Chapter 526
Bogus Billionaire
Carolineâs text read, âHave you eaten? I made a little too much food for dinner.â
Right now, Kirk was sitting in his office, listening to his subordinates reports about their work progress.
He had a gloomy expression as he listened. He looked so terrifying that the subordinate trembled in fear, almost biting his tongue several times.
Everyone else was also nervous, and they didnât dare to breathe. This tense situation had lasted for over a month. Everyone was exhausted.
Just at this moment, everyone heard a sharp ring in the office. Apparently, someone hadnât muted their phone.
No one could believe someone still made such a stupid mistake at a crucial time like this. They secretly cursed the person who hadnât silenced their phone.
The next second, Kirk picked up his phone and looked at it.
Everyone was silent. Before they could recover from their fear, they saw a smile appear on Kirkâs face for the first time in a month. The sight shocked everyone so much that their jaws dropped.
The only calm person was Charles, who immediately guessed the text message was from Caroline.
Sure enough, Kirk stood up the next second and said calmly, âSince all of you have worked hard today, you can get off work.â
Everyone looked at Kirk as if they had seen a ghost. Had the world turned upside down or something?
Their boss finally knew how hard they had worked!
Everyone was so emotional that they almost burst into tears.
Kirk had already put his phone away and walked to the door. As soon as Kirk left, everyone else surrounded Charles.
âCharles, what happened to our boss?â
Charles looked at everyone with a smile. âYour better days are here. Go and celebrate tonight.â
Everyone was puzzled by his words.
However, Charles didnât explain any further and quickly caught up with Kirk. He also smiled when he saw Kirkâs relaxed expression. He had really changed a lot ever since he had gotten married to Caroline.
Previously, nothing could affect his emotions. But now, Caroline could easily affect him, even with just a movement or a glance.
Kirk finally seemed like a normal person who felt joy, anger, and sorrow.
Charles didnât know what everyone else thought of this change, but he preferred Kirk as he was now.
Meanwhile, in Morrison Manor, Jude slowly opened his eyes after listening to Simonâs report.
He praised, âCarrie is really amazing. She brought Evans Group back to prosperity without our help.
âI already told Eddy that Caroline was a good match for him, but he didnât believe me. He insisted on getting together with Layla. By the way, did you find any news about Carrieâs husband?â
Simon said, âNot yet. He seems to know weâre investigating him.â
Jude waved his hand. âWhat about Kirk? What has he been busy with? He hasnât visited me for a while.â
Simon looked at Jude awkwardly.
âWhatâs wrong? Just tell me whatâs on your mind.â
âSir, IâI suspect Mr. Kirk is Ms. Evansâhusband!â
