Cheryl went on. "Caroline's husband is way more handsome than the young guys in the entertainment industry. "I've always thought that he could rise among all the male celebrities if he ever went into the entertainment industry.""Is that so?" Marietta's eyes lit up at the mention of handsome men. "I'm starting to look forward to Wednesday's date."Caroline was confounded as she watched Cheryl and Marietta. Right then, in the president's office of SY Group's Easton headquarters, Kirk was grimly looking at Daphne on the screen.After settling his work, he had started thinking about how to deal with Daphne. He couldn't drag things out any longer.Charles had not only found tiny, unnoticeable surveillance devices in Daphne's room, but also that Simon was searching for photos of Kirk.These two matters made Kirk feel rushed to make a decision as soon as possible.He narrowed his eyes as he walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. His gaze was conflicted as he looked out the window
When Caroline got home, she inadvertently noticed Kirk already in the kitchen, busy cooking. She put her bag away and sneaked up to Kirk before embracing him from behind."Don't move. You're being held up."Kirk smiled in the middle of cooking when he heard this. "I can't give you any money, but I can give you my body."Caroline's face went red. "Who says I want that?""Then take my life." Kirk turned around and wrapped his arms around Caroline's waist to lift her up. "However, my naughty thing, could you bear to do it?"Under Kirk's deep gaze, Caroline's ears went red as well. She turned her head unhappily and said, "Put me down."Kirk started to caress Caroline's body with his fingers. "You're already in my arms. Do you think a thief would let you go at this point? Babe, you're so naive."Caroline was so embarrassed that she thumped Kirk in the chest. "Meanie! You're the naughty one."Kirk turned off the stove and gently held Caroline's wrists together. He intentionally licke
When it came down to it, Caroline wanted to experience the kind of joy that came from having the support of her parents. She knew that Marietta would praise her for her taste when she met Kirk.Seeing Caroline duck her head, Kirk felt a twist in his heart. He blurted out, "You want me to meet Marietta?"These words sounded extremely familiar. So much so that Caroline instinctually denied it. "No, no. It's all up to you."Caroline didn't want Kirk to do something he didn't like because of her.Feeling helpless, Kirk looked adoringly at Caroline. "Didn't you say that Marietta Weiss is a renowned playwright? We might have to work with her in the future, too. It wouldn't be a bad thing to meet her, right?"Caroline's eyebrows flew upward. "We're going to work with her?"She didn't dare to imagine it.Kirk laughed. "Of course. Maybe we will still be working on Marietta's works."Caroline ran out of the bathroom and threw her arms around Kirk's neck. "Honey, how are you so great?"
Cheryl was just about to chase after Daphne when Jack's voice came from behind her. "Cheryl, over here!"Unfortunately, Cheryl could only turn around and walk over to Jack. When she got close, Jack finally took a good look at Cheryl's appearance. When he did, his eyes lit up. "You look so beautiful today."Unable to take the compliment, Cheryl felt her face steam. "Have you been waiting long?" she asked."No. I just got us a private room." Jack walked forward. "Come on, I'll take you there."When she found out that Jack had gotten them a private room, Cheryl's face turned even redder. She ducked her head and followed behind him.The corridor felt like it stretched on for ages.Cheryl thought about how she had seen Daphne outside. It was the best topic to use to break this silence between them."When I came in, I saw Daphne."Jack paused in his steps. "You're sure you're not mistaken?""Yeah. I bumped into her accidentally. Also, there was a man next to her. I wonder if he'
Jack chuckled. "Isn't it better for you to tell us?"Cheryl could vaguely sense that something was wrong. "Aren't we just having dinner? Why do I need to say everything so clearly?"Why did it feel like she was on a blind date?In disbelief, her eyes suddenly widened. Her gaze shifted between Antonio and Jack. After a moment, she shot upright. "So you didn't ask me out for dinner, but to set me up on a blind date?""That's right." Jack was clueless as to the severity of the problem. "A few days ago, Ms. Evans asked me to help find you a boyfriend. But she didn't tell me what type. So I had no choice but to bring with my own friend and introduce him to you."After saying that, Jack even smiled. "What do you think? As a brother figure, I'm doing great, right?"Cheryl was so angry that she trembled all over. She picked up her bag and left the private room without a backward glance.Jack was confused as he chased after her. "Cheryl, what is up with you?""I'm fine!"As cluele
"Y-yes …" Jack was a little confused. Why was Charles so excited? It was as if he had just caught a big fish.On the other end, Charles was getting up. "Thanks.""No, you guys …" Jack started. However, the call had already been cut. Jack was flabbergasted.What was going on?Jack's mind buzzed in chaos. First it was Cheryl, and now it was Charles.…At Morrison Manor, Simon strode quickly into Jude's study. He was in such a rush that he even forgot to knock."Sir, something huge just happened!"Jude had been concentrating on practicing his calligraphy. With Simon's entrance, his interest in it was completely lost. He put down his pen and looked at Simon. "Mr. Zellen, you've been working for me for a long time. When did you become as excitable as a kid?"Simon wiped his face and chuckled. "Sir, it's just that it's too huge and too unexpected.""Oh. Well, if there's something that can even surprise you, let's hear it. What happened?""Someone just reported that they saw Ms.
Seeing that Jude was holding the phone without saying anything, Simon couldn't resist going forward and asking, "Sir …"Jude suddenly came back to himself. After a second, he said, "Prepare the car immediately.""Sir, what's going on?"Jude's face was very twisted up now. "I'm not sure. Let's go over there and see how things go."At this, Simon quickly went out to arrange the car. Later, Jude and Simon both arrived at a hotel. It was all quiet inside, as though it was under lockdown. Jude had just walked in when Charles brought a large group of people out.Jude was stunned at the sight of this.As someone who had been in a high position himself, this used to be the kind of thing he did. Now that he was seeing someone else do it, Jude suddenly got a dissonant feeling. He also felt like the person in charge had changed."This way please, Mr. Morrison Senior." Charles led Jude to the second floor. Soon, they all arrived at the door to the presidential suite. Stepping insi
Kirk had long ago expected that Jude wouldn't approve. He turned to look at Jude and asked, "Why don't you approve, Uncle Jude?"Jude also noticed how exaggerated his reaction was. He explained, "I … What I mean to say is that it might be a little too hasty to divorce now. "I think you should give Daphne another chance. Get to the bottom of what's going on first. It would be bad if you're accusing her of this wrongly.""Uncle Jude, we caught her in the act. What else is there to explain?"Jude looked over at Daphne. He really hated her right then. He despised her for staying there like a brick, not even knowing how to defend herself.There was no way Jude could allow Daphne and Kirk to get divorced. Since Kirk was still married now, he couldn't openly pursue Caroline. But once he was divorced, he could use any methods he wanted to force Caroline to divorce her husband.When the time came, Eddy would have no chance of winning.Jude didn't want the regrets of the past to play o
