Avery grinned, still covering her burning cheek. "You've finally shown your true colors. I will show Kirk how much of a vixen you really are." Caroline crossed her arms. "He knows what kind of person I am better than you. I'm just taking a page out of your book on being a two-faced crude."Avery took a deep breath. "You have a really accurate judgment of yourself." Then, she added, "At the end of the day, you're just suspecting that I'm involved in what happened at the swimming pool. But you don't have any proof, do you? Like I said, I'm not stupid enough to do something like this and make Kirk hate me."Caroline glared at Avery. If Avery was involved in the swimming pool incident, she was indeed terrifying. She was completely different from Layla, who usually played the innocent victim. Avery was intelligent and meticulous. She didn't leave any loose ends when she did something. However …A smile played on Caroline's lips. There would always be a trail, and Avery would ev

Caroline felt heat quickly spreading throughout her body. Feeling flustered, she asked, "Why are you being so indecent when I'm asking you a serious question?"Gwen covered her mouth and teased, saying, "I am being serious. Trust me, this method works every time. You'll definitely thank me after you try it."Caroline was dumbfounded.Gwen smiled merrily as Caroline hung up the phone quickly. But her joy vanished immediately afterward. She thought, "My dear friend …"Just as she was brooding, she saw a message from Sean. It read, "Are you free for dinner tonight?"Gwen froze. She hesitated for a moment, then closed the app immediately. She hadn't seen Sean since they had slept together last time. He seemed to be fine and would ask her out for dinner from time to time as if nothing had happened.Gwen was furious. Why was she losing her mind while he had completely forgotten about it? But it wasn't like she could just barge into his home and scold him. That would show that she c

Caroline frowned. She kept thinking that this woman was weird. Just as she was about to question the woman, Kirk's phone rang, diverting her attention.She turned to Kirk. He had already looked away from them and answered the phone. The call was from Ivan, and he sounded very serious. "Come and see Avery right away."Kirk refused immediately, saying, "I'm not free at the moment.""You have to come! Something serious has happened!"Kirk raised an eyebrow. He answered coldly, "Let her wait!"After he hung up the phone, the atmosphere became colder and quieter. Caroline could even hear a rattling sound. She looked at the woman in confusion again.The woman's face was pale, as if she were ill. Her boyfriend wasn't much better. His face was ashen, too. Just like that, their underwater adventure ended on a strange note. Caroline wasn't happy about it, so she suggested they take the ride again.This time, Caroline could finally enjoy herself since the couple wasn't around. She di

"Stop!" Ivan yelled. He was trembling, obviously very angry. "It's very simple. Someone leaked Avery's drafts for the game concept, and that too, to a rival company. Now, that rival company has registered and published the game first, making Avery's efforts in the past six months for naught."He continued, "After investigation, the company found that the email used to send the drafts to the rival company belongs to Caroline.""How could it be me?" Caroline was stunned. Then, she smiled and said, "Until now, I didn't even know what Avery's job was, let alone what the rival company is."Avery bit her lips, a hint of distress appearing in her calm gaze. "I—I don't know. Anyway, the email the company found was yours. To tell you the truth, I don't believe it either. But the facts are right before me, so I must accept the truth."Caroline was genuinely impressed with Avery's superb acting. The entertainment industry was missing out on an actress like her."Okay, at the very least,

In the surveillance footage, Kirk asked Caroline to leave. When she left, she happened to brush past Avery. The gap between them was so small that they couldn't see anything at normal speed, but they could see everything when Avery slowed down the footage. When Caroline brushed past Avery, she quickly reached into Avery's bag and took something away. If Caroline hadn't properly looked at the video, she wouldn't have noticed. At this moment, she finally understood why Avery was so calm. She had already tampered with the surveillance footage.Avery wasn't only cunning, but more importantly, she had the skills to back it up. She was a formidable rival.Caroline smiled brightly and asked, "Are you done watching the video, Ms. Mendeley?" Avery bit her lip, glancing at her mother. Lia was squinting at the surveillance video, but she hadn't noticed anything.Avery had no choice but to slow down the footage again. "Not yet. Let me watch it again."Caroline smiled slightly.At th
