Chapter 178
A long while later, Caroline finally came back to herself and pushed Kirk away. Her voice was
softer as she said, “My legs are numb.”
Kirk stepped back and bent to pick Caroline up. “Then let’s go home.”
Caroline looked at Kirk through the warm yellow streetlights.
Kirk’s gaze was deep and determined. His eyes were perfect.
If she had met Kirk before Eddy, she would have surely fallen for him.
She would have sacrificed everything for him without regret, just as she had eight years ago.
But she wasn’t that person anymore.
She wasn’t the same brave girl as eight years ago.
She leaned her head gently into Kirk’s embrace, silently listening to his strong heartbeat. She didn’t wa
nt to think about the future.
At least this moment was real.
Since Caroline had a few drinks, she fell asleep as soon as she got home.
Kirk carried her to the master bedroom on the second floor.
By the time he
covered her with a blanket, the red marks on her neck had faded. Still, Kirk’s heart tightened because o
f it.
He took out his phone and called Charles.
“Get someone to teach Eddy a lesson.”
Charles was confused by this. “Sir, do you mean your nephew?”
“Yes.”
Charles paused for a moment before saying, “Alright, sir.”
Although he really wanted to know why, Charles knew better than to ask questions he shouldn’t.
“Did you find the person I asked you about?”
Kirk stood on the balcony. Bathed in moonlight, the shadows made his straight figure seem to sway.
Charles quickly reacted. He said, “We found her. We’re training her now.”

Kirk nodded slightly. Then he said, “How are the discussions going for the purchase of those entertain
ment companies?”
“They’re in progress. We can make an announcement next month at the latest.”
“Good.”
Kirk hung up and walked back into the bedroom.
In the moonlight, Caroline’s sleeping face was peaceful. Her tensed forehead was relaxed now. She didn’t look as disdainful as she had before.
Kirk smiled and bent down to kiss her red lips.
Meanwhile, Sean had taken Gwen home. She was currently supporting herself against the toilet bowl a
nd puking her guts out.
After she finished, she seemed to be more sober.
When she thought of Sean outside, her face turned red.
Right then, there was a knock on the door.
“Gwen, are you okay?” Sean felt very worried. (1
When he’d found out that Caroline and Gwen were together, Sean had dragged Kirk over to the restaur
ant.
As soon as he’d spotted Gwen, Sean had felt something he couldn’t describe.
It was as if he had undergone an arduous journey and found the delicacy that he had always wanted.
When Gwen didn’t respond inside the toilet, Sean started panicking. He turned the door handle. ” Gwennovelbin
…”
The next second, Gwen pulled the door open. She said listlessly, “I’m not dead yet.”
Sean let out a breath. “I brought you some medicine. You’ll feel better after taking them.” Gwen looked
up and glanced at Sean. After that, she followed him to the living room. There was a glass of water and
some pills on the coffee table.
“I bought some candy a few days ago. If the medicine is bitter, you can take this first.”
Sean handed a jar of candy to Gwen. The seal hadn’t even been broken yet.
Gwen stared at Sean.
Realizing it belatedly, Sean hurriedly tore off the seal and handed the jar to Gwen.
