Raising an eyebrow, Sean stared at her and waited, but she faltered and didn’t continue. Soon, the
waiter came with their food, so Sean
said, “Let’s eat.”

After finishing their meal, Sean and Caroline said their goodbyes. He watched her as she left before he
took his phone out to call Kirk.” Where are you?”
“At thepany.”
Kirk had rented a ce for hispany in a small business district east of town. It wasn’t exactly huge,
so he’d asked Eddy to have the 88th floor emptied so that it could be turned into a leisure area for him
to work out.
When Kirk said that he was at thepany, Sean instantly knew what he meant. “I saw your wife
today.”
Kirk had been listening to Sean without much interest, but now he froze. His fingers halted, and the pen
in his grasp stopped moving. His expression turned grim.
“We even had something to eat.”
“Sean!” Kirk warned.
Sean started chuckling. “It was a coincidence. She was here to fix herptop, and I rmended you.
“What do you think? I’m so helpful, aren’t I? As long as you help her fix it, she’ll start admiring you and
thinking better of you. Your rtionship will improve tremendously then.”
Kirk massaged his temples; his face was taut with tension. The scenes fromst night reyed
themselves in his mind.
Caroline taking the initiative had ignited the passion in him, but her tears had quenched the fire in him.
She hadn’t been doing it out of her
own will.
“Why aren’t you talking?” Kirk was so quiet that Sean became cautious about how silent it became.
Only then did Kirk slowly say, “It isn’t that simple between us.” Caroline had loved Eddy for eight years,
so how could she let go of him so
easily?
Seanughed inwardly. How were things evenplicated between them? He didn’t say it aloud but
instead asked, “Are you sure you
don’t care?”
Just as Sean finished voicing his question, a knock came from the door, and Kirk raised his eyes and
said, “Come in.”
His secretary, Charles, entered the room. Noticing that Kirk was talking on the phone, he stood aside
quietly and waited.
“Speak,” Kirk told him.
Only then did Charles speak. “Mr. Kirk, the registration for the design contest will close soon. Those
brands that we have bought will dere their merger with us on the day that the selection results are
announced.
“These are the drafts that they will release to the public on the day of the official announcement.”
He handed Kirk the documents and added, “If there’s nothing wrong with them, I’ll tell them that they’re
good to go.”
After taking the documents from Charles, Kirk’s workaholic mode Immediately switched on. It was as
though he’d totally forgotten Sean’s existence. Sean was used to this, so he simply waited silently for
him to go through the documents.
However, the longer he went through those papers, the deeper the frown on Kirk’sce was. Noticing
this, Charles hesitated a little before asking. “Perhaps we should have them redo It?”
Kirk raised his eyes to meet Charles‘. He said, “Dy the registration deadline for the contest by a
week.”
“Huh?” Charles was caught by surprise by Kirk’s reply.
“These are fine. You can leave.”
Charles started to say something but noticed that Kirk was already immersed in his work with his head
bowed low. In the end, Charles decided it was best to leave.
“Did something happen?” one of them asked.
The merging of brands was significant, and the dates of all events and activities were decided upon
after thorough discussion.
They had worked their asses off for the past six months or so. Why was the final date for registration
pushed back all of a sudden?
“Mr. Charles, you’re the person who knows Mr. Kirk best. Do you know the reason for this?”
Charles himself was puzzled. After working for Kirk for so many years, he knew one thing for sure–Kirk
never went back on his words. Besides, the merger was particrly significant.
“Everyone, Charles called out, “Mr. Kirk must have his reasons for this. We just need to do what he
says and postpone the deadline for registration.
