Chapter 351
Caroline didn’t doubt that Kirk would be able to convince her to forgive him if he had been
standing before her now.
He had a mysterious power about him that made others take his side. Even Gwen, who had thought that such a renowned person as Eddy didn’t deserve her, was on Kirk’s side.
Caroline had to keep her head straight!
She massaged her temples until the shooting pain subsided and her breathing stabilized.
Taking out her phone, Caroline once again clicked on Marina’s contact. She wanted to ask Marina to be quick in her search, but changed her mind on second thought.
After so many years of not talking, rushing Marina this way was impolite. Caroline would have to
calm her anxious heart.
She clicked on her phone and quickly found the notification from the bank. Kirk had truly sent her two million dollars. Looking at all the zeros, Caroline’s heart started beating erratically again.
Thinking about it, she knew that Kirk really treated her well. It didn’t make sense that he might
be scamming her, whether for financial gain or for sex.
When it came to money, Kirk had a lot more of it than she did. When it came to looks, Caroline was pretty, but there were many who were prettier. What was the point of targeting her?
Could it be… for the thrill?
The more she thought about it, the more messed up she got. In the end, she shoved the matter to
the back of her mind. She told herself not to think about it anymore and to just wait for Marina’s
response.
If Kirk had really tricked her and had another wife over in Macldo, she would divorce him
immediately. She would never see him again!
At that thought, Caroline calmed down a lot. Looking at the two million dollars in her account, she
gave it some thought before calling Gwen.
“Gwen, are you free this afternoon?”
The sound of the keyboard clacking came from Gwen’s end of the phone. “What is it, Carol? If you
have a problem, I can take the day off.”
“There’s no need for that,” Caroline said. “It’s nothing. You do you.”
Gwen paused in her work and walked over to the lounge with her phone. “Are you really okay?”

“Really Caroline chuckled.
I’m done with work, so I’m just waiting for the staff to finish with the plan.”
“Wow, is this the leisurely life of a big boss?” Gwen teased, admiring Caroline.
Caroline replied, “I guess so.”
“Stop showing off.” Gwen put a hand to her chest in indignity.
“You’re hurting a poor working–class girl like me. You should be more considerate.”
Caroline laughed at Gwen’s joke. After a bit more conversation, Caroline ended the call.
Her gaze fell on the two million dollars again.
In the past, Caroline wouldn’t be bothered by the money in her account. But now it became something that annoyed her. Besides, Kirk wouldn’t accept the money back even if she returned it
to him.
Sighing, Caroline got up. She decided to think that she was picking out a car for Kirk. When the time came to buy it, she would put it under his name. That way, even if they divorced, he wouldn’t
lose out.
Clicking open a map, Caroline found a Porsche car dealership nearby Evans Group.
Rather than sit at the office and let her imagination run wild, Caroline informed Cheryl that she was leaving and went off to the car dealership.
