Since Karen Daly didn't want to say anything, Kevin Kyle wouldn't force her. He had always tried his best to respect her personal choice. Kevin Kyle said, "Then I'll go to the study to deal with some work matters." There were still a lot of things to deal with. If it were not for Karen Daly, Kevin Kyle would never have made time. "Okay, go do your things," Karen Daly gently closed the door and turned to the kitchen. She put on the apron and started preparing some vegetables. Her actions were not as quick as before, but it was still not bad. It didn't take long for three dishes and a soup to be made. Looking at the dishes, Karen Daly was still confident in her cooking skills. She knocked on the door of the study again, poked her head in and asked, "Mr. Kyle, the dishes are ready. Do you have time to eat?" Kevin Kyle smiled at her and said, "Mrs. Kyle, please give your Mr. Kyle just a few more minutes." Karen Daly made an OK gesture to him and sa
Kevin Kyle held Karen Daly's head and looked at her quietly, which made her so shy that she quickly shut her eyes. Her face was red as an apple, waiting for him to harvest it. Kevin Kyle couldn't help laughing out loud. His thin lips closed onto hers, and he kissed her gently, tasting her unique and wonderful taste. That kiss, was lingering, tender, and intoxicating... After a long time, Kevin Kyle let go of Karen Daly. He couldn't help licking her lips and calling her name in a low voice, "Karen Daly—" "Hmm?" "Promise me that you won't care about anything. Leave everything to me." How did he read her mind? Karen thought. Just when she was about to do take action, he asked her to not care about anything. However, she did experience this pain. She had suffered such unforgettable damage that she couldn't just forget them even if she wanted to. Kevin Kyle continued, "If you want to do anything, just tell me and we'll discuss it togethe
Although he hadn't experienced it personally, Kevin Kyle could feel Karen Daly's loneliness, helplessness, and fear. "Karen —" "Hmm?" She was tired. She leaned in his arms and answered in a daze, her brain had fallen asleep. I'm sorry! I didn't protect you well, so my family hurt you so badly. I won't let it happen again. Please trust me. Kevin said in his mind. ...... Kevin Kyle's Karen Daly was back. She was still the Karen Daly who was a little clever, a little naughty, a little barbaric, and a little shy. Every time he thought of Karen Daly, Kevin Kyle felt that his body was charged with constant power, and he was full of energy no matter what he did. Thinking of her, Kevin Kyle looked at the time. There was still a while before his meeting, so he dialed Karen Daly's number. "What are you doing?" "I was just thinking about you, and I'm going to find Samuel Daly now." Karen Daly's gentle voice came into Kevin Kyle's ear. He
Samuel Daly didn't want to believe the fact that Karen Daly had recovered her memory, but he had to. If she had not regained her previous memory and still had a trace of doubt in her heart, she would not be so indifferent to him. At this time, Samuel Daly deeply understood that Karen Daly, his pawn, would no longer be of use to him. He spent three years pretending to be a good father, taking care of her diet and living conditions, and taking care of everything about her. What was his purpose? He only wanted her to remember how good he was, for her to believe that he was her only kin, and to follow his every order. In the past three years, she showed that she was also an obedient and good daughter. She did whatever he said and almost never talked back. The drug had also been proven to not allow for any memory to be recovered. Especially after three years - the inflicted patients would never regain their memory. That's why he dared to bring Karen
Fifty million! Fifty million! Fifty million! That heartless creature, Samuel Daly, asked for fifty million. Why didn't he just go rob a bank? Karen Daly really wanted to turn around and leave, but she really wanted to know the reason as well. She wanted to know why all this happened to her. Samuel Daly naturally understood what Karen Daly was thinking, "Karen Daly, if this secret could be investigated so easily, Kevin Kyle wouldn't have asked for you to talk to me." Karen Daly looked at him and did not say anything. She wanted to see how many tricks he could play. Samuel Daly smiled gloomily, "Fifty million dollars, and not a penny less. You'd better discuss with Kevin Kyle." Samuel Daly actually knew that there would be no uncovered secrets in the world. As long as Kevin Kyle spent more time, he could find out the secret. But as long as Kevin Kyle had not successfully investigated anything yet, he would have his leverage in this bargain.
"Karen, don't worry, I'm here for everything." Kevin Kyle hugged Karen Daly, who was trembling slightly, into his arms, and whispered to her in a voice that only she could hear. Karen Daly was scared at first, but just when she was scared, Kevin Kyle came. He held her in his warm arms and gave her strength and comfort. "Good son-in-law, you are here." Samuel Daly smiled and addressed Kevin Kyle intimately, as if the two people standing in front of him were really his good daughter and good son-in-law. Kevin Kyle rubbed Karen Daly in his arms and looked up at Samuel Daly. His eyes were fierce. He said, "Samuel Daly, just tell me what you want." "Give me a new identity. Send me away from Chatterton Town, the further the better. I don't want the old man in your family to find me." There was no point in having money if he doesn't live long enough to spend it. As for his wishes for the Daly family's fame, it would come true one day as long as he stayed alive. "
"Who was the most important person to the old man?" The one who asked the question was Karen Daly, who could hardly contain her composure. In her heart, she hoped that this was all a misunderstanding. She hoped that Samuel Daly was lying to them, but she understood that he had no reason to lie. Samuel Daly shook his head and sighed deeply, "As for who it was, presumably my good son-in-law could guess it. As long as he continues to investigate, he will soon know who it is." After that, Samuel Daly closed his eyes and didn't want to say another word. Karen Daly still wanted to ask, but she was pulled off the plane by Kevin Kyle. On the way back, Karen Daly kept silent. Her heart was in a mess and she did not know what she should do. People said that the grievances of the older generation had nothing to do with the younger generation, but could it really have nothing to do with them? Could it be possible for her to just assume nothing had ha
When she saw the message, Karen Daly was extremely shocked, and she was terrified. She ran to Kevin Kyle's study room immediately, but Kevin Kyle was still busy with his work, his calm face showed that he had already expected this. Seeing Karen Daly's confusion, Kevin Kyle put his work aside and looked at her, saying, "Don't worry, I didn't do it." "Was it the Old Master who did it?" It was a question, but Karen Daly said it with absolute certainty. She believed that if Kevin Kyle swore by Little Karen, he would not do anything to Samuel Daly. "Yes." Kevin Kyle nodded. He would not betray his promise, but he would not defend or protect Samuel Daly either. He knew that the crew had been arranged by the Old Master, but he didn't expose it. Samuel Daly had done so many evil things, so someone would take revenge on him. He didn't need to do that himself. "Samuel Daly just died like that? Could it be just a cover-up? Could it be that in fact,
...... Eight months later. Adrienne had given birth to a daughter, gathering the entire Yard family in Chatterton Town. Everyone was in high spirits but Jefferson had a sour expression on, as if that was the worst day of his life. Sierra found a moment and went over to Jefferson. "Hey, Jeff. Adrienne just gave birth but why do you have such a long face on? Did you want a son instead or something?" Jefferson responded rudely, "It doesn't matter to me whether it's a boy or a girl. That little girl is our daughter, and I'll love her no matter what." Sierra continued, "Why do you look so upset then?" "Must I have a reason for that?" Well, he was angry at himself. Adrienne had almost lost her life in the labor room earlier, but he hadn't been able to offer any help. Throughout Adrienne's pregnancy, Jefferson had done an enormous amount of research and found out that a C-section birth was relatively safer. Hence, he'd insisted that Adrienne und
...... Johan was still clamming up. Maxtor was so anxious that he couldn't stand still. "Johan, what happened between you and Sierra? Can't you at least explain the situation to me?" After a long silence, Johan looked up and out of the window. "There have been so many fights and misunderstandings between us in the past years and it seems that the past was a time that we can never go back to." Upon hearing this, Maxtor seemed to have put his finger on the crux of the problem. "Did Miranda make Sierra misunderstand you?" Maxtor said earnestly, "Johan, I've told you before that woman has a twisted psyche and you need to stay away from her. You pitied her for being an orphan, but look at what she has been up to." "It has nothing to do with Miranda. It's me. If I..." If he had explained everything to Sierra back then, she wouldn't have felt that insecure about their relationship. He knew everything, but he still got mad at her. Maxtor continued, "He
...... On the first day of school, Miranda was once again met with an unpredicted truth. She found out that Sierra was the top scorer in the entrance exam. She was the overachiever that every university was dying to recruit. Not only did Sierra come from a good family, but she was smart and beautiful to boot. Sierra possessed everything she could have in life. Miranda couldn't figure out why she had to take Johan away from her when she already had so much. What made Miranda even more disappointed was not her inferiority but Johan. On the first day of school, she was over the moon to see that Johan was at the gate to receive her. However, when Johan took her luggage from her and she was wallowing in her excitement to see him, He said to her, "Miranda, that is the girl I like, Sierra. She will be your sister-in-law in the future. You should get on well with her." She didn't want to be nice to her. Instead, she hated her. Mirand
...... Johan's words frightened Miranda so much that her face turned pale. "Johan, Mrs. Silas adopted me. I would have died a long time ago if it weren't for her. How could I have nothing to do with the Silas family?" Johan's face was somber, and his voice chilled Miranda to her bones. "You know that my mother was the one who took you in, but look at what you've been up to all these years?" "Johan, what-what did I do?" Miranda said, trembling with fear. Miranda was an expert at feigning a pitiful appearance and reaping sympathy from others. She even managed to tear up and gazed heart-wrenchingly at Johan at that very moment. However, Johan did not buy into her ploy at all. Not only did his eyes demonstrate her no pity, there was also a trace of disdain that Miranda had never seen before. He loathed her. Upon realizing that, Miranda's heart was broken. Johan had been her dream for those past years. She had worked so hard to do so many things in
...... Sierra wasn't able to refute because what Miranda said was the truth. It was indeed true that many could never compare with her background. However, although she was born privileged, that didn't spare her from putting in effort for her own future. Prestigious universities wanted her because she was the top scorer in the entrance exam but not because of her family background and connections. All of a sudden, Miranda smirked sinisterly. "I know you like Johan, and you want to be with him. Sierra, I like him too, and I want to be with him. You have everything so why do you still want to take my man away from me?" "Excuse me? Who took your man?" Displeased, Sierra said, "Miranda, you were the one who told me that you two were siblings, and that there was nothing going on between you guys. And mind you, you were also the one who encouraged me to go after him." Miranda shouted in a low voice, "Sierra, if I hadn't told you that, would you have remained fri
...... Averting her gaze, Sierra turned around with difficulty. However, just as she had taken a step forward, Miranda's voice sounded from behind. "Sierra, I didn't expect you to come to the airport to pick me up. Imagine my delight to be able to see you on the first day of my return." "You've misunderstood, Miss Attwood. I'm not here to pick you up." Sierra did not conceal her hatred for Miranda as she could not even be bothered to dole out the niceties at her. Miranda chuckled. "I haven't seen you for so many years, but you're still so adorable." It seemed that Miranda couldn't sense the despise Sierra had for her. She approached Sierra with a smile and wanted to give her a hug. Sierra stared at Miranda's outstretched arms and quickly dodged her. A single glance at Miranda and her eyes would be sullied. Sierra thought that she would even throw up should her body come into contact with Miranda's. Miranda was never good at reading between the
...... Stopping her car, Sierra quickly got off to check the situation. No sooner had her feet been on the ground that four men got off from the car in front of her and surrounded her. One of them pointed at her and barked, "Don't you f*cking know how to drive? If you don't, then don't drive. Say it, how much are you going to pay for the damage!" Sierra was driving in accordance to normalcy, but the other party had, so suddenly, cut into her lane without a signal. As hard as she had stepped on her brake, she still collided with the car. They were supposed to be the ones held accountable for the collision. However, they got out of the car and shouted at her, extorting compensation. Sierra suspected that these men had done so deliberately to scam her. She took out her mobile phone and was ready to call the police. However, before she could even unlock her phone, one of the men had already wrenched the phone away from her. "We have something important t
...... In the middle of cleaning the table, Rosie said, "He doesn't only come here to have meals, but he would also get one to go every time. No jalapenos on the one to go. He says that you can't take spices because your stomach doesn't handle it well." Sierra did have a stomach problem, but it wasn't till the point that she couldn't take spicy food at all. Moreover, Johan had never brought any tacos back for her. Sierra figured that he was probably getting it for someone else so she asked, "What did he say to you when he asked you to pack it?" Rosie smiled and said, "He said that he was going to bring it for his girlfriend. He's obviously talking about you, isn't he?" "Oh, his girlfriend." Smiling, Sierra did not put forth any more questions as she knew that Johan had never regarded her as his girlfriend. For him, she was nothing more like a leech that he couldn't shake off. Rosie looked at Sierra and said earnestly, "I know you two fought tod
...... "My ability to act coy?" Sierra said inwardly. She had no idea from where did his temper sneak in again. However, she knew that somehow everything she had done seemed to piss him off. If he didn't like her, then why did he come looking for her? Did he have nothing else better to do? She smiled and said, "Mr. Silas, since you don't like being around me, then let's not meet anymore in the future, nor have any meals together. I'm afraid your appetite will take a nosedive when you see me." "You shouldn't say that, Sierra." Rosie handed one of the plates to Sierra and said, "Every couple gets into fights, but you must know your boundaries. Some words are too hurtful, and you shouldn't just say everything that comes to your mind." Sierra didn't make a sound. She wasn't a fan of others poking their noses in her affairs. Besides, she was not close to Rosie either so she found her rather meddlesome. Rosie didn't seem to register in her mind that Sierra was d
