Chapter 197

Gwen wanted to flee, but she knew that she’d give herself away by doing so. With a reluctant heart, she walked behind Caroline Lower her voice, she asked, “Why is he here?”

A soft smile hung on Caroline’s face. She pursed her lips and said, “He’s kind of pitiful since he doesn’t have many friends here in the

Gwen’s eyes turned as wide as saucers. “Can we really pretend that it never happened?

“Unless you don’t want to.”

Gwen nodded without a second thought. “Of course, I want to.”
