Bogus Billionaire Chapter 855
After Caroline left, the crowd dispersed. Betty didn't feel like playing poker anymore. So she dragged Marietta out to the garden to bask in the sun. "It feels so nice to be in the sun, especially at this time. It's so warm," Betty commented while squinting to see the sun. After a moment, she turned to Marietta, asking, "Do you know what's on my mind right now?"Marietta quietly stared at her, waiting for her to continue. As expected, in the next second, Betty said, "I'm thinking about Carrie."She added, "She always reminds me of the sun's comforting warmth. She has a way of bringing a sense of comfort to people.""You're right. Speaking of which …" Marietta replied while squinting. She seemed to have recalled a beautiful memory as a faint smile formed on her face. "For a while, I wished Carrie was my child. Unfortunately, that's just not our destiny."Betty, who was sitting on the recliner, immediately sat up. She glanced around. After seeing no one else was around, she a

"If this goes on, something will happen sooner or later. You're smart, so you should know it better than I do." After saying that, Betty gently patted Marietta's shoulder. Then, she sighed softly and left.When Betty entered the room, she was surprised to see Sean standing by the window. She clutched her chest before exclaiming, "You scared me!""How did it go?" Sean asked while looking out the window."I don't know. I have already shared my thoughts with her," answered Betty. She stared at Marietta's figure and couldn't help but let out another sigh. "She used to be such an energetic person. Yet she has become haggard because of her daughter. I wonder if bringing her daughter back was the right choice."Sean didn't respond. Right then, they heard footsteps coming from the stairs. They both turned around simultaneously and saw Caroline and Kirk descending from the second floor.Betty noticed Caroline's hurried steps. "What's wrong?" she inquired with concern. Just as Carolin

Sean was still complaining when they reached the airport.However, when he saw Gwen emerging from the crowd, he was overwhelmed with emotions. At the same time, he felt a surge of adrenaline."Gwen!" Sean couldn't believe his eyes. For a moment, he felt like he was in a dream. He rushed forward and tightly embraced Gwen. Only then did he believe it wasn't a dream but a reality. Gwen had finally come to the country where he had grown up! Meanwhile, Gwen was taken aback. She hadn't expected Sean to hug her in front of so many people.As more and more people looked at them, she blushed and hit Sean's shoulder. "Put me down first. Let me down! So many people are watching."After a while, he finally let go of her. With a mix of excitement and anticipation, he gazed at her. "Why are you here? Is it—""I'm here on a work trip. So I thought I might as well take the opportunity to visit Carol," Gwen replied. She noticed Sean's disappointed expression. Then, almost instinctively,

Betty's blood boiled with excitement.Sean introduced them to each other. "Mom, this is my friend Gwen. Gwen, this is my mom.""Hello, Mrs. Yates Senior."As Betty carefully looked Gwen over, her lips slowly curled into a smile. The more she looked at Gwen, the happier she became. In particular, she was pleased at how her son referred to Gwen as his friend. "Gwen, right? You must be tired after getting off the plane. Come in! Go get some rest."As Betty pulled Gwen into the house, Gwen turned back to Sean and the others for help. However, they simply smiled at her and didn't say anything."I'm going home now. Enjoy catching up with your best friend." Kirk gently patted Caroline's head. Ever since he had found out that Caroline wasn't averse to physical contact, he would touch her from time to time.Caroline didn't notice this, but Kirk did. She was unguarded against him. This discovery had been enough to keep him awake for several nights.Caroline watched Kirk leave before r

Betty couldn't believe her ears. Although she occasionally gave Sean verbal jabs, he was still her son. She knew very well how talented he was.Sean was a respected figure in the medical industry and was the best in his field. Moreover, he was from the Yates family. He was rich, handsome, and knowledgeable.It wasn't an exaggeration to say that there was a very long line of people waiting to marry him. But Gwen didn't want to marry her son?"Mom, just don't ask," Sean said, guessing what Betty's next question was. "I'll deal with this myself." Betty didn't believe his words. "Are you sure?""I would be a laughingstock if I couldn't even get a wife on my own."Hearing his words, Betty happily patted Sean on the shoulder. "All right, you have ambition, as expected of my son. If you have any problems, just let me know. I'll definitely help you.""All right, all right. I get it. You can leave, Mom." Sean pushed Betty out of the study.After Betty left, Sean shook his head helple

After a brief moment, the two of them collapsed on the ground, panting.Gwen leaned against the door panel. "You've gotten out of practice after being away for so long."Ignoring Gwen's mockery, Sean leaned on her shoulder. "How long do you plan on staying here?"Gwen's breathing slowly evened out. "I'll leave as soon as the project is complete." After a pause, she asked, "What's going on with Carol? She can actually meet Marietta now. Also, what's happening with Kirk?"Sean stared at Gwen intently.Gwen felt her heart pound at his gaze. "What's wrong?""I can't believe you're only asking about Caroline and not how I have been during this time." Sean's voice was gentle and soft, without a hint of resentment. However, it made Gwen feel like a scumbag."I … How have you been doing?"Sean smirked. He had a gentle look in his eyes, but they had a hint of cunning. "Not so good."Gwen asked, "Why not?""I thought about you every day, but I couldn't even see you. Did you think I w

Yvonne had returned home after getting humiliated by Caroline at the poker game. In a fit of rage, she tore all the clothes on her bed into pieces to vent her anger. After she was done, she remembered what Marietta had said on the way home.On the way, she had whined to Marietta, wanting her to help pay the ten million dollars. But to her surprise, Marietta had rejected her requests for the first time. She even said, "Yvonne, you're no longer a child. You need to learn how to take responsibility for your actions."The implication behind her words was clear. She wouldn't help Yvonne pay that amount of money.Yvonne had wanted to snap at Marietta, but when she had seen the latter's resolute expression, she realized she wasn't joking. If she and Marietta fell out, everything she had might be taken away.A fear that Yvonne had never felt crept into her heart, so she had no choice but to reluctantly agree, "All right, Mom. I'll figure this out myself."Now that she recalled everyth

By the time the Shadowers discovered that Caroline had been shot, it would already be too late.Yvonne found it hard to agree. "But after what happened last time, both Caroline and the Yates family have become more cautious. I don't think they'll show up that easily."A small smile appeared on Avery's face. "Ha! Caroline's best friend is here to visit her. I doubt she will decline an invitation from her best friend."Yvonne's eyes lit up at her words. "Then, do I need to do anything?"A hint of murderous intent appeared in Avery's gaze. "Of course. You need to …" After thoroughly explaining what Yvonne needed to do, she hung up the phone.Holding her phone, she looked over at Finn, who was smiling half-heartedly at her. She frowned. "Go on, make fun of me. I know you have plenty of comments about this."Finn put his legs on the table. After observing Avery, he said with a smile, "Oh, Avery, I won't make fun of you. Since I see myself in you, I would just be making fun of myself

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
