Chapter 26 She Is Your First Love. Isn’t she?
Already there?
What kind of friend is this?
Since things had already been arranged, Caroline couldn’t refuse any further.
After bidding Blake farewell, she headed toward the mall entrance.

“Ms. Somerton, please get in the car. As soon as Caroline stepped out of the mall, a man was already holding the backseat door open for her.
She gave him a quick glance–dressed in a suit, around 50 years old.
He looked significantly older than Blake.
To be cautious, she asked. “Are you Dr. Sherwood’s friend?”
Only after receiving a firm confirmation did she step into the car.
The vehicle slowly pulled away from the mall.
At that moment, inside the mall, Blake and Stella were watching the scene unfold.
Once the car disappeared into traffic, Blake withdrew his gaze and turned to Stella.
“You said you needed to talk to me. What is it?”
Stella grinned. “Blake, you really do forget things easily. I told you all about Caroline last night. Isn’t it time for you to fulfill your promise?”
Blake’s expression darkened. That’s what this is about?”
“Of course“” Stella’s eyes sparkled with amusement just tell me–she’s your first love, isn’t she? I really hope she is. You two are such a great match!”
“Don’t bother shipping us. She has a fiance. Whether she is or isn’t doesn’t matter. Blake’s tone was indifferent. With that, he strode away.
As long as Caroline was doing well, that was enough for him.
Whether she remembered him or not, it didn’t matter.
He just hadn’t expected that she wasn’t living well at home.
And this silly girl had never let it show in front of others. He had always assumed she was doing just fine.
At this moment, Caroline sat in the car, staring blankly out the window. She was completely unaware that somewhere in this world, there was still someone who kept her in their heart.
But for her, the day she died, her heart had already turned to ice.
She feared she would never want to fall into any kind of emotion again.
Before she knew it, they had arrived near Waterford Gardens.
Through the window, Caroline noticed a newly opened supermarket running à promotion. She quickly spoke to the driver, “Sir, I’ll get off here. Please pull over.”
“Alright.”
