Chapter 707

When they got to the balcony, Sean didn’t say anything.

Unable to stand it, Kirk asked, “What did you ask me out here to talk about?”

Looking at Kirk, Sean burst into laughter, which only caused Kirk to look even grimmer.

“Kirk, you should really look at yourself in the mirror right now.” Still laughing, he continued, The way you look now,

not even Charles would be able to recognize you, even if he’s by your side

all the time.”

Kirk pressed his lips together and didn’t say anything. After a moment, he said, “I’m not in the

mood to joke with you right now.”

Leaning against the railing, Sean looked into the distance.

“I know that. And I’m not joking with you. Ever since you found out the kind of landmine your uncle left you before

his death, you’ve been worried to bits. I can see all that. You might not admit

it, but you can’t say it’s not true.”

“What in the world are you trying to say?”

Sean turned to look at Kirk. “Kirk, you’re exceptional at management. Plus, you’re so smart too.

Are you sure you don’t know what I’m talking about?”

By now, Kirk’s mouth was a thin line. After a long while, he spoke again, his tone much more

somber, “I know. Right now, I need to be calm more than ever. You don’t know how worried I get.

whenever I hear something strange when I’m lying beside Caroline.”

He continued, “That’s how I know she’s having another nightmare. That feeling of helplessness… I used to think I

could control everything until I met Carrie. That was when I learned I couldn’t control anything at all.”

This fear of losing Caroline … It was something Kirk had never shared with anyone before. He could only talk about

such things with Sean.

Sean sighed. “Love is such a powerful and dangerous thing. Kirk, as your friend and someone who has troubles

because of love, I can’t give you any suggestions. As a doctor, I have some advice.”

He clarified, “Michael Caldwell is the best psychiatrist. If he can’t cure Caroline’s condition, no one can. During

treatment, the worst that could happen would be for any external influences to

Kik’s gaze darkened After a while, his tightly clenched fists loosened.

Seeing this, Sean patted his shoulder.

Once Caroline accepted that she needed treatment, Kirk helped her set up her first session.

This first session was a simple one, involving some psychiatric assessments. There was no pain involved in any part

of it. However, when she came out of the room, Caroline noticed Kirk’s back

straining as he sat up straight, his hands covered in sweat.

“You seem even more nervous than I am,” Caroline teased with a smile. However, she knew better

than anyone that the pain would start when the treatment plan was set. “Don’t worry. Look, aren’t

I perfectly fine right now?”

Kirk caressed Caroline’s hair. “Yes. Do you want to go to the company or go home?”

“The company.”

After staying at home for so long, Caroline thought she’d better head to the company for a change of scenery.

Maybe then, she would have a change in mood, too.

Although she was already being honest with Kirk, she still hadn’t gotten into the right emotional

headspace.

Now, she only had two choices. Either she would quietly accept treatment and take away the pain. that remained in

her heart, or she would marry Eddy and no longer feel guilty about letting Jude

down.

However, Caroline would rather die than choose the second option. She didn’t want to give up her happiness

because she felt bad about Jude.
