Sarah and Dan looked toward Layla as if she were their savior.
Layla smiled. âThatâs why you have to help me!â
Sarah and Dan thought about it for a second before nodding in agreement. This was the best choice for them right now.
Seeing this, Laylaâs smile widened further.
On the other hand, Caroline was walking downstairs. When she got to the first floor, she smelled the fragrance of food.
âYouâre done cooking?â
âYes.â Kirk placed the dishes on the table. âCome eat.â
When Caroline saw the decadent dishes on the table, she praised him without holding back. âYour cooking skills are getting better.â
Kirk went over to hold Caroline in an embrace. He picked up a fork and started feeding her. âWhat about my other skills?â
Caroline ignored him.
Kirk put his chin on her shoulder and chuckled lowly. âI was talking about my driving skills. What were you thinking? Your face is red.â
Caroline shot him a look. âIâm hot!â
As she spoke, her stomach made a noise in protest.
Seeing that Caroline was really hungry, Kirk stopped teasing her. He fed Caroline like he was feeding a child.
Caroline was overjoyed.
Right then, her phone rang. Caroline glanced at it and said, âItâs Grandpa.â
Kirk frowned. âDonât answer it just yet. Call back after you finish eating.â
âNo way. What if itâs an emergency?â As Caroline sald this, she moved out of Kirkâs hold. She stepped on the soft carpet and headed to the living room.
Smiling softly, Kirk watched Caroline leave.

âYour parents have gone too far. How could they slander you online? I know you and how strongâwilled you are. But no maller what yourie their daughter. How about this? Iâll take you to soak in some hot springs tomorrow night. You can relax. How about that?â
Caroline glanced at Kirk before saying, âSure.â
They chatted for a bit more before Caroline hung up.
Before Kirk could say anything, she said, âGrandpa wants to take me to some hot sprints.â
Kirk grinned, but the smile didnât reach his eyes. âAlright.â
