Chapter 45
Caroline felt like she was having an out–of–body experience. She drifted through the streets aimlessly.
In the past, her parents had said many hurtful things. Each time, she’d felt a stinging pain from it.
This time, though, she felt nothing. In fact, she felt a little numb.
It was as if they were behaving like their true selves now.
The affection they’d shown her in the past had only been due to her status as the future Mrs. Eddy Morrison. It was all because of the
Morrison family.
It wasn’t because they were a family.
“Hey.” Sean suddenly said to Kirk. He was resting in the back seat. “Isn’t that your wife?”
Kirk immediately opened his eyes and looked out the window.
There was a young woman there. She looked dejected as she walked down the street alone. She seemed pitiful and helpless.
“Stop the car.”
Sean muffled a laugh and stopped the car.
“Hey, Ms. Evans!”
Caroline whipped her head up. She quickly saw Kirk sitting at the back of the car. Her icy limbs immediately warmed and regained some feeling.
Kirk opened the door and got out. “What are you doing here?”
As soon as he’d said that. Kirk recalled that Caroline’s parents lived in this neighborhood. When he looked at her pale, bloodless face, he
frowned.
“What happened?” He took Caroline’s hand. He wanted to take her to see Sarah and Dan.
Caroline tugged at the edge of his shirt to stop him. She looked like a lost child. “Cold.”
It was then that Kirk realized Caroline’s hands were freezing.
He warmed her hands in his. “Get in the car. It’s warm in there.”
Caroline lowered her head, tears streaming down her face. “Kirk, I – I don’t have a home anymore.”
Caroline looked up. “Really?”
