    Caroline took a deep breath and told herself that it was all a lie. The person who had used Kirk


    of marrying other women had lied to her.


    Even though she had reached this conclusion, it somehow made her shudder in fear of the


    unknown.

    She couldn’t understand why someone would do something like that.


    Kirk was just an ordinary guy, after all. At most, he had a smallpany of his own.


    Even then, his father had founded thepany, and Kirk was merely in charge of taking care of it.


    Kirk told her before that it was just a smallpany, and she believed it. If it had been a huge


    business, he could have simply taken over thepany and wouldn’t have needed to go out to


    work.


    Therefore, she was certain that Kirk was only an ordinary, white–cor worker.


    He was like a tiny fish in the ocean here in Easton. If that person had indeed lied, why had they


    made Kirk their target? The thought made Caroline waver.


    “You’re back.” Kirk’s voice sounded from the kitchen. There was a hint of a smile in his voice.


    When she saw him walking out of the kitchen in his suit, she felt her heart skip a beat.


    It didn’t matter how many times she had seen him like this before. She still couldn’t get used to


    seeing him all suave and handsome in all his suits. (1)


    “What is it?” Kirk smiled adoringly at her.


    As she sniffed the air, Caroline found that the fragrance of the dishes he had prepared this time


    was different. It was more intense than before.


    “What are you making?” She asked, trying to get rid of all the jumbled thoughts in her mind.


    Kirk’s lips tilted upward into a smile, and he said, “Ratatouille.”


    Caroline fell silent for a moment. “It sounds familiar.”


    Before she could react, Kirk leaned in and pecked her on the lips. She reached out to push him


    away but was a tadte because he had already taken a step back.

    “It’s also the name of a movie. Do you remember it now?” He said.


    Caroline was both pissed and shocked.


    She was pissed at herself for not hating his touch, even though he might be married to another


    woman in secret. She was shocked because he knew how to make ratatouille.


    When she had been training herself to be a good housewife for Eddy, she had forced herself


    to memorize all kinds of recipes.


    Ratatouille was no simple dish, and only rich people with lots of time on their hands would make


    the dish.


    When she finally snapped out of her daze, Kirk had already ced the food on the dining table.


    “I modified it a little.” He picked up his spoon, blew on the spoonful of ratatouille, and held it in


    front of Caroline’s mouth.


    “Have a taste and tell me if it’s nice.”


    Caroline stared at the spoon and told him, “I can take it myself.”


    As she reached for the spoon, their hands touched. Sparks seemed to fly, and her hand shot back


    away from him.

    She felt herself yearning for him deep down, yet the logical side of her told her not to give in to


    her desire. It was like she was trying to bnce herself in the middle of a seesaw.


    Feeling awkward, she wished that a hole would appear in the ground so that she could bury


    herself in it. “I–I’ll—”


    Before she could say more, Kirk’s hand had already slithered around her waist and pulled her


    close to him.


    The scent of his cologne invaded her senses, and she felt the wall that she had built to defend


    herself against him crumble into oblivion.


    “Let me feed you.” Kirk’s raspy voice came from beside her.


    It was intoxicating, and it made her feel as though she was in Eden, and he was the enticing apple


    that she was inclined to pick and consume.


    Eventually, she would sumb to this temptation and fall into his embrace once more.
