Chapter 2647

When Caroline returned to the Fisher Enterprise, her takeout had also arrived.

She entered the office building while carrying her takeout.

The employees working overtime in the company were surprised to see Caroline returning at this hour,

but they did not inquire further.

In her office, Caroline enjoyed her meal and then poured herself a cup of water. Sitting back at her

desk, she sent a message to Darren.

“The plan was perfect.”

After receiving a reply from Darren, she promptly deleted the message and reminded him to do the

same.

“How is Mr. Clark?”

Darren sent a voice message.

“Not good at all. He’s in a miserable state, and his marriage with my mom is definitely shattered.

However, he doesn’t dare to divorce, and my mom doesn’t want to divorce at the age of seventy.

They’ll probably endure each other for the time being.”

For her mother, it was still a significant blow.

Hunter's mistreatment, orchestrating harassment, and his absence of fatherly affection contributed to

their strained relationship.

Given his lack of paternal feelings, there was no reason for her to reciprocate with daughterly love

either.

Originally, as father and daughter without any emotional connection, they could lead peaceful lives

without interfering with each other.

Hunter was biased toward Celine and could not accept Caroline as the successor to the Fisher family.

He always schemed against her, and although there were things about him she could tolerate, planning

for her to be sexually harassed was out of line.

“My three good brothers and Celine were also punished by my mom. Consider my frustration vented.”

Darren laughed. “They had it coming. Unfortunately, I was not there to witness their misfortune.”

“They don’t dare to go out these days.”

Caroline was in a very cheerful mood.

For several days after, she did not have to see the faces of those people in the company.

“Have you eaten?”novelbin

“Just finished. I ordered takeout. I didn’t want to eat at home. I’m in a good mood and wanted to eat a

little more. The atmosphere at home is so bad. If I eat a bit more, my mom will say I’m gloating.”

Darren smiled, but felt sorry for her, saying, “Miss, you could’ve told me. I’d prepare and send food to

you.”

He was aware that Caroline was summoned home directly by Belinda so he assumed Caroline would

have her meals at home, but unexpectedly, she was hiding at the company to eat takeout.

“Occasional takeouts won’t hurt. Many people don’t have time to dine out and rely on takeouts. In the

past... I’ve done the same many times.”

When she started her business, she was so busy that she didn’t have time to eat out, so she relied on

takeouts for a long time.

“I am your lifelong assistant, taking care of you is one of my responsibilities. If you have anything in the

future, just let me know, and I will arrange it.”

Since Darren became an apprentice and was assigned to Caroline, his life belonged to her.

Apart from solving various problems for Caroline, taking good care of her was also his duty.

“I’m busy now. When I’m done, and if you’re free, come over. I’ll treat you to butter escargot and a

couple of beers. It’s been a long time since I had those.”

She used to frequent food trucks with friends or colleagues for late-night suppers, often ordering a few

appetizers and bottles of beer, and butter escargot had always been a must-have.

Later, she was found by Belinda, who told her that she was the true heiress of the Fisher family. She

reluctantly underwent a paternity test several times, proving that she was indeed Belinda’s biological

daughter.

She was brought back to the Fisher family and from then on, she identified as Ms. Caroline Fisher.

She started patronizing high-end places. It was not that she despised food trucks or street foods now,

but her mother wanted her to discard her old lifestyle and quickly integrate into the upper-class way of

life. Occasionally, if she wanted to eat Chinese takeouts, she had to do it discreetly, afraid of being

seen by others.

However, Caroline felt much more relaxed when she was with Darren. Whatever she did, he would not

object or remind her to keep up appearances. As long as she was happy, that was all that mattered.

That was why she invited Darren to join her for a late-night meal.

Darren replied, “Alright, I’ll come to pick you up in a while.”
