Sean was stunned. He found it hard to believe just what was going on in Mia's mind. He was so dumbfounded that he forgot to free his arm from hers. "Mia, are you sure about this?'Mia shushed him and took a few steps closer to him. "She's looking at you." A smile made its way onto Sean's face. "Really?" he asked, pleasantly surprised. "Yep." "Then how does she look? Is she upset?" "She doesn't look happy, alright." "So, it worked then?" "I think so," said Mia as she looked right into his eyes with a dazzling smile. Caroline's brows were knit tightly together as she watched Mia and Sean from afar. She cocked her head to one side to see Gwen walking into the distance. Then, she turned to Kirk, who was beside her. "What's Sean doing?"Kirk had been enjoying spending time with Caroline by his side. He was holding hands with her as they walked side by side, much to his delight. Hearing her mention another man's name—his good friend's name, at that—made him very displea

Kirk didn't know what the notification was about. However, he had a few guesses after seeing Caroline's reaction. He raised a hand to pat her on the back. "What is it?" She handed him her phone right after. Kirk glanced at the phone and said, "It seems like you aren't surprised at all." Smiling, she explained, "Sarah called me the day I was taken to the hotel to meet Brie. I didn't connect the dots then. With this, I finally know why Brie had been bold enough to do that. "She wasn't the one who took me there, so she knew she wouldn't have to take the blame if something happened to me." Yet somehow an accident had occurred, making Brie go nuts. Kirk took Caroline into his arms. "Are you upset?" he asked. Caroline shook her head and rested it against his shoulder. "A few days ago, Sarah came to me. She asked me to persuade Grandpa to agree to Eddy and Layla seeing each other. I wondered why she would act like that …"Then, she looked down at her phone and snickered. "I

Mia cast a miserable gaze at Kirk once again. Kirk put his hands in his pockets, his eyes cold. He had no intention of speaking up for her.Seeing this, Mia stomped her foot angrily and stormed off.Caroline frowned as she watched Mia leave. Then, Caroline put the money back in her bag.Kirk stepped forward and put his arm around Caroline's waist. He said, "Let's get some food."Caroline looked at the elevator and asked uncertainly, "Shouldn't we go check up on them?"Kirk smiled. "What are you going to do?""But I'm worried about them …"Kirk forcefully led her to the restaurant next door. "They're already adults. They can handle things on their own."Caroline didn't respond.Even when they were at the restaurant for food, Caroline was still worried about them. So, she packed some food for them and went to the hostel. When she arrived downstairs, she saw an ambulance parked at the entrance.Caroline had a bad feeling and hurried out. She saw Sean carrying Gwen down the stair

Caroline arrived at her apartment. She smelled a foul stench as soon as she stepped out of the elevator. The door to her apartment was covered in dung, and the walls were painted with the words "Caroline Evans, the disloyal daughter." The liquid from the broken eggs was flowing down the cracks in the bricks.The real estate manager was waiting for Caroline at the door. When he saw her, he covered his nose and walked over. "Ms. Evans, the police officer is in the office getting the surveillance footage."Caroline nodded slightly and opened the door. The inside of her apartment was clean. It looked exactly the same as it had before Layla had wrecked the place. Glancing outside the door again, Caroline felt as if she had traveled back in time to when Layla had trashed her house.The real estate manager said, "Let's go downstairs, Ms. Evans."Caroline looked away. Nodding slightly, she followed the real estate manager to the elevator. As the elevator doors opened, a white fig

Kirk didn't need Charles to finish speaking. He turned on his tablet, and a push notification about Sarah's accusation against Caroline appeared on the big screen.It was a video. It showed Sarah, who hadn't dressed up and looked haggard. She cried as soon as she started talking. "I know we shouldn't air our family's dirty laundry in public, but we really don't have a choice. Caroline has blocked us everywhere, so we can only communicate like this. I'm sorry for using the public's resources like this."Sarah wiped her tears away and looked straight at the camera. As if she were looking at Caroline, she put on a loving expression.She said, "Carrie, I know you're listening. You're already a married adult, so I don't want to keep pampering you. It would only do you more harm. You've never contributed to the family your entire life, but it's okay. As your mother, I should be supporting and providing for you."She paused briefly before continuing, "But how can you be so cruel to leav
