Caroline was confused now. “But Jack said that the company had sent those bodyguards.”
Jack? Who’s Jack?”
Caroline asked. “Didn’t you hire a driver for me?”
Jules stared at her, puzzled.
“You didn’t hire him?” Caroline asked, frowning.
Jules‘ mind was muddled at the moment. He only knew that Caroline was Eddy’s fiancée and nothing else.
As he thought about it, he felt like Kirk might be involved, but Caroline wasn’t aware of who handled things behind the scenes. Perhaps Kirk didn’t want Caroline to know about it.
Jules understood it now, but he didn’t know how to turn the situation around.
He had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, “Oh, I must be getting old. You’re right. I did hire a driver for you. His name must have slipped my mind. That’s why I didn’t realize who you were talking about. So his name is Jack.”
Jules‘ explanation was quite reasonable, so Caroline said nothing else.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave. Is that okay?” Jules looked at Caroline cautiously.
Caroline nodded with a smile. “Okay.”
Seeing that she had no suspicions, Jules left.
However, as soon as he left, Caroline sat on her chair, lost in thought. Just then, the phone rang. It was a call from Brittany. “Ms. Evans. can we post those videos to garner sympathy now?”
Caroline said, “Go ahead.”
“All right.” Brittany nodded.
After hanging up the phone, Brittany suddenly felt like Caroline was her superior instead. She hadn’t felt this way for years.
Then, she sent a message to her subordinates to continue with the plan.
As soon as the video of Caroline’s house being pelted with paint and dung was uploaded, many netizens sympathized with Caroline. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Her parents had kidnapped her, beat her up, and even spread lies about her online. It was really pitiful.
After the police announced that someone had tried to stab Caroline In front of her home, the backlash against Sarah and Dan peaked.
‘As a mother, I was really angry looking at this. Didn’t Sarah and Dan consider that this would happen when they came forward to accuse their daughter?”
“They must have thought of it, and I think this is what they wanted. They want Caroline’s reputation to be ruined. That way, no one would
know the awful things they have done!”
“I’m utterly disgusted. That’s your daughter out there! What were you both thinking, letting some maniac hunt her down?”
“I wonder if Caroline is Sarah and Dan’s real daughter. I can’t believe someone would actually treat their child like this!”
“That’s right! They’re bastards!”
“They’re worse than that! Even bastards wouldn’t treat their child like this!”
The netizens became increasingly agitated. Soon enough, Sarah and Dan’s names trended on the Internet.
Some people thought it wasn’t enough and left awful messages on the Evans Group’s official blog.
No one had run this blog since the downfall of the Evans group, but now the website started trending along with Sarah and Dan.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Caroline sent another video to Brittany.
She said miserably. “I didn’t want things to turn out like this, so please don’t blame Sarah and Dan anymore. Although I don’t want to acknowledge them as my parents, they’re the ones who brought me into the world. I only wish for us to go our separate ways and stay out of each other’s business.”
When Brittany saw Caroline crying in the video, she wanted to ask the latter if she wanted to join the entertainment industry. Her cries were much more emotional than an amateur’s. But Immediately afterward, she calmed down.
The reason Caroline was so calm was because she had been hurt countless times.
When she cried, there were some signs that she was acting, but the pain from her experiences was there.
