Chapter 495

During this time, Caroline had been using challenging tasks at work as an excuse to escape the reality of Kirk being Eddy’s second uncle.

Now that Cheryl had brought him up, it felt like a knife stabbing into her heart, making her bleed like a waterfall.

In an instant, she was overwhelmed, and she started sobbing.

Cheryl’s expression immediately changed. “Caroline, are you okay?”

Caroline huddled against the table, biting her lip. The papers on the desk fell to the floor because of how the table was shaking.

Cheryl was completely panicked and at a loss for what to do. She wanted to open the door and cry for help, but Caroline stopped her.

“Don’t open the door!” she shouted. She wanted to preserve some dignity.

“Caroline …” Cheryl’s eyes had turned red, too.

“What’s going on?”

“Come help me up,” Caroline said with difficulty.

Cheryl had no choice but to follow instructions. She went over and helped Caroline onto a chair. When she touched Caroline, she found Caroline was much colder than a normal person should be.

Once Caroline was sitting down, Cheryl said, her voice choked with sobs, “I–I’ll go get a doctor, okay?”

Caroline shook her head gently as she slowly leaned back into her seat. Once her spasms stopped, she said, “It’s nothing. Just get me some warm water.”
