Chapter 179

Gwen looked at Sean and saw how he seemed to be carefully trying to get on her good side. She felt displeased. “I’m not that difficult.”

“I laid out the bed for you…”

“Hold it!”

Gwen got up and said casually, “Sean, about what happened last time. It was a unique occurrence. You’re Kirk’s friend, and I’m Caroline’s friend. There’s no avoiding some interaction between us. Let’s use this opportunity to work this out.”

Sean was taken aback. “How do you want to settle it?”

“Let’s pretend it never happened.”
