“I know that you’ll be on Caroline’s side as her friend. But I must tell you this–Kirk’s issues are
complicated. It can’t be explained in one or two sentences.
“You’ll only make things more complicated if you get involved. Besides-”
Sean looked straight at Gwen.
His piercing gaze made Gwen’s heart pound uncontrollably, and she stammered, “B–Besides what?
”
“Do you think Kirk will hurt Caroline?” Sean smiled gently.
Gwen pursed her lips. As she looked at his sincere gaze, she couldn’t go against his will.
The temperature on her cheeks slowly rose. Worried about being seen through, she impatiently
shook off Sean’s hand.
“Okay, I got it. I won’t get involved. You never stop nagging. I shouldn’t call you Dr. Yates anymore.
I’ll call you Grandma Yates instead.”
Sean wasn’t annoyed by her nickname at all. Instead, he grinned. “You can call me whatever you
want, as long as you enjoy it.”
After a pause, he continued, “But only you can call me that.”
His exclusive claim tugged at Gwen’s feelings. She felt the warmth on her cheek and tried to
ignore her heart, which was about to leap out of her throat.
“You’re a smart guy. But this trick won’t work on just anyone.” With that, she jerked her hand
away from Sean and got out of the car.
Sean was silent. After a while, he realized Gwen had taken his words as flirting. But in truth, he
had been speaking from the bottom of his heart.
