Chapter 730

“Hmph! That doesn’t matter much. The best thing Layla did was bring Evans Group back on top Layla did what so many people couldn’t.”

“Oh yeah. You’re right,” someone followed suit.

“Nothing even happened when Caroline took over Evans Group. But look at Layla. Even without a company, she managed to return to the big four families‘ ranks.”

These people knew very well how Layla obtained Evans Group. However, things were different now.

Since Layla was about to acquire Collins Group, she would become the head of one of the big four families. With that status, everyone was eager to curry favor with her. No one would dare to upset her.

“I have an idea.” Someone raised his glass and said, “Everyone, let’s give the new matriarch, Ms.

Layla, a toast.”

Layla had already lost herself in everyone’s praises, so she toasted everyone and went wild.

“All right! Everything tonight is on me! After I get Collins Group tomorrow, I’ll give each of you a branded bag!”

Her words immediately made the crowd go wild.

In contrast to the blaring sounds in the restaurant, Caroline was quiet. Very quiet.

Kirk walked to Caroline’s side silently. “What are you looking at?”

His actions startled Caroline. When she turned around and saw Kirk, she said cutely, “I’m reading the manuscript I wrote, of course.”

During this time, she had spent most of her time on her writing. She wondered if suffering was a form of inspiration. After she had begun her treatment, she’d had an endless amount of inspiration.

It felt as if she had a lot of things to tell at every single moment. Rosalind had remarked that the gates to her creativity had opened.

“What did you write?” Kirk knew that Caroline had been writing. But she was always so cryptic When Caroline saw Kirk stretching out his hand, she quickly hid in her arms.

Kirk couldn’t resist pinching Caroline’s cheek. “I can’t believe you forgot such an important thing.”

“What important thing?” Caroline blinked.

Kirk leaned over and said, “Today is the day when the bank will announce who will take over Collins Group.”

Only then did Caroline remember. “I can’t believe I forgot about it. What time is it? Have they already announced it??”

Seeing Caroline’s anxious expression, Kirk reached out and hugged her around the waist.

“There’s still half an hour left before the announcement,” he said, rubbing Caroline’s neck.

“Darling, it’s boring to just wait around. Why don’t we find something to do?”

Caroline felt a tingling warmth on her neck, which spread throughout her entire body. She bit her lip and looked at Kirk.

Kirk tapped Caroline’s forehead. He picked up his phone and looked at the time. “There are 15 more minutes.”

Caroline was speechless.

Time quickly passed as they made love, and soon, it was already 11:59 pm.

Caroline sat next to Kirk, dripping in sweat. She took her phone and opened the bank’s official Twitter account.

Her heart pounded wildly, She didn’t know if it was because of their lovemaking or because the announcement was about to be revealed.

At this moment, she refreshed the page, revealing that the bank’s official account had posted an The person who would acquire Collins Group was
