Kirk's eyes narrowed."Are you going to join the design competition too?""Yes." Caroline walked out after washing up. She kept her head down and didn't look at Kirk. After thinking about it, she hid in the kitchen. "What would you like to eat?"Kirk leaned against the glass kitchen door. "Sleep first. I'll buy you breakfast.""I can't." Caroline sniffed. "I have to send food for Eddy too."Kirk's gaze darkened. "You're sending him food?"Kirk had just returned from the hospital. He'd already found out that Eddy had been admitted yesterday."Yes. He's very picky with food." Caroline had experienced it firsthand. Eddy would make a huge fuss if the food wasn't to his liking. "Enough talk. Wait outside; breakfast will be done in a bit."Caroline didn't want to spend time with Kirk under the same roof.Kirk suppressed his displeasure. "Do you still care about him?"The noise of the kitchen hood overpowered Kirk's voice. Caroline didn't hear what he'd said. She started cooking.T

Brie gritted her teeth. She seemed to have realized something and scoffed. She said, "Forget it. What's the point of arguing this with you? Look—"Brie turned around and picked up a velvet box from the table. She flipped it open.She showed off the contents of the box. Inside was a ring with a rare pink diamond.Caroline's brain started buzzing.Before she could react, Brie took out the diamond ring and put it on her index finger. "He bought this especially for me. Isn't it beautiful?"The ring gleamed in the warm light of the room. The sight made Caroline's heart ache. She put a hand over her heart and said, "It's really you!"The other woman Kirk had was really Brie Collins!"Of course it's me." Brie misunderstood Caroline. She was pleased as she said, "Would it be for you instead? Dream on. Just look at yourself. Do you think you're worthy of him?"Caroline's eyes were already starting to sting. She blinked and bit her lip hard. After a second, she said in a low voice, "Ac

Since he'd gotten back, Sean had kept going out to look for good food.Early that morning, he was lazing at home, having breakfast. He still hadn't dug into his fresh croissants when the front door slammed open.That action was filled with rage, so Sean could tell that the person wasn't anyone nice.He put down his croissant. Before he could take a few steps, he saw an angry Kirk."What's up? Did you get into another fight with Ms. Evans?"Kirk cast him a look. His lips were flattened into a thin line.Sean pointed at himself. "Did I offend you?"That couldn't be right! When had he offended Kirk?Kirk's eyes narrowed as he kept silent.Sean really felt defeated. He handed Kirk a croissant. "There's nothing some croissants can't fix. If one can't fix it, have more."Kirk tried to keep his anger controlled. "Sean Yates."Sean sensed that something was amiss. He put his smile away."What's going on? How am I supposed to fix it if you don't tell me?"Kirk shot him a look but s

The policewoman in charge of taking statements glanced at Caroline on the couch. She was quietly fiddling with her laptop.Layla and Caroline had just been in a fight, so they both had various injuries on their bodies.Strictly speaking, though, Layla was in much worse shape than Caroline.Caroline had quite a few scratches on her arms and face. Her clothes were torn. All in all, she looked wretched.It really did look like Caroline had started it.Right then, the team in charge of taking pictures of the scene finished their task. They approached Caroline. "I'm afraid the two of you will have to make a trip down to the station to aid in the investigation."Caroline looked at her laptop with a pained expression. "Alright."Then, the police officers took Layla and Caroline to the police station. Caroline had been placed in a room to wait. This was her first time at a police station. Now that she'd calmed down, Caroline noticed her hands shaking violently.After some time, s

Caroline followed him. "Do you need help?""There's no need." Kirk's motions weren't practiced. It looked like it was his first time cooking.A tablet by the hob was playing a cooking tutorial on repeat."Is this your first time?" Caroline was a little shocked.Kirk replied, "Yes.""I couldn't tell."Although Kirk seemed unaccustomed to it, he seemed competent. That was the most surprising thing.Kirk dumped the finished dish onto a plate. Caroline took the plate out and put it on the table. Then, she sat opposite Kirk."Have a taste."Caroline nodded and started digging into one of the dishes.After taking a bite, Carline laughed. "It doesn't look like much, but it tastes great. You're naturally talented."Kirk paused before serving himself a portion. His expression turned pleasant.Eating in harmony, neither of them talked about the police incident. Still, Caroline had already guessed that Kirk had been the one who'd hired Kai.Kai was someone not even the Morrison fam
