Chapter 117
Early the next day, Caroline woke up. She hurriedly lifted the blanket, only to find her clothes
intact. They hadn’t done anything last night.
“You’re awake?”
Caroline looked up and saw Kirk coming out of the bathroom with only a towel wrapped around
his hips.
Cold water fell from his hair, dripping down his well–defined muscles before getting absorbed by
the towel.
The sight bewildered her. She answered, “Yeah.”
Kirk approached her and sat down on the bed, which dipped under his weight. His movements
made Caroline’s heart pound, and her face turned crimson.
Kirk fiddled with Caroline’s earlobes, saying, “You fell asleep last night.”
“Huh?” Caroline remembered what had happened last night. Kirk had left the room to answer the
phone, and… she’d fallen asleep.
Her face reddened even more as she apologized, saying, “I’m sorry!”
Kirk pulled her into his arms, asking, “How do you plan to make it up to me?”
Caroline quivered and said shyly, “C–close your eyes.”
Kirk listened to her and closed his eyes.

tapped Caroline’s nose. “That’s it?”
