Chapter 107
Hence, Gwen had started going out with Sean for food whenever she was free. They were just going
for food; there was nothing more to it than that.
“No.”
Sean smiled gracefully, asking, “What can I do for you?”
“Carol is getting hate online.” Gwen briefly told Sean the whole story.
“Didn’t Kirk just come back from a business trip? Ask him to stay home, keep Caroline company, and
tell him not to fool around with someone else.” She didn’t want Caroline to get into even more
trouble.
Sean asked, “Since when has Kirk fooled around?”
“Don’t think I haven’t noticed. Carol has seen it with her own eyes.”
Gwen was annoyed. She liked handsome guys, but she only dated one at a time. She would never
two–time someone.
“When did this happen?” Sean asked. He didn’t know his friend was such a philanderer.

Gwen didn’t tell him who Kirk had been with that night. She continued, “I have to go. I’m having a
meeting. At any rate, just remember to tell him not to go anywhere!”
Sean rushed to call Kirk, but the line was busy. When he tried to call him again, Kirk had already
turned off his phone.
At Morrison Corporation’s private hospital, Layla read the nasty comments directed at Caroline, a
giddy smile spreading on her face.
“I didn’t expect things to go so well.” The nurse watched nearby, saying with a smile, “After letting the
situation blow up for a while, I’m sure Mr. Strauss will bend under the public’s opinion and
withdraw the lawsuit.”
Layla smirked. “Too bad I can’t see the look on Caroline’s face.” It had to be an incredible sight.
When Layla saw the gifts all over her room, her smile became even brighter.
After she’d asked Eddy to make a post on Twitter, everyone in Osbury other than the big four families
had come to give her gifts.
Everyone seemed to regard her as the future madam of the Morrison family.
Layla said, “Bring me my phone. I want to take some pictures.”
The nurse handed Layla her phone. Layla snapped several photos of the gifts in her room and sent
them to the family group chat. She even mentioned Caroline, so she would see them.
She texted, “Hey, Caroline. I have gotten so many gifts at once, and I don’t know what to do with them.
Do you want to take some of them? Then, it wouldn’t take up so much space in my room.
Kirk had blocked most of Caroline’s relatives‘ numbers, but he had forgotten to help Caroline leave the
group chat.
Therefore, Caroline saw Layla’s message immediately. She was about to put her phone down, but
more messages came in.
“Why are you giving them to a useless person like her, Layla? The Evans family spent so much money
to educate her. But not only did she fail to become the Morrisons‘ daughter–in–law, but she even
married an ordinary man!”
“The reason why the Evans family hasn’t grown is because of her! Look at Layla. I remember she

be as good as her!”
“You’re absolutely right. Layla has such a big heart. She’s still thinking about Caroline, even after she
sued her. Meanwhile, Caroline is finding a way to send Layla to jail just because she can’t handle a
loss! They’re both relatives, so how on earth are they so different? Dan and Sarah, you’ve truly failed
as parents.”
“Of course, the Evans family’s gossipers have to say something,” Caroline thought, silently looking at
the mocking messages with a derisive smile.
Dan and Sarah didn’t say a single word throughout the discussion.
Caroline was about to give a reply when she saw a notification. She tapped on it and saw that the
contest’s organizers had made a post on their official page.
“After thorough investigation, we found that the designer of the winning design of the Novitius Contest
is Ms. Caroline Evans: On behalf of every major brand, we apologize to Ms. Caroline for making such a
major mistake in this competition. We would also like to apologize to the audience. We’re still following
up on the compensation. Remember to always support originality!”
