The restaurant that Kevin Kyle booked was on a rooftop and had a view of the city. It was near Mangrove Bay. One could enjoy the magnificent night view of Joy Coast when sitting in the restaurant. The scenery was beautiful, but the person sitting in front of him was even more beautiful. He understood how he would not be intoxicated by alcohol, but he would be intoxicated by this beautiful person. Beautiful scenery, delicious food, and a beautiful woman... all in front of him. He felt so blessed. The beauty of life was exactly this. Karen Daly was wearing a white knee-length dress today, which perfectly outlined her curves. Her slightly curled long hair was casually draped over her shoulders, which made her look slender and beautiful. Karen Daly's facial features were already beautiful, and her light makeup made her look even prettier. They sat in the dining room together, and unsurprisingly, they attracted the attention of a large number of people. Kevin K
"Kevin, I'll go with you." Karen Daly guessed that since Neil Brown called Kevin Kyle so late in the evening, it must have something to do with Amelia Gray. She wanted to follow him to see if there was anything she could help. Kevin stroked her head and said, "No, you can go home and accompany Little Karen." Karen grabbed him and did not speak. She blinked her beautiful big watery eyes and stared at him. Looking at her beautiful face, Kevin Kyle felt defeated. He reached out to grab the back of her head and pulled her to him. He leaned over and kissed her as if he was tasting the most delicious food in the world. He loved her so much that he couldn't let her go the moment he touched her. No wonder he felt that today's date lacked something, it's this kiss that was missing. After kissing her for a long time, Kevin Kyle slowly let go of her. Seeing her blushing face again, he lowered his head and said with a smile, "What a lovely child." Ka
Kevin Kyle rejected without any hesitation. "No." If there was any potential danger, he didn't want Karen Daly to take a risk. Neil Brown, however, didn't like Kevin Kyle's behavior of protecting his wife as if she was a child. He slapped Kevin's shoulder and said, "This is my territory. Are you worried that the woman will hurt my nephew's wife?" Karen Daly echoed, "Uncle has a point. I'm not a three-year-old child. Besides, you're all just out here. What can she do to me?" Kevin Kyle realized that he might have been overprotective. Karen was much more independent and powerful than he had imagined. He had always wanted to protect her under his wing and he ignored her strength. It was impossible for him to stay by her side all the time. Take the incident from three years ago, there will always be room for mistake, so he should give her some space and let her learn to manage some things on her own. Just as Kevin Kyle was hesitating, Neil Brown gave Kar
From her words, Karen Daly could tell that Amelia Gray knew that there was a plan to hurt them, but she and Kevin Kyle didn't know what it was at the moment. Since she could interpret this information from their conversation, she believed that Kevin Kyle and Neil Brown should understand the same. Karen Daly continued, "Amelia, you don't have to think about anyone else. You better focus on yourself and think about your situation now." "Speaking of which, you're not old. You're only a few years older than Kevin. You're educated and talented. It's a pity..." Karen Daly shook her head. "It's a pity that you don't know how to cherish your life and no one can help you." "Ugh..." Amelia Gray was increasingly agitated. The fact that she could betray Kevin Kyle, meant that she had already gone beyond her limits. Death was really not so terrible to her at this moment. Karen Daly continued, "Life is short, and life is fragile. If it's gone, it will never come back. Y
Kevin Kyle looked at Amelia Gray and said coldly, "If you want to see me so badly, I'm here. I'll give you a chance to speak." "Director Kevin..." Amelia Gray was so excited that her voice was breaking, and her tears burst out like a waterfall. She rushed forward, but fell to the ground because she was locked to the chair. She stretched out her hand desperately, trying to touch Kevin Kyle's trouser, but Kevin Kyle stood so far away... He was always so far away, as far as the end of the sea, and as far as being in another world. He was right beside her, but she couldn't touch him. "Director Kevin, Director Kevin—" She called Kevin Kyle again and again in an infatuated tone, as if she was calling her lover. Kevin Kyle frowned slightly and said with a serious look, "Say what you want to say." "Director Kevin, do you know? You definitely don't know, because I was never in your eyes. Or maybe you have never treated me as a woman before. I worked so
On the way home, Karen Daly could only think about Amelia Gray's words. She was worried about Kevin Kyle's health. After a long while, Karen's thoughts strayed to her conversation with Amelia on the real identity of Old Master Kyle. Assistant Hart was from Country A, and Amelia Gray was from Country A. They all worked hard for Old Master Kyle. If the Old Master was not from Country A, then what was his true identity? Despite thinking for a long time, Karen Daly still couldn't think of an answer. The current Old Master Kyle was the biggest threat to Kevin Kyle. She could not sit and just let the danger slide by without informing Kevin Kyle. She could not allow Kevin to unknowingly present himself to this huge threat. Karen kept thinking, then she looked at Kevin. She asked seriously, "Kevin, when you were young, who loved you the most in your family?" "My grandfather." Grandpa Kyle was the first person that came to Kevin's mind. Kevin Kyle had a
"Kevin." Karen Daly pulled Kevin Kyle, who was about to turn around and leave, and said, "You told me that no matter what happens, we'll face it together." "Alright." Kevin Kyle rubbed her head and smiled gently. "Just go to bed first." "Kevin—" Karen Daly still wanted to say something, but when she saw the pain and reluctance in his eyes, she swallowed her words back. For him, it was painful to be hurt by his own grandfather. His grandfather, who used to love him so much, had been secretly replaced by a stranger for more than 20 years. No one knows whether he was alive or dead at all. If his grandfather was still alive, how did he spend the past 20 years? If he were dead... In the past 20 years, Kevin Kyle had treated his enemy as his own grandfather. How painful and angry would his grandfather be, watching this from Heaven? Karen could only imagine his pain. This kind of pain, along with deep guilt and anger, was like venomous fangs of a pois
Faye Reed was Karen Daly's best friend and Little Karen was her only child. They were both important to Karen Daly. Karen Daly would rather exchange her own life for another person's safety, instead of using her best friend's and her daughter's lives for a gamble. How could Assistant Hart, who was by the Old Master's side and worked loyally for him, understand her pain? Karen Daly also understood that the purpose of Assistant Hart's threat was not really Little Karen nor Faye Reed, he just wanted to take revenge on her. If she really stupidly sent Little Karen over in exchange for Faye Reed, none of them would come back safe. They kidnapped Faye Reed to threaten and take revenge on Karen Daly, in order to let her understand that she made a wrong decision from the moment she decided not to follow their instructions. "Let's take care of Miss Reed then!" From the phone, Assistant Hart spoke again, then she heard the sound of Faye Reed's scream aga
...... 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
