Chapter 424

The car became pindrop silent for a moment.

Sean braced himself several times before saying, “Kirk has his reasons for having multiple marriages.”

“Reasons?”

Gwen sneered, “Did someone hold him at gunpoint and force him to get married? My dad loves using that word. Every time my mom caught him cheating on her, he would say he had his reasons for doing so.

“He would say that he slept with other women for the sake of his company, or he didn’t know what came over him.

“But I could tell he enjoyed being with other women, so why couldn’t he say that? Couldn’t he own up to his mistakes?” Gwen became more and more agitated as she talked, completely forgetting that she was in the car.

The noise woke Caroline up. She slowly opened her eyes and looked at Gwen in confusion. “Gwen …

Caroline’s voice brought Gwen back to her senses, and she forced a smile. “I’m sorry, Carol. I was being too loud.”

“Did something happen?” Caroline rubbed her eyes.

“We …”

“It’s nothing. We were just discussing something, and we got a bit too loud.”

Sean helped Gwen explain, “You can keep sleeping if you want. We still need more than an hour to reach our destination.”

Caroline felt relieved after hearing Sean’s words. She closed her eyes and fell asleep again after a while.

Meanwhile, Kirk wasn’t sleeping in the passenger seat at all. He simply kept his eyes closed and pretended to sleep.

He had listened to every word of Gwen and Sean’s conversation, and he agreed with Gwen’s However, he would never let the scars of the nail remain on that wooden board forever. He would find the ideal way to smooth out the remaining scars in Caroline’s heart without harming her.

An hour later, the car arrived at the last house.

The man of the last household was a doctor who had traveled to many cities when he had been young.

He immediately showed great interest when he learned that Caroline and her companions were from Easton.

Gwen asked discreetly, “Why weren’t we treated so well when we came here last time?”

Sean looked at the dazzling array of regional specialties placed on the table.

“Maybe it’s because we didn’t bring gifts like Caroline, or my accent wasn’t as good as Kirk’s. Maybe it’s both.”

Gwen couldn’t hear the difference between how Sean and Kirk spoke Macovian. However, looking at the male head’s different attitude toward Kirk, she could tell that Sean was right.

She said, “Putting aside everything, when I look at Caroline and Kirk, I feel they’re a match made in heaven.”

Sean remained silent.

“And they have so much chemistry.” The more Gwen commented, the more upset she became.

She then shut her mouth, not wanting to lose her composure while she was in someone else’s home.

At this moment, a woman walked in. She whispered something to the man. It made him stand up excitedly, and his face turned red After listening to their conversation, Sean looked at Gwen excitedly.

Gwen had no idea what was going on. “What’s wrong?”

“They took a video on the day they went ice skating. Maybe they had captured Mia’s falling too.”

Gwen didn’t dare to have high hopes. “Really?”
