Unfortunately, no one answered the call. In haste, Layla remembered that someone must be working at the bank right now, so she quickly called the bank. Her call was answered almost immediately. "Where's Mr. Donovan? Pass him the phone right now!" How could something like this happen? The man must have a death wish. The staff member on the other end of the line sounded confused. "Mr. Donovan? Nobody here goes by that name." "What?" Layla roared into the phone. "Does he think he can hide for all eternity? Tell him that I'll fire him if he doesn't answer my call!" The staff member was flabbergasted. Still, he replied, "Miss, there's no 'Mr. Donovan' here.""Oh right." He seemed to remember something. "The former chairman's surname is Donovan, but he's been sacked. Just call his number if you have any other questions." With that said, the staff member hung up, leaving Layla staring blankly into space. A while later, a thought occurred to her, and she picked up her phone

"Eddy, you can't treat me like this! You can't … Even if you have no feelings for me, I'm still your savior. You wouldn't have lived to this day without me. You can't treat me like this."Eddy hung up, his face expressionless. Indeed, Layla had saved him once back then, but he had repaid her kindness a lot of times too. He didn't want this to carry on anymore. It was fine if she wanted him to give her money or help her search for a suitor. He couldn't care less about her anymore. Right now, all he wanted to do was be together with Caroline. He had finally realized just how much he loved her. He loved her so, so, so much.He couldn't lose her. He had to take her out of Kirk's grasp. Meanwhile, Layla collapsed onto the ground after suffering multiple blows from the truth bombs Eddy had said. Seeing her reaction, everyone around her knew that the matter regarding Collins Group was now set in stone. There was nothing she could do to change it, so they left her alone in the room.

Kirk couldn't resist it when he saw Caroline pout. Still, he managed to hold himself back with his last ounce of rationality. "I can't accompany you there, darling," he told her. "I have something important to attend to on that same day.""What's so important? What's more important than me?" Caroline turned away from him so that her back faced him, her lower lip protruding as she sulked. She had hoped against hope that she could introduce him to everyone during the handover ceremony. Alas, Kirk just wouldn't give in. She was so mad at him for it. Then, Kirk put an arm around her waist and nuzzled her neck. In his low and raspy voice, he muttered, "Naturally, everything about you is most important to me." "But I hope that the ceremony will go perfectly. I don't want to ruin it and make you regret anything later on," he added."You not attending it will be my greatest regret!" Caroline was fuming already. Kirk stared at her and found himself at a loss for words. Noticing

Kirk didn't wait for a reply after sending the message. He simply looked down at Caroline in his arms. Her brows were furrowed tightly, which made him wonder what she was dreaming about. "No, it isn't me. I didn't …" she murmured. This wasn't the first time Kirk had seen her frown and mutter in her sleep. His heart broke a little every time this happened. Despite what he felt, he could only hug her tight to give her some warmth. It was a good thing that Michael had prescribed her some medicine. Otherwise, she would have nightmares every other day. Now, she didn't wake up from fright like before. Soon, she fell into a deep slumber once again. Now that Caroline was sleeping just fine, Kirk could finally close his eyes and fall asleep himself. Early the next morning, he saw Eddy's reply. "The Gruidae. See you at 9:00 pm." Eddy had sent the message last night. Kirk narrowed his eyes at the screen and was about to put his phone down when he noticed Caroline getting up from the

"Uncle Kirk." Standing up, Eddy took the initiative to greet Kirk. The latter sat opposite Eddy with a face devoid of emotion. "Have a seat."After taking a seat, Eddy suddenly thought of something and wanted to stand up once more. However, the thought struck him as childish, so he swallowed his frustration and sat in his seat. He only spoke after he had calmed down. "Why didn't you tell me? Why did you keep it a secret? Did Grandpa know this long ago …" The longer Eddy spoke, the less inclined he was to carry on talking. In the end, he simply glowered at Kirk and said, "You're my uncle! How could you do this to me?" To Eddy, Kirk was like the sun in the sky that had guided him all along. He never thought that the rays from the sun would one day scald him and burn him alive. Kirk simply stared back into Eddy's eyes. Slowly and elegantly, he took out a cigar and lit it up."Getting married is personal. Why should I inform you about it?" "But you married Caroline! She was m

This time, Kirk's words stunned Eddy to the very core. "We—""There's no 'we' here," Kirk scoffed, his voice harsh. He spoke as if he were a higher being who looked down on the foolishness of mankind. "You reaped what you sowed and made Caroline hate the Morrison family. And now I'm the one who has to bear the consequences of your actions!"Kirk's hands balled into fists, and the corners of his lips turned up slightly in a sneer. "Do you really think you have the right to question my decision about hiding the truth from her?" His dark eyes stared right into Eddy's, making the latter feel as though he were enveloped by darkness. The feeling of dread made him feel suffocated, and he subconsciously trembled at Kirk's gaze. A while later, Kirk said, "I know that I'm at fault here. That's why I'm trying to make amends now.""Uncle Kirk, please divorce Caroline," Eddy pleaded. "Give me a chance, will you?" Shooting up from his seat, Kirk kicked Eddy in the chest. Eddy was caug

Michael had long gotten used to Kirk's behavior. As an expert psychologist, and based on his observations lately, he found that Caroline was the only person who could affect Kirk's mood. After listening to Kirk explain Caroline's condition, Michael pulled out a chair and gestured for him to sit. "I conducted a meeting with several other psychologists after hypnotizing her last time," said Michael. "We agreed that the best solution for her for now is to undergo hypnotherapy.He continued, "If we hypnotize her for the second time, some things may go out of hand. It's because the person who hypnotized her back then employed a rather peculiar method during the process. "That's why she can't remember anything about her past at all. But we don't know the method that they used."Frustrated, Kirk asked, "What do you plan to do?""We have two ways to solve this. The first one is to use electroshock therapy. The strong stimulation can make her forget Mr. Morrison Senior's death," Mich

Quentin broke into a smile and said, "I'll tell you about Yvonne first, then."He continued, "I found out that she had indeed been adopted from an orphanage. "But she was taken away from the orphanage in just a couple of months. It doesn't match up with what you told me about Ms. Weiss' daughter." "Is it possible that she joined the Hacketts only when she turned five or six years old?" Caroline asked, even though she felt that the possibility wasn't that high. "That's possible," Quentin said. "I've looked into it. After she was taken away from the orphanage, the Hacketts' nanny took her to the countryside. "The Hackett couple only visited her occasionally, and she went to live with them when she was around five or six years old."Caroline had never expected her assumption to hit the bull's eye. "But I still think that this all sounds ridiculous. Even if they had seldom met, they shouldn't have mistaken their daughter for another five-year-old." "We're on the same page,"

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
