Caroline’s mind was filled with all sorts of nonsensical thoughts as she repeatedly drew Edwin’s facial features. In the end, she couldn’t hold back. She straightened up slightly, leaned over, and gently planted a kiss on the side of Edwin’s face.

After the kiss, Caroline was like a thief, covering her mouth and lying back down. However, she heard the sleeping Edwin, who was still sober, say, “I thought you would kiss me a few more times.”

Caroline was shocked. Then, she gently punched his shoulder. “When did you wake up?”

“Not long after you woke up,” answered Edwin.

Because of his childhood experience, Edwin had always been a light sleeper. So, when Caroline woke up and made some noise, he noticed that she had also woken up.

“I thought you’d give me a few more kisses.” It was precisely because of this that he pretended to be asleep.

Caroline covered her mouth and moved back. “I haven’t had time to wash up.” She didn’t wash her face or brush her teeth, so she was filthy.

“I don’t mind,” said Edwin, shaking his head. However, Caroline insisted. “But I will mind.”

A regretful look appeared on Edwin’s face. “Alright, then are you going to get

“It’s time to get up.” Usually, at this time, she would have almost finished the entire set of training. Caroline touched her stomach. “I was too busy last night and didn’t eat much. I’m a little hungry now.”

“Then you go wash up first, I’ll get up later.” Seeing that Caroline didn’t move, Edwin urged her.

Caroline felt helpless. “But you have to let go of my hand first.”

Only then did Edwin realize what was going on, and he felt a little embarrassed. “We’ve been holding hands all night, so I forgot about it.” Then, he released his hand.

Caroline, who had regained her freedom, shook her numb hand and looked at him with a faint smile. “You better be like this.’

Caroline jumped off the bed and went into the bathroom to wash up. On the other hand, Edwin waited for a minute or two before lifting the blanket. He looked helplessly at his little brother, who seemed to be in high spirits.

Even though morning wood was a normal reaction for a man, he still felt a little awkward. So, he had no choice but to let Caroline wash up first while he went to the bathroom in the other room to clean up.

When Caroline came out of the bathroom, he opened the door and came in. From his expression, it was impossible to tell what had happened in the bathroom. The two of them went downstairs and walked to the big dining room on the first floor.

Eva, who had been drunk last night, had woken up. She was holding her swollen head as Danika pressed her down.

As soon as she saw Caroline, a wronged expression appeared on her face. “Ling, my head hurts.”

Caroline went forward and touched her forehead. Then, she helped her to tidy her clothes. “Who asked you to be so greedy last night? You didn’t even see what it was before you stuffed it into your mouth.”

Instead of Caroline’s comfort, she was reprimanded. Eva felt even more wronged. “I thought that was sweet fruit juice. The more I drink, the happier

I’ll be.”

Caroline glanced at her. “So you couldn’t help but drink more than half the bottle?”

Eva looked away guiltily and didn’t say anything.

Edwin took a cup of coffee from the maid and placed it next to Caroline. He then picked up a plate and gave her some of her favorite food. “Take a look at the cooking skills of the chefs in the manor. Do you like them?”

Caroline picked up the knife and fork, tasted it, and immediately gave a thumbs up. “Not bad.”

“Then you should eat more.” Edwin was relieved.

While they were having their meal happily, Butler Harriman came in with a box. “This box was found at the door early in the morning. It said that it was an engagement gift for you, Miss Caroline…”

“Harriman, you should change the way you address her,” Edwin suddenly interrupted.

Harriman paused for a moment and changed his words. “It said that it was an engagement gift for the Young Madam. We have just scanned the box and confirmed that there are no dangerous items in it.”

Caroline took the box and placed it on the table. She then tore off the seal on the box.

She raised her head and looked inside. When she saw what was inside, her pupils shrank and her expression changed immediately.

The person who gave her this gift probably had bad intentions. They either wanted to continue testing her, or they wanted to see if they could use this opportunity to drag her down..
