Caroline had woken up when Anthony and Ethan had come in. She had heard parts of their conversation, but she wasn't sure of the details.After putting everything together, she was sure that Mr. Y had ordered his men to protect her. If it hadn't been for her, he wouldn't have been in danger the previous night. She had been the enemy's real target. Kirk thought Caroline's expression seemed normal, so he guessed that she hadn't overheard anything regarding his identity. He immediately felt relieved and said, "You must have misheard.""I did not," said Caroline, lowering her head. "I nearly got scared to death last night. I couldn't believe that I would be rescued so quickly, but I understand now. There were people protecting me from the shadows."Kirk sighed softly. Sometimes, he wished that she wasn't so smart."Tell them that they don't have to protect me," said Caroline as she looked up at him with a serious gaze. "I won't be able to forgive myself if something bad happens

Betty only found out about what had happened to Caroline when she got home. She wanted to visit Caroline at the hospital, but once she heard that Caroline was okay, she listened to Sean's advice and waited until the next morning.When she arrived at the hospital the next day, she saw Kirk watching over Caroline lovingly. She smiled and whispered to Gwen, "Sean's right. This is a great opportunity for Kirk and Carrie to spend time alone. We would have disturbed them if we had come last night."Gwen smiled, but she said nothing. "Why aren't you two going inside?" asked Sean.Sean had come back with some water, only to find his mother and his girlfriend peeping in through the window in the door. He had decided that he could refer to Gwen as his girlfriend for now since she didn't seem to have any objections to the title. His loud voice made Kirk and Caroline realize that they had visitors. They quickly looked away from each other, and Caroline blushed. On the other hand, Kirk

Earlier, Sean had seen the words "International Short Story Association" on the flyer. The organizer wasn't a profit-seeking group, but professionals who were searching for short story writers. Their aim was to bring short stories back to the public eye. It was true that they made use of Mareitta's fame to hold the contest, but the organizers weren't nobodies. Perhaps Betty didn't want Caroline to feel pressured. Caroline said, "Then … I guess I'll take part in the contest?" She looked at Kirk while she spoke and only broke into a smile when he nodded slightly. "The deadline is the 15th of next month. I still have more than 20 days left. I'm sure I'll be able to finish writing a good story by then," said Caroline. Everyone smiled when they saw the sparkle in Caroline's eyes. Gwen, who had known Caroline the longest, was especially happy to see her looking so driven and empowered again.…Only when sunlight shone on Marietta's face did she realize that she had been sitting

Yvonne gazed at Marietta aggrievedly and said, "Mom, what's the matter? You look as if you've seen a ghost. Did something happen?"Then, she suddenly remembered all the things she had done behind Marietta's back, and her heartbeat quickened. Marietta waved a hand and said, "I'm fine. I'm just tired because I stayed up all night." Yvonne didn't seem bothered and said, "I'll let you get some rest."As she watched Yvonne leave, Marietta's suspicions arose again. She couldn't help but think that if Caroline were here instead, she wouldn't have left Marietta so coldly after knowing that she had stayed up all night. Caroline would have gotten her a glass of warm water and asked her if anything was wrong. The email Marietta had received last night had disrupted her reality mercilessly.It made her notice things that she hadn't noticed before. For example, Yvonne had never taken the initiative to get closer to her, although it had been so long since she had taken Yvonne under her

"It's not that she's untouchable, but the person behind her is formidable," Avery answered while gripping the armrest tightly. "As long as we separate her from that person, she'll be nothing more than a moldable lump of clay at the mercy of others.""Who's the person behind her then?" Yvonne asked nervously.After all, this individual had repeatedly saved Caroline from a deadly fate. Yvonne knew they must be influential. She couldn't help but wonder if it was the Yates family.However, Caroline was only linked with the Yates family because Sean was pursuing Gwen, who was Caroline's best friend."You don't need to know that," Avery replied, her tone firm and stern. She added, "Do you know that Caroline is planning to participate in a short story competition? And are you aware that Marietta is one of the judges?"Yvonne had never cared about what Marietta was doing. So, of course, she had no idea about the short story competition. "I want you to join the competition."Yvonne

In Adrian's room, the heavy curtains were drawn, leaving no trace of light. Only the glow from his laptop screen illuminated his eyes. That was how the person on the screen knew he wasn't asleep."I still can't fathom why you insisted on giving Yvonne's information to Marietta. The current investigation details indeed suggest that Yvonne might not be her daughter."But we don't have concrete evidence to prove that. What if someone switched back the child who had been swapped before?"On the laptop screen, Quentin held a glass of wine as he casually chatted with Adrian. It seemed like he was attempting to pique the latter's interest. Even so, Adrian remained engrossed in his emotions. He continued to pour himself a drink and down it. Quentin thought it was getting pointless. So, he set down his glass, saying, "Hey, Mr. Sorkin, can you please not put on such airs?"You're the one who asked me to come online. I sacrificed my precious sleep to accompany you. It's fine if you don'

Yet Adrian paid no attention to Quentin's shock. He continued to pour himself a drink. …Since Caroline needed to focus on writing her short story, the task of preparing for the banquet fell on Gwen and Sean. "Which time do you think works best?" Gwen asked while holding the calendar. She looked through the dates, trying to pick the most suitable day.However, Sean fixed his gaze on her rosy cheeks. In the heat of the moment, he couldn't help but feel like biting them. "Hey, I'm talking to you. Are you listening?" Seeing that Sean was distracted, Gwen poked his abdomen in displeasure. He immediately returned to his senses."Whatever day you think works," Sean replied with a smile as he embraced Gwen's waist. Gwen was unhappy with his answer. "How can you be so perfunctory? From now on, Carrie is like your younger sister."Suddenly, Sean leaned close to Gwen's ear and whispered, "I would definitely be serious if we were picking the day for our wedding."As he spoke, his h

Troy Hall was the director of the Environmental Protection Bureau. He was stunned upon learning from Sean that the latter's laboratory had been shut down."Dr. Yates, please don't worry for now. I'll immediately call someone to find out more," said Troy.Sean was a brilliant doctor. Not only was he highly valued by the president of Macldo, but Yates Corporation was also a formidable company. Moreover, he was close with Kirk. All of these factors made Troy anxious.He hurriedly called his subordinates to inquire about the situation. In no time, Troy found out that the lab had been closed on Solomon Emberly's orders."That's ridiculous! He's just a diplomat. What right does he have to shut down someone's laboratory?" Troy exclaimed angrily.Troy's subordinate responded, "It seems like Ms. Emberly has liked Dr. Yates for a while now, but her feelings have not been reciprocated. So, in a fit of anger, she asked Mr. Emberly to shut down Dr. Yates' laboratory.""Isn't that even more
