"Why can't I?" Rosalind questioned.Rosalind looked at Aurora as if the latter were a fool. "Oh, thank goodness I found out about your problematic comprehension skills. If I hadn't found out before the filming commenced, it would have been too late. "Well, Marietta has never been imprecise, but her daughter is her only weakness. Even so, she shouldn't have given anyone the roles they wanted just to get her daughter back."Aurora tried to say something to salvage the situation, but Rosalind no longer had the patience to keep arguing with her. "You should hurry up and leave. If you don't, I'll have to call security."Aurora was, after all, a public figure and didn't want to cause too much trouble. When Rosalind said she would call security, Aurora quickly left.After the third floor became quiet again, Caroline nodded slightly to Rosalind. "Thank you, Ms. Winslow."Rosalind frowned. "Surely you don't think I refused to give Aurora the role because of you?""Of course not." Caroli

Marietta nodded slightly. She and Caroline were about to walk toward the door when they heard a slap on the table."This is good! It's very well-written!"Caroline and Marietta looked back at Rosalind at the same time.Only then did Rosalind notice Marietta. Before Marietta could greet her, she stepped forward and held Marietta's hand. "Marietta! You really gave me a good one this time! Caroline's writing style and mindset are quite similar to your younger self."Marietta smiled brightly at her words. "Right? I told you. She has the same spirit my younger self had."Rosalind and Marietta were both outspoken individuals. "Why do I have the feeling that Caroline seems more like your daughter? I mean, look at her writing style and habits …"Suddenly, everyone became quiet, and Rosalind realized she had said something wrong. However, she and Marietta had been friends for years. With a few laughs, the awkward moment quickly passed. Then, the two of them picked up Caroline's manusc

Aurora's eyes widened. "Go on."After getting encouragement, the agent spoke more confidently. "If the Hacketts publicly announce that they would invest in Collins Group, provided that Layla gets it, the bank would definitely take it into consideration. Then, they would definitely give it to Layla."Aurora frowned. "But why should I help her? We don't have anything to do with each other.""Remember." The agent approached Aurora. "Several companies that belonged to Collins Group are related to the entertainment industry. They managed to expand their reach so much in a short period of time because of SY Group's help, and SY Group belongs to Eddy's second uncle." The agent continued, "If you use SY Group to get connections, you don't have to worry about what happened today. Forget Rosalind; even if the director comes forward, you can ignore their comments."Aurora looked away silently, her eyes slowly lighting up with an idea....After Caroline and Marietta finished their meal,

The last time Caroline had felt this sad was when she had thought that Kirk had another wife. She was sad when she returned home."Darling …" Kirk handed Caroline a large bouquet of roses."Is today a special day?" Caroline was a bit surprised as she took the bouquet and smelled it."Today isn't a special day. I just want to make you happy, darling."When Kirk finished speaking, Caroline was surprised to find a necklace in the bouquet. "Well, this necklace gave me a surprise!""Of course." Kirk kissed Caroline's forehead. "Do you like it?""Of course. I like anything you give me." Caroline hugged Kirk's waist, nuzzling against him. "Did you find out Marietta and I were having our final meal together? Is that why you bought me some flowers and a necklace?"Kirk pinched Caroline's nose. He didn't answer her question. Instead, he picked up the necklace and said, "I'll help you put it on.""Okay." Caroline turned around happily, but a hint of loss appeared in her eyes.Marietta'

"The people I've sent have returned. They said they couldn't find any surveillance footage in the parking lot. "Apparently, the culprit is clever. He removed the surveillance cameras in advance. It's amazing how he could do this undetected. Eddy, do you have a suspect in mind?" Thomas asked, handing over the peeled apples to Eddy.Only then did Eddy return to his senses. A person immediately crossed his mind. However, he still didn't want to believe it was him."No."Thomas stood up and continued his analysis. "Seeing how capable the culprit was, he should be someone prominent. "At the very least, the culprit had to be part of the big four families. Now that the Collins family has fallen, the other suspects are—""Dad," Eddy interrupted Thomas impatiently. "I really don't know anything. Just ask your subordinates to investigate."Seeing this, Thomas looked at Eddy suspiciously. "Eddy—""I'm tired, Dad." Eddy slowly laid down with his back to his father.Thomas frowned. He

Sonia was clearly being humble. At that time, she wasn't just popular—she was famous. Everyone remembered this previously unknown actress.Cheryl thought about this and gradually calmed down. And just like that, this topic was over.Caroline asked, "Have you been filming abroad, Sonia?"Sonia replied, "Yeah, I really want to go home and reunite with you guys soon."Caroline texted, "Haha, are you filming 'Daughter of the Sea'?""Yeah.""Do your best. Once you finish filming, it will be your first step in making your mark overseas."Sonia hadn't expected Caroline to remember her promise. "Caroline, are you really planning to help me become an international star?""Since I've promised you, I won't go back on my word," Caroline said."Besides, after I take over Collins Group, I can take over their subsidiaries in the entertainment industry. When the time comes, it will be even easier to take your career to the international level."Sonia's eyes were slightly red from her encoura

"Yeah. I thought something was off when Marietta told me about it. But since she had just found her daughter, I thought she might have been too excited and remembered the details wrongly. "I remembered this while reading your manuscript the other day, so I asked someone to help me investigate. As it turns out, the Hacketts are now looking for their daughter.""How can this be?" Caroline still thought the situation was ridiculous. It was fine if they couldn't recognize a baby that was a few months old. But how could they not notice that a different person had become their child?Rosalind sighed. "I'm also racking my brain over this. Marietta has just found her daughter. If I tell her about this, she will definitely overthink things."Caroline, can you help her investigate and find out what's going on?""Of course." Caroline had long regarded Marietta's issues as her own."Then, I can rest assured. I can see that you really care about Marietta and aren't hankering after her fame

Although Kirk had a cold expression on his face, he tried to restrain his emotions and look calm when he looked at Michael.At that moment, Sean knew Kirk had listened to his advice so that he wouldn't put Michael under any pressure.Right now, Kirk was acting like he had acted a long time ago. He was calm and wise and wasn't swayed by anything. However, he was also acting differently than a long time ago. In the past, Kirk was more proactive, but now he was more passive. He had suppressed his more aggressive traits for Caroline. Sean sighed. As he was lost in thought, he heard Caroline's painful sobs from the consultation room.Beside him, Kirk also sprung into action. Sean quickly grabbed him. "Kirk, this is the only way. If you don't want to see Caroline suffer, you have to wait outside."Kirk's struggles gradually weakened at his words, and he looked at the consultation room gloomily. In the room, Caroline was frowning in pain. She was muttering unconsciously, seemingly r

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
