Chapter 450
Bogus Billionaire
Caroline looked at Kirk in confusion. âI really donât understand why itâs so hard to explain why youâre supposedly already married.â
Right then, there was a knock at the door.
Caroline turned her head and saw Jack with a basket full of vegetables. He looked to be at a loss for words.
This glass sliding door was really good for soundproofing.
Caroline had no choice but to pull the door open.
âMs. Evans, Cheryl asked me to tell you that the webseries is starting.â
Caroline nodded and took one last look at Kirk before leaving the kitchen.
Back in the living room, Caroline was still thinking about what she had asked Kirk. She couldnât pay much attention to the show at all.
However, Cheryl was having the time of her life watching it.
âCaroline, I really understand why you said Sonia would become popular after watching this show.
Her entrance was amazing! She can beat Daphne Dawson any day!â
Caroline answered distractedly, âThatâs right.â
âSpeaking of Daphne Dawson, I really wonder about the kind of taste Mr. Eddyâs second uncle has.
Why would he fall for her and even marry her?
Î âCaroline, donât you have a good relationship with Mr. Eddy? If you have the chance, you should really tell Mr. Morrison Senior about it. Tell Mr. Eddyâs second uncle to check what kind of person Daphne is.â
Caroline was still in a daze. âIndeed, he has no taste..
â
In truth, Caroline had no clue what Cheryl had been saying.
Meanwhile, Kirk was gobsmacked as he set the table.
âI feel Sonia isnât bad. If you have the chance, maybe you could introduce her to Mr. Eddyâs second uncle?â
âAhâ¦â Caroline finally snapped out of her thoughts. She had heard something about Eddyâs second uncle. Cheryl had asked about him, right?
Cheryl said, âLook how pretty and charismatic Sonia is. If she gets together with a shrewd businessman like Mr. Eddyâs second uncle, Iâm sure theyâll be a great match.â
âHe wouldnât like such a woman,â said Kirk coldly.
Both Caroline and Cheryl looked up at him.
Cheryl was terrified by the oppressive air he was exuding. She swallowed and stuttered out, âW-
why not? Sonia is very beautiful, though.â
âHe wouldnât like her.â
âThen whatâs the type he would like?â
âHe likesâ¦â
Kirkâs gaze naturally moved to land on Caroline. Then, he seemed to realize something and changed tacks.
âFrom a manâs perspective, I think he would like someone like your Ms. Evans.â
Seeing how sure Kirk was, Caroline nearly asked him if he knew Eddyâs second uncle. But he had said that it was from a manâs perspective instead. Caroline suddenly lost interest.
âBeauty is in the eye of the beholder. Cheryl, letâs go eat.â
âAlright.â
The three of them headed to the dining table.
With Jack and Cheryl there, the meal was relatively enjoyable.
That was why, whenever Kirk found the two extra people annoying, he would look at Caroline with a slight smile. He comforted himself that there were wins and losses in all things.
Halfway through her meal, Caroline received a phone call from the head of the marketing department.
âMs. Evans, Evanson Corporation upstairs has already started selling their horoscopeâthemed clothes. Should we follow?â
Caroline said, âNo need.â
âBut their sales have already broken ten thousand items in their live stream. The horoscope theme is a trend.
âIf we miss this wave, Iâm afraid the trend will be over by the time we release our products. The consumers wonât want to buy any more of them.â
Caroline remained firm. âJust follow our plan.â
The marketing department head seemed to have more to say, but Caroline had already hung up.
The others in the group chat discussed this incident fervently.
When they found out that Caroline didnât want to push up the release, they all said, âI think our group chat will come to an end soon. We should find a new job fast.â
