When she got back home, it was already past 10 pm. After taking a shower, Carolline was in bed around 11 pm, planning to sleep since she had to work the next day. Despite feeling exhausted, she kept tossing and turning in her bed, unable to fall asleep. For some reason, the image of Matilda holding onto Bryan's arm kept popping up in her mind.
There was also Matilda's arrogant gaze, which made her feel uncomfortable. Of course, she didn't think Matilda's display had any significance for her, but why would Bryan allow Matilda to be close to him at this time?
What bothered her was this, not Matilda herself.
After more tossing and turning, Carolline still couldn't sleep. Sitting up in bed, she looked out the window at the bright moon and wondered what the date was. The moon was so bright and round tonight.
Just then, Carolline's phone rang. She didn't expect anyone to call her at this hour, so she checked the caller ID and was surprised to see it was Bryan's number.
