Chapter 449: Chapter 449: Leaving a Voice Without a Trace (1)

As a result of sleeping ten minutes late, Carolline Ruiz’s breakfast has to be taken care of in the car. Fortunately, Hawkins Family’s servants wake up early and had prepared her breakfast beforehand.

As Bryan Hawkins drives, Carolline takes care of her own meal while occasionally stuffing some food into his mouth. Bryan would sometimes mischievously hold her fingers in his mouth, causing Carolline to shyly recall everything that happened last night.

Even now, her waist feels sore, and the inner side of her thigh is very soft.

"Let’s return to our own home tonight." In the end, Bryan prompts suggestively.

Carolline was not sure whether it was due to her good memory or the fact that she used to be the girl who would do anything for Bryan’s sake. Anyway, she seemed to have a firm grasp of everything Bryan had said, whether it was nonsense or not.

Before leaving, Bryan had mentioned that when he returns, they should do it somewhere other than in bed. Because they stayed at Hawkins Family’s residence last night, they finally settled for the bathroom.

Carolline often reads about sofas, kitchens, balconies, and living rooms in books. She has also seen these places depicted on TV; her heart races and her face flushes when she watches such scenes. She couldn’t describe the feeling.

"...Where’s Axel?" Carolline asks. Axel, who is always glued to his father, only met briefly during dinner last night before she was taken to the bedroom. That might not be enough for Axel.

"With his grandparents and great-grandmother accompanying him, he won’t need us. Let’s enjoy our own world of two people." Bryan says unabashedly.

"..." Carolline is too lazy to respond, lowering her head and continuing to focus on her breakfast.

Soon, Bryan’s cellphone in the car rings with an incoming text message. Bryan follows the principle of not reading texts while driving, but he’s willing to answer calls with the help of a Bluetooth headset.

"Take a look for me." Bryan asks Carolline directly.

"Oh." Carolline wipes her hands with a tissue before picking up Bryan’s phone to check the message. It’s a text from an unmarked number saying just two words: Thank you.

Last night, there were two messages about the charity banquet, inviting Bryan to attend. Bryan replied with an OK, and then there’s this reply in the morning.

At that moment, Carolline doesn’t know why she was so sensitive. She didn’t even consider other possibilities, quickly guessing that the owner of this number must be Phoebe Miller.

Phoebe Miller does charity work all over the world, which has brought great prestige to the Miller Family internationally. Very few people have achieved such an honor, but Phoebe has, and even made her family more glorious in the process.

Carolline has considered that these two may still be in contact. People are usually like this - when they have not seen it with their own eyes, they can still deceive themselves, but once they witness it and the truth is confirmed, their hearts feel more or less uncomfortable.

"Who sent the message?" Bryan asks.

"Oh, I don’t know. It’s from an unmarked number." Hearing Bryan’s voice, Carolline quickly regains her composure and answers nonchalantly.

"Hmm, just leave it then. Keep eating breakfast." Bryan doesn’t think much of it, having long forgotten the messages Phoebe sent him last night.

"Don’t you want to check it out?" Carolline is a bit puzzled. To him, Phoebe should be considered an important person, right? Men are like that; the woman beside them and the woman deep in their hearts are usually not the same person.
