Chapter 826

Author: Shining Riviera
Despite being removed from his followers, Yvonne had a good friend who was following Adrian on Twitter.

Her friend didn’t know about the complicated relationship between Yvonne and Adrian. So innocently showed her phone to ask Yvonne who was the ‘friend’ he had mentioned in his post.

Just by hearing the name of Caroline, Yvonne heard a low hum in her mind.

After she saw the post, she lost it and consequently smashed all the bottles on the table into pieces.

The commotion naturally drew attention to her.

"Get lost! All of you!"

Seeing this situation, everyone escaped out of fear.

The room became completely silent in an instant.

But at this moment, the sound of heels treading on glass rang out in the room.

The sharp sound drove Yvonne even crazier.

"I said get lost, didn't I?"

"Venting doesn't help to change the reality. You should take the initiative if you wish to change the situation." A cold voice echoed in the room.

Finally, Yvonne looked up.

    After Yvonne left, a man in the room spoke with a husky voice, "That woman didn't notice me despite I was here for a long time. Are you sure that stupid errand girl can kill Caroline for you?" It was Finn.He had come there with Avery. With the black clothes he was wearing, he blended into the darkness perfectly. No wonder Yvonne hadn’t been able to spot him.Hearing what he said, Avery sneered and looked up. "I'm not using her. To me, she’s just a bait."She was just a bait to lure someone, who would actually perform the task, out.Finn put on a mysterious smile and said, "How about Eddy? He adores Caroline so much. If he finds out that you intend to kill her … Aren’t you afraid he'll turn against you?""Oh, c'mon." Avery jeered at him. "He’s just like a kid who didn't get his toy. Yes, he adores Caroline. But I bet he doesn't have that kind of courage to put himself and the Morrisons at stake just for her."Finn lightly tapped on the face mask. He neither agreed nor obje

    Kirk was so familiar with Caroline's every detail, that even the slightest sigh from her could trigger his keen senses.His back stiffened. "Carrie, can you please move slightly away from me?"His heart skipped a beat the moment he said the word "away".This was when Caroline realized she had unwittingly leaned in too close to him."Oh." She blushed and moved backward.The air was still.Suddenly, Caroline broke the silence. "I'm sorry, Mr. Y. It was unintentional. I just felt that you have pretty eyes, and I've seen them somewhere."After he heard what Caroline said, Kirk stood up immediately. "I'm leaving.""Now?" Caroline was puzzled, wondering if it was because Mr. Y was offended by her action just now."Yeah." Kirk's tone softened, seeming to understand Caroline's worries. However, he had already turned away, avoiding letting Caroline see his eyes. "I have to go back to work now.""It’s already late at night, yet you still have to work?""Yes, I'll visit you when I'm

    Yvonne sat on the riverbank with a cup of coffee in hand. She checked the time, and when the minute hand struck 12 o’clock, she raised her head just in time to see a tall and muscular man sit down opposite her.He seemed rather brutish and gave out some kind of scent. His hair was a mess, making him look as though he hadn't showered in ages. What was worse was that he had the audacity to pick at his toes right before Yvonne. She wouldn't have been here if it weren't for …Yvonne swallowed her disgust when she remembered what she was here for. Still, her brows were tightly drawn together. She took out a stack of photos and handed it to the man, whose eyes lit up almost immediately when he saw them. He looked just like a predator who had just found its prey. There was even a strange and ominous light in his eyes. Judging from his reaction, Yvonne was sure that what she had in mind would go according to plan. "You'll be handsomely rewarded once you get rid of the woman in

    Yvonne strongly believed that the man wouldn’t go easy on Caroline when he got his hands on her. He was like a ravenous beast that hadn’t tasted meat for a long time. It would be better if he could help Yvonne get rid of Caroline once and for all. These vicious thoughts kept on swirling in Yvonne's head.Out of the blue, a woman's voice pulled her out of her daze. "Yvonne, what are you thinking about? You look like you're in a trance."Shocked, Yvonne almost jumped from her seat. She looked up to see Marietta staring at her, and it made her panic. "N-nothing." "What's wrong?" Marietta asked, her voice laced with concern. "I can take you to the hospital if you're not feeling well."I've been busy with work these days. That's why I didn't have the time to spend with you." Marietta sounded apologetic.Marietta had just completed a short story. So she had only just realized how much time had passed when she finally snapped out of the fictional world and back into reality. She

    Marietta started imagining what it would be like when she met Caroline later on.Yvonne's face darkened at this, but her gloomy expression was soon replaced by a smile. "Sure. Caroline and I can chat for a bit so I can start over and get to know her again." Yvonne linked arms with Marietta and added, "Besides, you keep telling me that she's not the kind of person I think she is." Delighted, Marietta beamed. "Yvonne, you've grown a lot! I'll let you take care of inviting Caroline over to our house then." "Okay," chirped Yvonne. She would do her job perfectly. She would arrange things so that Caroline would meet the psychopath of a man when she came over. …At the mental health clinic, Caroline had been waiting anxiously for some time. Finally, it was her turn to get a check-up. In truth, Michael had asked her to get a check-up to see if Kirk's appearance would affect her mental state. Of course, she didn't know that, though. The staff merely told her that it was going to be

    Sean's brows furrowed. "You're saying that she's so fragile now that she can't get hurt at all?" "Yes. Even the tiniest of things can cause her a lot of pain," said the psychologist."I get it." Caroline returned soon after Sean and the psychologist were done talking.Sean bid the psychologist goodbye and took her home. When they reached Yates Manor, he excused himself by saying that he had work to do. Then, he slipped into the study to call Kirk and tell him about the check-up. Kirk's emotions were all over the place when he heard the news from Sean. Despite that, the worry he felt was completely replaced by the joy of knowing he could stay by Caroline's side with his mask on. Besides, they were in Macldo. He was familiar with the place, so he had full faith in himself that he could protect Caroline well. "I'll head over tonight," Kirk said. "Kirk, you're being much too impatient," Sean teased. Just then, he heard someone knock on the door. "I'm hanging up. Just head o

    Night fell. On the second floor, Caroline looked down to see a familiar car come into sight. She darted down the stairs like an exuberant child. She wanted to see Kirk.Betty smiled helplessly at such a sight. "Careful," she said. Her eyes filled with envy as she nudged Sean's arm. "Oh, to be young."Sean knew what Betty was going to say next. He wasted no time in stopping her. "Stop, Mom. I know what you're going to say. Don't worry, I'll bring a wife home soon."This was the first time Sean had given in to her nagging, which gave Betty quite a surprise. She wanted to ask him about it, but he quickly hushed her by putting a finger to his lips. In the end, Betty could only bury her curiosity and turn to look at Caroline. The sight that met her stunned her. It was as though it had popped right out of a drama. Caroline stood in front of Kirk with the rays of the sun basking her in warm, golden light. Although Kirk was wearing a mask, Betty could somehow tell that his gaze was br

    "Yes, all of them," said Kirk nonchalantly. Sean knew what this could lead to, so he couldn't agree to it. "You can't do that. You're giving Finn the chance to strike. Don't forget that he's after SY Group now." Back then, Finn had had his eyes on Ivan's company. After Kirk had found out, the two of them had parted ways. In reality, Finn was an orphan, but Ivan had adopted him and brought him to Morrison Manor. No one had expected Finn to be a cruel and cunning wolf, despite his young age. He had been eyeing Ivan's wealth ever since he had moved into the manor. If he found out about Kirk moving all his men to protect Caroline, he would surely make a move. After all, it wasn't the first time he had played a trick like that. "Caroline mustn't get hurt.""But you can't protect her if you lose SY Group either!" Sean seethed. Their voices attracted both Caroline's and Betty's attention."What's wrong?" Betty asked. She knew that the two men were good friends and that Sean us

    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
