Caroline woke up early the next day. She wanted to get out of bed, but Kirk was holding her
tightly by the waist, rendering her unable to move.
However, her attempts woke Kirk up. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Why are you up so early?” Kirk opened his bleary eyes.
“Have you forgotten? I have to head to Morrison Manor today.”
Kirk’s grip tightened further instinctively. “Yes, I remember. But there’s no need to rush. It’s just
past 6:00 am now. Sleep some more.”
As he said this, he threw his leg over Caroline’s.
Caroline didn’t know if she wanted to laugh or cry. “Do you not want me to head over?”
“No.” Kirk buried his head in Caroline’s neck and rubbed against her like a mischievous cat.
This made Caroline’s heart melt into a puddle.
“Alright, I’ll spend a bit more time with you then.”
Kirk smiled, but Caroline didn’t see it. All she could feel was how the breath at her neck was
becoming more heated.
His hands were traveling up from her waist.
Caroline giggled and said, “Kirk Morrison, can you behave?”
Kirk said innocently, “How am I not behaving?”
Annoyed to the point of laughter, Caroline shoved him aside. “Stop messing around. I have to leave
in a bit.”
“Then I’ll be as fast as I can.”
Caroline’s face went red. “How trustworthy are your words?”
Kirk bit the collar of Caroline’s night dress. “Why don’t you see for yourself?”
As he said this, he was already making his move.
In the end, Caroline couldn’t resist Kirk’s charms and went along with
home, it was already past 9:00 am.
1. m. By the time she left
She was lucky that Jack’s driving skills were exemplary. And since it was a weekend today, she
wasn’t very late.
However, she noticed that Jack kept frowning as he drove her to her destination. It looked like he
had a lot on his mind.
Caroline asked, half–jokingly, “What’s up, Mr. Jack? Having love trouble?”
Jack replied, “No. There’s no way such a thing could make me …”
“Is it really not that?”
Too much had been happening in Caroline’s life lately, so she hadn’t had the time to check in on what had been going on with Jack and Cheryl.
Jack scratched his head. He felt awkward for a long time before he said, “Actually, you can’t really
say that I’m having love trouble.
“It’s just that I found out a while ago that Cheryl likes me. But I stupidly went and tried to find her
a boyfriend.”
“Speaking of that, it’s actually my fault,” Caroline said earnestly.
“I didn’t inform her about it properly. Then, I got too busy and forgot about it completely. Once Grandpa’s affairs are settled in a few days, I’ll go over and apologize to her personally.”
“Ms. Evans, please don’t do that. It’s still my fault in the end,” Jack said.
“If I had known earlier that Cheryl likes me, I wouldn’t have said that she’s like a sister to me.”
“Then how do you …‘
”
Jack scratched his head again. “Actually, I’ve been thinking about this for the past few days. I
thought I could give her an explanation after I figured it out.
“That way, we won’t have to be so awkward with each other. We see each other so often, after all.”
He continued, “It would be a lie to say that I don’t like Cheryl. But I don’t really know if it’s familial
or romantic love that I feel for her.

“I lost my family at a young age. Now that I’ve gotten myself a little sister, I really don’t want to
lose her”
Caroline was silent. After a moment, she said, “Then, you can only let time answer that question.”
Jack’s expression was dejected. “That’s the only way.”
Caroline patted Jack on the shoulder. “Then… about explaining the situation?”
Jack gave it some thought before shaking his head. “It’s best to forget it. Even if you explain it to
Cheryl, I still won’t be able to give her an explanation now. It’s better to wait until I’ve thought
things through.”
Caroline nodded. “That’s good. In any case, you just need to give me a holler.”
“Alright.”
She opened the door and got out of the car.
Simon was already waiting at the entrance. He immediately came over to greet her when he saw
her.
