Chapter 342

In Sean’s room, Gwen and Sean were about to leave when they saw Kirk coming over with some medication.

Gwen asked anxiously, “Is Caroline sick?”

Kirk nodded and handed the booklet of instructions that came with the medication to Sean “Have a look and see if this medicine has any side effects.

Sean looked through it and answered, “There won’t be any side effects. You can give it to her without any worries.”

After that, he asked, “How did she get sick?”

“I don’t know.” Kirk frowned.

“The Macovian doctor said that Caroline might just not be used to it here.”

Sean replied, “I’ll go have a look at her.”

The three of them headed back to Kirk’s room.

Caroline couldn’t close her eyes in time and watched as the trio came inside. But her gaze quickly fell on Gwen as she did her best to ignore Kirk’s presence.

“Carol…” Gwen looked over at Caroline in worry.

“Do you feel really bad?”

Caroline shook her head. The discomfort from her sickness was nothing compared to the agony in her heart.

Sean checked her over, looking at her tongue and eyes, before saying, “It’s nothing major. You just have a fever. It’ll be fine if you take this medicine.”

Kirk gave a brief response before going to get some warm water.

Gwen held Caroline’s hand, her face etched with worry.

Caroline chuckled. “It’s just a fever–nothing serious.”

1. up.

She glanced at Gwen and Sean, who were all dresse Are you going out?”

“We’re not going anymore,” Gwen quickly replied.

Caroline laughed. “Are you going out to look for evidence?”

Since Caroline had already guessed it, Gwen didn’t hide her intentions any longer. She said, “Yes.”

“Go on then. The ski slopes might not have any surveillance cameras, but you might find some witnesses a Caroline coughed before continuing, “The longer you delay, the worse your chances will be.”

“But Gwen’s eyebrows knitted together.

“Don’t worry about me. I’m fine,” Caroline said.

“Hurry on You won’t be helping me recover even if you’re here.”

Sean said, “Gwen, Caroline is right. Kirk will be here to take care of her. Isn’t that enough to put you at ease?”

Gwen looked over at Kirk. “Alright…” she said. Now, she felt like she was overreacting.

“Then, I’ll go and find some proof first.”

Caroline waved. “Go ahead.”

Sean pulled Gwen out of the room, plunging the room back into silence.

Kirk went to Caroline’s bedside with some warm water and helped her up. “Here, have some medicine.”

Caroline obediently took the pills from Kirk’s hand and swallowed them. After she took the medicine, she lay back on the bed and closed her eyes.

Kirk tucked her in and touched her forehead. “If you still feel bad, I’ll take you to the hospital.”

Caroline shook her head without saying anything.

“What do you want to eat? I’ll have someone get it.”

Caroline kept shaking her head.

Kirk frowned, but he still didn’t notice anything amiss.

They hadn’t spoken to each other since she had woken up. More accurately, Caroline hadn’t said a word to Kirk.

At the beginning, Kirk had thought that Caroline was weak because she was sick.

But when she had spoken to Gwen, her words had been clear and coherent. In fact, they had sounded completely unlike those of a sick person who was unable to speak.

“Darling.” Worry shot through Kirk as he clutched Caroline’s hand.

“Did I do something to upset you?”

Caroline’s eyelashes trembled. She thought Kirk’s tone was very pitiful. She recalled how he Caroline thinned her lips and opened her eyes. Her clear gaze met Kirk’s Enunciating each word slowly, she asked, “Have you evet lied to me?”
