Chapter 711

Caroline went home after submitting the documents. She was surprised to see that Kirk wasn’t home. However, she wasn’t concerned in the slightest.

Although Kirk had resigned from his job, he still had his own social life. It was normal for him to be away from home occasionally.

Since Kirk wasn’t home, she could take this chance to buy groceries and cook him a big meal. Due to Jude’s death, Caroline hadn’t cooked for Kirk for a long time.

Hence, she went to the farmer’s market to buy groceries. When she returned home, Kirk still wasn’t home. So she went to the kitchen to cook dinner.

When Caroline was almost done cooking, she heard noises outside the door. She stood at the door, smiling, waiting for Kirk to enter. However, when she saw a rather disgruntled Kirk, her expression froze.

Kirk hadn’t expected to see Caroline at home, and he quickly hid his anger. “What are you doing home?”

Caroline replied, “I came home after getting off work. What happened to you? Did you get into a fight?”

“No, I just practiced boxing with Jack.”

Caroline was skeptical, but she didn’t ask any more questions. Instead, she turned toward the dining room and said, “You must be hungry. Let’s have dinner.”

Kirk followed Caroline to the dining room. When he saw the sumptuous meal on the table, he kissed her forehead tenderly. “Thank you, darling.”

Caroline was about to reply when she frowned and sniffed Kirk’s body.

Kirk asked loudly, “What’s wrong? Are you worried about me cheating on you?”

Caroline raised her head and looked at Kirk sternly. “I smell blood.”

Kirk’s brows furrowed almost imperceptibly at her words. “Maybe it’s because I fought a few rounds against Jack.”

“A few rounds?” Caroline’s eyes lit up.
