They sat facing each other as they enjoyed the food in silence. Now that Gwen had obtained evidence, they decided on a date for them to return.Caroline and Gwen insisted on purchasing the tickets to go back themselves. Kirk and Sean had to find a way to get the right tickets so that all four of them could travel back together. This time, they learned from experience. Sean would persuade Caroline about it, while Kirk would talk to Gwen. It was a brilliant idea. Kirk hadn't even said anything when Gwen raised her hands in the air in surrender. On Caroline's side, though, Sean had to put in some effort to convince her to give him the details of the flight. He had a way with words, and she eventually relented. When they got on the plane, Gwen whispered into Caroline's ear. "Why do I feel like we've fallen into their trap?" Caroline fell silent at her words. In the middle of the flight, Kirk sat down beside Caroline and said, "Darling, there's something I want to discuss with

Mia's mother looked all anxious when she heard what Caroline said. "Did Mia cause you other kinds of trouble?" "Yes, indeed," said Caroline as she nudged Gwen. "When we were in Macovo, you said that it was Gwen who pushed Mia, right?" There was no doubt that Mia's mother remembered this. It was precisely what had drastically changed her impression of these four young people here. "To be honest, Gwen didn't push your daughter at all." Caroline spoke slowly and clearly. Mia's mother instantly turned to look at Mia doubtfully. "Mia?" Panic flashed across Mia's eyes, but she calmed herself down in the blink of an eye. "Mom, if Caroline insists that Gwen didn't push me, so be it." "What do you mean 'so be it'?" Gwen was pissed now. "I never pushed you!" Mia pouted her lips. "It's been a long time since it happened, so please don't bring it up anymore. If you think you didn't do it, we'll think of it as the truth." "I—" Utterly pissed off, Gwen felt like slapping Mia acro

What if the mysterious person was a love rival? What if that person had the same thoughts as Mia and sent her all those messages to sow the seeds of doubt between them so that they would quarrel and go their separate ways? Wouldn't that person get precisely what they wanted, then? But … it didn't make sense. If that person had made up nothing but lies, why would Kirk's status in Macldo be shown as "married"? Besides, Kirk had failed to give her a clear explanation. In fact, he was rather evasive when she brought this up. It could only be said that there was something off on both sides of this story. Caroline placed her hands on her head to sort out her thoughts. Soon, she managed to come up with an idea. She couldn't contact Dolly, so she might as well try to find out who this "wife" of Kirk's was. Caroline took out her phone to message Marina. Her finger stopped abruptly before pressing the "send" button when she was suddenly reminded of something. Caroline deleted

Gwen couldn't conceal her joy at the fact that her father had been beaten up. "What happened?" Caroline texted her back. Gwen was probably still asleep now, so there wasn't a reply after the message was sent. Caroline then clicked into Marina's chatbox but saw that there weren't any new messages. After giving it some thought, she sent her a voice message. "Do you have any news?" Marina replied almost instantly. "No. Wait for a little longer. Tell your friend not to worry, because I'll definitely find out who that man's wife is. —Marina" There was nothing Caroline could do but wait for Marina's findings. After freshening up, Caroline rushed over to her company. She was early today, so there weren't many people in the elevator. She pressed the button on the floor she wanted to get on. Then, right before she pressed the button to close the elevator doors, she heard someone call out, "Wait—"Caroline froze and waited until the person entered the elevator before pressing the butt

When they reached the first floor, Dan watched the doors of the elevator open slowly and felt himself calm down a lot. Once again, he pressed the button for the doors to close, which made Sarah wonder out loud, "Hubby, are you thinking of meeting that ungrateful brat again?" Dan sighed and told her, "No. You pissed me off so much that I almost forgot we could rely on Layla."Sarah cheered up at his words. "You're right! I've heard that Layla started her very own company just upstairs. She purposely chose the same design theme just to compete with Caroline," said Sarah. "Her company's PR team did a great job, and she managed to find herself the best of brand ambassadors too. I'm sure she'll win against Caroline." "Jude will agree to her marriage with Eddy by then," she continued. "After all, who would refuse such a brilliant granddaughter-in-law like her?" After listening to Sarah go on and on about this, Dan felt his mood improve tremendously. Indeed, businessmen like
