Chapter 132

Once she agreed to attend the pool party, Caroline started to worry. She hadn’t brought her

swimsuit with her, and buying one here would be quite difficult since she wasn’t familiar with this place.

Just as she was deep in thought, she spotted Kirk coming downstairs. “Are you heading outside?” She asked

“Yep. I’m going to the city for a while.”

He had occasionally flown back from Easton to deal with work. Still, the company was big, and leaving it without showing up for too long would affect the influence he had–Ivan had just called him to the study to discuss that too.

“Can I tag along?” Caroline asked, to Kirk’s surprise.

Caroline lowered her head and shifted from foot to foot. “I’m… thinking of buying myself a

swimsuit.”

Her words made Kirk raise both eyebrows now. “I’ll go with you then.”

His intention was obvious. Needless to say, he wanted to see her in a swimsuit.

“But didn’t you say that you have something to attend to there?”

“I can do it in the afternoon,” replied Kirk.

He hooked an arm around Caroline’s waist, and they both walked out of the house.

As she got into the passenger seat, Caroline was still concerned. “Are you sure I’m not taking up

too much of your time?”

“No, you’re not.”

He started the car and then asked, “Why do you want to buy one all of a sudden?” He smiled

inwardly, thinking that she was finally starting to learn to please him.

“Ms. Mendeley invited me to the pool party,” explained Caroline.

Kirk’s face darkened instantly.

“So, you’re buying a swimsuit because of the party?

“Yeah.” Caroline failed to notice the change in his expression.

Kirk snorted and started driving in silence.
