“I’m laughing at you. You knew Colin wasn’t a good person, but you still wasted your time on him.”
Gwen laughed as well. “I can’t help it. My past relationship is too unforgettable.”
“Since it’s so memorable, why don’t you give it another try?” Caroline suggested.
“Not everyone is like your father. There are loyal and faithful men in this world.”
“Give me an example, then.”
For a moment, Caroline couldn’t come up with an answer.
“See?” Gwen turned to look at the moon outside the window.
“Anyone can see how much Kirk loves you, but …”
Speaking of this, she glanced at Caroline and whispered, “I’m sorry, Carol. I didn’t mean to rub salt
in your wounds.”
Caroline shook her head. “It’s fine. In fact, I’ve been thinking about this problem recently. Why can

At the mention of this, Caroline looked at Gwen sternly. “If you end up finding someone like Colin again, we won’t be
friends anymore.”
Gwen laughed loudly. Still laughing, she hugged Caroline’s shoulders.
“Don’t worry! I’ll definitely keep my eyes peeled when I find another partner. At least I won’t get together with a
scumbag again.”
In contrast to the warm atmosphere between the two friends outside the room, Kirk glared at Sean

Sean clasped his hands together with a smile. “Oh, kind sir, my dear friend. I’m counting on you to

Sean smiled graciously. “I’ll do whatever you want! I’ll even call you a god!”

Suddenly, Sean’s eyes lit up with an idea, and he curled his lips into an evil smile. “Haha! I have an

Kirk’s expression remained unchanged as he questioned, “What did a simpleton like you come up
