Chapter 23
Charleson waited until Caroline cried herself out before helping her stand up.
“Carol, are you feeling better?”
He looked at Caroline’s red eyes and couldn’t help but reach out to wipe away the tears that had fallen from the corner of her eye.
Charleson was actually quite shocked. He had always thought that Caroline and that girl were just jealous of a boy.
The first time he asked her, Caroline said, “I am doing it for myself.” and he didn’t pay much attention, thinking it was just another way of expressing herself.
Now he realizes that at that time, the girl was in so much pain when she said those words.
And he finally understood why Caroline was so concerned about whether Kelly’s legs were injured every time they had a conflict.
So this was the deep–seated hatred she had talked about, no wonder she was so afraid.
It has to be said that Charleson felt an indescribable protective instinct rising in his heart. The girl who was crying so sadly in his arms, he never wanted her to get hurt again.
Seeing Caroline nod, Charleson smiled and said, “To celebrate Carol’s rebirth. let me treat you to something delicious.”
Caroline looked at him in surprise. This man, who had just furrowed his brow a second ago, could now smile and suggest going out to cat.
But what was even more surprising was that Caroline was also affected by his emotions, as if what had just happened didn’t matter at all.
The most important thing now is to go eat delicious food with Charleson.
After some time, Caroline suddenly remembered that she hadn’t seen Kelly recently.
Have I really let go of myself?
“Never mind… I wish I never had to see her again…”
Not wanting to think too much, Caroline muttered as she walked forward.
Today was the graduation exam. After the incident where Caroline was almost hit by a falling object last time, the school conducted at thorough inspection of safety hazards in all areas.
That day, the light was deliberately damaged by someone, with the screws on top barely hanging on. The light, which was already shaky, would have fallen down as soon as it was used due to the screws being unable to bear the weight.
And Caroline happened to be the first that day.
But now, after investigation, that kind of thing should not happen
again
It was just…
Caroline always felt uneasy for some reason.
She always felt that something big might happen soon.
“Carol! Over here! I brought breakfast for you. Are you still the first one to jump?”
Charleson appeared out of nowhere, holding a bag of shrimp.
dumplings and millet porridge, and walked up to her with a smile on
his face.
“Yeah. So, will you wait for me to finish jumping later?”
After receiving breakfast, Caroline saw him nod, and the breakfast that had just been received was returned.
“Can you hold this for me while I dance? I’ll eat after I finish, otherwise I’ll be too full to fit into my dance skirt later.”
Charleson raised an eyebrow and looked her up and down. “You’re as thin as a stick now, and still can’t fit into it. How small is that dance dress? Did you buy children’s clothing?”
Caroline was so angry that she hit him and said, “Get lost! What children’s clothes! Those are all tailored dance dresses!”
“Hahahaha…”
The two of them played and joked all the way to the auditorium, where most of the teachers had already arrived.
Caroline hurried onto the stage to prepare, feeling anxious all morning She had thought that something unexpected would happen again today
”
The result was unexpectedly smooth, and Caroline even received unanimous praise.
When I came out after changing my clothes, Charleson was already waiting at the door, but there was another person besides Charleson.
“Carol, congratulations on your graduation, Joshua handed her the flowers.”
They hadn’t seen each other for a long time. Since that day, Joshua had been struggling with his own feelings and had been avoiding seeing Caroline.
But today was Caroline’s graduation exam, and Joshua didn’t want to miss it, so he bought the flowers that Caroline liked and brought them
over.
“Thank you, but we are going to have dinner together later. You…”
Caroline took the flowers, and her meaning was quite clear from her words and expressions.
