Chapter 606
Bogus Billionaire
Caroline was confident that Kirk would be able to showcase his skills if he took control of Mackey Group. After all, he had quite the mind for business.
âIndeed.â Kirk looked brazenly at Carolineâs face.
He smiled as he asked, âDarling, have you ever thought about switching companies?â
Caroline replied, âOf course I have. The problem is that itâs not so easy to find a company that fulfills the requirements all of a sudden.â
âI have a good suggestion.â
Caroline cast Kirk a sideways glance. She suddenly had a bad feeling in her gut. âYou donât mean that overseas company, do you?â
She had been thinking of this problem. The best thing for Kirk to do once he quit was to go back to manage that company.
But if that was the case, then she and Kirk would have to be in a longâdistance relationship.
Just thinking about how they would only be able to see each other a few times a year, Caroline felt an ache in her heart.
Kirk didnât miss the nervousness in Carolineâs eyes. He smiled and said, âWhat are you thinking about?
âThat company is my dadâs. Even if I go back to take it over, he wouldnât allow it. Besides, itâs just a small company. I wouldnât go back even if you asked me to.â
His final words soothed Carolineâs worried heart. She managed to calm down completely.
âThen you meanâ¦â
âCollins Group.â
Caroline coughed violently, nearly choking to death on her saliva. âSâsay that again?â
Carolineâs only goal was to bring the Evans Group back to its former glory. However, she didnât even dare to say such a thing as taking over Collins Group now.
Kirk thoughtfully twisted open a bottle of water for Caroline.
Once Caroline calmed down, he continued, âNow, Collins Group is being pressured by SY Group No one dares to work with them anymore. We can hit them when theyâre down. Itâs our perfect chance.â
âCollins Group is under pressure?â Caroline asked in curiosity.
She hurriedly parked the car by the side of the road and took out her phone to search up some news regarding the company.
She was shocked when she saw the first result. It was about how many companies had announced an end to their partnerships with Collins Group.
âWhat in the world is going on?â Carolineâs expression was one of complete astonishment.
Kirk held her hand gently. He was in a brilliant mood. âThe president did it.â
âWhy did he do that?â
âHe felt very bad about what happened last time. Thatâs why he did this after he found out you got abducted by the Collins family. Itâs a show of faith.â
âIsnât this too big a show of faith?â
Everyone knew that SY Group and Collins Group had been working handâinâhand right before this.
Caroline knew that this partnership was purely a business decision.
Now that the partnership had been canceled because of her, she didnât know whether to say Eddyâs second uncle was being reckless with his money or if he had a conscience.
After all, he knew that he should make it up to them after causing her and Kirk so much trouble in their relationship.
Kirk touched Carolineâs hair as he said, âAfter hurting my darling so badly, any show of faith isnât enough.â
Caroline chuckled. She rubbed her head into Kirkâs hand.
âLetâs go.â
Kirkâs gaze fell on Carolineâs phone. Then, he said, âAlright.â
They both got out of the car.
