Chapter 86 It’s Snowing

Seeing Caroline’s anger, Evan leaned against the door and asked, “Do you feel better now?”

As they reached a halfway point up the northern mountain after a two–hour drive, Caroline had fallen asleep on the reclined seat.

After parking the car, Evan looked at her curled up figure in the passenger seat, and his eyes softened significantly.

His eyes darkened. Besides seeing her cry on the day her mother passed away, he had never witnessed any pain on her face.

She was skilled at hiding her emotions.

She always wanted to appear strong.
