Chapter 231

Evans Group was the only reason why Dan and Sarah had been able to live a comfortable life so far. Meanwhile, Evans Group wasn't making any profit because these two were embezzling money.If Evans Group appointed a new CEO, they would lose their source of income. Besides that, they might even be thrown into prison if the accounts were audited."I … I'll go apologize to Caroline!" Sarah got up, feeling at a loss.…Meanwhile, in Thorne Corp's design department, Caroline was in a brilliant mood. She had leveraged her sob story and managed to sever ties with Sarah and Dan.She called Gwen and said, "Let's go shopping tonight.""Wow! Great minds really do think alike. I just watched the video you posted. I was going to call you, but you got to me first." If they had been together, Gwen would have hugged Caroline. Caroline had truly won this battle beautifully!"You haven't answered my question." Caroline laughed."Sure, sure. I'll come and see you once I get off work.""Alright.

Soon after, the car took off on the road again. After a short span of silence, Gwen remembered the topic they hadn't finished discussing. She was about to continue when she pointed outside the car in sudden excitement."Carol, look at that Faromish restaurant there, quick! That's the place Kirk and I planned for your surprise proposal."Caroline noticed that Jack's eyebrow twitched when Gwen mentioned Kirk again. But she was too hung up on the proposal and didn't ask about it."Where?""Right there." Gwen pointed toward the front. "Do you want to go and have a look? But I suppose the decorations must have all been taken down."Caroline replied, "That's alright. I can imagine it.""Then let's go have a look.""Okay."Caroline asked Jack to park by the Faromish restaurant. When they got out of the car, Caroline and Gwen realized that the restaurant wasn't open.Gwen commented, "What a shame."Caroline chuckled and walked to the door. The door was made of glass, so she could s

None of the staff members came over to where Daphne was. None of them even turned to look at her.Daphne immediately became enraged. It seemed true that the entertainment industry was very realistic. Daphne hadn't seen Kirk since dinner that night. Many people had quietly asked her for information, but she couldn't even come up with a picture of them both together. Thus, some started doubting whether she was really married to Eddy's second uncle and started treating her coldly.Daphne's manager approached her and said lowly, "Don't tell me that Mr. Morrison never contacted you again afterward?"Daphne was already in a bad mood. When she heard this, she gripped her cup and was about to throw a tantrum. Just them she heard rushed footsteps coming from outside."M—Ms. Dawson. The head of the Collins family wants to see you!"Daphne was stunned. She immediately recalled that Howard Collins had called her a few days ago. She became overjoyed. "Where is he?""He—he's right outside!

At the villa, Kirk had already heard from Jack that Caroline had seen the proposal surprise at the restaurant. "You're home?" He stepped forward to hug Caroline. "Are you hungry?" Caroline smiled. "I'm not hungry. Guess what I saw today?"Kirk played along and thought about it for a moment. "Hm … I can't guess."Caroline took out her phone and held it out to Kirk. "I saw the restaurant you decorated for the proposal! It's so beautiful!"Kirk smiled as well. He kissed Caroline's eyelids. "Did you like it?""I did. But," Caroline seemed regretful as she spoke, "I would have liked it even more if those roses were still in bloom.""If you'd like that, then I could …" Kirk paused. "Discuss with the boss about switching out the roses.""There's no need." Caroline allowed Kirk to hold her as they sat on the couch. She reached out to circle her arms around Kirk's neck. She said seriously, "You said something to me this morning before going out. You said you'd give me a gift. Did

In contrast, Dan gave a loud, cold huff. "Help us? Don't you think you've thrown us in enough hot water?"Layla replied, "Uncle Dan, Aunt Sarah, I know what you're worried about. You've taken quite a lot of money from Evans Group over the years. So you're worried that the new CEO will find out about it. Once the board's other members find out about this, they won't let you off!"Sarah's and Dan's expressions shifted. "You …"Layla only smiled lightly. "Don't worry, I won't tell people about this. I'm on your side.""What's the point of having you on our side?" Dan scoffed."Of course there's a point. Because I'll definitely be the next CEO!"Sarah and Dan exchanged glances with each other."Uncle Dan, Aunt Sarah, if someone else ends up in that position, they will definitely expose what you have been doing. But I won't. Because I need your help.""Our help?""That's right! You know my situation with Eddy the best. Although Eddy wants to marry me, Mr. Morrison Senior is still

Caroline could distinctly feel Kirk's displeasure. She guessed that he really disliked the fact that she still had ties with Eddy. Thus, she explained patiently, "Grandpa has always been good to me. I can't reject his invitation."Kirk smiled as he brushed Caroline's hair aside. "I'm not mad. It's just that Mr. Morrison Senior still cares so much about you, even though we're already married. Don't you find it strange?"Caroline was silent for a moment before sighing. "Actually, I've always wondered about it. Grandpa treats me with the kind of unconditional love that goes beyond being related by blood. Maybe I look like some relative of his who died young. Do you think it's possible he's so nice to me because of that?"Perhaps Jude's love for Caroline stemmed from that?Kirk smiled slightly. He had no desire to look into Jude and the rest of the older generation's affairs. But if Jude stepped too far …"Maybe. You could ask him about it tomorrow night.""Okay." Caroline nodded

When Jude looked over at him, Eddy no longer expressed rejection. He nodded lightly.Seeing this, Jude was relieved. He looked over at Simon. When Simon received the signal, he bent over and said a few words into Jude's ear. Jude laughed and said, "Carrie, the owner of this place is my good friend. He's asking me to take a look around. You and Eddy can wait for me here."Caroline could tell that Jude was giving her and Eddy a chance to be alone together. Before, Caroline would have been grateful for it. But now, there was really no need for it.Some things couldn't be forced. Plus, she already had a good man of her own.Jude didn't wait for Caroline's response. With Simon's help, he swiftly walked out. Once he left, only Caroline and Eddy were left in the private room.Caroline didn't want to talk to Eddy. She got up and stomped her feet. After a pause, she opened the door and got out.Outside the private room, the landscaping was very peaceful, with flowing water and thick s

Frowning, Caroline turned around to find that Eddy had followed her.Adrian also spotted Eddy. Faced with Osbury's most respected scion, he nodded indifferently. "Eddy.""When did you get here?" Eddy asked as he reached out for Caroline. He wanted to show that Caroline was his, but Caroline shook him off. She even moved to stand behind Adrian, obviously unwilling to stand with Eddy.Eddy was sure that she was doing this to make him mad. His gaze darkened as he looked at her in warning.Adrian must have noticed it, or perhaps he was only behaving absentmindedly, but he moved slightly to block Caroline behind himself.Even so, the brilliant smile on his face remained flawless. "I just got here. We should meet up sometime.""Sure." Eddy clenched his fists. To Caroline behind Adrian, he said, "Come here."Caroline didn't want to use Adrian as a shield. Thus, she walked out from behind Adrian. "Eddy, you seem to have forgotten once again that our engagement was called off a lon

Caroline bought some cold and fever medicine before rushing home. When she got there, she immediately went upstairs to look for Kirk. "Have you checked your temperature?" Caroline asked. Her tense expression cleared slightly when she saw Kirk looking as he usually did on the bed. She put her hand on Kirk's forehead to check the temperature.Caroline frowned. "You don't seem to have a fever.""Really?" Kirk smoothly pulled Caroline into his embrace."I tested my temperature three times. It was 100 degrees Fahrenheit all three times. Maybe the fever subsided because I took some medicine."Caroline was a bit suspicious. "Then let me get the thermometer and measure it again.""No need." Kirk buried his face in the crook of Caroline's neck. "You're my medicine. Since you're home, I'm not sick anymore.""It seems you really have a fever. You're even talking nonsense." Caroline pushed him away in a huff. "I was in such a rush to get back that I even forgot to tell Grandpa I was

When Caroline walked into the office, her colleagues seemed livelier than usual as they greeted her in a flurry. Nothing had changed, and yet everything had changed. Caroline played with the pencil in her hand, still thinking about Jack. He seemed like a loyal and honest man, not some bad person. But why had he lied about the company hiring him?She had wanted to ask him about it many times when she'd been in the car this morning. In the end, though, she didn't. After keeping it a secret for so long, Jack surely wouldn't just tell her so easily. If she asked about it, he would get suspicious. She had better wait until Adrian found her a private investigator to check it out.Speak of the devil. As Caroline drank some water, she received a text from Adrian. It read, "Found a private investigator. Free to come out and meet tomorrow night?""Sure," Caroline texted back. "Alright," came the reply.Caroline didn't respond anymore. Instead, she turned on her computer and started t
