Chapter 115

At the convenience store, Caroline bought a few pieces of bread and a few bottles of water.

Gwen asked her curiously, “Why are you buying water?” There were cold drinks at the barbecue

restaurant.

Caroline couldn’t help but blush. “I want some regular water.”

Gwen sauntered to her, asking, “Is it for you, or are you buying it for Kirk?”

“It’s for me, all right?” Caroline took another water bottle before asking Gwen, “What’s going on between you and Sean?”

“Huh? Nothing!” Gwen felt a little sheepish. There really wasn’t anything between her and Sean, so she had no clue why she was acting like this.

“Oh, really?” Caroline stared straight into Gwen’s eyes, making the latter feel a little awkward.

“Carol, didn’t I promise I wouldn’t pursue him?”

Caroline said, “If you really like him, I don’t mind.”

Gwen waved her hand. “Forget it. Both his work and family are abroad. Who knows when he’ll be leaving this place? Long distance relationships are too difficult.”

Her friend’s words took Caroline aback. Kirk’s family was abroad as well. Would she be separated

from him in the future as well?

“Enough about me. What’s going on between you and Kirk? And who was the woman from before?”

Gwen asked.

On the way here, Sean had asked Gwen about the woman Kirk was with. She’d said she didn’t know who the woman was, but he’d insisted that she find out from Caroline, claiming that he

wanted to clear his friend’s name.

The light in Caroline’s eyes dimmed instantly.

“If you don’t want to say it, forget that I asked,” Gwen said hastily.

Caroline walked out of the convenience store with her bag in her hand, feeling a big weight on her
