Chapter 309

It was clear that back was in a good mood today. He was even joking in front of Gwen.

opportunity, Sean said. “I’d love to do that, but someone doesn’t want to play along, and she keeps embarrassing me.”

Caroline smiled and joked, “Did you hear that, Gwen? He’s complaining about you. Why don’t you make this thing between you two official, and we’ll have a double wedding?”

“Oh, shut it. Today is your day. I’m not going to steal your thunder.” Even as she said that, in a rare moment, Gwen took the initiative to hold Sean’s hand in front of Caroline and Kirk.

Sean looked down at their clasped hands, his heart beating faster. He was about to say something when he heard Gwen warn, “Don’t push your luck”

Sean simicked at her words and sat down quietly beside Gwen..

Caroline and Kirk looked at each other tacitly.

Hurry up and order some lood. I’m so hungry,” Gwen said before Caroline could tease her.

Caroline had choice but to order food for everyone. While waiting for the food, Sean talked about what Eddy looked like when he found out that Layla had deceived him, laughing happily.

“Hahal You guys had no idea how pitiful Eddy looked. It looked as if his faith in humanity had fallen apart!”

Gwen snorted, “He deserves it for always thinking that Caroline was a scheming bitch while Layla was the actual snake. He’s just a blind Idiot who couldn’t see that. Now, it’s great that he finally saw her true colors! He can regret his choices all he wants!”

Kirk looked at Caroline silently.

Feeling his gaze on her, Caroline litted her head slightly and looked back at him. She raised an eyebrow, silently asking him what was wrong.

Kirk smiled and shook his head. Then, he continued listening to Sean’s story about what had happened.

Relishing in the gossip, Gwen asked, “Then, what happened?”

“I don’t know. I just saw Layla getting into Eddy’s car,”

“What a shame!” Gwen said regretfully.

Suddenly, her eyes focused on Sean and murmured, “Hang on a minute..

Sean asked, “What’s wrong?”

Gwen asked, “Aren’t you friends with Eddy’s second uncle? By right, you shouldn’t be laughing at your friend’s nephew getting tricked.”

Sean looked over at Kirk, who was grilling meat for Caroline, and shrugged.

“I’m just his second uncle’s friend, not his friend. Besides, there are many uncles who screw their nephews over. Laughing at his demise shouldn’t be a problem.”

Only Kirk knew what Sean’s words meant. But he remained unphased and put the grilled meat on Caroline’s plate. “What are your plans Trom here on out, darling?”

My plans?”

Caroline didn’t know how the topic had changed, but she still answered honestly, “First of all, I have to go back to pack my things from Thome Corp this afternoon.

“Then, starting tomorrow, I’ll do my best to manage Evans Group and restore it to its former glory.”

Kirk tucked Caroline’s hair behind her ear and asked, “Do you want me to come with you?”

“To Thorne Corp?”

Yeah.

“No need,” Caroline relused with a smile.

“I don’t have many things over there, and Mr. Jack can help out anyway.”

At the mention of this, Caroline felt emotional. “I never thought I’d leave Thome Corp so soon. I’m going to miss that place.”

She would especially miss Jack. Although she still didn’t know who he was or why he used the company’s name to pose as her driver, she was grateful to him.

Thanks to him, she had been able to devote her time and energy to the company’s work without worrying about anything related to traveling.

At this moment, Caroline’s phone vibrated on the table.

“Ms. Evans, I’ve already investigated Jack.” When the screen lit up with the text, Kirk accidentally caught a glimpse of it, and his hands froze.
