Chapter 824 Keep a Distance

At Bayview Villa.

Caroline absentmindedly ate in the dining room until Kenny returned. As he entered, he stared at her and

waved his hand before her eyes.

“G? What are you daydreaming about?” Kenny inquired.

Caroline slowly returned to reality, looking up at Kenny. “Nothing. Have you eaten?”

“Not yet. Where are the children?” Kenny pulled out a chair and sat down.

“I think they’re playing upstairs,” Caroline replied nonchalantly, mechanically stuffing peas into her mouth.

“G, something is bothering you. It seems like you won’t tell me anything these days,” Kenny observed and

sighed.

Caroline put down her fork. “I just don’t want you to worry too much.”

“I’m your friend! I really wish I could help you with something,” Kenny expressed sincerely.

Caroline smiled. “I’m already very happy that you can manage the factory and company so well.”

Kenny clicked his tongue, about to say more, when they heard a car outside.

Caroline turned to look, thinking it was Evan coming home.

“G, will you please show some restraint? Why are you so excited that Evan is back, but you didn’t welcome my return that way!” Kenny

remarked.

Without turning, Caroline said, “I have something to talk to him about.”

She opened the door, but it was Scott, not Evan.

Scott had arrived without informing her, something he used to do in the past. Caroline felt something was

off but couldn’t walk away now.

“What brings you here, Scott?” she asked.

Scott, holding a medicine kit, smiled. “You’ve forgotten that I come to change your house’s emergency

medicine supply once a year.”

Caroline stared at the kit, apologizing, “I’m sorry that I’ve forgotten about this.”

Scott would periodically swap out the medicine when they lived abroad.

+15 BONUS “Have you eaten? Kenny just got home and hasn’t eaten either. Why don’t you stay for a meal?” Caroline suggested.

Scott declined, “Nah. If I stay for a meal, Evan might misunderstand when he’s back later.”

Feeling guilty, Caroline confessed, “Speaking of this, I have something to tell you now, Scott.”

“I know what you’re going to say. You want to tell me that we should keep a distance now that you and Evan are together,” Scott said

nonchalantly.

Caroline lowered her head in guilt. “Yes. I’m very sorry you’ve wasted many years of your youth because of me.”

Scott sighed. “Carol, I told you many times. I’m doing this willingly, and it has nothing to do with you.”

Overwhelmed with emotions, Caroline didn’t know how to respond. She never had feelings for Scott-

Evan always held the most important place in her heart.

“Don’t feel bad, Carol. Even though I’m disappointed that we can’t form a family together, I’m happy just to

see you happy. I won’t be coming over to Bayview Villa frequently anymore, but we will still be friends.

“I think about how both of us were very busy during our time abroad, but we still had a good time when we

gathered,” Scott shared.

Caroline listened in silence, knowing it would be inappropriate to say anything now and could hurt Scott.
