Bogus Billionaire novel (Caroline and Kirk) novel Chapter 301

Chapter 301 

Now that Eddy’s support was quaranteed, Layla found herself very much at ease. 

Her smile widened, and she purposely planted a kiss on his cheek in front of all the people watching them. “Thank you, Eddy.” 

That said, she stared at Caroline as it she were trying to challenge her. 

However, Caroline had gotten used to Layla’s tricks a long time ago and was able to maintain her composure. 

What Layla did meant something to the others in the room, and their eyes locked on Eddy. 

At first, he was stunned by her kiss, but later, he felt annoyed. In fact, he was pissed at her for doing that. 

The strange thing was that he had never felt this way toward her. Still, he didn’t show much of it on his face. His brows merely knitted together. 

The other people took this as him giving her silent permission to do as she pleased. This also meant that he admitted to having a relationship with her. 

Those who believed that Layla would win the election became even more confident about their decision to give her their support. 

Layla and Eddy then approached Caroline, who looked away from them to stare at the documents in her hands.. 

Seeing her ignore him somehow made Eddy feel frustrated again. 

He silently swore to himself that he would give up everything and give her the CEO position at Evans Group if she could just smile at him 

like she used to in the past. 

He would do anything, even if her smile only lasted for a split second. 

Much to his disappointment, Caroline didn’t smile at him as she continued reading the documents with her head bowed. Clenching his hands, Eddy sat down on the chair that one of the employees had brought him. 

The two shareholders on Caroline’s side felt their hearts palpitating wildly in their chests at Eddy’s arrival 

Initially, they had been confident in her abilities when they saw her take out the ledger. 

Now, though, even Eddy was on Layla’s side. 

“Don’t fret.” Caroline’s head was still lowered when she spoke. 

“This is a meeting between the shareholders of Evans Group, not Morrison Corp. Nothing will change, even with Eddy here.” 

Her voice had a certain power to it, although she spoke softly. “Of course, I’ll hand the ledger over to you if you want to change your mind 

now.” 

The two beside her stared at each other for a moment and fell silent at her words. Just then, Eddy checked his watch and said, “it’s 9:00 

am already. Shouldn’t the meeting start already?”
