    “Before you left, Mr. Sorkin even left instructions to ensure that your bill was cleared the next time you


    visited *


    Hearing what the manager said, Gwen’s mouth took on an O shape. She nudged Caroline with her arm


    as she sent her a meaningful look


    Caroline shot Gwen a nce before following the manager to the private room.


    Once the manager left, Gwen said in a rush, “Didn’t I say that Mr. Sorkin treats you differently?”


    “He has a girlfriend”


    L


    “That’s unrted” Gwen watched as Caroline frowned in annoyance.


    Sheughed and said, “Let’s not talk about him anymore. Besides, he already went abroad. Who


    knows when he’sing back?”


    “That’s right.” As Caroline poured them tea, she immediately felt rxed.


    Gwen eyed her. After a moment, she said, “Carol, what’s going on between you and Kirk right now?”


    Caroline rubbed her temples.


    “I don’t know, either. The situation seems moreplicated than I imagined …”


    “Complicated?” Gwen asked.


    “Howplicated can matters of the heart get?”


    Caroline didn’t know how to exin it to her.


    Gwen raised her teacup. “Forget it. Let’s not talk about it if you don’t want to. But, Carol, no matter what


    choice you make, I hope you’ll put your happiness first.


    “Don’t be like my mother. She never divorced and said it’s because of me.”


    She continued, “She doesn’t know how much I would rather they had divorced. Maybe if they had split


    up long ago, I wouldn’t be the way I am now when ites to love.”


    Seeing Gwen this way made Caroline’s heart ache.


    “Don’t worry. Once I figure this thing out, I’ll divorce him without looking back if he’s really


    1/3


    Caroline just couldn’t bear to divorce when the situation was so muddled.

    Gwenughed. “Carol, I’m not trying to meddle in your life, but I’m really afraid… I’m afraid that


    we’ll be inferior because of a man …”


    Gwen’s body seemed to be trembling minutely.


    Caroline was sitting right next to Gwen, and she hugged her gently. “I know. I know…”


    Gwen buried her head on Caroline’s shoulder as she shook violently.


    “I know that Sean’s not a bad boyfriend, but I really don’t dare to try. Especially since he’s so


    amazing. When I was with him, I kept overthinking when I wasn’t working.”


    She exined, “I kept wondering what he was doing and if he was with another woman. My


    rationality told me to stop, but I really can’t control my brain.”


    Hearing Gwen’s heartfelt fear as she spoke, Caroline patted her shoulder.


    “Don’t worry. Take your time. You’re being very brave as it is.”


    “Am I brave?” Gwen looked up at Caroline.


    “Of course. Think about it. You spent more than three months with Sean, isn’t that right?”


    Gwen suddenlyughed as she rubbed her head on Caroline’s shoulder.


    “Carol, how can you be so great? Once you find out


    the truth about Kirk, I’ll beat him up for you if


    he really went against your back!”


    Caroline chuckled. “Sure!”


    Right then, a knock sounded at the door. Caroline thought it was a waiter, so she waited for Gwen


    to wipe away her tears before saying, “Come in.”


    The door opened. The people standing at the door weren’t waiters.


    Instead, it was Kirk and… Sean.


    Seeing the two men, Caroline and Gwen both started to frown in synchrony. They asked, “What are


    you doing here?”


    “Kirk and I came out for dinner and saw Jack’s car downstairs. That’s why we came over. Since it’s


    As Sean spoke, he made his way to sit next to Gwen. Kirk also walked to Caroline and sat down.


    Caroline and Gwen exchanged nces. They could see annoyance in each other’s eyes.


    Being shameless could really get one anywhere in life.
