Chapter 751
Bogus Billionaire
âCarol, what the hell are you saying?â Gwen went ballistic in the group chat Sonia and Cheryl also texted their queries about this revelation.
Hence, Caroline recounted what Layla had said at the handover ceremony that day.
Gwen remarked, âSomehow, I find it hard to believe what Layla says.â
Cheryl and Sonia also believed it was ridiculous.
However, Caroline had a different opinion than Gwen, âGwen, do you remember what I told you?
âI have no memories of the time before I was around five or six years old. I always thought it was because I was too young.
âBut when I underwent hypnosis with Dr. Caldwell, he told me I might have shut away my memories before.
âSo itâs very possible that Iâm really not an Evans.â
Gwen said, âBut isnât that ridiculous? According to you, you have no memories of anything before you were five or six years old.
âSo you must have been taken into the Evans family at that age. If thatâs the case, thereâs no way the other Evans family members wouldnât have noticed that you had switched places with someone.â
âRemember.â Caroline became calmer as she spoke.
âWhen I was around that age, I went abroad with Sarah and Dan. I was already 16 years old when I returned to Easton.
âPeopleâs appearances can change a lot in a decade. So itâs understandable that they didnât realize the real Caroline had switched places with someone else.â
After seeing Carolineâs message, the other three women felt chills running down their spines. They were at a loss for words.
After a while, Sonia said, âGwen, havenât you and Caroline been friends since you were kids? Didnât âWell ⦠we didnât exactly grow up together. We only met after the decline of the Evans family. We were both children back then, so we donât remember much.
âBesides, Carol went abroad all of a sudden. We only met during the second year after she had returned, Gwen explained.
Then, she said, âHang on. I remember something. When we first met, Carol had a strange look on her face, as if it were the first time she had heard my name.â
âThat doesnât prove that Caroline has switched places with someone,â Sonia commented.
The group chat was silent for a moment. At this time, Jack reminded Caroline, âMs. Evans, are you going to make a reservation at the restaurant?â
Caroline returned to her senses and said, âOh, yes. I had forgotten about it.â
With that said, she sent a private message to Cheryl, asking her to book a table at the restaurant.
Then, she told the group, âLetâs stop making wild guesses. It doesnât matter if Iâm the real Caroline or not. You guys will always be my good friends.â
Gwen echoed her words, saying, âThatâs right. In my eyes, your name doesnât matter. I donât care which family youâre from.
âAt any rate, youâll always be my best friend, Carol.â
Caroline smiled at her text. âIâll thoroughly investigate this issue and let you guys know if I find anything.
You donât have to worry about me.
âAll right,â the three women responded in the group chat. However, they were still worried about Caroline.
Although Caroline didnât have a good relationship with the Evans family, she must be shocked to find out something was wrong with her parentage. Anyone would be affected by this ordeal, no matter who it was.
Soon, the six of them met. When Sean saw Caroline, he joked, âOh, Caroline. I canât call you that anymore. Now, I have to call you Ms. Evans, the CEO.â
Caroline said with a smile, âYou should probably call Kirk the CEO instead.â
Sean looked at Kirk in surprise. âWhat? Do you really plan to let him manage Evans Group?â
With the addition of Evans Group to Kirkâs roster, Caroline was going to work him to death.
âYeah.â
Caroline looked at Kirk. âKirk has agreed to do so.â
Sean couldnât believe her. However, Kirk looked at Caroline lovingly and nodded.
Seeing this, Sean couldnât help but whisper in Kirkâs ear. âYouâre pampering her a lot. Youâre currently handling SY Group and planning to expand the market.
âNot only that, but youâre taking over Evans Group now, too. Do you think you can be at two places at once?â
Kirk glanced at Sean, but he didnât say anything in response.
