Caroline’s eyes widened, and she clenched her fists as their eyes locked.
“Why is Evan here? Wasn’t he on a business trip? she thought.

trouble.”
“Really?” Evan chuckled, leaning closer. “Seems you don’t find me troublesome.”

“Thanks for tonight. Goodbye””
As Caroline reached for the door, Evan wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her closer again.
His warm breath grazed her ear as he asked, his tone chilly, “How much longer will you hide from
me, Caroline?”
