Chapter 197

Gwen wanted to flee, but she knew that she’d give herself away by doing so. With a reluctant heart, she walked behind Caroline Lower her voice, she asked, “Why is he here?”

A soft smile hung on Caroline’s face. She pursed her lips and said, “He’s kind of pitiful since he doesn’t have many friends here in the

country.

Caroline turned and looked right into Gwen’s eyes. “Gwen, are you hiding something from me?

Gwen instantly looked away. “N–no.”

“Really? Why do I feel like there’s something off with you two?”

“That’s not true!” Gwen denied it adamantly. From the corner of her eye, she noticed Sean coming their way, and she straightened her back.

He leaned over and grabbed the handle of her luggage. “Give it to me.”

“No need-“Gwen took a huge step backward, as if he were an electric cable that would electrocute her.

Then, she realized that she had overreacted. Hastily, she added, “I can do it on my own.”

Seeing how awkward Gwen was made Caroline giggle. She told Gwen, “You take Sean’s car. I’m going back to Kirks.”

Caroline got into Kirk’s car, leaving a dumbstruck Gwen standing with Sean downstairs.

Yet Sean looked as though nothing strange had happened. He simply helped Gwen with her luggage and said. ‘Get in.”

Gwen’s legs felt as heavy as lead. She hesitated, not knowing whether to move or stay rooted at the spot.

Sean watched her in amusement. His prominent facial features looked even more dashing when he smiled.

The lethargy on his face had now vanished without a trace. “What is it?”

We–a panicked Gwen started to say something.

However, Sean interrupted her. “Didn’t you say that we should act as if nothing ever happened? Since nothing happened before this, we’re still friends, right? Are you so rigid around your friends? He questioned.

Gwen’s eyes turned as wide as saucers. “Can we really pretend that it never happened?
