Just as Andy heaved a sigh of relief, a cry of surprise came from behind.
She turned her head and saw someone riding a skateboard and crashing into the two middle-aged men who were following them. At first, Andy thought it was a coincidence, and she even cheered in her heart, “Great!”
However, the girl suddenly raised her head and looked in their direction. Although her gaze did not fall on them, Andy happened to see her eyes and her heart skipped a beat.
Although it was just a quick glance, she should not have mistaken her. The girl’s eyes and brows looked exactly the same as Caroline’s.
When Andy realized this, she saw that the girl in black had escaped. She subconsciously pulled Julie and ran into the mall under the cover of the crowd.
If that person was really Caroline, why did she dress up like that? There was probably only one reason. She did not want to be recognized.
Andy clearly remembered that when they left the campus, Caroline was still packing her things in the classroom. Julie turned around and whispered, “Maybe I can try to invite Caroline back next time.”
At that time, she had even complained about it, telling her not to waste her efforts.
From this point of view, Caroline’s sudden appearance here in a different outfit and coincidentally bumping into those two guys shouldn’t be purely coincidental.
Did this mean that the person following them were not ordinary thieves?
However, she and Julie were just ordinary students. They had never offended anyone. Who would go to the trouble of hiring someone to tail them?
Thinking of this, she suddenly remembered what happened to Caroline. What if those people were not after her and Julie, but Caroline?
Was that why Caroline had rushed over in time to help them out?
If her guess was correct, then she could understand why Caroline was so kind to them on the day of the physical examination, but suddenly gave them the cold shoulder the next day.
Perhaps she had discovered something and had no choice but to distance herself from them.
When Andy thought of this, she felt a little complicated. She wished that she had seen wrongly and guessed wrongly. Therefore, after she and Julie parted ways, she suddenly thought of going to the school to take a look.
She guessed that if that person was Caroline, then she probably didn’t have much time to avoid people on the road to change her clothes, so she probably finished changing near the school.
Andy guessed that if she didn’t want to expose her identity and was careful, she would return to school.
When the car stopped at the school gate, Andy realized that her thoughts were too ridiculous. She couldn’t just assume that the girl was Caroline just because she looked very similar to Caroline, and she even made a trip back just because of a baseless guess.
Just as she lost her patience and was about to ask the driver to turn around and go home, she noticed Caroline walking out of a restaurant across the street.
Caroline was really still at school!
Andy’s mind was in a mess for a moment. She didn’t know what to think, but she was more certain about her guess.
Caroline didn’t know that she had accidentally exposed herself. After she got into the car, Edwin took her bag and put it away. He said sincerely, “I’m glad to receive your message.”
He was in the middle of a meeting when he received Caroline’s message, asking him to pick her up from Alexandria College.
Although he didn’t know the reason, Edwin was very happy when he saw the message. He immediately stopped the meeting and ran over from the company.
Ever since Caroline went to school normally, he began to get busy again, causing the time they spent together to be greatly reduced.
Under normal circumstances, Caroline wouldn’t bother him with such a small matter like picking her up and sending her to and from school. There must be a reason why she suddenly did this.
However, Edwin was considerate enough not to ask her why, but asked, “Then where do you want to go next?”
Caroline thought for a moment. “Didn’t you say last time that there was a restaurant with a beautiful night view? Why don’t we go over there and take a
look?”
When Edwin heard this, he immediately asked Oleg, who was sitting in the passenger seat, to reserve a seat.
Unfortunately, Oleg called to ask, and the reply he got was that their restaurant had been reserved until next month.
It was not uncommon for good restaurants to be fully booked early, but the restaurants that Edwin frequented would specially reserve a VIP room for him..
