Chapter 384

If Caroline hadn’t said anything about signing a contract with Daphne, Layla wouldn’t have spent

25 million on her.

She could’ve simply taken advantage of her relationship with Kirk to bind Daphne for just five

million a year.

“Caroline!” Layla roared and rushed forth to grab at Caroline’s neck.

Cheryl ran forward in an attempt to save Caroline, but the latter stopped her and glanced around at

the surveillance cameras around them.

“There are so many cameras around,” Caroline said smilingly.

“The paparazzi would be very pleased to see you beat me up, don’t you think?”

Only then did Layla realize that they were on a filming set. If she got on the news for beating

Caroline up, she would drag her new company down.

It would also affect her relationship with Eddy, which she had so painstakingly managed to mend

not long ago.

Slowly and begrudgingly, she let go of Caroline. “It’s just 25 million dollars,” she said through.

gritted teeth.

“Don’t you dare think that you can defeat Evanson just like this. Heed my words–as long as Eddy’s

with me, I can spend as much as I want.

“You’re the one who should worry about how much longer your company will last.”

“Besides,” Layla added. “No one wants to invest in your company. Evans Group will go bankrupt

one day.”

“Really?” Caroline had a smile on her face.

“We’ll see.” Then, she turned and asked Cheryl to follow her out of the filming site.

Cheryl finally managed to understand what had happened when they got in the car. Ignoring

Jack’s presence, she laughed without restraint.

“So you were tricking Layla all along! You were so cool just now! You’ve managed to make her lose

It made Jack curious. Cheryl continued by telling him all about how Caroline managed to make Layla fall into her

trap.

After listening to the entire story, Jack couldn’t stop himself from complimenting Caroline too. t

“Ms. Evans, this idea of yours is simply remarkable! Not only did you manage to make Layla suffer a loss of 25

million dollars, but she’ll probably stop asking anyone in Evans Group for information in the future too!”

Caroline’s effort this time would prevent future trouble, for sure.

Now, Caroline was in a much better mood than before. “What do you guys want to eat? I’ll treat you to a meal.”

Jack and Cheryl glanced at each other for a moment.

Cheryl then asked, “Aren’t you going back home?” She remembered that Caroline would always return home right

after work.

However, the smile on Caroline’s face faltered this time. When she had worked at Thorne Corp, she

had always looked forward to going home to enjoy the dinner that Kirk made for them.

Now, though, the villa that housed countless fond memories of them both had turned into a cage.

Whenever she thought of the time they spent together there, something would gnaw at her heart,

and she would feel upset all of a sudden.

“I want to eat out today,” she explained.

Jack and Cheryl stared at each other again. A moment later, Jack prodded, “Ms. Evans, did you and

Mr. Morrison get into a fight?”

“No.” Caroline denied it reflexively.

Cheryl said, “But you weren’t like this in the past.”

It made Caroline frown. “Have I … changed?”

“Yes. You were always so energetic back then,” Cheryl replied.

“But ever since you came back from Macovo, I only get to see this side of you when you’re

working. Sometimes, you’re in a daze, even at work. What’s wrong?”

Now, even Jack turned to look at Caroline His and Cheryl’s gaze bore into her, giving her the urge to flee Tm fine.

Let’s go and have dinner

That said, she opened the door and got out of the car.

Cheryl wanted to go after her but was stopped by Jack, who said, ‘Let me go after her.”

He rushed after Caroline. “Miss, I don’t know what’s happened between you and Mr. Morrison, but

there’s something I have to tell you,” he hollered.

“He really loves your
