Chapter 284

Caroline regarded Kirk seriously. After a long while, she hugged his arm and looked into his eyes. “Kirk, tell me. Are you quitting because of me or because of yourself?”

Kirk smiled slightly. “Why do you ask that?”

“Because if it’s for my sake, I hope you won’t make such a rash decision. But if it’s for your own sake, I will support you unconditionally, no matter what you choose.”

Kirk paused. At that moment, he realized that what he saw as a simple matter was a huge gamble for Caroline.

He gently put his head on her shoulder. Warmth spread over him, and emotions overwhelmed his heart.

“Even if the company suffers losses?”

“That’s okay.” Caroline smiled toward Kirk.

“I trust you. If you can handle so many big shots so easily, you can definitely do this!”

When he saw how much Carolien trusted him, he suddenly found himself at a loss for words. He could only kiss her forehead gently and say, “I won’t let you down.”

Caroline laughed as she got up. “Let’s eat.”

Kirk passed Carolione some cutlery. After settling the roiling emotions within him, he asked, “How’s it going with Evans Group?”

Caroline replied, “I’ve decided to head there tomorrow.”

“What about Thorne Corp?”

“I’ve already handed in my resignation, but Mr. Hawkins hasn’t approved it. I’ve been so busy with Evans Group’s affairs lately, I don’t think I’ll have much time to go back to Thorne Corp.”

Caroline felt really bad. “Thorne Corp has been very good to me. By leaving so suddenly, I feel like I’m letting Mr. Hawkins down.”

“People have to strive for better things. There’s nothing to feel bad about when it comes to your career.”

Caroline hummed in acknowledgement.

“What plans do you have after taking over Evans Group?”

Caroline was stunned for a moment. Then, she chuckled.

I’ll definitely be able to take over the company?” She really wasn’t completely sure
