As soon as Caroline stepped out of the elevator, she spotted Blake waiting for her near the entrance.

He walked over and took the suitcase right out of her hand without saying a word. Once he loaded it into

the trunk of the car, they both got in. Caroline pulled out her phone just as the low battery warning popped up. That was when it hit her–she’d left her charger upstairs.

She had forgotten about it.

Halfway out of the car again, she turned to Blake. “I forgot my charger. Do you mind waiting just a minute?”

Without waiting for an answer, she jogged back toward the building.

At her apartment door, she was just about to punch in the keypad when she heard voices inside.

“Hey, Ruth, this jackfruit’s huge–come share it with me.”

Hearing the voice coming from inside the house, her hand froze in midair.

It turned out that the missing jackfruit was hidden by Wren.

She couldn’t let her get away with it this time.

Just as she dropped her hand, she heard more chatter from inside.

“Relax. The rest of the family’s off at work all day. And that brat Caroline? Edwin kicked her out. Probably won’t be back anytime soon.”

Wren’s voice was high–pitched and smug, practically dripping with satisfaction.

Caroline didn’t even need to see her face to picture it clearly.

“Okay, come over quickly. After having the fruits, don’t leave. Alaina made me stock up on beef yesterday. We’ll cook some up for lunch,” she continued. Caroline heard this and couldn’t help but smile.

I wonder what Edwin and Alaina would think if they heard this themselves?

Just hearing it wasn’t enough. They needed to see it.

She didn’t go inside. Instead, she turned back and headed downstairs.

Back in the car, Blake looked at her empty hands, his brow furrowed. “Did you not find it?”

Caroline shook her head slightly. “No, that’s not it …”

She hesitated, then added, “I’ll explain later. Are you in a rush? If not, could you wait with me just a little longer?”

Blake was clearly puzzled but didn’t push. “I’m off today”

Hearing that, Caroline relaxed.
