After Kirk applied the medicine to Caroline, she felt a chill in her neck. Feeling uncomfortable, she wanted to rub her neck, but Kirk stopped her."This medicine works really well. The wounds will be gone tomorrow. You wouldn't want your subordinates to see the marks on your neck, would you?"His words managed to make Caroline control her urge to rub her neck. Suddenly, she thought of something. "Kirk, there's something I need your help with.""Here." Kirk handed Caroline a flash drive.Caroline was stunned. "What's this?""This is the surveillance footage from the venue that day. It's proof that Yvonne attacked you first, and a shooter killed her, not you. Moreover, this flash drive also contains the outcome of the police's investigations. This should be enough to prove your innocence."Caroline said with a smile, "How did you know I needed this?"Kirk placed the flash drive on the table. "I saw what happened online.""Oh." Caroline slightly pursed her lips. She looked at Kir
Caroline hummed in agreement. Then, she looked down at the information of the other business partners.Even though she had handled Jacob, there were still a few tough nuts to crack. This would still be an uphill battle.After looking through the papers for a while, Caroline felt thirsty. When she looked up, she noticed that Cheryl was still standing there and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"Cheryl stared at Caroline, hesitant to speak. After a moment, she said, "Caroline, I'm wondering if we should clear up the situation with the murder first."Many executives have indicated that, because of this case, the business partners who were convinced to keep working with us have decided to go back on their word. If we clear things up, maybe those business partners would …"Caroline pondered for a moment before saying, "I understand your concerns, but Aurora isn't a pushover. I heard that she might get married to Asher, the Hacketts' heir, soon. She also has a significant influence on the
Cheryl quickly rushed to see Caroline when she saw Gwen's reply. "Caroline, Sonia has obtained the surveillance tape, but it has been wiped clean. We need someone to recover the lost footage."Caroline put down her pen. "Get someone to recover it as soon as possible. Once they're done, we can announce the truth."However, Cheryl looked at Caroline awkwardly."What's wrong?""Helena has already asked some specialists, and they said it will be challenging to recover them."Caroline frowned. "In that case, get someone else to try it. If there's really nothing we can do, I'll figure out another way."Cheryl asked, "Caroline, I heard Mr. Kirk is very proficient in things like this. I'm wondering if we should give the tape to him. Perhaps he can fix it."Caroline asked, "You're saying Kirk can do that?""Yeah." Cheryl explained, "Gwen says Mr. Kirk is very good at this."Caroline frowned, feeling some memories trying to emerge from her head. She grabbed the table. "He's very good at
The director and crew believed they should kick Sonia out of the team. But since Asher was investing in this drama and Aurora was his future wife, the director wanted to let Aurora play the villain.He thought she would be happy to play the role. After all, everyone could see that Aurora had been targeting Sonia. Unexpectedly, she had thrown the offer right back at them. She seemed to cherish her reputation."In that case, I'll discuss this with the others. I'll get out of your hair, Ms. Jenner."Aurora smirked, remaining silent.After the director left, Aurora's manager approached her and said with a smile, "Aurora, Sonia has probably gotten the surveillance tape by now.""Oh? So soon?""That's right. According to the other managers, Sonia's manager, Helena, has been asking people how to recover the footage all morning. How ridiculous! Even an idiot would know that it's impossible. We destroyed it on purpose, after all. It's fascinating to see them helplessly clinging on to hope
Caroline returned to the hotel after work with the surveillance tape Cheryl obtained. When she arrived at the door to Kirk's room, she hesitated for a long while. After mentally preparing herself, she finally plucked up the courage and knocked on his door.The door quickly opened, and Kirk appeared in his bathrobe before her. Caroline's face turned warm at the sight. His bathrobe was unfastened, exposing his abs and chest. The sight of his body ignited a flame in Caroline.When Kirk noticed Caroline's red ears, he realized something and fastened his bathrobe. "Is there something I can do for you?""Yeah." Caroline nodded. After glancing to make sure Kirk had properly put on his bathrobe, she walked in and said, "The surveillance tape Sonia found had been wiped clean. Cheryl said you're good at these things, so I brought it here. Can you recover the footage?"Kirk took the surveillance tape and glanced at it. "That's a simple job."Caroline's eyes widened slightly at his word
Kirk clearly didn't believe Caroline's words, but he still pointed to the bathroom.Caroline couldn't hold on any longer and dashed into the bathroom. As soon as she closed the door, she slid down the door, convulsing. The cold touch of the door on her skin made her body tremble.Her discomfort seemed to be coming from her chest. She tightly held her chest, biting her lip as she let the pain spread throughout her body. She didn't allow a single sound to escape her.But soon, her forehead was covered with sweat. It flowed down her cheeks and fell to the ground, drop by drop."Caroline!" Kirk's stern voice sounded from outside the door. "Are you really having an upset stomach?"Caroline slowly released her lips and replied wearily, "Yes. Kirk, can you buy some medicine?"Kirk frowned. After a moment of silence, he said, "Okay, I'll get some from downstairs."After that, the door slammed shut. When Caroline heard the door close, she sighed in relief. He finally left.Hissing, Caro
"Carrie." Kirk grabbed Caroline's hand. "I'm taking you to the hospital for a check-up. It won't take long."At Kirk's insistence, Caroline said, "All right. But I need to call the company's PR department first.""Okay, you can call them on the way there."Having no other choice, Caroline followed Kirk downstairs and headed for the hospital.On the way, she called Delilah. "How is your investigation going? Did you find anything to prove who's behind all this?"Delilah was still working overtime. When she heard Caroline's question, she said awkwardly, "Ms. Evans, we've discovered that the media companies that published the news are under Hackett Group, but they aren't directly affiliated with them. Instead, they are linked with them through a third party."Caroline frowned. After thinking for a moment, she said, "I'll give you another 12 hours. I want you to get the complete chain of evidence by 10:00 am tomorrow.""All right."After getting an affirmative answer, Caroline put h
Moreover, as soon as Caroline saw Kirk, the nurse told her that the medical report was out."You guys are incredibly fast." In astonishment, Caroline looked at the nurse and said, "Your hospital is really efficient. I should do my check-ups here from now on."The nurse smiled slightly at her words. They had to work fast. After all, Caroline and Kirk were important guests that the director had warned them not to neglect.The nurse wondered what their status was. They were so distinguished that the director had taken charge of this case in person. She quickly handed a stack of medical reports to Caroline.Caroline looked through them, and then she said proudly, "See? I told you I was fine, but you still didn't believe me."When Kirk saw her innocent, childlike smile, a smile finally appeared on his cold face. "It's good that you're fine. Let's go back.""Okay." Caroline nodded.…Caroline slept peacefully that night.Firstly, she was glad she had managed to hide her condition
