Chapter 975

Author: Shining Riviera
Looking up, Kirk noticed Caroline looking at him intently and stepped back. "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Caroline stared into Kirk's eyes. "I'm really curious about what you look like. Can I touch your face?"

After saying that, Caroline promised, "I won't peek. I just want to touch your face."

Seeing the desire in her eyes, Kirk couldn't bring himself to refuse. He looked out and picked up the eye mask beside the bed. "Are you sure you won't peek?"

"I'm sure!"

Caroline put her hand over her heart. "I swear I won't!"

Kirk said, "Cover your eyes with this."

"Okay." Caroline followed Kirk's instructions and put on the eye mask.

Seeing that Caroline was ready, Kirk took off his mask.

"Are you ready?" Caroline asked after waiting patiently for a minute.

Kirk felt both amused and petulant at seeing her impatience. He bent down to Caroline's level. "I'm ready."

Caroline stretched out her hand and touched Kirk's face according to the height she remembered.

    Caroline got up early the next day, and with Gwen's guidance, she arrived at the new company.Looking at the splendidly decorated Evans Group, Caroline felt as if she was in a dream. Although she had no memories of Evans Group in the past, this building was the same as what her parents had described.The extravagance of the building made even a brick on the ground seem priceless. Even her parents and relatives would miss the old days after seeing this."My parents must be happy I got Evans Group back, right?" Caroline mentioned Dan and Sarah.Gwen's expression shifted at her question. Thinking about how Caroline had already accustomed herself to Kirk's presence, she said, "Carol, many things have happened in the past year. Many people have changed, including your parents. If you believe me, remember this—your parents aren't good people. Also …"Caroline asked curiously, "What is it?"Gwen thought for a moment before saying, "Forget it. You don't need to know much for now. At a

    "When the future generation asks you about this, how will you answer them?"Caroline's words made the blood of several elderly shareholders boil with excitement. They had never enjoyed glory and wealth. Their reputation was the most important thing to them.If they really failed, at least they would have tried. It wouldn't be embarrassing if word about that got out. If they succeeded in withstanding Morrison Corporation's attack, their fight would definitely become a story passed down for generations."That's right! We're not cowards! So what if the Morrisons are the top family in Easton? It doesn't mean they can push us around!""I also think we should fight back! We have lived for a long time! We've met tons of people and endured a lot of hardships!""That's right! At worst, we'll just retire. We won't starve to death in this era. Let's fight against Morrison Corp!"As Cheryl listened to the shareholders' passionate words, she couldn't help but look at Caroline with envy. If

    After leaving the conference room, Gwen approached them nervously. When she saw Cheryl signal that all was well, she felt her heart return to her chest. But she still asked, "How did it go? You had a meeting with the shareholders on your first day. How do you feel?""It isn't as difficult as I thought. It seems like I've had countless meetings like this. Now, I really want to know what happened in the past year. I feel like every part of me had changed during that time. "It's awe-inspiring. In particular, I'm now fighting against Eddy. Can you believe that, Gwen?"Gwen said with a smile, "I can't believe that was more than a year ago. Well, it's almost time for me to go to work. What are you doing to do next?""I'm going out soon. Since your office is on the way, can you wait for me?""Sure."Gwen waited at the door for five minutes before she saw Caroline carrying a big bag. "Why are you bringing such a big bag?""It contains information about each partner company. I plan to

    So Caroline wore a confident smile as she handed over her business card to the secretary before her.The secretary said regretfully, "I'm sorry, Ms. Evans. Mr. Mitchell's schedule is full today."Caroline asked, "What about tomorrow?""It's also full.""What about the day after tomorrow?"The secretary smiled slightly. "Uh, I'm really sorry, Ms. Evans. Mr. Mitchell's appointments are fully booked for three months. If you really want to see him, please make an appointment with him three months in advance."The food company was mid-sized at best.Since Evans Group was now part of the big four families' ranks, it was considered extremely large. Usually, people from these minor companies would bust down the door looking for the owners of such large companies.However, Caroline had come here to see him instead.Yet she wasn't angry at all. Instead, she said patiently, "But I checked Mr. Mitchell's itinerary today. At this time, he should be meeting with the person in charge of an a

    Caroline spread out all the documents on the table. "Last night, I watched all your company's advertisements overnight. Do you know what the biggest problem is with these advertisements?"Mr. Mitchell asked casually, "What is it?""You don't highlight the features of your products."Mr. Mitchell scoffed. "Ms. Evans, if I recall correctly, you don't specialize in advertising. Am I right?"Caroline smiled slightly and continued nonchalantly, "I may not specialize in advertising, but as the CEO of a large company, I need to dabble in various industries. Even if I'm not an expert, I know a good advertisement when I see one."She continued, "Your company has always worked with Charm Vista Advertising for advertisements. "They had dominated the market two decades ago, but their ranking in the industry has continued to decline over the years. Have you not thought about that, Mr. Mitchell?"Mr. Mitchell sat up straight. "Not only are you saying there's a problem with my company, but yo

    Still slightly frightened, the secretary sighed and said, "So, we're innocent bystanders caught in the crossfire then.""What are you talking about? Eddy won't make things difficult for us as long as we don't work with Caroline," said Mr. Mitchell. He had only just finished speaking when the phone started ringing. The secretary hastily answered the call. "Hello, this is Jacob Mitchell's office." After listening to the person on the other end of the line for a while, the secretary's gaze fell on Jacob, as if expecting a response."Who's calling?" asked Jacob. "It's from the Morrison family—" The secretary was cut off by a smiling Jacob, who immediately took the phone. His attitude was totally different than when he had been with Caroline just now. In addition, the exaggerated smile he wore after learning the other caller's identity made it clear that he was trying very hard to please them."A-Are you really Eddy's second uncle, the president of SY Group?" Jacob exclaimed.

    Soon after she left the Mitchell family's F&B company, Caroline received a call from Kirk. "What are you doing?" asked Kirk, although he already had an answer. "I'm getting ready to head over to the next company," Caroline told him. "I see. How did things go with the first company?""The head of the company is a stubborn man. It'll take some time." "You can have your employees do this for you if you're tired," Kirk suggested. After all, he had tricks up his sleeve to make those companies agree to cooperate with Evans Group, even if they weren't willing to do it. SY Group had quite an influence in Easton these days. Just like he had done with the Collins family, Kirk felt that they stood a chance of toppling the Morrison family as well."That won't do." Caroline laughed. "If I don't show up at a time like this, no one will be willing to work for me anymore. That's why I have to handle these people myself." If she could settle things with just one of these companies, it w

    Cheryl was dumbfounded when she heard that Jacob Mitchell had been so easily persuaded. He had even given the green light to renew their contract.It took some time for Cheryl to snap out of her daze and say, "Okay. I got it." Caroline said, "You can handle the contract. Tell me right away if you face any problems. I'm hanging up then." "Caroline!" Cheryl frantically stopped Caroline. However, she didn't know what to say and could only stand still with the phone in one hand. "What's wrong? Is something the problem?" asked Caroline. "N-Nothing. It's not related to the contract. It's just that …" Cheryl paused, not knowing how to explain further. "Did something happen at the company?" Caroline asked. "No," said Cheryl eventually. "It's about you." "Me? Nothing's happened to me, though." "I'm not sure about it either, but there was news online that Yvonne Hackett was killed overseas," Cheryl said. "Lots of comments claimed that you were the one who killed her, and it s

    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
