Caroline prodded, saying, “Tell me. No matter what you say, I won’t get mad.”

“Actually, I think that if I had found out earlier on that you wanted to compete for the position of the Evans Group’s

CEO, I might not have supported you. You know, Layla had Eddy’s support. With just that alone, she could have

gotten the shareholders to pick her.”

Gwen continued, “But Kirk is different. He believed in you from start to finish. He probably didn’t even voice a word

of doubt. It doesn’t matter if it’s because of his superb observation skills or his

trust in you as the woman he loves.

“What I know is that a true married couple will always support each other. They wouldn’t

sabotage each other, like my parents.”

“I’m sorry,” Caroline murmured.

“It’s okay.”

Gwen took a breath and continued, “But you. Why are you suddenly asking this?”

Caroline looked at Gwen and blinked. “Did you find any witnesses?”

When Caroline brought this up, Gwen frowned in annoyance.

“It’s not that easy. But the hotel manager gave us a list of all the guests. As for the ski slopes, only

those who stay here are allowed to get in.

“As long as we cross–check one by one, we should be able to find some witnesses. By the way, you

haven’t answered my question.”

Caroline smiled. They each had something to worry about, so she didn’t want to add to Gwen’s

troubles. “It’s nothing. Maybe it’s because I’m sick, so I’ve been thinking too much lately.”

Meanwhile, in the next room, Sean spoke up hesitantly after a long silence. “Are you sure that

Caroline knows you’re the Mr. Morrison of SY Group?”

Kirk frowned, a vein on his forehead pulsing wildly. Even so, he patiently answered, “I told you

that I’m not sure. But she asked me if I’ve ever lied to her. If it’s not about this, what else could it

be about?”

Sean poured Kirk a glass of wine. “Then what’s your plan moving forward?”

Kirk didn’t reach out for the wine glass. Instead, he closed his eyes and slumped weakly onto the

couch. “It’s not what I plan to do now that matters. It’s what Caroline wants to do.”

“Do you know what you look like now?” Sean teased, taking a sip of the wine.

Kirk ignored him

Sean said without a care, “You look like someone waiting for a death sentence.”

As he said this, he leaned into the couch next to Kirk Lowly, he said, “And Caroline’s your judge.”

Kirk glanced at Sean, and the latter let out a mocking laugh.

“You’re really happy about this.”

Sean shrugged. For once, he could be proud in front of Kirk. He puffed up his chest and said,

Indeed, I am.”

Kirk was dumbfounded by Sean’s response.

“But don’t get too worried about this,” Sean said by Kirk’s side.

“At least she said she wants to go back to Easton, not that she wants you to leave. That means you

have a chance.”

Kirk disagreed with Sean on this point.

“Then we’ll be heading back to Easton tomorrow. What about you?”

The smile on Sean’s face disappeared. “Not so soon, I think. We still have to find witnesses.”

Kirk didn’t say anything more. He walked out of the room and went back next door.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Caroline trembled.

Gwen said, “That’s probably Kirk and Sean coming back.”

Kirk came in just as Gwen said this. When he saw Caroline’s eyes open where she lay on the bed,

his throat worked.

Gwen noticed the hint of awkwardness in his reaction. She smiled and said, “I’ll leave first.”

Then, she walked out and closed the door behind her.

After the door closed, Kirk turned back to face Caroline. Weakly, he called, “Darling.‘

Caroline’s heart was filled with bitterness. She turned her head to look at the moon outside, not

daring to face Kirk.

She was scared that she would waver and make a mistake if she looked at his face. She was

scared that she would believe that he hadn’t lied to her without basing that decision on actual

facts.

Seeing that Caroline wasn’t reacting too agitatedly, Kirk followed the urge to step closer to the

bed. He bent down and reached out a hand to poke Caroline’s cheek.
