Chapter 132
Once she agreed to attend the pool party, Caroline started to worry. She hadn’t brought her
swimsuit with her, and buying one here would be quite difficult since she wasn’t familiar with this place.
Just as she was deep in thought, she spotted Kirk coming downstairs. “Are you heading outside?” She
asked
“Yep. I’m going to the city for a while.”
He had occasionally flown back from Easton to deal with work. Still, the company was big, and leaving
it without showing up for too long would affect the influence he had–Ivan had just called him to the
study to discuss that too.
“Can I tag along?” Caroline asked, to Kirk’s surprise.
Caroline lowered her head and shifted from foot to foot. “I’m… thinking of buying myself a
swimsuit.”
Her words made Kirk raise both eyebrows now. “I’ll go with you then.”
His intention was obvious. Needless to say, he wanted to see her in a swimsuit.
“But didn’t you say that you have something to attend to there?”
“I can do it in the afternoon,” replied Kirk.
He hooked an arm around Caroline’s waist, and they both walked out of the house.
As she got into the passenger seat, Caroline was still concerned. “Are you sure I’m not taking up
too much of your time?”
“No, you’re not.”
He started the car and then asked, “Why do you want to buy one all of a sudden?” He smiled
inwardly, thinking that she was finally starting to learn to please him.
“Ms. Mendeley invited me to the pool party,” explained Caroline.
Kirk’s face darkened instantly.
“So, you’re buying a swimsuit because of the party?
“Yeah.” Caroline failed to notice the change in his expression.
Kirk snorted and started driving in silence.

make things worse.
They finally arrived at the city center Kirk had to take several detours before they finally found a
mall his family hadn’t invested in.
As they got out of the car, they captured the attention of many passersby. Quite a few men made
catcall sounds when they saw Caroline.
That only made the scowl on Kirk’s face deepen. He pulled her into his arms to block others from
seeing her face,
Their proximity unsettled Caroline. Given how close they were, she could catch his scent as they
walked. When he finally let go of her, they were already standing in a swimwear store.
The owner of the store was a pretty woman with long blonde hair. She eyed Caroline from head to
toe, then took out a few bikinis for her.
When Caroline saw what the woman had gotten for her, she winced and politely asked for
something more conservative, like a one–piece suit.
The woman looked as though she had been given a tough problem to solve.
“Um… it’s kind of hard to find that here. My customers usually ask for something like this. But
look at your body! You’d look super good if you wore these. What do you say, mister?”
She glanced at Kirk, who swallowed a couple of times as he stared at the bikinis.
“We’ll take all of these,” he said.
“Kirk-”
Caroline was interrupted by the store owner, who said, “Alrighty.”
“And find her one that shows less skin,” he added, his voice low.
This time, the store owner relented and rushed off to the back of the store to check the inventory
Now, Caroline finally had the chance to put in a word “I won’t wear those. Why did you buy so
many of them?”
Kirk leaned close to her and bit her earlobe. His warm breath fanned out on her neck as he
whispered into her ear, “Put them on for me.”
Caroline shuddered, and her cheeks flushed red
She wanted to say something in response, but the door to the inventory opened with a creak She
leaped away from him as if he were some kind of bomb that was about to explode.
The store owner had a swimsuit in her hands Indeed, it was a one–piece suit, which was exactly
This is the only one left”
“Wrap this up and send it here.” Kirk gave her their address, scooped up the bag containing the bikinis,
nnd pulled Caroline out of the store.
The store owner watched as they left, thinking that the man looked kind of familiar.
Kirk led Caroline back to their car Confused, she asked, “Why didn’t you bring all of it back?” It wouldn’t
have taken much time for the store owner to pack the swimsuit.
Kirk’s voice was raspy as he started the car and said, “Because I can’t wait any longer.”
A vein pulsed on his temple. He didn’t think he could bear it much longer just by imagining
Caroline in a bikini.
Only now did the realize that his eyes looked bloodshot, as if he were a wild wolf that had been
starving for days.
Achill ran up her spine when she realized that the road they had taken was completely
unfamiliar to her.
“Where are we going?” she asked, but Kirk pursed his lips in silence.
A moment later, they parked in front of a luxurious–looking hotel. Kirk lifted her out of the car and
strode to the lobby. He tossed his ID to the staff in charge of registration at the front desk.
When the staff saw Kirk’s name, he started to bow and greet him. “Mr. Mor-”
“Get me a room. Now.” Kirk was already impatient and didn’t bother to wait for the staff to finish.
The staff shuddered in fear. He didn’t even dare to look at Caroline. After getting his job done, he
handed Kirk the access card to the room with trembling fingers.
Kirk grabbed the card and headed straight to the presidential suite. Once they got into the room,
he pushed Caroline against the door. Soon, she found herself overwhelmed by his passionate
kisses.
The room was engulfed in darkness when she woke up. Startled, she shot up from the bed. Pain
washed over her entire body, so much so that she inhaled sharply.

Kirk caressed her back with one hand and locked his other hand around her waist, trapping her in his
embrace. “Why are you in such a hurry?”
Caroline was kind of pissed. “I told you I wanted to join the party tonight. It’s so dark already. I’m late for
sure.”
smiling, Kirk pulled her back into his arms is warm chest pressed against her bars hack.
He took out the remote control and pressed a button. The curtains alid open, lighting up the entire
room. It’s only 12 pm.
Caroline finally saw just how huge the room was. Besides the bedroom, there was also a living room,
gym, and tearoom. Realization dawned on her, and she asked, “Is this a presidential suite?”
“Mhmm” As Kirk’hummed in response, he pressed his lips against her back.
His reply made Caroline start worrying about his wallet “Isn’t it a bit too expensive?”
“Nope.” Kirk smiled as he relished how thrifty she was
“But-” Caroline’s words were cut short when Kirk pressed his lips against hers.
“Stop overthinking,” he muttered.
Time passed, and it was past 1 pm now.
Caroline was famished, so Kirk called for the hotel’s room service. Lunch was very sumptuous, and
Caroline happily gobbled it all up.
She wanted to get off the bed, but Kirk stopped her by pulling her and moving on top of her.
Helpless, she said, “Kirk, I’m full.”
“But I’m not.”
However, Caroline was worn out already. “Strenuous exercise after meals is bad for digestion,” she
said.
Kirk pressed his nose against hers and paused for a moment before turning and lying down beside her.
“You’re right, my darling.”
Before she could heave a sigh of relief, she heard him say in his raspy voice, “Since we can’t do it yet,
you should put on the bikinis. You’ll have time to digest the food while you’re at it.”
Speechless, Caroline got out of bed and went into the bathroom to change.
When she took off the bathrobe she wore, she looked into the mirror to see countless red marks all
over her body. Her face instantly flushed red at the sight of them.
