Chapter 394
“Darling, Kirk said.
“You head home first.”
Kirk watched as Caroline turned mercilessly away, his fists clenching. “Alright, I’ll go home first. Call me if anything
happens,” he said.
After that, he was silent for a moment before he left and closed the door behind him.
When the door clicked closed, Caroline couldn’t maintain the rigidity of her back anymore. She slid to the ground.
She covered her face as her shoulders trembled gently.
After more than half an hour, Caroline rushed into the bathroom and wiped the tears from her face.
When she looked up, she saw herself in the mirror, her makeup ruined. Although she had been trying hard to fill the

If this went on, she would go crazy.
She took out her phone and clicked on her chat with Marina. There were no new messages. There were still 18
more hours until working hours started in Macldo.
Caroline had the urge to sedate herself and sleep until she could get the answer. But she couldn’t do that.
After cleaning the makeup from her face, Caroline returned to the living room. Gwen was still asleep, spread out in
an ugly sprawl on the couch. Caroline couldn’t help but laugh at the sight.
This was probably her first real laugh in all this time. But after laughing, she frowned.
She had been so busy with the company and Kirk that she had been in much less contact with
Gwen lately. She wondered what was going on with Gwen.
After staring at Gwen for a while, Caroline got sleepy and fell asleep soon. When she woke again, it
was already the next day.
Seeing that she was sleeping on the bed, Caroline got up and walked to the door. That was when
she realized that she was at Gwen’s place.

There was breakfast on the table–the same kind of thing that she usually ate every day. Gwen was still lying on the
couch with the blanket kicked to the ground.
Just as Caroline walked by the dining table, Gwen’s voice came from behind her. “Morning, Carol 1
Caroline turned to look at her. Gwen was stretching lazily. “You didn’t buy this breakfast?” she asked
Gwen was still in a mess. She blearily climbed up from the couch. “Breakfast? What breakfast? Isn’t it nighttime?”
Caroline was impatient as she said, “Let me get you some hangover cure.”

As Gwen spoke, Caroline had already found the hangover cure. It was on the table. Caroline passed the pills to
Gwen with a mug of water.
Gwen looked at it and smiled. “Thanks, Carol.”
The mug had the name of some medical association printed on it. Expressionlessly, she asked, ” Did you and Sean
have a fight?”
At the mention of that, Gwen didn’t need a hangover cure anymore. She immediately became alert. “No, definitely
not.”
Caroline stared at Gwen silently. That mug and medicine had to be Sean’s. The breakfast was
probably from Kirk. He… must have carried her into the room…
If Gwen hadn’t gotten into a fight with Sean, then they would probably have seen Sean around
when they woke up. Besides, Gwen had gotten drunk.
At that thought, Caroline couldn’t help but smile. “We’re really good friends.”
They went through thick and thin together. They even fought with their partners at the same
time.
