Chapter 115
At the convenience store, Caroline bought a few pieces of bread and a few bottles of water.
Gwen asked her curiously, “Why are you buying water?” There were cold drinks at the barbecue
restaurant.
Caroline couldn’t help but blush. “I want some regular water.”
Gwen sauntered to her, asking, “Is it for you, or are you buying it for Kirk?”
“It’s for me, all right?” Caroline took another water bottle before asking Gwen, “What’s going on between you and Sean?”
“Huh? Nothing!” Gwen felt a little sheepish. There really wasn’t anything between her and Sean, so she had no clue why she was acting like this.
“Oh, really?” Caroline stared straight into Gwen’s eyes, making the latter feel a little awkward.
“Carol, didn’t I promise I wouldn’t pursue him?”
Caroline said, “If you really like him, I don’t mind.”
Gwen waved her hand. “Forget it. Both his work and family are abroad. Who knows when he’ll be leaving this place? Long distance relationships are too difficult.”
Her friend’s words took Caroline aback. Kirk’s family was abroad as well. Would she be separated
from him in the future as well?
“Enough about me. What’s going on between you and Kirk? And who was the woman from before?”
Gwen asked.
On the way here, Sean had asked Gwen about the woman Kirk was with. She’d said she didn’t know who the woman was, but he’d insisted that she find out from Caroline, claiming that he
wanted to clear his friend’s name.
The light in Caroline’s eyes dimmed instantly.
“If you don’t want to say it, forget that I asked,” Gwen said hastily.
Caroline walked out of the convenience store with her bag in her hand, feeling a big weight on her
chest. She took a long breath, bracing herself, and said, “It’s Brie.”
Gwen’s expression shifted “What the actual fuck! Why was he seeing her, of all people? Wait right
here I’m going to give him the scolding he deserves
After talking, she stormed towards the barbecue restaurant across the street.
Seeing this, Caroline hurriedly chased after Gwen, trying to stop her.
However, it was too late Gwen had already let her anger cloud her judgment.
Wanting to stand up for her friend, Gwen pointed at Kirk and yelled, “Are you doing this on
purpose? You clearly know that Carol and Brie don’t get along, but you’re still seeing a bitch like
her!”
Sean was stunned for a moment before realizing what Gwen was doing “She’s scolding Kirk! Does she want to die?” he thought.
Sean stood up and held back the agitated Gwen. “Calm down, Gwen!”
Caroline rushed over as well. She looked at Kirk, out of breath.
Kirk narrowed his eyes slightly. He glanced at the agitated Gwen and then at Caroline. “Brie? Who
said we were together?”
Although Sean had restrained Gwen, he hadn’t covered her mouth. Kirk’s question added fuel to the fire, making Gwen even angrier.
She yelled, “I can’t believe you’re still trying to deny it! When Carol took supper for you at work that night, she saw you two with her own eyes. Also, the lipstick you brought home must belong
to Brie, right?”
The customers at the restaurant all turned over to look at the commotion.
Caroline blocked Gwen and said to Sean, “Sean, can you please take her away?”
Sean nodded and dragged Gwen away.
The people in the restaurant didn’t take their eyes off Caroline’s table. She quickly went to pay the
bill.
Kirk sat still. He only looked at her when she pulled him up, and emotions seemed to be swirling in his eyes.
The two walked to the car one after the other After getting in the car. they drove away from the
