Gwen wanted to flee, but she knew that she'd give herself away by doing so. With a reluctant heart, she walked behind Caroline. Lowering her voice, she asked, "Why is he here?"A soft smile hung on Caroline's face. She pursed her lips and said, "He's kind of pitiful since he doesn't have many friends here in the country."Caroline turned and looked right into Gwen's eyes. "Gwen, are you hiding something from me?" Gwen instantly looked away. "N—no." "Really? Why do I feel like there's something off with you two?""That's not true!" Gwen denied it adamantly. From the corner of her eye, she noticed Sean coming their way, and she straightened her back. He leaned over and grabbed the handle of her luggage. "Give it to me.""No need—" Gwen took a huge step backward, as if he were an electric cable that would electrocute her. Then, she realized that she had overreacted. Hastily, she added, "I can do it on my own." Seeing how awkward Gwen was made Caroline giggle. She told Gwen,

Caroline saw it all and glanced at Kirk with mixed feelings. "We should head upstairs." Not only was her sentence directed at Kirk, but it also served as a signal to Sean. "Mhmm." Kirk hummed as he took the juicer with him. "Let's go."Gwen rushed forth to walk in front of the line, followed by Caroline and Kirk. Sean was the last to follow. When they entered the elevator, he was still busy with his phone. He kept receiving notifications on his phone, and it annoyed Gwen. "Girls these days surely are proactive." Only after she spoke did she realize that her voice had been dripping with sarcasm. Embarrassed, she wished she could find a hole in the ground and bury herself in it. However, Caroline held her hand gently in hers and said, "That's right. The manner of education they receive is much different than it was in our times. It's only natural that we're different." Gwen glanced at Caroline gratefully. Nobody spoke a word afterward. Their rooms were on the third floor, so

Gwen's mother was a rather conservative and old-fashioned woman. Despite the fact that her husband had cheated on her multiple times, she still refused to divorce him. Up until now, their relationship was still stuck in the never-ending cycle of cheating, discovery, filing for divorce, denial, and back again. It had affected Gwen so much that she would always break up with any man she had just started a relationship with. Gwen forced a smile. "You said 'maybe'. I'm not that lucky, and I don't like to be tied to something. I prefer the feeling the chase gives me." Unsure of how to respond, Caroline simply stared at Gwen, who tried her best to put up a strong front. "Stop talking about me." Gwen tried to sound cheerful. "What about you and Kirk? Have you two patched up?" "Mhmm." Caroline hummed and said, "I plan to give it a try." Now, Gwen looked at her with envy in her eyes. "Carol, you're so much braver than me." Caroline smiled softly. "I'm not brave. It's just that I

The gloom on Kirk's face was so apparent that Sean instantly realized his mistake. Hastily, he added, "However, sincerity rules the heart. One day, she just might be so touched and accept the fact that you're one of the Morrisons." In spite of what Sean said, Kirk's expression didn't change for the better. In the end, Sean had to flee from the room to avoid getting beaten to a pulp. "I'm leaving," he said, darting away. When Caroline walked out of the room next door, she saw Sean in the corridor. After entering her room, she asked Kirk, "Was Sean here just now?" Kirk stared at the cherry juice in the juicer and kept quiet. As she approached him, she realized just how unsettling his aura was. "What's wrong?" She asked, her tone cautious. Kirk raised his eyes to meet hers. The piercing look in his eyes vanished like morning dew the moment he saw her. "The cherry juice is ready."However, Caroline looked him up and down and asked, "Are you okay?""I'm fine," Kirk told her

A shadow fell across Jude's face as he started mumbling to himself. "Kirk's been married for at least three months now. Why did he only buy her a house now? Tell me, Simon, does this woman even exist? Or did Kirk hire her to put on a show for me?" Confused, Simon asked, "But why would he do that?"Jude gripped his cane. It took him a moment to respond. "Because the woman he married is Caroline!" Now that made Simon inhale sharply. "Mr. Morrison Senior, how is that possible? Ms. Evans and Mr. Kirk have never met each other.""I hope so. Perhaps I was overthinking it." Jude let out a long breath. "Mr. Morrison Senior, if you're so worried about it, why don't you simply call Ms. Evans to make sure?""No way!" Jude rejected his idea outright. Kirk was highly alert about this matter the last time they met. If Jude were to ask Caroline directly about this, it would surely arouse Kirk's suspicions.Jude shut his eyes tightly.The image of a young woman in a wedding gown emerged

Sean was stunned. He found it hard to believe just what was going on in Mia's mind. He was so dumbfounded that he forgot to free his arm from hers. "Mia, are you sure about this?'Mia shushed him and took a few steps closer to him. "She's looking at you." A smile made its way onto Sean's face. "Really?" he asked, pleasantly surprised. "Yep." "Then how does she look? Is she upset?" "She doesn't look happy, alright." "So, it worked then?" "I think so," said Mia as she looked right into his eyes with a dazzling smile. Caroline's brows were knit tightly together as she watched Mia and Sean from afar. She cocked her head to one side to see Gwen walking into the distance. Then, she turned to Kirk, who was beside her. "What's Sean doing?"Kirk had been enjoying spending time with Caroline by his side. He was holding hands with her as they walked side by side, much to his delight. Hearing her mention another man's name—his good friend's name, at that—made him very displea

There was a bar near the hostel, and there weren't many people there since it was only 5 pm. Sean got them a spot in one of the corners of the bar. Then, he ordered a dozen bottles of beer, and started drinking. Looking dejectedly at Kirk, he asked, "Hey, do you think Gwen has no feelings for me at all?"Kirk was busy scrolling through his tablet. He didn't even raise his eyes to look at Sean when he replied, "What makes you think she likes you?""Because I'm a good-looking, genius doctor." Sean pressed his fingers against his temples in distress. Seeing Kirk fully hooked on his tablet, Sean strained his neck to peek at the screen. "What are you looking at?"Kirk didn't try to cover the screen. When Sean saw what was shown there, his expression immediately changed to one of shock and horror. "The person who took Caroline to Saint Pierre was her mother?"Even beasts would look after their young. Caroline's mother was atrocious!Kirk continued looking through the information

Kirk didn't know what the notification was about. However, he had a few guesses after seeing Caroline's reaction. He raised a hand to pat her on the back. "What is it?" She handed him her phone right after. Kirk glanced at the phone and said, "It seems like you aren't surprised at all." Smiling, she explained, "Sarah called me the day I was taken to the hotel to meet Brie. I didn't connect the dots then. With this, I finally know why Brie had been bold enough to do that. "She wasn't the one who took me there, so she knew she wouldn't have to take the blame if something happened to me." Yet somehow an accident had occurred, making Brie go nuts. Kirk took Caroline into his arms. "Are you upset?" he asked. Caroline shook her head and rested it against his shoulder. "A few days ago, Sarah came to me. She asked me to persuade Grandpa to agree to Eddy and Layla seeing each other. I wondered why she would act like that …"Then, she looked down at her phone and snickered. "I
