"I'm not a busybody!" Cheryl pouted as she grabbed Caroline's hands. "Tell me, will you? I just want to know what it's like to be in a relationship." Caroline laughed. "How are things between you and Jack?" "Let's not talk about it." Cheryl sighed. She would sink deep into her thoughts whenever Jack was mentioned. "He still thinks of me as a little sister." "Maybe the only way for you to handle this is by being straightforward." "I don't think that's a good idea." Cheryl was worried. "What if he doesn't like me? If I confess to him, but he doesn't like me, wouldn't it be super awkward then? We meet all the time here in the company, after all." "That's true." Caroline nodded. "I'll prod him when I'm free." "Is that really a good idea?" Cheryl sounded uncertain, which made Caroline smile."I won't ask him then," said Caroline."Wait!" Caroline laughed now. "So do you want me to ask him about this or not?" Cheryl lightly pushed Caroline's arm and muttered, "You'r

It didn't take long for Liam to message Caroline about the time and place of their meeting. She searched the location online and found that it was a simple coffee shop in the northern suburbs. However, he wanted them to meet at 9 am the next day. It seemed as though he was in a rush for them to meet. She and her employees would have to prepare the contract by tomorrow morning. Apparently, they would have to work overtime. Caroline pressed a button on her desk and asked Cheryl to come over to her office. A moment later, Cheryl arrived. "Cheryl, tell the legal department that they will have to work overtime. We must get the contract done by 9 am tomorrow." "Is it that urgent?""Yes. Sloan's father called me and said that he wanted to meet me at 9 am to discuss it tomorrow. We should prepare the contract beforehand so that we're prepared in case anything pops up." "Alright then. I'll tell them about this right away," said Cheryl as she turned to leave. Just then, Caroline

The doors opened just then, and Kirk entered the office. "You're awake," he said. "Where were you?" Caroline turned to stare at him, her eyes full of worry. Abruptly, she noticed her toothbrush and cup in his hands. Kirk smirked. "Why didn't you sleep for a bit longer?" "It's already 7 am. It's about time for me to leave." Kirk handed her the toothbrush and cup and kissed her on the lips. It was soft at first, but soon he deepened the kiss. She struggled to pull away for air. A moment later, he finally let go of her. Embarrassed, Caroline pounded her fists against his chest. "Are you starving or what?""Yes, I am." Kirk laughed, which made her blush even further. She took the toothbrush and cup from him and rushed out of the office to freshen up. She came back shortly after that to see Kirk sitting in her chair and flipping through the contract. She wasn't alarmed, though. She simply let him carry on with what he was doing. All of a sudden, Kirk broke the silence. "Y

"Are you sure it's fine?" Caroline nudged Kirk's arm.He smiled. "Yep," he said. "But that person's been trying to call you for so long. Maybe it's something urgent?" "No." Kirk's tone was cool. Caroline didn't look away from him, though. Her gaze fell on Kirk's pocket, where his phone was still ringing. "I'll help you answer it," she suggested. Kirk raised his eyes to look at her in silence before passing her his phone. She took a look at the screen to find that it was someone calling from overseas. The caller was anonymous. After answering the call, the person on the other end of the line started talking immediately. His voice was pleasant to the ear, yet he sounded like a badass person. "You finally answered my call.""Hello? This is Kirk's wife." The caller fell silent for a while before chuckling. "I see. Nice to meet you. So, you're my bro's wife."His bro's wife? Caroline turned to stare at Kirk in confusion. Kirk had a brother? Why had she never met this brot

"No worries," said Liam as he passed Caroline the menu. "I haven't ordered anything. Please, take your pick." Caroline ordered a few of the restaurant's specialty dishes and handed the menu back to Liam. After his order was taken, he gave the menu back to the waiter.After the waiter was gone, Liam glanced at Jack, waiting for an introduction. "This is Jack," Caroline said. "He's no stranger to me." Liam smiled. "I see. I have nothing to worry about anymore, then. How much are you willing to pay to take over Mackey Group?"Caroline raised two fingers in the air, making Liam go pale instantly. "20 million dollars? You can't be serious.""Why not?" She stared unblinkingly at him. He bunched up the tablecloth in his fist under the table. "You said that you would buy the company at a price higher than the market value before this. Yet you're offering a price two-thirds lower than the market price now. You're being unreasonable." Caroline took a sip from her drink and expla

Kirk strode into SY Group's headquarters in Easton. There wasn't a single person in sight. After making sure that there was absolutely no one left there besides the two of them, Charles walked out and told him, "Sir, I've checked all the rooms. All the employees have left." "Where's the parcel?" Charles brought Kirk to the reception counter and said, "Here it is. This is the parcel you wanted." Kirk stared at the box, his gaze dark and piercing. "Sir," said Charles with his voice lowered. "Does this box really contain a … bomb?" Instead of answering, Kirk simply stared unblinkingly at the box. No one could ever be certain of how much what Finn said was true. It wouldn't hurt to be extra careful. "Are they here?""They're waiting for your orders at the back door," Charles whispered. He didn't have the guts to speak loudly at this crucial moment. Things would go awry if they were discovered. "Let them come in," ordered Kirk.Charles nodded, headed to the back d

"I can't just leave you behind," Jack protested. He stayed by her side, wanting to ensure her safety. He wouldn't run off without her. "You don't need to push yourself," said Caroline through gritted teeth. "There's only the two of us now. As long as one of us escapes, the other will have a chance at being saved." "Madam—""Enough." Releasing her grasp on his arm, Caroline dashed toward the two brutes and bit one of their arms. "Run!" She hollered, then bit on one of the men's arms again. The man yelled in pain and kicked her in the stomach, making her crash against the wall. The impact was so great that she winced in agony. She tried to bear the pain as she wrapped her arms around the man's thigh. It all happened in the blink of an eye. Fortunately, Caroline had informed Jack of what she was going to do. So he darted through the door when he heard Caroline yell for him to run. By the time the brutes reacted, Jack was already quite a distance away from them. One of the

Kirk gripped his phone tighter and asked, "Where are you now?""I'm in the northern suburbs following them right now. But I've been drugged, and I don't think my body can take it any longer. You have to get here quickly," Jack answered. He was afraid that being just a moment too slow would cause even more mishaps. He added, "Also, I saw them dump all of the madam's belongings. I think they're trying to avoid being tracked. They're very professional. I can tell at a glance that they've been trained."Kirk ended the call and turned to head to the basement. "Have someone track Jack's location immediately," he ordered.Meanwhile, Charles jogged to catch up with Kirk. As he did, he answered, "Yes, sir."As they spoke, they arrived at the parking lot. Kirk opened the car door and slipped into the driver's seat. Not daring to delay, Charles quickly got into the car too.Charles had assumed that Kirk would speed, but Kirk drove quite steadily. Charles found this unusual and said, "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
