Therefore, Caroline had to find out. Otherwise, things would be troublesome if she ended up hiring an heiress.She wasn't worried about the woman's business capabilities. Rather, she was worried she might be a member of the Hackett family.Stephanie seemed to know what Caroline was thinking and explained, "Blake Harris from the HR department asked the same question. During the interview, she said that her family spent all their money on her treatment. Since she's better now, she decided to work to repay her family's sacrifices. "Oh, Mr. Harris also investigated her family situation, and things are as she said. Her family was in the metal business and were well off, but later on, their company went bankrupt. Many were surprised and wondered why the company closed when it was doing so well. It turned out they did it to treat their daughter."Caroline took the information Blake had found. After looking through it, she didn't find any problems with it and said, "So, she has zero c

Charles noticed Kirk was about to shove his head through the wall to hear the conversation next door. He wanted to tell his boss to go to Caroline's private room if he wanted to hear what she had to say, but in the end, he didn't dare to."We …" Caroline's smile visibly faded at the mention of Kirk. "Do you know Kirk is Eddy's second uncle?"Adrian avoided her gaze.Caroline was shocked. "D-don't tell me you already knew about his identity."Adrian explained, "I didn't mean to hide it from you, Caroline."Caroline froze for a moment, but then, she smiled slightly. "I got it. Did you guys already know his identity?"Adrian didn't want to answer her, but he didn't want to keep deceiving her either. "Yes, we knew his identity long ago. Everyone may have had reasons for keeping it from you, but we all had one reason in common—your wonderful relationship with Kirk. We couldn't bring ourselves to ruin it."Caroline said bitterly, "Our loving relationship was filled with lies. Do you

No matter which room Caroline moved to, Kirk could move next door in the next second."It's fine. My current room is pretty good. It's getting late, so I'll return to my room and get out of your hair, Dr. Fowler.""Okay." Jared watched Caroline leave.After Caroline left Jared's office, she walked to her ward at a snail's pace. When she walked into the corridor, she saw Charles snooping around at her door. She didn't know what he was doing.She walked over and asked curiously, "What are you doing, Charles?"Her voice startled Charles. "You're finally back, Madam! Please help me!"Caroline was perplexed. "What's wrong?"Charles pushed her toward Kirk's room and whispered, "Don't ask any questions for now, Madam. You can help me by having dinner with Sir."Caroline found his words baffling. She could help Charles by having dinner with Kirk, he said?"Charles, what on earth are you doing?" Caroline was confused.As he talked, Charles had already brought Caroline to Kirk. "Sir,

Kirk got out of bed, opened the door, and walked to the room next door.The door was still closed after Caroline had slammed it shut. It was quiet inside, and he couldn't hear a single sound. She was probably asleep."I'm sorry," Kirk whispered through the door. Only at this time could he be frank about his feelings.At this moment, Caroline wasn't asleep. Instead, she was sitting by the window, looking at the moon. Kirk's apology was too quiet, so she didn't hear him.Moreover, all her attention was on that bright moon, so she naturally wouldn't notice anything else. She just looked like the moon quietly until her eyes hurt. Then, she slowly lowered her head.A tear rolled down her cheeks, and she forcefully wiped it away, as if she wanted to get rid of the proof that she'd cried."Kirk, you bastard! To you, I was just …" Caroline hugged her knees, her body trembling even more. The leaves on the trees outside swayed in the night. And just like that, morning arrived.Carol

Caroline glanced at the documents Corrine was carrying.Only then did Corrine realize that Caroline had asked her a question. She quickly explained, "No, today's just the handover, so I don't have much work. But since I've joined the Evans Group, I have to know more about the company. So, I asked the heads of the other departments for some documents like the reports from the previous quarters.""I see." Caroline looked away. "We don't encourage working overtime. Since you're done with your work, you should go home. As for the company's situation, you'll gradually understand it after working here for a while.""Okay." After Corrine said that, she kept looking at Caroline.Caroline felt strange being looked at like that. "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?""No, I just think you're a wonderful person, Ms. Evans.""Wonderful?""Yeah. When I came in for work, everyone spoke very highly of you when they mentioned you. Honestly, this is my first time seeing a boss like you
