Chapter 172
Caroline was distracted all morning. Her mind was filled with the image of Kirk’s scratched–up
abdomen
She had reason to believe that Kirk had been seducing her. He was probably trying to dumb her
down by tempting her and making her forget why they were fighting.
She had to admit that his plan was quite successful
She really couldn’t hold off much longer.
Just as she was about to let her mind run wild, she saw Cheryl walking past the door, seemingly
in a daze.
In the beginning, Caroline didn’t find anything weird about it. But after Cheryl walked past, she

“What happened?”
Cheryl lowered her head and thinned her lips. She dared not say a word.
Caroline stood up, her hands supported on the table. “Answer me!”
Caroline had a commanding air about her, and it scared Cheryl.
She stuttered out, “I–I was just getting water in the lounge. I heard them dis–discussing you. I said
something, and Susan immediately splashed coffee on my face. She said y–you…”
“What were they saying?”
“They say there’s no way you can produce something Mr. French likes with your little bit of skill. They

As she finished speaking, Cheryl burst into tears.
Caroline’s expression darkened. She said blandly, “Don’t cry! Come with me!”
Cheryl followed Caroline in confusion to Vivian’s office.
In the office, Susan was telling Vivian about splashing coffee on Cheryl.

The second she said this, everyone gasped
Cheryl’s face turned white ‘M–Ms Evans Th–that wouldn’t be too nice!”
The coffee was steaming hot. If she splashed it on Susan, Susan’s face would be ruined.
Caroline looked over, abnormally icy “What’s so not nice about it? Didn’t she splash you the same
way? What we’re concerned about is giving as good as we get. Splash her back!”
This was the first time Susan had seen Caroline so vicious. She was terrified.
She looked at Vivian in fear
Vivian folded her arms She said, “Ms. Evans, you don’t have to be so ruthless, do you? It’s just some
roughhousing between colleagues. The victim doesn’t even care about it. Let’s not make mountains out
