    Caroline noticed their expressions and continued, “He’s… my husband’s former boss.


    “The reason why he wanted to help me isplicated. Simply put, he almost made me and my


    husband get divorced. So he helped me because he felt guilty.”


    Howard asked uncertainly, “Are you telling the truth?”


    Caroline sighed, “I have no reason to lie to you. Think about it. If I was close with Eddy’s second


    uncle, would I still have had to beg for help with Evans Group?”


    Caroline’s words convinced Howard, but not Jude, who knew very well that Kirk wasn’t a good


    person. (2


    Even if Kirk had caused P


    in Caroline’s marriage, he would be happy to see it happen. In


    other words, he couldn’t have done this to make it up to Caroline and her husband.


    However, Jude couldn’t deduce Kirk’s reasons for helping Caroline, especially not during a


    dangerous moment like this.


    Howard guffawed. “I don’t care if you’re close with Eddy’s second uncle. Anyway, one of us has to


    1. go. I have nothing to be afraid of.”


    As he spoke, he pointed the gun at Caroline and was ready to pull the trigger.


    Caroline’s heart stopped, and her eyes widened when she saw Edith, who hade behind


    Howard at some point. Then, she quickly looked away. She couldn’t let Howard find out.


    Enduring her racing heart, she tried to divert Howard’s attention.


    “Wait, Howard! Have you really thought this through? If you kill me, there’s no going back! Think


    about your business! You can always bring yourpany back to the top as long as you want to!”


    Howard sneered, “Hmph! I can’t believe you never thought I wouldn’t retaliate when you people


    ruined my business. Let me tell you something–it’s already toote.”


    Even if Kirk announced that he wouldn’t stop Collins Group’s business anymore, no one would


    cooperate with them. The Morrisons might even crush their business a second time.


    Howard knew he had zero chance of starting over. After thinking this through, he no longer


    hesitated. He pulled the trigger decisively.

    At this moment, he heard Edith’s voice behind him, “Madam, watch out!”

    Only then did Howard realize there was a fourth person was in the room. He turned his head and saw


    the baton in Edith’s hand. Then, he raised his hand to block it.


    However, the bullet had already left the gun. The small and round bullet flew in Caroline’s direction.


    At this moment, everything seemed to slow down. Everyone’s moments became sluggish, and even


    Edith’s voice was drawn out.


    However, Caroline couldn’t hear anything. She could only watch as the bullet flew in her direction.


    When the bullet was about to hit her forehead, someone pushed her away, and she fell to the ground.

    Then, she heard a snap and the sound of the bullet piercing flesh.


    With wide eyes, Caroline looked at Jude, who had fallen to the ground before her. Then, she yelled,


    “Grandpa!”


    The bullet had hit Jude’s chest. Jude clutched his chest, trying hard to take out the photo in his pocket


    and give it to Caroline. However, he could only move two trembling fingers.


    “Grandpa…” Caroline cried while holding Jude, who was covered in blood.


    “Hang on! I’ll take you to the hospital right away.”


    “Carrie …” Jude rasped.


    “Please don’t say anything, Grandpa. I’ll take you to the hospital.”


    Filled with grief, Caroline took out her phone from her pocket with difficulty. Just as she was


    about to make a call, she saw Kirk and his entourage rushing into the vi.
