After checking a few times, she confirmed that it was the same email address as the Rosebow Contest’s
Caroline’s expression changed. She clicked on her recently sent emails. There, she saw the design that had been sent from her email.
At the same time, Susan entered the office next door.
She exclaimed, “Viv, your idea was simply too wicked! Using Caroline’s emall to send your entry to the Rosebow Contest was brilliant!
“Once the maller slews, you can announce that it was your deslun and frame Caroline for plagiarism. Considering how much the company prioritizes its repulation, Caroline will definitely be fired.”
Vivian smirked. “I’m sure that idiot must still be confused. She probably has no idea that this is a trap.”
“What can she do even if she finds out? This is checkmate. The email was sent from her account. Unless she can prove that she didn’t
send it, she can’t do anything.”
Vivian smiled even brighter at that. She really had to thank Layla for helping her out. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have succeeded in winning first place with her design so smoothly.
“Viv, when do you plan on exposing Caroline for plagiarism?”
“Don’t be so anxious. Let her have a good night’s sleep first, This will be the last good day she has.”
When Susan heard this, she started smiling too.
Caroline returned to her office from the security department. Frowning, she inserted the pendrive into her computer. She adjusted the footage to the point where Vivian had entered her office that day.
At 7 am or so, Vivian and Susan had arrived at the office. At 8 am, Cheryl had arrived at work and unlocked Caroline’s office door. Right aller Cheryl had gone to the lounge, Susan had snuck Into Caroline’s ollice.
After about ten minutes, Susan had snuck back out of her office. Then, she had ordered Cheryl to run an errand for her before going back
into her office. She had only left after 40 minutes of 50.

Coincidentally, Gwen had also said she would treat Caroline to dinner
After getting into the car, Caroline called Kirk
Tve arrived. How much longer will you take? Do you want me to pick you up Kik asked.
“Sean called me,” Kirk said with a low laugh.
Caroline’s face flushed when Kirk’s husky laugh resounded in her ear. She replied. “So that means they’re both treating us to this Could that mean they’re together?
“I’m not sure,” Kirk replied. “Sean’s still keeping it a secret from me. He said it hasn’t been three months yet so he doesn’t dare say
anything”
“Was he always so careful when he dated in the past?
It was just a casual question on Caroline’s part, but Kirk unexpectedly sobered. He looked up at Sean and said. “I’m not sure.”
Caroline replied, I’m almost there, Let’s Talk when I arrive.”
After Caroline hung up, Kirk finally turned to look at Sean.
Sean fell discomfited by the way Kirk looked at him. “Why are you looking at me like that?” he asked.
“You didn’t tell Gwen about me after getting together with her, did you?
“Of course not,” Sean answered without thinking. “Relax. We’re friends. Do you think I stab you in the back just to date Gwen?
Kirk took a sip of his drink. “It’s hard to say.”
“If you say that, then I’ll tell Gwen about your identity. Sean was just joking around.
He wanted more than anyone else for Caroline and Kirk to stay together for the long run and be happy. After all, it was rare for Kirk to be in love. Sean wanted to see Kirk henpecked by Caroline.
“Tell me about what? Gwen asked teasingly. She had overheard the last bit of the conversation when she entered.
Sean froze. He eyed Kirk, who looked grim beside him, and said quickly, “Why are you so late?”
“There was traffic. Where’s Carol?”
The second Gwen said this, the door opened again, and Caroline walked in.
“I saw you at the door, but you were walking too quickly.”
Caroline eyed Sean and continued with a laugh, “Seeing how fast you were walking, there must be something precious waiting here.
Gwen’s face heated. “Carol, you’ve become mean,”
Caroline laughed as she walked over to sit beside Kirk.
Gwen hesitated a moment before sitting next to Sean. At this, Sean’s expression became overjoyed.
Chapter 242
At once, Sean looked over at Kirk.
Kirk leaned in his seat casually, with one arm stretching out over Caroline’s shoulder. The threat was clear in his smile.
“What are you looking at me for? Your wile’s asking you.”
“What wife?” Gwen glared at Kirk.
Then, she turned to look at Sean. “Is my question so tough to answer?”
“Alright.” Sean glanced at Kirk, his expression pained.
“Sorry, bro. For my wife, I have to throw you under the bus.”
Kirk only looked at Sean with a smile.
Sean braced himself and said, “Actually, before meeting Carrie Kirk, he was a vir-
Caroline had been taking a sip of her drink. When she heard this, she couldn’t help but spray the drink out in surprise. The droplets landed on Sean.
Sean, an innocent who had suffered unjustly, glanced over at Caroline dejectedly.
Caroline quickly pulled out some tissues and gave them to him. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I really didn’t expect –
She glanced at Kirk as she spoke. “Were you really?”
Kirk’s face was pale as he smiled fakely. “Good going, Sean.” 1
Sean raised his hands. “I mean to. Gwen forced me to say it.”
With that, the room became more lively. Soon, the food was served too.
As she ate, Gwen suddenly thought of the gossip she’d heard today. She asked Caroline, “Carol I heard Eddy’s second uncle married
Daphne Dawson. Is that true?*
Caroline’s expression remained unchanged. On the other hand, Sean shot a quick glance at Kirk. As his friend, Sean knew about this
matter too.
“It’s true. Mr. Morrison Senior told me about it himself.”
“F*** me.” Gwen couldn’t help but swear.
“I have to say, the Morrisons really don’t have much taste. Eddy fell for that two–faced bitch, Layla, and his second uncle is in love with someone with a plastic face. Goodness me, do all rich people have such weird taste?”
The person whose taste was being questioned quietly served Caroline some seconds.
Caroline said. “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Everyone likes something different.”
“But-“Gwen cut herself off before finishing.
She suddenly looked toward Sean. “Aren’t you that guy’s friend? Do you have insider knowledge?”
Sean replied, “I haven’t seen him all this time I’ve been back in the country. Where am I supposed to get insider knowledge?”
Gwen didn’t believe him. “But you’re good friends. It’s not like you have to make an appointment with his a**istant to see him.”
Sean looked at Kirk helplessly. He wanted to cry. This wasn’t a dinner at all. It was more like an interrogation!
Luckily, Kirk’s phone rang right then.
He picked it up and gave it a glance before saying, “I’m going to answer this.”
“Okay.” Caroline watched Kirk leave and continued gossiping with Gwen.
Kirk only answered the call after he closed the door.

But when he saw that Kirk had only brought an a**istant with him, he was stunned.
“Mr. Morrison, you’re here.”
if he hadn’t seen Kirk before, Howard would never think that such an ordinary–seeming person could be Kirk Morrison himself.
Kirk walked directly into the room and sat on the couch, casually propping his feet up on the coffee table. “Let’s cut to the chase. My free
time is limited.”
Howard was instantly taken aback by the way Kirk carried himself. It took a long moment for him to collect himself.
He said ingratiatingly. “Alright. I heard you’re planning to make headway in the entertainment industry, Mr. Morrison. I was thinking, since the Collins family has some influence in that industry, we could partner with you.”
lo you want
Kirk smiled deviously. “Partner? Or do you want me to help you make money?”
The smile on Howard’s face became awkward. “Um Of course you would be leading us to make money. But, Mr. Morrison, our company is a homegrown business in Easton. This will be beneficial to you too.”
“That’s right. But I don’t care for what little benefits you can bring me.”
Kirk straightened arrogantly in his seat, eyeing Howard. “It’s not impossible for me to help you make money. But you must agree to one condition.”
Howard quickly said, “What is it? I’ll agree to anything.”
Kirk didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he played with the pot of coffee on the table.

you’d like to partner with me and make money, that can be forgiven. However, you must remember not to offend those you shouldn’t.”
Since his goal was achieved, Kirk got up. “Charles, give him the contract.”
“Yes, sir. Charles handed Howard the contract.
Howard only took a glance at it and immediately became overjoyed. “50% I can get half of the profits.” It was a split in profits that he had never dared to expect.
Kirk signed the contract indifferently. After putting the company’s stamp on it, he left.
A long time after Kirk’s car lett, Howard couldn’t hold it in anymore. He threw his head back and laughed.
By his side, his butler said, “Congratulations, sir. With Mr. Morrison’s help, you will soar even higher. I’m sure it won’t be much longer until the Collins family becomes the top second family in Easton!”
Howard chortled. “That Daphne Dawson sure is capable. When you send the bags over tomorrow, make sure to give her a few extra. We have to make good use of this connection.”

“The company probably called him in with an emergency,” Sean said, comforting Caroline.
As he did he was using his other phone to call Kirk, but to no avail.
