Just then, someone knocked on the door. "Excuse me, is someone in there?"Caroline glanced at the door and caught a glimpse of the pair of shoes under the door. "Yeah." "You're Ms. Evans, right? Your fiancé said that you've been in here for quite some time already. He asked me to check if you're okay," the woman said. "Are you okay? Do you need help?"Caroline didn't respond. Gwen heard the woman’s voice on the phone and smiled helplessly. "You should head back." "I know," said Caroline. "Just remember what I told you. Don't think about anything else, okay?""Okay," Caroline replied, her tone meek. After hanging up, she opened the door to see a kind-looking old lady standing by the door. "Hello." The lady greeted Caroline with a smile. Caroline greeted the lady out of common courtesy. She hasn’t expected this to be the start of a very long conversation with the lady, who couldn't stop complimenting Eddy as she grabbed Caroline's arm and led her out of the washroom.

The concern in Eddy's eyes tugged at Caroline's heartstrings, and she said, "I'm fine. Let's go.""Okay." Eddy reached out to hold her hand, but she dodged him as if it came naturally to her. "About the old lady just now …" she stared. "Oh. I waited for you for some time outside, but you didn't come out," he explained. "So I asked her to go in and check on you. What's wrong?""Nothing. She told me lots of nice things about you, so much so that I thought you had paid her to do it." The smile on Eddy's face faltered. Stunned, he stared at Caroline until she turned around to face him, puzzled.Only then did he snap out of his daze and hasten his footsteps to catch up with her. "What did she say?" "Nothing much." Caroline didn't feel like bringing up the topic. "I'm tired, Eddy.""Okay. We'll talk about the details of the wedding tomorrow then." "The wedding? So soon?" Caroline stopped abruptly in her tracks. She had thought that the wedding would happen only after a m

At the last moment, Kirk still held back his punch, so his fist only grazed Sean's nose.Having dodged a bullet, Sean patted his chest. He looked at Kirk incredulously. "Kirk, are you—"Kirk looked coldly at Sean, silencing him immediately. He threw away his boxing gloves, jumped out of the boxing ring, and headed for the changing room.As Jack watched Kirk leave, he couldn't help but move closer to Sean and whisper, "Dr. Yates, what should we do now? Are we just going to let him spiral even further?""What else can we do? Do you have any better ideas?" Sean asked helplessly.Jack sighed, "I never thought sir would be hurt in a relationship.""He's also a human, you know." Just as Sean sighed, he spotted Kirk, whohad already changed his clothes and walked out of the changing room.Sean quickly approached him. "Are you going home now?"Kirk didn't answer him. He simply walked toward the door. Sean and Jack were worried about him and followed him into the car.Fortunately, it wa

Jack and Sean looked at each other. Finally, Sean said, "She will.""As in, she'll marry Eddy soon?" asked Kirk, looking up at the two men.Just like that, the room fell into silence."I know she has forgotten the past, and she doesn't remember me at all. Right now, she only remembers the person she wants to marry … "I'm also aware that I can't blame her for all this because I made the choice to let her forget me. I know that very well." Kirk's tone became heavier, and the other two men were speechless.He asked, "I just want to lose myself in the moment, even for a second, so that I don't think of her. Can't you fulfill this wish of mine?"Sean and Jack looked at each other silently. Then, they sat next to Kirk."Since you want to drink yourself silly, we'll keep you company." Sean picked up a bottle of alcohol. "I don't know how to help you get over your sorrow, so I can only be there for you as a friend."Jack also opened the bottle, saying proudly, "Sir … you don't hav

Jack quickly glanced at Kirk. He said hesitantly, "I—""She asked you to come over, right?" Kirk said.Jack remained silent."Go ahead. I'll be safe here." Kirk took another sip of his drink.Judging by his current state, safety wasn't exactly the issue at the moment."Are you outside?" Jack heard Cheryl's voice again. "Since you're busy, I won't disrupt your plans.""No!" Jack blurted out. He scratched his head. He was in a difficult position."Go ahead," Kirk said again."There are so many people here. Nothing will happen if I'm here."Jack frowned. He hesitated and momentarily struggled with his decision, but he still chose to see Cheryl. "... All right, sir. Make sure not to wander around. If anything happens to you, Dr. Yates will never let me hear the end of it.""Just go. It's not like I'm a toddler or something."After seeing that Kirk was still in the mood to joke, Jack finally left with peace of mind.With Jack gone, Kirk was the only one left in the private r

The door was pushed open with a loud bang. Kirk raised his head and looked at the door. When he saw who had arrived, he was momentarily stunned. Then, he shoved the glass bottle at his neck.Seeing this, the newcomer barged into the room and kicked the bottle out of his hand.However, Kirk didn't give up. He picked up another piece of broken glass and tried to stab it into his neck. "Fine, do it if you want. If you're dead, I'll have one less rival."The man's voice made Kirk stop. He looked up at the newcomer, who was none other than Adrian.Taking advantage of his distraction, Adrian snatched the glass shard from Kirk's hand. He looked down and noticed the wounds on Kirk's hands. Kirk’s skin had gotten cuts from the glass.He wordlessly took a towel from his bag and tossed it at Kirk.Kirk glanced at him, but he didn't accept the towel.Adrian sat down opposite him and ignored him. He simply sneered, "You have big balls, don't you? If you don't treat that wound, it'll ge

"What other choice do I have?" Kirk took a deep breath and said self-deprecatingly, "I can't just storm the wedding, let her see me, and cause her immeasurable harm.""You don't have to take such extreme measures." Adrian ignored Kirk's tone. He frowned in thought and then said, "I do have an idea, but I have no idea if you would—""Tell me!" Kirk gripped the wine bottle."It's simple. You just need to take Caroline away." Without waiting for Kirk to agree, Adrian continued, "Easton is Eddy's domain. He can do whatever he wants here. "But that isn't the case abroad. If you take Caroline out of the country, she can start a new life there."Kirk stopped fiddling with the wine bottle."You also think it’s a good idea, right?" Adrian could tell Kirk was tempted by his idea, and he continued, "The only problem now is how to take Caroline abroad without Eddy finding out. Of course, we'll have an easier time if we can get Caroline to cooperate."He continued, "But since she ha

Kirk slowly curled up his body, and just like that, he spent the night in the private room. He woke up from the cold several times, but he continued to sleep in there anyway. He even kicked away the blanket the bar owner brought for him.He was torturing himself to ease his suffering. Eventually, the sun rose amidst his self-torture, and he groggily dragged himself up.Next, he had to face his suffering with a sober mind. When he took out his phone and saw several missed calls from Caroline, his heart skipped a beat. He immediately dialed Caroline's number.At that time, Caroline was absentmindedly discussing the marriage with Eddy. She had tried to call Mr. Y yesterday, but no one had answered. So she had sat on the balcony alone, thinking about Gwen's words.She was sure that she didn't want to marry Eddy anymore. She didn't know why, but a voice in her head repeatedly told her she couldn't marry him."... Mr. Eddy, when the time comes, the hotel will be at …"The burden we

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
