Caroline shook her head. “What are you thinking? I’m only giving an example. It’s been a few months
since I married Kirk, I think. I’ve met his family too. But for some reason, I feel like the person I know
isn’t the real him. It’s just a persona he’s showing me.”
Gwen replied, “Maybe you’ll get to know him more if you spend more time together.”

“Maybe.” Caroline half–heartedly put her hair up.
“Enough, let’s not talk about this anymore. Let’s drink!”
Gwen raised her glass and was about to clink it with Caroline’s. But then her gaze fell on Caroline’s
neck. “Carol, what happened to your neck?”
It didn’t look like a hickey. On the contrary, it looked like someone had throttled her.
Caroline remembered the marks and put her hair back down.

“Is Kirk abusing you?” Gwen sprung up as she said this. “I’ll kill him!”
“Calm down.” Caroline pulled at Gwen.
“It has nothing to do with Kirk. It was Eddy.”
“Then I’ll go look for him!” Gwen grabbed a beer bottle and headed for the door.
Caroline hurriedly stopped her. “Gwen, I’m fine. You’re drunk. Calm down first.”
Gwen was truly somewhat drunk. Her body swayed. Feeling awful, she slumped in a corner and puked
into a trash can.
When Caroline saw this, she waited until Gwen finished before handing her some tissues and water.
As a cool breeze blew past. Gwen finally felt a bit more alert.
She looked up at Caroline in pain. “Why did that asshole go to see you?”
“I’m not sure.” Caroline pulled Gwen up. “I’ll take you home.”
Gwen slumped against Caroline’s shoulder and sobbed. “Carol, my poor Carol. If Kirk dares do
anything bad to you, I’ll castrate him!”
As she said this, a pair of long legs appeared before her.
Gwen thought she was hallucinating until a low voice sounded in her ear. It was then that she realized
she was sure of what she was seeing.

“You won’t get that chance.”
Kirk walked up in large strides and pushed Gwen over to Sean behind him. Then, he pulled Caroline
over and looked her up and down. His gaze settled on the bright red marks on her fair
neck,
“Eddy did this?”
Surprised by Kirk’s sudden appearance, Caroline froze. Then, she turned to look at Gwen.
Sean had already helped Gwen to his car. By the looks of it, Gwen was obediently leaning against
Sean. They seemed perfectly fine together.

“Why are you here?”
“Answer me.”
Caroline felt a bit pressured. “What’s the point of talking about it?”
Kirk’s gaze darkened. He pushed Caroline up against the wall.
Caroline felt frantic. They were by a busy road, and there were quite a lot of people about.
“Kirk…”
Kirk wasn’t moved. He held onto Caroline’s wrists and pulled her into a dark alley.
Darkness enveloped Caroline, while Kirk’s masculine scent sent her heart into a frenzy.
Kirk held her arms over her head. His warm breath brushed against her face, scorching her.
He kissed her fair neck. It was soft like a feather.
“Does it hurt?”
Caroline’s heart skipped a beat.
