Chapter 388


    Chapter 388


    After getting ready, Caroline walked out of the bathroom to see Kirk still asleep. Sighing in relief,


    she went downstairs, started her car, and drove to work


    Oblivious to her, Kirk was standing by the window and behind the blinds on the second floor when she


    entered the garage. He silently watched her leave.


    Exhausted, he massaged his temples and went back to sit on the edge of the bed.


    Helplessness washed over him, and it weighed on his heart and mind. He wanted to do something


    to change this but found that he couldn’t do anything at all.


    In the end, he picked up his phone and called Charles.


    “Sir,” Charles chirped.


    He knew fairly well that Kirk had been in a foul mood for the past few days, so he had been


    preparing himself to receive his next orders. Hence, he had been able to wake up right away when


    he heard his phone ring.


    “Did you manage to find out anything?” Kirk’s voice was dangerously low, to the point that Charles


    forcefully stopped himself from yawning.


    “There were no CCTVs in the hotel in Macovo, so I could only start by searching through the guest


    list. I haven’t found anything suspicious.”


    “How many days has it been?” Kirk’s voice wasced with sarcasm now.


    Charles straightened his back and fell silent.


    “I’ll give you three more days. If you can’t discover anything, consider yourself fired!”


    “Three-” Charles didn’t even manage to finish his sentence when the call ended.


    He could only grip his phone and smile wryly at what was toe as the employees around him


    turned to stare at him in dismay with their sunken eyes.

    There was nothing Charles could do except give out orders. “He asked us to give him an answer in


    three days. Otherwise, we’ll all be fired.”


    Groans and howls of despair ensued following his sentence.

    The leader of the group took out a cigarette and raised a hand in the air for silence He then rushed


    over to Charles


    “Charles, how are we supposed to find out about anything in just three days?” he said, exasperated


    “More than 300 people came to stay at the hotel. We’d need at least half a month to look into each of


    their backgrounds. We won’t even have time to sleep if that’s even possible.”


    “I know it’s been hard on you people, but this is what he wants,” Charles told him


    The leader frowned and stared at him briefly before saying, “Charles, save us, please. I’ve heard that


    you once made himugh with just a single sentence when he was mad. I’m sure you have a way!*


    Dumbfounded, Charles thought to himself that it wasn’t he who performed that feat, but Caroline


    herself!


    The leader continued, “Charles, you can’t just leave us be!”


    Charles‘ head pounded in his skull. He knew very well that it was highly impossible for them to obtain


    the results that Kirk wanted in just three days‘ time. So he said, “I’ll try.”


    Immediately, leader beamed at him. “I have full faith in you, Charles. You’ve saved us!”


    Charles said to himself that this man couldn’t be more mistaken. If they needed a savior, they had


    to pray to God for Caroline to be on their side.


    He frowned when he thought of her. What had Kirk done to piss her off so badly?


    At the same time, Caroline was surrounded by the higher–ups, who started bombarding her with


    questions the moment she entered the office.

    “Ms. Evans, is it true that Evanson Corp signed a contract with Daphne?”


    “Does this mean that we can’tpete with them in terms of design and publicity now?”


    “Should we stop production? We could stop our orders to minimize the loss.”


    Caroline rested a hand against her forehead. She was lethargic enough since she couldn’t sleep


    wellst night.


    Now, these people’s voices sounded like flies buzzing all around her, and this only served to irk


    her further.

    After taking a few deep breaths topose herself, she said, ‘Do you even know what you’re


    talking about? If we went to battle like this, we’d be dead before we knew it,” she told them.


    The best thing we can do is settle our tasks Sales department, have you discussed things with


    the stores?”


    It was her turn to question them. “PR, have you figured out how to increase publicity? Design


    department, have youe out with the drafts?”


    As she spoke, she nced around at those around her. Her eyes were stern, and her face was grim.


    The others finally shut up.
