“What’s wrong?” Sean asked.

Gwen also noticed that Kirk wasn’t in a good mood. She asked, “Is it about Carol?”

Kirk glanced at them and said calmly, “It’s nothing. Don’t tell Carrie anything if you hear something on

the phone. She’s been tired all day. and I want her to rest.”

Gwen and Sean looked at each other and nodded obediently.

When Caroline yelled that dinner was ready, everyone enthusiastically set the table with plates and

cutlery.

“Eat up,” Caroline said. She was the last to sit down.

Kirk was the first to move. He picked up a piece of halibut and put it on Caroline’s plate. “Good job,

darling.”

Caroline glared at him. She said, “Sean and Gwen are still here.”

Gwen and Sean said in unison, “Don’t worry about us. We’d rather eat crap than let him give us food.”

Caroline couldn’t help laughing at how in tune they were with each other. “It seems that Sean’s

probation will be over pretty soon.”

Sean said proudly, “Look, Kirk, Carrie has a way with her words.”

The four of them enjoyed a lovely meal, and time passed quickly.

After dinner, Gwen and Sean were in charge of cleaning up. They left after they were done.

Before they left, Gwen had initially wanted to tell Caroline she could ask her for help dealing with Sarah

if she needed it. However, when she remembered what Kirk had said, she remained silent and got into

Sean’s car.

Back in the villa, Caroline was lying in Kirk’s arms. They were watching the stars from the third–floor

balcony.

Kirk had just brought up the grapes after washing them.

The lights painted the balcony a warm yellow. It looked very romantic under the night sky.

“What took you so long?” Caroline pointed to the stars in the sky, asking. “Hey, does that look like the

Cassiopeia constellation?”

Kirk followed her line of sight to look at the sky while he kept busy. “Probably not.”

Caroline turned to look at him, only to realize that he was peeling grapes. Kirk’s fingers were slender

and beautiful, and his movements were elegant and graceful. She looked away, blushing.

Kirk fed Caroline a grape. With a mischievous glint in his eyes, he kissed her. Hugging her, he sat up

on the chair.

Caroline kicked him in embarrassment as the heat spread between both of them. “How did you learn to

seduce someone?” she asked, her voice as quiet as a mouse’s.

Kirk clearly heard her in the quiet night, but he still teased her, “Huh? What are you talking about,

babe?”

Caroline pinched his waist, knowing that he was teasing her. Then, seeing that he was indifferent, she

bit his arm angrily.

She wasn’t too hard or too soft on him. It didn’t hurt at all. But he still hissed and pinned Caroline

underneath him.

When Caroline tried to retort, Kirk kissed her on the lips. Her whines and protests died down as the

stars glittered in the sky.

After Gwen returned home, she finally understood why Kirk had told them not to tell Caroline anything,

no matter what happened.

After two days, the video of Sarah accusing Caroline had become even more popular.

Now, everyone was criticizing Caroline for being a disloyal daughter. Their criticisms were so

unpleasant that even a bystander like Gwen couldn’t handle them.

“Are you worried about Caroline?”

Gwen sat up in bed in surprise. “You can tell?”

“Yeah, but you don’t have to worry. Kirk and Caroline will take care of it,” Sean replied.

Gwen typed, “But this is a huge deal!”

“Kirk can handle anything, even If heaven turns upside down. So, go to sleep,” Sean assured her.

“You seem so confident in Kirk. You don’t sound like you just met him. You sound like a friend who grew

up with him.”

Sean was speechless. This was the disadvantage of falling in love with the friend of his friend’s wife.

Not only did he have to hide his own secret, but he also had to help his friend hide his secret.

“No, we really just met.” Sean turned over in bed as he typed, “I’ll sing you a nursery rhyme if you can’t

sleep.”

Gwen’s text came soon enough. “No thanks. I’m going to sleep.”

Seeing her reject him so quickly, Sean smiled slightly. With him and Gwen’s relationship, it was as if he

had switched roles.

In this relationship, Gwen was always in the lead, and he could only join the fray whenever she did.

In the past, he had always called the shots in the relationship. He decided when to start his relationship

and when to end it.

Now that Gwen was taking the lead, he finally experienced what it was like to be on the edge.

Gwen was unpredictable, just like Sean had been before. God was probably punishing him, but he was

kind of happy.

Seeing that Gwen wouldn’t reply, Sean curled his lips into a small smile.

Meanwhile, Gwen still couldn’t sleep. She was worrying about both Caroline and herself. Sean seemed

to be serious about her. Those earnest feelings made it surreal for her.

He was a gifted prodigy in the medical field, while she was just a child from an ordinary, well–off family.

It would be great if Sean was just a regular employee like Kirk.

The night slipped away quietly.

At 8 am the following day, Caroline received a call from Brittany. She had picked the correct time to call

Caroline since the latter was just resting after breakfast.

*Ms. Evans, have you seen what’s happening online?”

Caroline opened Google and saw that her name was the most trending name in the entire app. When

she opened a forum, it was filled with insults directed at her.

Caroline hurred, “Yeah.”

“Do you want to speed up your plans, Ms. Evans?”

“No.” Caroline had thought about this situation a long time ago.

She said, “There should be a lot of people forming an angry mob at my workplace today. Are you and

your people ready to film it Ms. Emerson?

Brittany was shocked once again. Caroline was ruthless. She had even gotten her own PR manager

involved in the crossfire.

“I got it,” Brittany said.

When Kirk walked out with coffee, he saw Caroline massaging her temples. He put down the coffee

and squeezed Caroline’s hands. He even gently rubbed her temples for her..

Caroline exhaled. “I’m going to work.”

“Do you want some time off?”
