Bogus Billionaire
Even though Kirk had seen through him in a second, Sean didnât get embarrassed. He only laughed and said. Thereâs no need to be so calculative between us.
As he spoke, he turned the steering wheel. Then, his tone turned serious âI mean it. It doesnât feel good to see Caroline pinching pennies because of you.â
Kirkâs finger was on his temple as he said, âI got it.â
This meant that he would deal with it, so Sean didnât pursue the topic anymore.
After hanging up, Kirk went back into the conference room. He saw Howard, who was looking at him in anticipation, and said blandly, âYou can leave now.â
The smile on Howardâs face froze. âBut Mr. Morrison, Iâm here today to report about Kirk shot Howard a look, making him shut up. He had no choice but to leave obediently.
Once Howard left, Kirk called Charles in âGive Daphne a few more roles.â
Pained, Charles said, âYes, sir.â
âCome back here.â
Kirkâs gaze was dark as he said, âI donât mean a secondary or tertiary character. Give her a background role. It would be best if itâs the kind of character who has to get in the water or fight.
Make sure itâs as difficult of a role as possible.â
Charles was perplexed. âSir?â he asked But Kirk didnât respond, even after long seconds. Charles knew that he wasnât going to get an answer, so he quickly went back to doing his job.
Meanwhile, Howard went straight home after leaving Kirkâs office. Once he got back, he took a cup of coffee from a maid and splashed it across the floor.

ane became mfuriated again when she heard that it was about the Morrison family once more.
âit you ask me, the Morisons are unreasonable. Do they really think they call all the shots just because theyâre the top family in Easton?
I went to the Morison familyâs shop today Jane couldnât help but recount what had happened to her that day. When she finished, she huffed in displeasure âTheyâre really too much. They would even chase off their own family. Who wouldnât they chase.
When Howard heard Janeâs story, he slowly calmed down. âWhat did you just say?â
âThey would even chase off their own family âNot that part. You mean you went with Daphne?â
âYes I wanted to see Daphneâs wedding photos the other day, but Daphne told me they never took any because of how rushed it was when they got married.
âThinking of what you said, I thought I would try to butter her up. Thatâs why I suggested going to buy a wedding gown at Merry Color. Who would have thought weâd bump into Caroline.
Howard couldnât beat to listen to anything more. He frowned and interrupted Jane. âI was wondering why Eddyâs uncle wouldnât sign with me when things were going fine. So youâre the one who ruined my plans.â
Jane was stunned by this. âMe? What did I do? I was bullied by the Morrisons today, but youâre Their side?â

Eddyâs second uncle took it out on me after you took Daphne to the bridal boutique Jane froze for a moment before saying, âThat canât be, can it?â
âHow else can you explain why he suddenly didnât sign the contract?â
Howard walked over to sit on the couch. There was a strange smile on his face âBut when it comes down to it, I can tell from this incident that he really cares about Daphine If we use this opportunity well, we will definitely make a fortune â
