Many issues could have been solved if Marietta’s biological daughter had been Caroline. 

Caroline brought a blanket out from the bedroom and draped it over Marietta. She took Kirk’s hand and whispered, “Let’s turn in.” They should let Marietta rest. 

Upon entering the bedroom, Kirk immediately wrapped an arm around Caroline’s waist. Sensing his intention, she quickly pressed her hands against his chest to stop him. 

“Don’t. Mom’s still outside,” she warned. 

A smirk played on his lips as he gripped her hands and said, “I wasn’t planning on doing anything, though. What were you thinking, darling?” 

A blush crept up Caroline’s cheeks. A moment later, she spoke, “I wonder if Yvonne will accept Marietta as her mother.” 

“Márietta spent half of her life searching for her daughter. Now that she’s finally found her daughter, she won’t be able to take it if her daughter can’t return with her.” 

Kirk tugged at Caroline, urging her to sit on the bed. “Don’t worry about it too much. Marietta’s no ordinary woman. She must’ve expected this, so she’ll be able to snap out of it real soon.” 

“Kirk,” said Caroline as she rested her head on his shoulder. “Why do you think there are so many bad endings in this world?” 

Kirk felt his heart ache at her words, and he pulled her into a tight embrace. They didn’t talk for the rest of the night. 

When Marietta woke up the next morning, she seemed as lively as she had always been. Caroline still sensed that Marietta hadn’t fully recovered from last night’s incident. She thought that Marietta was merely putting on this act because she didn’t want them to worry. 

“What do you plan to do today, Mom?” Caroline asked. She told Cheryl she wouldn’t be going to work today and would stay home to keep Marietta company. 

“Nothing, I guess,” Marietta said. “There’s no work for me to do these few days.” 

“How about we go shopping?” Caroline suggested. “You’ve been here awhile and I still haven’t shown you around” 

“Sure,” Marietta happily obliged. 

After breakfast, Caroline asked Kirk to join them, and the three began their journey. Naturally, the task of driving fell to Kirk. 

“I never thought I’d see the day when I would be riding in your car,” said Marietta in the backseat.

Kirk glanced at her through the rearview mirror and said, “I’ll drive you around any day.” 

Hearing his reply, Marietta pursed her lips to stifle a smile. 

Caroline noticed this and laughed. “Kirk’s serious, you know? He resigned, so he has plenty of time to spare nowadays. Just call him if you want to head outside.” 

“You resigned?” Shock washed over Marietta’s face. She wondered why she knew nothing of the change of ownership in the SY Group. 

“That’s right.” Kirk didn’t feel like explaining himself, so he said, “Darling, help me turn on the navigation.”
