Kevin ignored her, so she felt a little awkward. She stood still and did not know whether to go in or to leave. After a long while, Kevin looked up. His eyes were cold and calm under those golden frames. "Why are you here?" Kevin had showered with cold water so as to calm himself from making love to Karen. That cold shower had given him a high fever and he went into a coma. This woman still had the mood to go to work. She had left him aside and didn't care for him. What a heartless woman. Kevin's face and attitude made Karen feel that he did not welcome her here. She felt uneasy and pursed her lips. "Special Assistant Amelia asked me to come to see you." Special Assistant Amelia had asked her to come. If he didn't let Amelia call her, would she not come at all? Kevin frowned, and his voice became colder and calmer. "Well, you've seen me. Go back to work then." "Oh... Okay." Karen forcibly suppressed the sadness in her heart, nodded with
Karen got up and sat down beside Kevin. She glanced at the table and found that there were more than a dozen dishes, most of which were spicy food, which was not suitable for patients after a high fever. After looking around, Karen fixed her eyes on a delicious bowl of porridge. Even if Karen didn't know much about medicine, she knew that the porridge had the effect of nourishing women and was healthy. She couldn't let Kevin drink this given his condition. Kevin usually ate lightly, and these dishes were also made by this aunt. Why did she make such dishes when she knew he was sick? After glancing around, Karen looked at Kevin doubtfully. "Are you sure these dishes were prepared for you by Aunt Jen?" "No." Kevin looked at Karen with deep and gentle eyes. "I have already eaten. These are specially prepared for you by Aunt Jen." Karen asked in surprise, "Was it prepared for me?" Kevin nodded. His simple words swept away the
Amelia and the others had been with him for many years. He treated them like friends and relatives, but more importantly, Karen was his wife. Doctor Steven also knew that what he had just said was too impolite. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Mrs. Kyle, nice to meet you!" Karen smiled politely and said. "Hello, Dr. Steven!" Amelia added, "This morning because I was too anxious, my tone towards Mrs. Kyle was impolite. Please forgive me." They had been by Kevin's side for many years. They were capable of handling affairs and were trusted by him. After so many years, they seemed to have become half of Kevin's family. It was because they knew Kevin too well and knew that he wouldn't get sick easily. If he ever got sick, it would be very serious. That was why things had unfolded the way they did this morning. Because they hadn't known Karen for a long time, they naturally regarded Karen as an outsider during an emergency. Only after, did they
None of the major media could get such explosive news about Leo Kyle. How did they get it and who would have the courage to expose such news? The Kyle family was a well-known family, which was rich and noble and also put great importance on the etiquette of family members. Therefore, there wasn't any bad news or scandals about the Kyle family in the past few years. Either they hid deep enough or they really trained themselves to be restrained. Anyways, the Kyle family always gave people the impression that they were low-key and polite. Hearing such news, Charlie was very excited but also felt a little worried at the same time. If the news were true, then he would ask Duncan to find a few beautiful women to serve Leo Kyle. If the news were false, sending women to Leo Kyle would be pointless which might even cause trouble to himself. So before deciding to do this, Charlie must know the source of the news and how reliable it was. Of course, Duncan
Although Karen was as attractive as the first time she met Charlie, she no longer appreciated his existence anymore. Now that Karen only cared about the man from the Kyle family, Charlie felt a tinge of jealousy. For a man who could only afford a cheaper car, which was only worth a hundred thousand dollars, why would she choose to marry Kevin? What did he do to win Karen's heart? All kinds of emotions welled up in Charlie's mind. He felt like something that once belonged to him was snatched away. In all his life, he always got what he wanted. He must win Karen back from Kevin. He continued, "His company is in danger now, but he still has not made a move yet. What on earth is he thinking about? Did I overestimate him? Maybe he is not as great as I think he is?" Duncan said, "Young Master, the Gook family is one of the strongest family here. Once the news is exposed, most companies will not cooperate with Innovative Tech anymore. In that case, his comp
When it came to Kevin, Karen's face instantly turned red, and she couldn't resist thinking of those dirty jokes that Faye said that night. Faye saw her blushing face and stretched out her hand to poke Karen's forehead. "You useless girl." "Faye, can we not talk about men? Let's talk about another topic." Karen did not want to continue the topic regarding Kevin anymore. If she accidentally spills any beans, she would definitely be scolded by Faye. As she spoke, Karen picked up the food and placed it in the pot. "Since you've flown for more than ten hours, let me serve you dinner tonight." "That's my girl." Faye smiled and said, "I haven't seen your man before. Are you not going to introduce him to me?" "I have planned to introduce you to each other for a long time, but you don't have enough time. He has been away for a business trip these days." Karen put the dishes on Faye's plate as she spoke. Speaking of the devil, Kevin called. Karen smiled
Hearing the voice, everyone looked back at the same time and saw a man in a silver-gray suit standing behind them. There seemed to be a faint smile in his eyes under the gold-rimmed glasses, but that smile made people chill from the bones, making people want to just fade away in the background. Duncan was the first to come to his senses. "Oh... I wonder who is it. It turned out to be Director Kyle, the boss of Innovative Tech. My young master also wants to see you, so you can go with us." However, Kevin did not even look at Duncan. He walked gracefully and steadily to Karen and reached out to touch her head. "I told you to try not to go out at night. You are always disobedient. You deserve to be punished." His voice was deep and seductive as usual, without any hint of emotions. One would say he would only act emotionally around Karen. Kevin's behavior made others think that he would really punish Karen for not going home after work. At the moment whe
Karen wanted to stop her, but she couldn't, because Faye would not buy any of her excuses. As for now, Kevin was driving the car with her sitting in the passenger seat, while Faye was sitting on the back seat admiring the car. "Hey, I told you, you are lucky though you don't want to admit this. For you to have a man that can afford this luxury car, you must have done a lot of good deeds in your last life." Karen really wanted to shut Faye's mouth up, and even wanted to throw her out of the window. But she couldn't do anything too bad in front of Kevin, so she smiled helplessly at Faye's remarks. In fact, she had scolded that d*mned girl more than a thousand times in her heart. Faye had acknowledged Karen's angry looks, but she just ignored them and kept talking. Sitting in the back seat of the car, Faye leaned forward slightly and asked, "Mr. Kyle, Karen, and you have been registered for so long. When are you going to hold a wedding?" Hearing Faye's
...... 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
