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

    Finn was a sly person. So it wasn't easy to deal with him. "How are things going on with Finn?" asked Sean.He only asked this after checking that Caroline was nowhere to be seen."Deployment has commenced."Sean continued, "What are you planning to do? He's a cautious person, and highly skilled people surround him. It won't be easy to take him out.""Who said I wanted to take him out?" Kirk countered as he lifted his gaze to meet Sean's.The latter was puzzled upon hearing that. "You …""He spared my life, so of course I'll spare his. But since he plotted against Caroline, I'll make him pay a painful price."Although Sean didn't know what Kirk was planning, he was aware the latter's words weren't an empty threat. "I heard that with Charles in charge of matters in Easton, SY Group's subsidiary has emerged as the market leader in various sectors. "These include new energy vehicles, communication equipment, real estate, and more. Not bad, huh?"At this rate, Morrison Corp's

    Unfortunately, her happiness didn't last for long. When Caroline passed the complete manuscript to Kirk, he said, "I'll bring it back to translate. Once I'm done, I'll have someone send it over."Caroline was at a loss for words. With her lips pursed, she returned to her room in a daze after Kirk's car disappeared into the distance.She had no idea what had happened. All she knew was that Kirk was deliberately keeping her at arm's length. She reckoned that uncovering her lost memories would make their relationship less awkward.After that, Caroline expressed her thoughts to Gwen. The latter was startled upon hearing that. "Carol, please don't let your thoughts go in that direction. Listen, Mr. Y will never ignore you."Noticing Caroline's confused expression, Gwen insisted, "Remember not to entertain such thoughts. Just live in the present and enjoy your life.""So do you think my current life is better than the one I had before I lost my memory?" Caroline inquired.Gwen th

    Caroline still had no concerns and said, "Sure! Let's go with that."After that, Gwen continued to chat with Caroline for a while before leaving. To her surprise, she saw Sean talking on the phone in the living room as soon as she stepped out. "I don't care how you do it. You just have to ensure that the lab is sorted out by Saturday! I'm resuming the experiments next week!" Gwen didn't know what the person on the other end of the line said. However, Sean, who was usually calm and nice, lost his temper. "Stop wasting your time talking with me! Solve this issue now!" he said furiously.After that, he immediately ended the call. He turned around and wanted to toss his phone onto the couch.However, he noticed Gwen on the second floor. Hence, he quickly suppressed his anger. "Are you leaving now?"Gwen hummed in response. "I'll take you back."Upon hearing his words, Gwen's lips parted. Yet, in the end, she merely uttered a soft hum.With that, Sean took his keys and drove G

    Gwen snickered, "You should tell Sean about this. There's no point telling me."Katie retorted, "Of course I'll tell him. I'm just afraid you won't stop pestering him."Gwen smiled. "You don't have to worry about that. I'll be returning to Easton in a few days. So I can't pester him, even if I wanted to. Unless …""Unless what?""Unless he goes to Easton with me."After hearing this, Katie laughed. "In your dreams! There's no way Dr. Yates would go back to Easton with you. He's already successful in Macldo. Why would he follow you to Easton and start over? Not even a fool would do that!"Although Gwen felt the same way, she still felt very uncomfortable hearing it from Katie's lips. "Since there's no way he'll follow me back to Easton, why are you still talking to me?"Katie was rendered speechless. She angrily grabbed her bag from the bed. "Just you wait. Dr. Yates will dump you soon!" Having said that, she glared at Gwen before striding away.As Gwen watched her leave,

    Although this manor wasn't as magnificent as Yates Manor, it had a simple and natural appearance, as well as great aesthetic value.The Emberlys' butler led Sean to the living room."Dr. Yates, Mr. Emberly is still working in his study. Please wait a moment," the butler said before leaving the living room. He didn't even ask anyone to pour Sean a drink.After over ten minutes, Solomon finally came downstairs. When he saw Sean, a look of surprise appeared on his face."Dr. Yates, what are you doing here in my home?" Solomon was tall and handsome. Although his face showed signs of aging, he still had a youthful charm.Sean went straight to the point. "Mr. Emberly, I was told you shut down my laboratory."Solomon remained impassive. "Your laboratory has been shut down, you say? Why didn't I know about this?"Sean didn't mince words with him. "Mr. Solomon, we might as well be honest with each other. What do you want?"Solomon smiled slightly at Sean's words. "Since you've said that

    Since Sean had already exposed the truth, Solomon no longer beat around the bush. "That's right. If you want to restart the experiment, you simply have to convince Mr. Sterling to sell his land and marry my daughter." Solomon smiled to ease the tense atmosphere. "Dr. Yates, these two things are simple tasks for you. As long as you agree to do it, I'll let your lab continue its operations right away."Sean glanced at him. "Then, you can keep waiting." After saying that, he turned around and left.As Katie watched Sean leave from her spot in her room, she finally lost her composure and ran downstairs. "Dad …"The glint of anger was still present in Solomon's gaze. When he saw his daughter, he forced a smile. "It's okay. Everything is all right. He won't last long. If he can't reopen his lab, all his work will be in vain."Katie was worried. "But Dad, he didn't seem willing to compromise.""It's no use to resist. As long as he wants to resume his experiment, he has to agree t

    "Yes, of course, I'll do it. I wouldn't refuse anything you ask me to."Avery scoffed before striding away.Finn smiled knowingly.Then, his assistant walked in. When he saw what happened, he couldn't help but ask, "Sir, why are you … indulging Ms. Mendeley so much?"Anyone who barged into Finn's office without notifying him would have lost all their limbs by now. However, Avery was completely unharmed, even after barging into Finn's space again and again.Finn frowned. "You talk too much!"His assistant quickly lowered his head. "Yes, sir. I apologize."After saying that, he quietly met Finn's eyes. He noticed there wasn't any anger in his boss' gaze. Instead, he seemed to be lost in thought. Only then did the assistant sigh in relief.Sure enough, Finn was lost in his memories. He recalled the first time he had met Avery.Back then, he had still been with the Morrisons. As the eldest son, he had gained flattery from everyone he met. But Avery had been the only one who had

    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.
