Chapter 129

Ivan enthusiastically introduced the strangers to Caroline. “These are Kirk’s childhood friends.

They came here just to meet him. Avery, Bryan, this is Kirk’s wife, Caroline.”

The young man introduced himself. “Hi, Caroline. I’m Bryan Mendeley. This is my sister Avery.”

Caroline reached out to shake Bryan’s hand before looking at Avery Mendeley.

It only took Avery a moment to shake her hand with a wide smile. “I couldn’t believe that Kirk’s married! I thought you were…”

She lifted a brow and examined Caroline with her alluring eyes. “Caroline, you’re pretty. No wonder Kirk was in a hurry to marry you.”

Although Caroline was receiving compliments, she felt like Avery was throwing shade at her. She looked at Kirk.

He nodded at the two as a curt greeting.

“You guys must be hungry. Right?” Ivan gave Caroline his full attention. “Come, Caroline. Let’s eat at the dining hall.”

Caroline was led into the dining hall. Her favorite food was served on the table.

Ivan explained, “Kirk requested that we prepare these dishes. What do you think? Do they suit

your taste?”

She was surprised and touched by the gesture. She stole a look at Kirk and lowered her head shyly. “Yeah.”

Ivan smiled merrily. “Great. Come. Take a seat. Try this signature dish of our family’s…”

Kirk coughed loudly. Ivan took the hint and immediately corrected himself, “Try my cooking!”

“Did you prepare the food yourself?” Caroline was touched by his sincerity. “That must have been a lot of trouble.”

“No problem. We’re family! Have a taste. If you like it, I’ll cook for you every day.”

Ivan’s welcome a little too enthusiastic. After the meal, Kirk went upstairs to chat
