Chapter 613

Author: Shining Riviera
Kirk was very efficient. They moved back to the villa in less than a day.

When Caroline came home from work, she was surprised to see the living room and kitchen neatly tidied. "You tidied all of this up so soon! How many people did you hire?"

Kirk smiled and suddenly raised his voice, "Ms. Carter!"

Caroline turned her head in confusion. Then, she saw an older lady walking out of the bathroom. The lady was in her early 50s and wearing an apron. She seemed to be cleaning the house.

"Who is this?" Caroline asked curiously.

"This is Edith Carter. She'll be our housekeeper from now on. She'll handle our daily necessities, so you don't have to work so hard."

Caroline pulled Kirk aside and asked softly, "How much are you paying her?"

She didn't care about the money, but she was worried about Kirk spending his money.

"Just one thousand dollars a month. It's not a lot of money, but I can still afford it."

Kirk stroked Caroline's head. "I just don't want you to tire yourself out, dar

    "Yeah, we're doing this for a new beginning. Let's have a look." Kirk pushed Caroline into the master bedroom.The redesigned master bedroom looked the same as always. However, it had a very relaxing atmosphere.Caroline wanted to lie in bed and enjoy the night in peace. She rubbed her temples. "It doesn't feel like the layout here has changed a lot, but it gives off a completely different feeling than before.""Maybe it's because I placed an aroma diffuser on the bedside, bought some plants, and also changed the ceiling's design …" Kirk pointed to the ceiling.Caroline looked up and realized that other than the ceiling, the entire room's color was different. "When did you start making the changes?"He couldn't have completed such a big task in one day."Some time ago, when we were still fighting." Kirk hugged Caroline from behind. "I wanted you to see a new and different living space when you came back here. All of this will be brand new, just like our new beginning together

    The Morrisons had long been looking forward to Caroline bringing new life and increasing the family's numbers. That was why Edith had worked hard to make a nursery for Kirk and Caroline.Wasn't it foolish of Kirk to get rid of that room? Even if they didn't need this room now, they would need it sooner or later."Sir, listen to me—""I'm ordering you to get rid of it!" Kirk's expression was already grim.Caroline returned to her senses and gave Kirk a soft smile. "No, it's okay. Did you do this, Ms. Carter?""Yes." Edith dared not look at Kirk, so she answered Caroline's question. "Madam, do you not like this room? I can change it if you don't." After being yelled at by Kirk, Edith had already forgotten what Caroline had just said."No, I like it very much." Caroline smiled gently. She turned to look at Kirk and whispered, "I really like it. I mean that."Kirk's expression noticeably relaxed at Caroline's words. He said to Edith, "Head back downstairs."Edith was still conf

    Simon had bought a photo of Kirk in a secret market overseas, and it was a very clear photo.After getting the photo, Jude had been eager to call Caroline. He wanted to catch Kirk off guard so that he would have no way to defend himself.Caroline groggily massaged her temples. "Grandpa, I didn't go to work today."Jude was stunned. "You're not at work? Then, where are you?""I'm at home. Is there something urgent you need from me?"Jude's nervous tone instantly softened. "Oh, haha. It's not an emergency. I just miss you. Why don't I come visit you at your home?""No problem." Caroline gave Jude her address.After Jude heard it, he mused, "Aren't your parents staying in this district? Do you live there too?"Jude had bought Sarah and Dan's house for them, so he clearly remembered where it was. As far as he knew, the houses in that district costed a lot. Caroline had always said that her husband was just a regular worker. A white-collar worker wouldn't be able to afford a vil

    More than an hour later, Jude arrived at the villa.Caroline personally went to greet him at the door. "Welcome, Grandpa.""I hope I didn't make you wait long." Jude observed everything around him and asked casually, "Is your husband at home?""He went to work. Sorry, Grandpa. You said you wanted to come over for a meal, but I still haven't been able to make time for it." Caroline scratched her head in shame. She had been busy meeting with Marietta, so she hadn't had time to arrange a meal with Jude and Kirk."Oh, it's all right. We can have a meal any time. I know both of you are busy, so I came here to visit. In fact, I don't need to see your husband. As long as you're living happily, I can rest assured." Jude walked towards the villa as he spoke, "All right, why don't you show me around?"Caroline nodded and led Jude into the villa. Meanwhile, a pair of angry eyes watched the villa from a place no one could see. After the two entered the villa, Jude looked around. Altho

    "Great. You still remember me." Howard pressed the gun against Caroline's head. As he laid his eyes on her, he had the urge to tear her apart piece by piece. However, that wouldn't change anything.At the thought of this, Howard coldly glared at Caroline.Caroline took a deep breath and tried not to anger Howard. "Things have already happened. Killing me won't fix anything. Why don't you think about what I can do for you?" As she spoke, she glanced at Edith, who had secretly called the police, from the corner of her eye.Edith's actions gave her the confidence to handle this situation. She hadn't expected Edith to be able to stay calm in the face of danger."You can't do anything for me!" Howard's angry voice drew Caroline's attention back. "What do you think you can do? Because of you, my daughter went insane, and my wife is in jail! I even lost my company! You tore my family apart! I want you to experience that same feeling."Caroline was about to say something, but Jude b

    Caroline noticed their expressions and continued, "He's … my husband's former boss. "The reason why he wanted to help me is complicated. Simply put, he almost made me and my husband get divorced. So he helped me because he felt guilty."Howard asked uncertainly, "Are you telling the truth?"Caroline sighed, "I have no reason to lie to you. Think about it. If I was close with Eddy's second uncle, would I still have had to beg for help with Evans Group?" Caroline's words convinced Howard, but not Jude, who knew very well that Kirk wasn't a good person. Even if Kirk had caused problems in Caroline's marriage, he would be happy to see it happen. In other words, he couldn't have done this to make it up to Caroline and her husband.However, Jude couldn't deduce Kirk's reasons for helping Caroline, especially not during a dangerous moment like this.Howard guffawed. "I don't care if you're close with Eddy's second uncle. Anyway, one of us has to go. I have nothing to be afraid of."

    When Caroline saw Kirk, it was as if she saw a ray of hope. "Kirk! Help me save Grandpa! He got shot …"When Jude saw Kirk, his pupils shrank, and he raised a trembling hand. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't.Kirk could probably guess what he was going to say. After a moment's hesitation, he picked up Jude and strode toward the door. As he walked past Howard, he kicked him hard.Howard had just recovered from the shock of killing Jude. When he looked at Kirk, who had walked away, he asked uncertainly, "I-Isn't Caroline's husband just one of the employees of Eddy's second uncle? What is he doing here?"Charles, who happened to walk past Howard, immediately laughed at his confusion. "Who told you that the madam's husband is sir's employee?"Howard quickly raised his head and immediately recognized Charles. "A-Aren't you Mr. Kirk's secretary? Why are you also here?"Seeing how pitiful Howard was and how that he had no hope of surviving, Charles mercifully decided to h

    As time passed, little by little, Kirk saw Caroline staring blankly at the doors to the operation theatre. After a brief pause, he grabbed Caroline's cold hand and kissed the back of her palm. "I'll get you some food. Just stay here and call me if anything happens."Caroline nodded with red eyes. After Kirk left, she felt the walls closing all around her. She felt a chill run down her body, as if she was stranded in a blizzard with nothing to protect her.The memory of Jude falling down before her crossed her mind repeatedly. She couldn't resist hugging her knees and uncontrollably thinking about the worst. If anything happened to Jude, Caroline wouldn't be able to atone for her crimes, even if she died.Jude was the first person who had ever treated her sincerely. She had long regarded him as her own grandfather.At this moment, anxious footsteps echoed in the corridor. And soon, they came closer."What's going on? Why did Grandpa end up in here?" Eddy had rushed over to the

    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
