It didn’t take long for Liam to message Caroline about the time and place of their meeting.
She searched the location online and found that it was a simple coffee shop in the northern suburbs
However, he wanted them to meet at 9 am the next day. It seemed as though he was in a rush for
them to meet.
She and her employees would have to prepare the contract by tomorrow morning. Apparently, they
would have to work overtime.
Caroline pressed a button on her desk and asked Cheryl to come over to her office. A moment later,
Cheryl arrived.
“Cheryl, tell the legal department that they will have to work overtime. We must get the contract
done by 9 am tomorrow.”
“Is it that urgent?”
“Yes. Sloan’s father called me and said that he wanted to meet me at 9 am to discuss it tomorrow.
We should prepare the contract beforehand so that we’re prepared in case anything pops up.”
“Alright then. I’ll tell them about this right away,” said Cheryl as she turned to leave.
Just then, Caroline stood up and stopped Cheryl in her tracks.
“Never mind. I’ll tell them about it myself. We can save time if I speak to them in person.” She
then headed straight for the legal department.
Cheryl shook her head helplessly as she watched Caroline leave in a hurry. Caroline never seemed
to have time for herself.
She had only just gotten on good terms with her husband, yet she was burying herself under the
mountain of work again.
The discussion between Caroline and the legal team ended only at around 3 pm. It seemed as
though they were done with the contract now.
After flipping through the papers to make sure that there were no mistakes, Caroline stretched.

She said “Thank you for your hard work, everyone. You don’t have to come to work for the next
two days. All of you should have a good rest”
“Thank you” the employees replied in unison. Their spints had been lifted now that they had the
following two days to themselves.
Caroline smiled and saw them off. Afterward, she picked up the contract and headed back to her
office
When she pushed through the doors of the office, she saw Kik sitting on a chair Stunned, she stood
rooted to the spot.
At the sound of someone entering the room, Kirk raised his head to see who it was. Seeing that it was
Caroline, he spread his arms in an attempt to hug her
As if on instinct, Caroline walked toward him. He pulled her into his arms
“Are you done with work?” His voice was strained, as if he had waited for her for a long time
“When did you arrive?” asked Caroline Sitting on his lap right now made her teel warm and fuzzy inside
somehow.
“Around 9 am.”
“Why didn’t you call me?” she asked in surprise
“I did, but you didn’t answer.”
Kirk carried her to the couch and sat. He shut his eyes and told het. “You must be tired Quick, take a
nap.”
Glancing up at him, Caroline saw that his eyes were closed already. The soft light from behind him
made him appear all the more gentle and energetic.
In truth, Caroline had felt kind of worn out just now. Now, though, she wasn’t tired in the least
Getting up from the couch, she stared at Kirk, who sat on the ground. His eyelids drooped so much that
it was cleat he was going to doze off soon.
“Get up. Go back home and go to sleep.”
“No. You should sleep. Don’t you have a contract to settle by tomorrow?” he mumbled

Caroline glanced at the clock on the wall and said, “I still have a couple of hours to get it done. Hurry
and get up. The floor’s cold.”
Then, Kirk opened his eyes to look at her. “Darling, there’s something I would like to do if you
don’t want to sleep.”
Flabbergasted, Caroline didn’t know how to respond. A moment later, she simply told him, “Come up
here to sleep then.”
Instead of listening to her, Kirk rested his chin against the couch. With his eyes half–closed, henovelbin
murmured, “Go to sleep.” Soon, he was fast asleep.
His soft snores made Caroline drowsy too, and she soon fell asleep.
When she woke up the next morning, it was already 7 am.
She glanced sideways, expecting to see Kirk, but he was nowhere to be seen.
A wave of panic washed over her, and she raised her head to look around the office. However, she
calmed down at the sight of a container of mushroom soup and slices of baguette on her desk.
Standing up from the couch, she walked over to her desk and placed a hand over the food to find
that it was still hot.
