are you doing, Kirk?"

Kirk calmed down immediately in the face of Caroline, who had suddenly shown up.

However, when he realized she was protecting Adrian, he lost his rationality again. He clenched his fists tightly, digging his nails into his palm. "Are you protecting him?"

"He's my friend! Why are you hurting him?" Caroline glared back at him.

He was going too far! It was fine if he only hurt her, but now he wouldn't even let her friends off the hook!

Kirk gritted his teeth and asked again, "Are you protecting him?"

Caroline didn't know what he was obsessed with, but compared to his question, she would rather have him apologize to Adrian. "You hurt someone! You should apologize to my friend!"

"What if I don't?" Ki

    Caroline had never treated Adrian this coldly before. But now, because he had brought up divorce, she …He said, "But since he hit me, aren't you worried that—""He won't." Caroline fully trusted Kirk when it came to matters of physical violence. "He wouldn't do something like that."Adrian immediately became speechless. The silence wrapped around his chest like a web. After a while, he smiled. "You're right. He wouldn't."Caroline looked at him, confused by his words.Adrian smiled, feeling resigned. "He punched me just now because I provoked him on purpose. So he wasn't in the wrong. I'm the wrongdoer here."Caroline's expression shifted at his words. "Are you telling the truth?"Her expression tugged at Adrian's heart, but he still said with a smile, "Yeah.""Why did you do that?" Caroline was angry.Adrian looked at her, hurt swirling in his gaze. All the things he wanted to say were stuck in his throat. After a moment, he smiled sadly and apologized, "I'm sorry. I j

    One of the two people was Angelo, Dolly's husband. Dolly was the woman she had met on her previous trip to Macovo. His body looked more plump. The woman beside him wasn't the bejeweled woman from before, nor was she Dolly. Instead, she was a young woman who looked to be in her 20s.Angelo didn't seem to recognize Caroline. He walked to the nurse's desk, asked for a box of contraceptives, and then left.Behind Caroline, the nurse sighed softly.Although she couldn't understand Macovian, noticing the nurse's yearning look, she couldn't help but ask, "Do you know that gentleman?"The nurse first looked at Caroline in surprise. Then, noticing she wasn't Macovian, she said warmly, "Of course, he's the owner of this clinic.""He's your boss?" Caroline hadn't known about this. However, this explained why the women around him were more beautiful than the others. After all, clinic owners made quite a lot of money."Yes, and he isn't married yet. I wonder which lucky girl will get to m

    Caroline felt like someone who had run away to avoid the complicated world. She didn't want to think about the hardships caused by the trivial disputes of life.Seeing that she didn't resist, Kirk finally had the courage to lead her back to the hotel.The two quietly stepped on the snow coating the street. They walked on the short road for over half an hour.After entering the hotel, Caroline felt the warm temperature hit her face. As if she had returned to reality, she snapped out of her trance and jerked her hand away from Kirk.Gwen, Sean, and Adrian, who were waiting in the lobby, came over when they saw them. Gwen grabbed Caroline and glanced at Kirk. She asked, "Are you okay, Carol?""I'm fine." Caroline looked down at the floor. "Let's go upstairs.""Okay."Gwen dragged Caroline away, leaving the three men behind in the lobby.Adrian looked at Sean and asked, "Dr. Yates, can I talk to your friend privately?" He had just learned from Gwen that Sean was a famed genius

    After Adrian left, Sean walked back to Kirk's side. "I didn't expect Mr. Sorkin to be so fond of Caroline."Kirk looked at Sean coldly.Feeling a chill on his back, Sean quickly changed the subject. "What's going on with you and Caroline? I saw you two holding hands and coming back together. Have you reconciled?"Kirk glared at Sean again. Only then did Sean realize that he had said something stupid. If he learned that his partner was polygamous, he wouldn't be able to forgive them unless there was a misunderstanding like Kirk's. But since Kirk couldn't tell Caroline the truth, she had no idea that there was a misunderstanding."But you don't have to worry." With a smile, Sean lightened the gloomy atmosphere and hooked his arm around Kirk's shoulder. "I talked to Gwen when you were out looking for Caroline. It turns out they're here in Macovo to find proof that Gwen is innocent. But since neither of them speak Macovian, they're having trouble with the language barrier."He p

    Sean helplessly looked at Kirk in the passenger seat. However, Kirk was in a good mood. The corners of his lips curved into a small smile.Following yesterday's route, the two of them started visiting each house. With translators like Sean and Kirk around, they did better than yesterday. Caroline finally had the opportunity to introduce the items she had brought from Easton, and Macovo's residents could have a better understanding of the things she was giving them.This approach undoubtedly increased the residents' trust in the four of them. And sure enough, they began opening up to them.Several people said they were at the skating rink that day and saw that girl falling by herself. Since she had made too much noise and was an outsider, they remembered her as clear as day. They even offered to help record a video to prove Gwen's innocence if necessary, which was an unexpected surprise.Although they were only witnesses, they could at least prove that Mia's side of the story

    The car became pindrop silent for a moment.Sean braced himself several times before saying, "Kirk has his reasons for having multiple marriages.""Reasons?" Gwen sneered, "Did someone hold him at gunpoint and force him to get married? My dad loves using that word. Every time my mom caught him cheating on her, he would say he had his reasons for doing so. "He would say that he slept with other women for the sake of his company, or he didn't know what came over him."But I could tell he enjoyed being with other women, so why couldn't he say that? Couldn't he own up to his mistakes?" Gwen became more and more agitated as she talked, completely forgetting that she was in the car.The noise woke Caroline up. She slowly opened her eyes and looked at Gwen in confusion. "Gwen …"Caroline's voice brought Gwen back to her senses, and she forced a smile. "I'm sorry, Carol. I was being too loud.""Did something happen?" Caroline rubbed her eyes."We …""It's nothing. We were just disc

    As the man watched Caroline leave, he asked with a smile, "Did you have a fight with your wife?"Kirk nodded slightly."Quarrels can actually improve a spouse's relationship." He explained with a smile, "My wife and I understand each other better every time we fight."This was Kirk's first time hearing such an argument, and he grimaced. "Even if quarreling improves our relationship, I don't want to fight with my wife. "Because every time we fight, it would cause a wound in my wife's heart, and every time we reconcile, it would leave a scar in her heart."The man was stunned by his words. Then, he said nonchalantly, "You're right. From now on, I have to avoid fighting with my wife."After Caroline walked out of the study, she saw two children fighting over an Ultraman action figure. When she had first looked at the family's information, it said the family had two children, a boy and a girl. So she had bought an action figure and a doll for them. However, she discovered th

    Kirk had already come to a stop in front of her. He raised his hand and patted Caroline's head as if rewarding a well-behaved child. Then, he turned to the two children and said, "Do you remember what Ms. Caroline said?"Although Kirk was smiling, he was still intimidating. The two children nodded timidly.Kirk said, "That's good. Go ahead and play outside."The two children immediately dashed outside.Caroline also wanted to run, but she couldn't move her legs. Besides, she was ashamed that she was so attached to Kirk's touch. She thought she was really nuts. If she wasn't in Macovo, she would really ask Kirk for a divorce. If this continued, she doubted she could keep resisting Kirk's influence. She kept telling herself that polygamy was wrong. It was wrong!"Darling …" Kirk brushed away Caroline's hair. "That was a nice speech. You're also good at handling children. It proves that your previous worries were unnecessary.""Don't touch me." Caroline took a big step back. S

    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
