It was already 3:00 pm by the time Caroline finished the discussions with the factory. Once she left the factory, she hurriedly turned her phone on. Marina still hadn't messaged her. Instead, she found voice messages from Gwen.Gwen said, "I don't know what happened. According to my dad, a bunch of people dragged him out of the car when he was getting off work. They let him go after beating him up. "With the way he flirts with people, he probably offended someone he shouldn't. That's why he got beaten up in revenge. It's hilarious."Then, she asked, "Carol, do you want to go out for dinner? I'll treat you."Caroline was smiling as she listened to the voice messages. She texted, "Sure." Then, she went back to the chat with Marina. She sent a message that read, "Have you found anything yet?"Marina replied instantly, saying, "Not yet." Right after, she also sent an emoji that communicated confusion. "It's so weird. I can only find information about his relationship status, no

Caroline completely ignored Kirk and spent the whole of dinner talking to Gwen.Gwen used the same tactic. However, when she found out that Sean had hired the men to beat her father up, she couldn't resist widening her eyes. "You really did that?"Sean analyzed the look on Gwen's face. When he saw that she wasn't angry, he smiled and said, "Yes."Caroline couldn't help but look over at Sean too. "Why did you do that?" Gwen asked in confusion.Sean replied, "It's public responsibility to maintain public order."Gwen couldn't help but splutter out a laugh. After a moment, she stopped eating and asked, "Then … do you have a video of what happened?"Sean had a playful look in his eyes. He seemed like he was getting what he wanted. "I do. It's at my place. Do you want to come over and watch it?"After some debate, Gwen couldn't resist the temptation. She bit her lip and asked, "Do I have to go to yours to watch it?""Yes. It's proof of a crime, after all. I'm afraid that bri

Instinctually, Caroline wanted to say no. But thinking of how the perpetrator hadn't left any traces at all and hadn't stolen anything, she became anxious. Who knew if the perpetrator would come back?With Kirk there, at least he could help ensure her safety. Caroline wasn't someone who would take risks with her life.Seeing Caroline silent, Kirk made himself comfortable. "It's really late. You should head to bed early. I'll have someone come and clean up tomorrow."Caroline hummed in acknowledgement before going into the bathroom.After washing up, she came out to find that Kirk had already cleaned up the couch. Sensing her gaze, Kirk looked up and smiled. "I'll sleep on the couch tonight. Don't lock your room door. If something happens, give me a shout, and I'll rush over."Caroline looked at the couch without saying anything.The couch was only about five feet long. There was still a pile of stuff on it that hadn't been cleared away. Kirk was more than six feet tall. I

Jack's reaction was very solemn. He replied, "Please don't joke. She's a colleague at my company. She's just a young woman, and she doesn't have a boyfriend. If you say that, people might misunderstand."The instructor was taken aback. After a moment, she turned and apologized to Cheryl. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked."Actually, it was a common joke in Easton, so Cheryl didn't take it to heart. But seeing how serious Jack had been, she became flustered. She suddenly felt like she was seen as something precious.Outside the classroom, Cheryl followed behind Jack. "Jack, Caroline asked me to invite you to her place tonight to watch Sonia's new show. Do you want to come?"Jack didn't think much about it. "Sure."When they got to the elevator, Cheryl looked at Jack's broad and solid back. She said softly, "Actually … you didn't have to be so serious just now.""What?""That instructor was just joking."Jack tilted his head and said, equally somberly, "I know, but I only cons

Cheryl looked at Caroline in disbelief. "Caroline, you must be joking, right? Your husband's so handsome, and he's a manager at Morrison Corp. Do you know how many people would want to marry him?"Caroline really didn't have a clue.After Cheryl explained things, Caroline finally understood that Kirk was an exceptional man when it came to ordinary people. He was a very successful man.Caroline had only considered Kirk an ordinary person because she had been comparing him to men from wealthy families, those with riches that had been accumulating for multiple generations. Indeed, when compared to such men, Kirk didn't have many advantages."Besides, women now have to look at more than what's in men's wallets. We also have to consider their looks. With your husband's looks, countless people would throw money at him even if he was broke."Caroline was confused by this, and it showed on her face. "I can tell that you don't pay attention to what goes on in the entertainment indust
