The woman was wearing a pale green dress, and though I couldn't see her face clearly, her slender figure was unmistakable.

She must be Tiffany.

I stood still, quietly watching Carter's reaction.

The moment she lunged toward the wheelchair, Carter quickly moved it back.

The sudden action caught Tiffany off guard, and she couldn't stop in time. She tumbled forward and fell heavily to the ground.

"Carter, how could you do this to me?" The woman on the floor sobbed.

I reached out to her and asked, "Ms. Dolton, are you alright?"

I nodded sincerely and said, "I guessed your identity. Ms. White just mentioned that everyone knows you have been chasing Carter for years. After thinking about it, you fit the description, so you must be Ms. Dolton, right? She quickly withdrew her hand, her eyes turning cold as she looked at me.

You're Zoey Gardner?"

Jaford didn't know much about Carter and me, but it was possible she'd heard some rumors.

I slowly walked toward Carter and said, "Ms. Dolton, I'd prefer you call me Mrs. Bolton."

Carter didn't pay attention to Tiffany's words. He looked at me with guilt in his eyes, grabbing my hand as he hurried to explain, "I didn't let her touch me."

He grew panicked; gone was the trace of the cold indifference he had shown to Tiffany earlier.

Carter knew how deeply Luke had hurt me, so he was extra cautious with me in matters of romance, even explaining himself without regard for the setting.
