“Have Eddy help us so I won’t be locked up,” Dan told her.
“And let me become the CEO of Evans Group once again!”
Layla finally calmed down after taking a few deep breaths. “Dan, don’t you think that you’re
asking for a bit too much?”

said, “Okay then. It’s a deal.”
“I’ll go and get the documents ready so I can prove to the board that she isn’t my biological
daughter.”
“There’s no rush.” A smirk appeared on Layla’s face now.
“Caroline thinks that she’s really good at doing business. Let her handle Evans Group for a while
longer.”
She continued, “Why don’t you just assume her position once she settles all the problems? You

A shadow flitted across Dan’s face when he heard Layla’s suggestion Layla, I think you’re the one who’s better at

market value.
“Are you thinking of a way to purchase Mackey Group?” Came Kirk’s gruff voice.
Startled, Caroline turned to look at him. She wondered if he had implanted a chip in her brain to
help him know exactly what she was thinking about.
“Don’t look at me like that. I’might misunderstand you.” Kirk laughed.
