Chapter 293

Caroline said, “Yes.”

“My god, I really can’t believe it. Carol, you’re amazing.”

Caroline was a bit annoyed as she said, “I’m not 100% sure, though. Don’t praise me just yet.”

“No, but you’re already amazing for daring to take over a company. Some people don’t dare become bosses like this. Me, for example. I wouldn’t dare do such a thing. Just thinking about all the issues a company laces gives me a headache!”

Caroline replied, “Managing a company really is quite difficult. Besides, I don’t have much experience with it. But I don’t want my grandfather’s company to be ruined just like that.”

Although Caroline didn’t much remember Benjamin Evans, they were still family.

“You’re right about that.”

When it came to the Evans family, Gwen found it kind of sad. She had been young back then, but she could still remember a bit about what had happened.

Whenever the adults had spoken about the Evans family back then, they had been reverential and fearful. Now, they were mocking.

The difference was astonishing.

“Enough, let’s stop talking about this already. Let’s go to the bookstore.”

Caroline took out her phone. “Before coming out, I had Kirk send me a list of books. They’re all about management.”

Gwen took a glance at the list. Most of the books were in a foreign language. She couldn’t understand any of it, but she admired Caroline a lot for it.

“This list of books must have taken a lot of effort on Kirk’s part,” Gwen said.

“Honestly, this whole improving yourselves as a couple and creating a new life kind of deal is really touching.”

Caroline smiled. Indeed, being in step with each other made her look forward to what the future had in store. It was too bad that she and Kirk couldn’t agree on having children.

Thinking of that, Caroline clutched her chest and forced herself not to think about it anymore. She went into the bookstore with Gwen.

There weren’t many people inside. Books about management were boring, so not many people cared for them.

Caroline and Gwen pushed a cart down the aisles and quickly gathered most of the books on the list.

There was only one last book that they couldn’t find, no matter what. It was titled “The Essence of Management.”

Gwen said, “I’ll try and look for it on the computer up front.”

“Alright,” Caroline said. She stayed and kept looking. But after another round of searching, she still couldn’t find it.

When she turned around, she inadvertently saw Adrian.

Adrian obviously hadn’t expected to see Caroline there. He raised an eyebrow. “What a coincidence.”

Caroline replied, “Yes, quite. You’re here for…”

Adrian looked behind himsell. “Quentin wants to use the computer here, so I brought him.”

Caroline was stunned for a moment. Then, she smiled. “Don’t tell me this bookstore belongs to the Sorkin family.”

Adrian smiled. “It doesn’t.”

He continued before Caroline could say anything else, “It’s mine. It has nothing to do with the Sorkin family.”

Caroline was at a loss for words. Was there a difference?

“Carol, I found it. It’s in the C section.”

when Gwen walked back, she found a man standing best to mome. The was tall and slam, alii ina realnies were handEVRIE She recognized him immediately. “Addlan Sotkinl Adrian smilled dazzlingly. “Hello, Gwen.”

“You know me?” Gwen was surprised by this.

Adrian glanced at Caroline. “You’re Caroline’s Ilend, so of course I know you When Gwen heard this, she looked meaningfully at Caroline. “Alt, so it’s like that. I thought it was my charisma that made you remember me, Mr. Sorkin.”

Right then, there was a slight breeze as someone rushed over. “I found I, I found It It was Quentin.
