Chapter 449

Author: Shining Riviera
Cheryl looked at Caroline in disbelief.

"Caroline, you must be joking, right? Your husband's so handsome, and he's a manager at Morrison Corp. Do you know how many people would want to marry him?"

Caroline really didn't have a clue.

After Cheryl explained things, Caroline finally understood that Kirk was an exceptional man when it came to ordinary people. He was a very successful man.

Caroline had only considered Kirk an ordinary person because she had been comparing him to men from wealthy families, those with riches that had been accumulating for multiple generations.

Indeed, when compared to such men, Kirk didn't have many advantages.

"Besides, women now have to look at more than what's in men's wallets. We also have to consider their looks. With your husband's looks, countless people would throw money at him even if he was broke."

Caroline was confused by this, and it showed on her face.

"I can tell that you don't pay attention to what goes on in the entertainment indust

    Caroline looked at Kirk in confusion. "I really don't understand why it's so hard to explain why you're supposedly already married."Right then, there was a knock at the door.Caroline turned her head and saw Jack with a basket full of vegetables. He looked to be at a loss for words. This glass sliding door was really good for soundproofing.Caroline had no choice but to pull the door open. "Ms. Evans, Cheryl asked me to tell you that the webseries is starting."Caroline nodded and took one last look at Kirk before leaving the kitchen.Back in the living room, Caroline was still thinking about what she had asked Kirk. She couldn't pay much attention to the show at all. However, Cheryl was having the time of her life watching it. "Caroline, I really understand why you said Sonia would become popular after watching this show. Her entrance was amazing! She can beat Daphne Dawson any day!"Caroline answered distractedly, "That's right.""Speaking of Daphne Dawson, I really w

    At that same moment, Layla and Daphne were both overjoyed in their live stream. A large portion of people who watched the stream only did so because of Eddy's and his second uncle's reputation. The fact that Daphne was Eddy's second aunt wasn't a secret anymore. Meanwhile, Layla had been showing up with Eddy frequently during this time. Privately, she was known as Eddy's girlfriend already. With the two of them being on the same live stream, it naturally attracted lots of intrigued people. The comments section was going crazy."Ahhh, it's a dream team. Who would have thought an aunt and a niece-in-law would be such a great team?""Although Layla hasn't married Mr. Eddy yet, I think it's going to happen soon.""I admire them so much. They seem to have a great relationship!"These comments and more kept springing up.Seeing the number of views steadily climbing, Layla smiled. This was exactly the kind of outcome she wanted. Layla knew that Eddy's name would bring in a lot of

    Caroline only found out that her name had trended the next day. She didn't pay much attention to that kind of thing and only realized it because she had been checking the views on Sonia's new webseries."Since last night until now, the accumulated views hasn't even broken five million yet," the head of the advertising department said with a frown, rapping the desk in the conference room. "Ms. Evans, I don't think the show will become popular."Caroline's expression was indifferent.The head of the marketing department used this opportunity to ask, "Ms. Evans, shouldn't we adjust our strategy? The plan of waiting for our ambassador's webseries to go viral has always been an uncertainty."Caroline fiddled with the pen in her hand and stayed silent. Meanwhile, the heads of some other departments also brought up some suggestions. On the whole, they agreed with the marketing department head. They wanted Caroline to switch up the strategy and use Layla's popularity to make some s

    Cheryl realized just how unwavering Caroline's attitude was. Countless people came to push her in the next few days, all asking her to take action. Nevertheless, she remained unmoved.Caroline remained at ease even when Andrea came to have a meal with her to apologize for Sonia's show not becoming popular and delaying her advertising campaign. Caroline only waved a hand at that and said it was fine.This caused many people to wonder if she had gone off her rocker. That, or that she was in a panic and was only pretending to be unaffected.But Cheryl, who had been by Caroline's side every day, knew more than anyone that Caroline was truly completely at ease.However, her peacefulness was not akin to a puddle of standing water. No, it was the calm before the storm.This allowed Cheryl to get over her anxiety and slowly calm down.This peacefulness persisted until the third day. Cheryl had been suffering for the past few days. It felt like the days had stretched into a century.

    Seeing how their stock had been sold out so quickly, the heads of the advertising and marketing departments exchanged glances with each other. Neither of them had ever expected that they could sell that many items. As such, they still hadn't informed Caroline that the factory had stopped manufacturing their products because it had chosen to fulfill Evanson Corp's order first instead.Thinking of how they wouldn't be able to ship the orders tomorrow, the two of them started sweating bullets."Ms. Evans …" The two braced themselves and went to Caroline. "We … don't have the stock to fulfill the orders …"Caroline regarded them coldly and tossed a contract before them. "This is the contract I signed with our new manufacturer. Tomorrow, you will go and deal with order fulfillment. "This is the first time this has happened, and it's because we didn't have enough trust in each other. If this happens again, you should prepare your resignation letters."The two department heads f

    For a moment, Layla failed to react to that statement. It took another moment for her to understand what Luke meant.Luke was truly an old hand at this. He was a slippery and cunning businessman.After Layla's own marketing campaign, Caroline had negative press hounding her steps. As long as they tied Sonia to Caroline, Sonia's sterling reputation would dissipate into nothing.Thinking of this, Layla rushed the advertising department to have Sonia's sponsorship announcement on Twitter go viral. Because of the comparison with Daphne when the sponsorship announcement was made, Sonia had gotten on the list of trending topics before. However, that had been two weeks ago.Now, after her latest boom in popularity, everyone was reminded of the initial announcement. Layla didn't stop there. She went a step further.Beyond having the initial announcement go viral again, Layla had the advertising department get someone to release fake news on a massive scale. The news implied that Car

    Sonia's eyelashes fluttered. After a long while, she loosened her fists and said, "I don't have any opinion on this, Ms. Evans. I'll do whatever you want me to."Seeing this, Andrea felt like she couldn't say much more against the plan. So she said, "Caroline, let me know if you need any help on your end."Caroline replied, "No need. Just upload the vlog Sonia filmed before.""J-just like that?" Andrea wondered if she had heard Caroline wrongly.Yet, Caroline only responded confidently. "Yes."After thinking it through, Andrea found no disadvantages to doing it, so she uploaded Sonia's vlog online. At the beginning, there was more outrage and criticism. But as the video became more popular, the comments became more reasonable."Wow, Sonia works so hard. Does she train like this every day?""She even trains when she's injured. She's truly driven!""Ahh, I really feel for her. But I'm so glad that others can see the work Sonia put in.""Wow, Sonia takes it so seriously! Althou

    When it came down to it, Sonia and Cheryl rarely got involved in advertising. That was why they couldn't see the skill in this move. Andrea sent the caption and video to her head of advertising. Seeing that they were confused, she said to them, "It's understandable that you don't get it. What Caroline did showcases Sonia as someone who takes responsibility when it comes to her fans."Cheryl was still a bit perplexed. "But the partnership was announced more than two weeks ago. Isn't it too late to be checking the clothes' quality?"But Sonia had already seen the reasoning behind it. That was why she covered her mouth and giggled when she heard Cheryl's words. She said to Cheryl, "That's why Ms. Evans never stated when this video was taken."Cheryl was stunned for a moment before she came back to herself. "That way, netizens will think this happened before product selection.""That's right," confirmed Caroline with a smile. Cheryl was unsure. "But if people find out we're lying

    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
