Jude’s eyes widened at Simon’s words. “Simon, what proof do you have for that theory of yours?”
Simon hurriedly stepped forward and rubbed Jude’s back. “Sir, please calm down. I’m just making a guess. I don’t
have any proof.”
Jude calmed down slightly at his words. “Then tell me, what made you think this way?”
Simon explained, “Sir, don’t you think it’s weird? Ms. Evans had zero help behind the scenes. There’s no way she
could have beaten Evanson Corp, a company that Morrison Corp funded, at a complete disadvantage.”
He continued, “Also, Mr. Kirk and Ms. Dawson said they lived together, but Mr. Kirk rarely goes to her house.
“So where does he live when he is in Easton? Why can’t we find any information about him? The most suspicious

“However, Sonia, someone Ms. Evans values, ended up getting it instead. Since we can’t find
anything about Ms. Evans‘ husband and Mr. Kirk, he could be …” Simon explained as he looked at Jude’s expression.
Jude frowned, remaining silent. After five minutes, he ordered, “If that’s the case, go and investigate Evans Group’s
current funds. See if any outside finances are coming in.
“Also, find out the casting situation from the casting team. If Kirk is really Carrie’s husband, he’ll definitely leave

something unexpected.”
“Yes, sir.” Simon left the room.

“Why not? I’m the reason you both reconciled, after all.”
Kirk took a few steps forward. “Are you here to see Gwen?”
Sean chuckled. “There’s no need to point out the obvious. Besides, I was the one who skillfully
manipulated Caroline when she called you on the phone back then.”
Kirk looked back at him.
Sean hurriedly said with a smile, “All right, sure. You recorded your lines in advance so I could
play them on the call.
“Even so, I should be rewarded for my efforts, so don’t be so petty. You already got your girl back

Kirk walked to the elevator. “How are you sure that Caroline invited Gwen?”
Sean froze. “I’m sure she’ll invite her. You two have made up. There’s no way Gwen wouldn’t show
up for such a big thing.”
Kirk looked at him silently.
Sean panicked immediately. He asked anxiously, “Don’t tell me she isn’t coming.”
“Don’t you feel stupid for asking that right now?”
Sean grabbed Kirk’s arm. “Kirk, you have to help me out. I can’t see Gwen at all right now.”
The elevator had already arrived at Caroline’s floor while they talked.
Kirk knocked on Caroline’s door. “There’s nothing I can do.”
“I’m sure there is!” As soon as Sean finished speaking, the door opened.
When Caroline saw Sean standing outside the door, she said in surprise, “You’re here, Sean.”
