Kirk took out a cigar from the box on the table, put it between his lips, and lit it up. Smoke rose in billows, shrouding his face so
that his expression was hidden.
Usually, when he was with Caroline, Kirk didn’t smoke much. For one thing, he didn’t want Caroline to inhale the second–hand
smoke.
For another, he worried that the expensive cigars would betray his identity to Caroline, and he wasn’t used to smoking cheap
cigarettes.
Thinking about how he wouldn’t have this worry again in the future, the look in Kirk’s eyes became grimmer.
The tension that rose from this nearly suffocated Charles. He defended himself in a pitiful manner. “Sir, there’s really no way that
it was me. Think about it. I follow you around every day and hardly ever interact with the madam. How could I have given away
your identity?”
Kirk looked up, his eyes narrowing. “Alright, it’s not you. Then who was it?”

Hearing this, Charles knew that Kirk didn’t suspect him. He secretly let out a breath and wiped away the sweat on his forehead.
“About that... I really don’t know, but...”
Charles‘ eyes brightened. “Let me check who the madam has been in contact with lately.”
After saying that, Charles rushed out of the office once he saw that Kirk wasn’t going to stop him. He went to look for his
colleagues in the technical department.
Seeing the door slowly close, Kirk threw himself on the couch with a dark expression. Once again, he returned to his memories
of Macovo.
Everything had been great at the start until that day when they got back from the hospital. That night, Caroline had gone back up
later than he had. After that, everything had changed.

So something must have happened that night!
Kirk pinched the bridge of his nose.
He had settled nearly everything already. In the past, he would have gone back to Caroline’s side long ago.
Now, he wanted very much to return, too, but he knew that he couldn’t just do that. First, he needed to investigate what had
happened.
He didn’t want this marriage to get to the point of no return.

Kirk picked up his phone and looked at Caroline’s photo. Doing so dispelled the shadows that seemed to follow him.
After looking for a while, he called Jack. “Follow Caroline for the next few days, no matter where she goes. Don’t let her come
into contact with any men!”
With the troubles that had sprung up in Sarcozia, Kirk refused to let Eddy use this chance to try and steal Caroline away.
Caroline drove the car back to Evans Group. When she got to the lobby, she texted Gwen about the good news.
In response, Gwen immediately sent a long string of exclamation points.
Then, she said, “Eddy has really had a personality transplant. That’s the only reason he would apologize to you. Don’t tell me
he’s finally seen how great you are and wants you back?”
Recalling what Eddy had said, Caroline replied, “Impossible. I think he was worried I would understand, so he said it to me
straight. He can give me material compensation, but I can’t ask for Layla to do anything as compensation.”
Gwen’s temper flared when she saw Caroline’s text. “Has Layla put a curse on Eddy or something? She’s tricked him so well that
he defends her so much. I’m honestly impressed.”
Caroline didn’t know either. As she started thinking about it, the elevator doors opened.

Caroline put her phone away and walked out. Just as she did, she heard the noisy voices coming from the entrance of Evans
Group.
Getting closer, Caroline saw that it was Layla making a fuss. What a coincidence!
