Chapter 172


    Chapter 172


    Caroline was distracted all morning. Her mind was filled with the image of Kirk’s scratched–up


    abdomen


    She had reason to believe that Kirk had been seducing her. He was probably trying to dumb her


    down by tempting her and making her forget why they were fighting.


    She had to admit that his n was quite sessful


    She really couldn’t hold off much longer.


    Just as she was about to let her mind run wild, she saw Cheryl walking past the door, seemingly


    in a daze.


    In the beginning, Caroline didn’t find anything weird about it. But after Cheryl walked past, she


    sensed something amiss. “Cheryl.”


    A few secondster, Cheryl appeared at her door, looking distracted.


    Her eyes were red–rimmed, and her hair stuck to her face wetly. She looked to be in a ghastly


    state.


    “What happened?”


    Cheryl lowered her head and thinned her lips. She dared not say a word.


    Caroline stood up, her hands supported on the table. “Answer me!”


    Caroline had amanding air about her, and it scared Cheryl.


    She stuttered out, “I–I was just getting water in the lounge. I heard them dis–discussing you. I said


    something, and Susan immediately sshed coffee on my face. She said y–you…”


    “What were they saying?”


    “They say there’s no way you can produce something Mr. French likes with your little bit of skill. They


    say you’ll definitely lose thispetition and embarrass yourself.”


    As she finished speaking, Cheryl burst into tears.


    Caroline’s expression darkened. She said ndly, “Don’t cry! Come with me!”


    Cheryl followed Caroline in confusion to Vivian’s office.


    In the office, Susan was telling Vivian about sshing coffee on Cheryl.


    “Her boss is useless, so she can only suffer the consequences…”


    As she said this, the door was pushed open with a bang.

    Soon, Cheryl returned with some piping hot coffee


    Caroline said, “Ssh Susan back


    The second she said this, everyone gasped


    Cheryl’s face turned white ‘M–Ms Evans Th–that wouldn’t be too nice!”


    The coffee was steaming hot. If she sshed it on Susan, Susan’s face would be ruined.


    Caroline looked over, abnormally icy “What’s so not nice about it? Didn’t she ssh you the same


    way? What we’re concerned about is giving as good as we get. Ssh her back!”


    This was the first time Susan had seen Caroline so vicious. She was terrified.


    She looked at Vivian in fear


    Vivian folded her arms She said, “Ms. Evans, you don’t have to be so ruthless, do you? It’s just some


    roughhousing between colleagues. The victim doesn’t even care about it. Let’s not make mountains out


    of molehills and turn thepany upside down.”


    “Sure‘ Caroline got up and walked to Vivian’s side She smiled as she picked up Vivian’s cup of water


    and sshed it on her face. “I hope you won’t make mountains out of molehills either, Ms.


    Patterson!”


    Everything happened too quickly, and everyone was shocked to their core.
