“N–no,” Charles muttered as he wiped off the sheen of cold sweat on his brow.

making him stop in his tracks.
“Caroline said that a mysterious person messaged her when she was in Macovo back then. I need

“Wanna grab a drink?” Sean asked while driving.

“No. I just reached the company,” answered Kirk as he loosened his tie.
“Okay then.”

like him! Besides, it was his fault! Why should I be held accountable for it?”
“You and Gwen broke up already,” Kirk corrected him.
“You just can’t stop yourself from rubbing salt into my wound, huh?”
“You did the same when Caroline and I got into a fight,” Kirk said, successfully shutting him up.
