Chapter 202
Sean was stunned. He found it hard to believe just what was going on in Mia’s mind. He was so
dumbfounded that he forgot to free his
arm from hers.
“Mia, are you sure about this?”
Mia shushed him and took a few steps closer to him. “She’s looking at you.”
A smile made its way onto Sean’s face. “Really?” he asked, pleasantly surprised.
‘Yep.”
“Then how does she look? Is she upset?”
“She doesn’t look happy, alright.”
“So, it worked then?”
“I think so,” said Mia as she looked right into his eyes with a dazzling smile.
Caroline’s brows were knit tightly together as she watched Mia and Sean from afar. She cocked her
head to one side to see Gwen walking into the distance.
Then, she turned to Kirk, who was beside her. “What’s Sean doing?”

walked side by side, much to his delight.
Hearing her mention another man’s name–his good friend’s name, at that–made him very displeased.
He furrowed his brows and said, “I don’t know.”
“Why don’t you ask him?” Caroline said.
Kirk looked down at her. His coarse fingers drew circles in her palm. Suddenly, he smirked and said,
“Sure, I can. But I have a condition.”
“What is it?” Caroline’s gut told her that it wasn’t something she would look forward to.
“Call me ‘honey‘ again.”
Caroline stared at him, speechless.
Kirk then reached to play with her earlobe. Jokingly, he told her, “Or we can make a baby.”
Caroline’s expression immediately changed. Her reaction made Kirk’s heart skip a beat, and he started
to explain that it was just a joke.
However, she was already looking up at him. Her eyes were calm and clear, unlike his, which were
flustered, “I’ve decided that I don’t want
children.”
Kirk felt as if his heart had just fallen into an abyss. An unfathomable look seemed to flit across his
eyes, and he asked, “Do you not want
to have a child with me?”
Caroline failed to notice that he placed emphasis on the words “with me“.
She forced a laugh and raised her eyes to meet his. Tears welled up in her eyes as she said, “Yes. I
don’t want kids, I don’t think I’m qualified to be a good mother.”
Kirk relaxed at her words, but his heart started panicking again soon after that.
He rested his hands on her shoulders. “No. You’re definitely going to be the best mother in the world,”
he assured.
Caroline shook her head. The bitterness in her wry smile had now spread to her eyes.
“Even though I have cut my ties with my family, we share the same blood and genes. My parents are
so selfish. What makes you think that
I won’t become like them in the future?”
This question had weighed on her mind ever since Sarah had come to see her.

Gwen was the only one who seemed to be in a good mood during the journey back to the hostel.
Sean looked especially dejected. He could see that Gwen wasn’t mad at him at all.
Instead, she was exceptionally cheerful and couldn’t stop chatting with Caroline. It was as though she
had never noticed him with Mia at
all.
When they arrived at the hostel, he couldn’t stand it much longer. “Kirk,” he called. “Do you want to
grab a drink?”
Kirk was holding his tablet in his hand. He looked up to glance at Caroline for her opinion.
Caroline smiled and said, “Go on. Just come back early.”
Kirk looked back at Sean and said, “Let’s go.”
Then, the two men headed out together. Once they were out of the hostel, Sean started complaining
about Kirk. “Caroline’s got you wrapped around her finger.”
Kirk glanced sideways at him. “It’s my pleasure. Nobody wants to take care of you even though you
want it.”
There was a hint of glee and mirth in Kirk’s tone, and Sean found himself at a loss for words.
Sean didn’t think there was anything great about that. He’d get himself a wife very soon, too!
