Chapter 47

Caroline pushed Kirk away and turned her back on him. “Don’t treat me so well.”

She would Caroline’s thoughts went wild. She couldn’t help but feet a trace of hope in this world again, Kirk’s eyes narrowed, and he clasped Caroline’s shoulder. “What’s with you today? Did someone wrong you white you were out?

Caroline seemed to be acting really differently today.

She looked to one side and pushed herself to stop crying. She bit her lip forcefully. “We’ll have to divorce at some point. I don’t want there to be too much fuss when the time comes.”

The day she announced her marriage to Eddy would be the same day she divorced Kirk.

Then, Kirk would be able to find the owner of that lipstick. As for her, she would leave this world with no more attachments.

After all, no one wanted her.

Kirk’s brows were tightly furrowed. There was a ball of rage in his chest. He stared after Caroline, his gaze nearly piercing through her.

Sean noticed their exchange and walked over. “What are you two-”

Before he could finish speaking, Kirk glared at him. Then, he strode out of the villa.

Sean was stunned.

What was going on? Why was Kirk angry at him?

Caroline gave a weak smile. “Dr. Yates, I have something to attend to. I’ll be leaving now.”

That said, she walked out through the back door.

Seeing this, Sean could only go after Kirk.

When he got outside, he saw Kirk sitting in the car’s back seat. He had a cigar between his fingers.

Smoke surrounded him, nearly obscuring him from sight..

Sean went over and asked, “Did you two fight?”

“No,” Kirk answered dully.

Sean was confused.

He could see the annoyance written all over Kirk’s face. Why was Kirk insisting they hadn’t fought?

“Did you say something wrong? You have to coax her back. Everything will be fine then.” (1 Kirk glared at Sean. “Why do I have to coax her?”

Sean gave him a thumbs up. “You’re an inspiration!” He wished he could be as staunch when it was his turn to pursue his own wife.

Kirk stubbed out his cigar in annoyance and opened the window for some air. After a while, he couldn’t stand it anymore. He asked coldly.” Where is she?”

“She went out the back door.”

“Fuck,” Kirk cursed. He hopped out of the car and cut through the villa. Through the back door was another street. He couldn’t find Caroline or even a car there.

In a huff, he loosened his tie. He went back to the car. “Get in.”

Sean obeyed and got into the car.

Kirk drove over to the street the back door led to. Even though he was driving very slowly, he couldn’t find Caroline anywhere.

He frowned.
