Bogus Billionaire Chapter 86
Since he'd gotten back, Sean had kept going out to look for good food.Early that morning, he was lazing at home, having breakfast. He still hadn't dug into his fresh croissants when the front door slammed open.That action was filled with rage, so Sean could tell that the person wasn't anyone nice.He put down his croissant. Before he could take a few steps, he saw an angry Kirk."What's up? Did you get into another fight with Ms. Evans?"Kirk cast him a look. His lips were flattened into a thin line.Sean pointed at himself. "Did I offend you?"That couldn't be right! When had he offended Kirk?Kirk's eyes narrowed as he kept silent.Sean really felt defeated. He handed Kirk a croissant. "There's nothing some croissants can't fix. If one can't fix it, have more."Kirk tried to keep his anger controlled. "Sean Yates."Sean sensed that something was amiss. He put his smile away."What's going on? How am I supposed to fix it if you don't tell me?"Kirk shot him a look but s

After more than an hour, Sean finally found out from Kirk that he and Caroline were giving each other the cold shoulder.Sean scratched his head. "... Did you give her the ring?"Kirk glared at Sean. "How was I supposed to give it to her under these circumstances?"Sean sat on the couch. "This is really weird. Did you do something to upset her that night she went to see you?"Kirk thought about it and replied, "No."That night, Caroline had even taken the initiative to bring him food."That's tough, then. A woman's mind is unknowable." Sean scrunched up his face. He'd dated a few women, but they'd all been casual flings.When it came to love and romance, he didn't have much experience.Kirk's gaze darkened. "Didn't you say I could get her in a month?"Sean replied, "Hey, don't rush. Aren't I helping you think of a plan?"Kirk's lips pursed into a line. He wanted to say he wasn't rushing but didn't."Right, you can check if there's something she wants done or an item she's be

The policewoman in charge of taking statements glanced at Caroline on the couch. She was quietly fiddling with her laptop.Layla and Caroline had just been in a fight, so they both had various injuries on their bodies.Strictly speaking, though, Layla was in much worse shape than Caroline.Caroline had quite a few scratches on her arms and face. Her clothes were torn. All in all, she looked wretched.It really did look like Caroline had started it.Right then, the team in charge of taking pictures of the scene finished their task. They approached Caroline. "I'm afraid the two of you will have to make a trip down to the station to aid in the investigation."Caroline looked at her laptop with a pained expression. "Alright."Then, the police officers took Layla and Caroline to the police station. Caroline had been placed in a room to wait. This was her first time at a police station. Now that she'd calmed down, Caroline noticed her hands shaking violently.After some time, s

Caroline followed behind Kai in a haze of confusion. With his hands in his pockets, Kai was confident as he asked Caroline, "What kind of outcome do you want from this, Ms. Evans?"Caroline thought about it seriously for a few minutes. "What's the worst sentence that could come out of a case like this?"Kai raised an eyebrow. When he looked at her, his eyes held some measure of admiration.He hadn't thought that the woman who was rumored to always run after Eddy Morrison was such a ruthless character."For destruction of property and initiating a fight, she could be jailed for a couple of weeks if proven guilty."Caroline smiled slightly. "With your capabilities, the sentence should be worse, right?"Kai grinned but didn't answer.Caroline straightened. "I have one last question.""Please ask away.""Who hired you?"Kai looked into Caroline's eyes. "I'm afraid I can't answer this."Before Kai had gotten here, his employer had warned him not to reveal the man's identity. Ka

Caroline followed him. "Do you need help?""There's no need." Kirk's motions weren't practiced. It looked like it was his first time cooking.A tablet by the hob was playing a cooking tutorial on repeat."Is this your first time?" Caroline was a little shocked.Kirk replied, "Yes.""I couldn't tell."Although Kirk seemed unaccustomed to it, he seemed competent. That was the most surprising thing.Kirk dumped the finished dish onto a plate. Caroline took the plate out and put it on the table. Then, she sat opposite Kirk."Have a taste."Caroline nodded and started digging into one of the dishes.After taking a bite, Carline laughed. "It doesn't look like much, but it tastes great. You're naturally talented."Kirk paused before serving himself a portion. His expression turned pleasant.Eating in harmony, neither of them talked about the police incident. Still, Caroline had already guessed that Kirk had been the one who'd hired Kai.Kai was someone not even the Morrison fam

Caroline wrapped herself in the bath towel and walked out hesitantly.Kirk was searching for some clothes with his chest bare. When he heard the noise, he turned his head around.Caroline swallowed. Kirk's figure was truly magnificent. He had broad shoulders and defined muscles. When she thought about it, Caroline figured that she wasn't losing out.She took a few steps forward and lowered her head in front of Kirk. "Let me help you change."He raised an eyebrow. He found it adorable that Caroline was curling her toes at this.He replied huskily, "Alright."As he said this, he handed the clothes he'd picked out to Caroline.Caroline kept her head down. She didn't dare to even look at Kirk. Her mind was buzzing, and she didn't know what to say.She guided Kirk's arms into the shirt's sleeves. At the shoulders, Caroline had to stand on her tiptoes.Kirk slowly bent over and lowered his head. Caroline's red lips met Kirk's jaw.She froze, her mind going empty.After a dizzy s

Eddy had already been unsettled when dinner hadn't been sent over last night. When he saw that Caroline was calling, he answered it without a second thought.He'd never answered her call so quickly before. It stunned Caroline as she made some mental notes. "Why haven't you sent my breakfast over?"Caroline frowned. She gave up on making mental notes. She immediately said mockingly, "You two are really a match made in heaven. One wants to put me behind bars, and one wants me to be his slave. I won't have it anymore!"He could eat if he wanted to. If he didn't, it would serve him right if he starved!Even using Jude's name against her wouldn't help him now.Eddy could feel Caroline's rage through the phone. He put down the phone, feeling totally confused. Caroline was obviously talking about Layla.He recalled Layla's phone call last night. She'd said that someone was bullying her and asked him to send Gordon over.Eddy had a bad feeling about this.He called Layla and aske

After finishing her call, Caroline went to the police station to get her laptop."The laptop has been completely destroyed," a policeman said. "I'm afraid it can't be fixed."Caroline frowned.There was only a week left before the competition's deadline. There wasn't enough time, even if she redrew the design.After some thought, Caroline still decided to head to a repair shop in the city center.There, the staff took one look at the laptop and said, "It's been completely destroyed. You'd better buy a new one."Feeling low, Caroline walked out of the repair shop. After a few steps, she heard someone calling her. "Ms. Evans?"Caroline looked back to find Sean waving at her by the road."What are you doing here, Dr. Yates?" Caroline cheered herself up and went over."I heard there's a restaurant serving authentic local cuisine around here." Sean fidgeted with his GPS. "But I can't seem to find it."Caroline moved closer to take a look. She laughed and explained, "It's in an a

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
