Chapter 362

However, Caroline’s methods were getting less effective. When she inadvertently thought of Kirk, even just a little

bit, she would end up longing for him during her short break.

She had never realized before that Kirk had already made a prominent place in her heart. However, it was also

because of this that she was terrified.

In the past, Eddy would go on business trips abroad, and she wouldn’t see him for months. But she had never been

like this. She wouldn’t think of Eddy 24/7. In fact, she would be happy every time he said he would be on a business

trip..

It wasn’t until she started working that she finally understood what that feeling was–the feeling of freedom.

However, it had been less than a day since she and Kirk had been apart, and she was already missing him like

crazy.

Caroline stood up and leaned against the floor–to–ceiling window. As she watched the busy traffic below, she

frowned in distress.

If Marina’s investigation proved that Kirk really had a wife abroad, she couldn’t imagine how she would deal with

her relationship with him. Just then, her phone rang on the table.

She turned around and saw that it was a video call from Kirk. She hesitated for a moment. With trembling hands,

she was about to hang up.

However, her hands didn’t listen to her brain’s commands and turned the video call into a voice

call.

By the time she realized what she had done, it was too late. She heard Kirk’s weary voice on the phone. “Darling

…”

Caroline’s chest tightened at his voice. She really wanted to claw her way through the screen and hug him, but she

couldn’t.

She bit her lips. Feeling the metallic taste of blood on her tongue, she slowly calmed her body’s trembling. She

asked, “What’s the matter?”

“It’s been a while since I’ve seen you, so let me see your face. Pretty please?” Kirk’s voice was low and deep, with a

hint of temptation.

It tugged at Caroline’s heartstrings so hard that they were about to snap. She quickly bit her arm, letting her flesh

absorb the sobs that were about to escape her mouth.

After a while, she finally calmed down and said coldly, “There’s nothing for you to see.”

Kirk chuckled, his laughter ringing through the phone. “Then… don’t hang up the phone. Let me keep you company,

okay?”

Even from a long distance, Caroline could hear the cautiousness in his tone through the receiver.

She tightly gripped the armrest, holding back the questions she wanted to ask. She really didn’t believe Kirk was a

liar. However, she was afraid–afraid that her love was clouding her judgment.

Caroline silently looked at the flickering screen of her phone. She remembered the day she had been sent to the

operating room.

She recalled the powerlessness she had felt when she had laid on that operating table with her hands tied and the

pain when the anesthetic had been injected…

She had always thought that Eddy wouldn’t hurt her, even if he didn’t like her. However, reality had given her a

wake–up call.

Then, she remembered the question she had asked Kirk that day. She trembled in fear and asked again, “Have you

ever lied to me, Kirk?”

After her question, the office fell into silence. Caroline and Kirk both held their breath. Even after more than five

minutes, there was still silence.

Caroline had a bright smile on her face, but her eyes were full of tears. “Fine. I already know what your answer is.”

“Darling …” Kirk called out desperately.

Caroline closed her eyes, letting her tears slide down her cheeks. She said, “We’ll talk about this when you return.”

“I swear this is the only thing I lied to you about… I can give you a reasonable explanation.”

Caroline gently interrupted him. “Let’s wait until you return.‘

After that, she hung up the phone.
