Caroline walked quickly to the dining table giving Spencer and Alice simple smiles who were staring at her. The brown-eyed woman then cleared her throat to wet her dry throat. After exiting the toilet, she had a chance to meet Charlotte, and the woman gave her a suspicious look that made her a little nervous. She is afraid that her relationship and Zillion will be judged badly by people who don't know what really happened to them.
"Am I taking too long?" asked Caroline breaking the silence.
The couple just shook their heads, and Spencer replied with shrugs. "I thought you got lost in the Zillion mansion, because I also got lost when I first came to this mansion."
"Aah... not really, I—"
"Oh, you come."
Caroline looked back quickly and immediately got a gentle smile from Zillion. The man walked casually toward Caroline, then pulled out a free chair that was right next to her.
"Sorry, I have to finish some
“I'm sorry Karen, suddenly I have to go to LA to finish some work there. So can I leave Aleyna here for the next two days?" Caroline looked guilty to Karen when she came to Karen's house in the morning to take Aleyna. An hour ago she was distracted by Zillion who casually invite her to go to LA. The coercive man really had to make her run around here and there to prepare her needs as well as Aleyna's needs for the next two days while at Karen's house. In addition, she also had to leave all her office affairs to Jihoo and fabricate a fake statement regarding her going to LA. She told Jihoo that she was going to visit her uncle who was sick because her parents happened to be busy and couldn't visit her uncle who lived alone in LA. It felt like Caroline was really guilty right now because she had created a lot of lies to those closest to her and had been a wreck of her client's marriage relationship. But again, her common sense lost to the ego and emotio
That afternoon, with a tired face framing her face, Jessica walked limply into the state investigation agency's office to get a glimpse of the case of her sister-in-law's death. Since two days ago, almost every day after teaching kindergarten, her routine has been to go to the office of the state investigation agency so that she can immediately find clarity regarding her nephew. Moreover, her mother keeps getting hysterical every time she calls her and asks where her grandson is. She could not bear to see the state of her mother who was destroyed there because she thought about the fate of her grandson and sister-in-law who had died without her family knowing. "So how does the investigation into Nicole Parker's death go?" Jessica asked languidly. She really hopes that this time the officer will give her good news because she is tired of hearing the bad news that people always tell her regarding the death of her sister-in-law. "We just found a little bri
Caroline held Zillion's arm tightly as she lifted her slightly dangling dress to the floor. The seemingly perfect pair walked passionately into a special room that Zillion had reserved for their dinner with some of Zillion's colleagues. "How do you feel today, psychologist?" Zillion asked teasing Caroline, who had been showing a happy face to everyone. After this afternoon they had a heated argument over the issue of a hotel room that Zillion only ordered one for the two of them. Now the two of them seem to be getting along again and actually look more intimate than before. Even though according to Caroline, Zillion is just crazy. But in the end she gave up and only followed the Zillion game. While in LA she had promised herself that she would only do what Zillion wanted. And when they come back later, she'll probably keep Zillion even more at a distance. Moreover, later that man will also return with Cassie and live their respective lives. "You think
“Take a rest, see you later." Zillion kissed Caroline on the forehead and let her out of the car they were in. Finally a business trip that wasn't really a business trip was over. Now is the time for Caroline to return to her home to go back to work, doing all her office chores that pile up after going to LA for two days with Zillion for a vacation. Caroline was really happy. Zillion continues to treat her gently after their small bickering which ended quite sweetly in the elevator. After that they spent a whole day walking around downtown LA which is very busy and crowded. They there actually made such fond memories to take to Chicago so that later if they had to separate, they would still have very fond memories to remember each other. "You too. Don't be too tired and stressed. If you need anything, I'm ready to help you." "You take it easy, tonight I'll definitely terrorize you." Zillion replied earnestly and immediately drove away from Caroline's
The next morning Caroline had left as usual for her office. After escorting Aleyna to her school, she immediately drove her car to the state counseling office to resume her pending work. But ever since she learned of the will she found on Aleyna's desk, she became sleepless and unable to rest easy. The feeling of fear of losing Aleyna was so great over her heart that last night she never left Aleyna at all. In fact, she slept last night in Aleyna's room to make sure that Aleyna stays by her side and doesn't go anywhere. Caroline glanced at her cellphone and chose to ignore it. This morning Zillion called her, and she was too lazy to talk to him. She knew that Cassie had returned from New York yesterday, and from now on she must be firm with Zillion by keeping a distance from him. She will no longer have too much contact with Zillion. She has changed their counseling schedule to a one-hour week with an hour in the office so that
"Where's Aleyna?" One cold night, Aaron suddenly came to Caroline's house carrying a package containing a warm burgers and a glass of Aleyna's favorite milkshake. Caroline, who had just finished clearing the dining table after dinner, only glanced at Aaron while pointing at Aleyna's playroom on the second floor. "She was playing the puzzle upstair, the teacher gave her a puzzle set this morning," replied Caroline unenthusiastically. Aaron nodded in understanding. The man then walked to the second floor to give a warm burger to the little girl. In fact, tonight he wanted to talk seriously to Caroline. It had been more than a week that they had not seen and talked to each other like they used to. And over that one week, Aaron felt like he had a lot to miss. Tonight even Caroline looked different. It seemed that the woman had hidden a lot of trouble from him. But didn't Caroline always have a lot of trouble? In fac
"Shit!" Zillion threw the origin of his black cell phone to pieces on the floor of his workspace. Since three days ago he had been trying to contact Caroline, but the results were always to no avail. Caroline never picked up a single call except the one two days ago when the woman told him to come back to Cassie. It felt like he was very angry and wanted to take all his anger out on her. Carelessly Caroline told him to come back to Cassie after what they had been doing. Even when he visited her office, he never met Caroline. Her assistant who was always blocking him from entering into Caroline's room with the excuse that Caroline was doing a counseling session with a client. Last night when he came to Caroline's house, he was presented with the most disgusting sight he had ever seen in his life. He saw Caroline hugging Aaron. The woman affectionately embraced Aaron while curling up within the man's broad chest comfortably. He really can't accept that.
"Eat, your face looks pale." Caroline shook her head helplessly as she stirred her food without interest. After crying for a long time in the parking area of her office, Zillion decided to take Caroline to the nearest restaurant so that Caroline could calm down after the unpleasant incident that had just happened. Caroline's car which was badly damaged on the front has been taken care of by one of Zillion's men for repair. But it looks like Zillion is going to buy Caroline a new car because the man immediately called his secretary to send a car to Caroline's home address. Unfortunately all the things Zillion did couldn't bring Caroline back to normal because the woman was still thinking about Aleyna. Since earlier, every time Zillion asked her to talk, Caroline only responded with a small murmur or a throat voice that Zillion so hated. The man really didn't like seeing Caroline in this condition. He would rather look at Caroline who is talka
