"Darling …" Kirk said softly.In the front, Jack happened to see Kirk's docile expression in the rearview mirror. The sight shocked him so much that he thought he was seeing things.Caroline frowned and didn't answer Kirk. Instead, she was reading Quentin's investigation report. The report showed that the group of thugs who attacked them were actually Jane's people. Jane was also Brie's mother.Caroline slowly connected the dots in her memories. Back then, she had bumped into Jane and Daphne at the bridal boutique. Although she wasn't directly involved with Brie going insane, there was no doubt the Collins family held a grudge against her.This was where things got strange. After Caroline had returned from visiting Ivan, she had been waiting for the Collins family to come after her. However, they had never given her any trouble, so she had gradually forgotten about it. She hadn't expected Jane to be the mastermind of a seemingly simple robbery.Caroline slowly connected t
Caroline wanted to break away from his grip, but Kirk pinned her hand down. She couldn't move an inch. However, Kirk looked at her innocently. "Right, darling?"Caroline blushed so much that she was about to sweat. "Kirk!""Darling …""Mr. Jack, stop the car!" Caroline ordered.Jack did as he was told.Caroline pointed outside the door. "Hurry up and eat, and get back here when you're done." She really wanted to ask Dolly who had given her the order to deceive her.Kirk objected, "Come with me, darling."Caroline frowned. "Why are you so annoying today?" He was being so clingy! She didn't remember him being this clingy."I'm afraid you'll leave me behind."Caroline was dumbstruck. Under Kirk's pleading gaze, she relented and got out of the car.They walked into a food store. It wasn't time for a meal, so there wasn't anyone in the store.The female owner was delighted to see a handsome man and a beautiful woman in her store. She asked enthusiastically, "What would you li
A shiver ran down Kirk's back as he took out his phone with a smile. "Of course not. You can look through my phone if you want."Caroline observed Kirk's demeanor. After ensuring he wasn't lying, she reached out for his phone. When she looked down, she didn't notice that Kirk's hands were trembling. Caroline was about to ask Kirk for his password when she noticed that Kirk had used a photo of her as his wallpaper. She was surprised. She didn't remember taking this photo. "When did you take this photo?" She asked, showing the photo to Kirk.Kirk smiled. "The first time when we–""Stop," Caroline interrupted, glaring at him. She was afraid of what he was going to say. There were other people in this car.Kirk smiled slightly at her response.Caroline shoved the phone at Kirk, blushing. "Forget it. I changed my mind."Kirk took his phone back. "Are you sure?"Knowing how calm and composed Kirk was, Caroline guessed he had more photos of her on his phone. She didn't want him t
Caroline raised Dolly's chin. "Tell me, why did you put on that act? And who ordered you to do that?""I-I don't know. I don't know anything." Dolly shook her head, trying to break free from Caroline's grasp. However, she immediately felt immense pain in her jaw. Caroline's strength was utterly unlike that of a woman."How about now?" Caroline glared at Dolly. The look in her eyes was terrifying.Somehow, Dolly noticed that she had the same intimidating air as Kirk. She couldn't resist looking up at Kirk. Kirk's eyes were cold as they followed Caroline's movements from his spot a distance away. He wasn't looking at her at all. It was as if he didn't know her. But she was Avery's friend!Moreover, she was an actress whose appearance was top-notch. She couldn't believe Kirk didn't remember her at all. Before Dolly could continue her internal rants, she felt another wave of pain in her jaw. She took a breath. ""I-I'll talk! I-It was …"Everyone looked over at Dolly, including t
At this moment, Caroline's doubts about Kirk completely disappeared. It seemed that Daphne was behind this entire ordeal."I don't have any more questions." She stood up. She looked at Kirk before quickly shifting her gaze away. "What about you guys?"Kirk smiled slightly at her actions. "I don't.""Then, let's go home." Caroline kicked the gravel under her feet.Kirk grabbed Caroline's hand. "Okay."This time, Caroline didn't struggle.When Charles saw them walk out of the warehouse hand in hand, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that they had successfully resolved this crisis.Charles looked back at Dolly. Then, as if he thought of something, he hurriedly ran out. "Sir, I have something to tell you."Kirk looked at Caroline.Caroline said, "Go ahead. I'll wait for you in the car."After getting Caroline's permission, Kirk walked toward Charles.Charles waited for Caroline to get in the car before saying, "Sir, what should we do about Ms. Daphne?""Let her
Charles had seen many women like Daphne. He bent down and ripped Daphne's arms away from his thigh, both sympathetically and coldly. "You'll be living here for now, Ms. Dawson. I'll ask your manager to tell the outside world that you're injured and need to rest. Take care of yourself." With that, he walked out of the room and slammed the door shut.Daphne stared at the door, still unwilling to accept the truth. "N-no! This isn't true! Caroline can't be Mr. Kirk's wife! I-I am ..."But no matter how much she cried, no one came in to console her. After an unknown amount of time, her cell phone rang.Daphne wiped away her tears. She picked up her phone and saw it was an unknown number. She wasn't in the mood to answer the phone, but the caller was persistent.Daphne was so angry that she answered the call and yelled, "Why the hell are you calling me, you crazy mutt? I'll fucking kill you!""Oh gosh, a public figure like you is losing your mind. It seems that Caroline has caused
In a restaurant, Gwen's mouth was open in shock from hearing Caroline explain the whole story. "A-Are you for real?"Caroline nodded."T-That's just absurd. Do you believe it, Carol?"Caroline looked down at the tableware in front of her. "It is absurd. I didn't believe it at first, but various signs are pointing to it being true."Gwen said, "I still find it weird that Eddy's second uncle asked someone to make a fake certificate. "However, the minds of rich people aren't something we ordinary people can understand. Maybe he did ask Kirk and Daphne to register their marriage to make a fake certificate."She paused, then continued, "After all, if he registered the marriage himself, he would lose half of his property if they divorced. "So what's your next move? Are you going to forgive Kirk and pretend this incident never happened, or …"Caroline picked up her fork and poked at the food on her plate. "I don't know either. That's why I invited you here."Gwen laughed. "Carol, y
Caroline's text read, "Have you eaten? I made a little too much food for dinner."Right now, Kirk was sitting in his office, listening to his subordinates' reports about their work progress. He had a gloomy expression as he listened. He looked so terrifying that the subordinate trembled in fear, almost biting his tongue several times.Everyone else was also nervous, and they didn't dare to breathe. This tense situation had lasted for over a month. Everyone was exhausted.Just at this moment, everyone heard a sharp ring in the office. Apparently, someone hadn't muted their phone. No one could believe someone still made such a stupid mistake at a crucial time like this. They secretly cursed the person who hadn't silenced their phone.The next second, Kirk picked up his phone and looked at it.Everyone was silent. Before they could recover from their fear, they saw a smile appear on Kirk's face for the first time in a month. The sight shocked everyone so much that their jaws drop
