Early the following day, Caroline woke up and told Sean

Sean read the news article and noticed the problem as well. So, he told Kirk about it while Caroline wasn't paying attention.

Kirk quickly found out that the articles were from a media company, Crystal Clear Media.

Crystal Clear Media was a media company under Finn's company. In other words, Finn was the one who had deliberately released these news reports.

"Isn't Finn insane for pulling something like this?" Sean asked.

When Finn had gone after Kirk before, Sean had known that it was because of their grudge. But now, he had involved Caroline in this too. That was too much.

Kirk said, "It's not like you've just met him."

Sean was silent for a moment.

"What about the thing I asked you to consider yesterday?" Kirk asked.

Sean said, "I-I can't bring myself to do it."

"All right. I'll come up with another idea."

Sean sighed in relief. "Thank you, Kirk."

After a pause, he asked angrily, "What are you going to do about Ca

    "I know." Caroline smiled slightly. "But no matter who you're upset at, you have to eat. If you don't, you won't have the energy to deal with the problem. Right?"Sean looked up at Caroline. "You do have a point." As he talked, he walked to the table and picked up his spoon.Seeing that he was about to eat, Caroline didn't intend to stick around any longer. "Take your time. I'll leave you be."When Sean saw Caroline leaving out of the corner of his eye, he quickly stopped her. "Wait, Caroline.""What's wrong?" Caroline turned around, looking at Sean curiously.Sean pursed his lips. "I want to thank you. Thank you for telling me everything about Gwen."Caroline smiled at his words. "You don't have to thank me. Like you, I want Gwen to let go of the past and move on.""Do you think I'll succeed?" Sean looked down and spoke softly, without a hint of hope in his tone."Anything is possible with earnestness and sincerity," Caroline said with a smile. "Gwen isn't a cold-hearted p

    "I don't know the specifics, either. When I woke up this morning, I took a look at the news and saw that Caroline's information was being exposed." Speaking of this, Gwen glanced at Caroline. "Other than that, the netizens are cursing Caroline. They're calling her arrogant and shameless for thinking she's as good as Marietta."Sean said, "Give me your phone."Gwen hesitated for a moment, but she stepped forward and handed Sean her phone.When Sean took her phone, her fingers inevitably brushed against his. Then, she quickly pulled her hand back, as if she had been shocked.Caroline was far away from them, so she didn't notice this minor episode."In other words, someone is targeting me." Caroline asked Gwen in distress, "Gwen, do you know who's targeting me?"She had studied abroad for some time, so she might have offended someone. However, with so many people in Malcdo, she couldn't figure out who the culprit was.Gwen mused, "I think it might be Yvonne. She had targeted yo

    "I've already asked Mr. Y to help me translate it," Caroline explained."Oh, so he helped you with that. That means you're playing to win.""Of course." Gwen hugged Marietta's arm. "I'm sure Carol's writing will be the best."After hearing her words, Caroline couldn't help but chuckle. "You're praising me too much, Gwen.""You're my best friend. Who am I supposed to praise if not you?" Gwen whined, grabbing Caroline's arm and swaying side by side. But when she noticed Sean's eyes on her, she stopped smiling. She turned her head, avoiding his blatant stare. "By the way, Aunt Mary, since you're here, you should look through Carol's writing for her.""Sure," Marietta agreed readily.Then, the three of them walked upstairs."Gwen," Sean called out from behind. Only then did the women remember that Sean was there, too. They turned to look at him."Stick around for a moment. I have something to tell you."Gwen looked at Caroline hesitantly.Caroline said with a smile, "Aunt

    "Do you want to hear the truth or lies?" Sean frowned.Gwen turned her head away, not meeting Sean's gaze. She feared that her resolve would be shaken. "What is this truth or lie that you speak of?""The truth is that I don't want to do it. I can give up my laboratory."Gwen turned around and asked, "Why?"Sean didn't answer her. "You didn't let me finish."Gwen remained silent."The lie is that I'll agree to his two requests for the sake of the laboratory." Sean walked toward Gwen, his tone laced with pain. "Gwen, what do you think I should choose?"Right now, Gwen didn't know where to look, and she kept backing away. "I don't know. I really don't."Sean grabbed her hand. "After I agree to these two requests, I can open my laboratory and find out who's targeting Caroline behind the scenes. "If I tell you that, would you ask me to agree to the two requests without hesitation?"Gwen raised her head, about to agree. But when she saw the sad smile on Sean's face, she finally

    Back then, the DNA report had clearly stated that Yvonne was Marietta's daughter. Had something gone wrong at the hospital?It was unfortunate that Caroline had lost her memories from the past year or so. Otherwise, she might have been able to answer Marietta's questions."Aunt Mary, are you thinking about what Gwen said?" Caroline's voice pulled Marietta away from her thoughts."No, I'm not thinking of anything.""Please don't lie to me, Aunt Mary."Since Marietta had been standing at the door at that time, there was no way she hadn't heard what Gwen said. She just didn't want to make things awkward.Seeing how things had reached this point, Marietta didn't see a point in denying it anymore. So she said, "Carrie, you don't have to worry about my feelings. Just answer me based on your intuition. Do you think all this is Yvonne's doing?""Aunt Mary, you don't have to take Gwen's words to heart. Besides, I've only met Yvonne a few times. I can't just jump to conclusions about wh

    The next second, the door opened, and Yvonne entered the room in high spirits. "Mom, I want to show you something."Marietta forced herself to cheer up. "What is it?""This is the short story I wrote. What do you think?""Have you started writing as well?" Marietta finally regained her spirits. She took Yvonne's manuscript and looked through it a few times before frowning. "Why does your writing remind me of someone else's writing style?"Yvonne's heart skipped a beat at her words, and she resisted the urge to get her manuscript back. "No way. I wrote this myself."Marietta took another look at the manuscript and felt that strong sense of familiarity once more. However, she didn't have the energy to think about it now. "Why did you suddenly think of writing a short story?" "You're going to be a judge in the short story competition, right? Since I'm your daughter, everyone will definitely doubt my lineage if I can't even write. So I might as well take the chance to participat

    The conversation between him and Gwen earlier that day crossed his mind."I've always thought I had a place in your heart, but I now realize that my place in your heart will never be comparable to Caroline's. Scratch that. My place in your heart will never be equal to hers."Since Gwen cared about Caroline so much, she would definitely feel bad that her friend was being demeaned online. She probably felt the way Sean was feeling right now. He felt sympathy for Gwen."Will you stop tossing and turning?" Kirk, who had endured Sean's fussing around for a long time, finally couldn't resist saying something.Sean sat up from the couch. "Kirk, can't you delete all the insults directed toward Caroline?"Kirk glanced at him. "Do you think I don't want to? "Sean was rendered speechless. His mind was getting muddled. The situation in Macldo was different from Easton. In Easton, the Morrisons were considered the ones on top.But in Macldo, Finn's company had started to rise through th

    When Sean visited Solomon's manor this time, he was in a completely different mood compared to the last time. Back then, he had come here to inquire about his situation. But this time, he was here to negotiate."Haha. I knew you would be back, Dr. Yates. Sure enough—" Solomon stretched out his arms to hug Sean.However, Sean coldly avoided him. "Mr. Emberly, I'm not here to reminisce but to give you an answer.""Oh, have you changed your mind, Dr. Yates?""I wouldn't say that. I can agree to your first request and help you convince Mr. Sterling to sell his land. However, I'm afraid I can't agree to your second request."Solomon's expression shifted, and he held back his anger. "Why? Is my daughter that bad?""It's not that she's bad as a rich girl, but I only want Gwen," Sean said word for word.Solomon snorted, "Dr. Yates, you should know better than me that love won't help your career in any way."Sean endured his anger and held back his rebuttal. He sat down and said, "I'l

    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
