She could hear Kevin's voice ringing in her head---Karen, don't be afraid, I'll stay by your side forever. Kevin's voice was still as deep and seductive as before, but he left her just like that, as if they were strangers. She questioned him not because she thought that he was the murderer who had killed her father, but because she wanted him to explain. She wanted him to tell her that he had not done those things, so she could be assured. However, not only did he not deny it, he even admitted it. Was he so desperate to abandon her? At that thought, Karen felt lost and cold, as if her heart had been dug out of her body. She wanted to cry, but she realized that she had cried too much and she lost her strength. She could only let the sadness engulf her and slowly crush her. The two of them led very different lives. Perhaps it was a mistake for them to get together... That's why their married life became so difficult and hard. Well, she had tried
"Damn it!" Kevin cursed, then he put the phone away and chased after Karen immediately. It was now very obvious that someone was stirring things up and trying to pull their relationship apart. Karen had just received news that Kevin was the mastermind behind Herbert Ken's murder, and at the same time, Kevin received photos of Chace Yaleman kissing Karen. With these two things put together, it would definitely cause them to argue... and now George was in trouble. Damn it! Kevin quickly caught up to Karen and pulled her back, almost roaring: "Karen, calm down!" "Let me go! Let me go! Kevin, let me go!" Karen tried to push him away, but Kevin just tightened his arms around her and pulled her into his arms. She was so anxious that she bit his chest, "My brother said that you were the mastermind for father's murder. I didn't believe him. He said you were going to get him. I still didn't believe him... Kevin, can I still trust you?" "The murder
The royal family from Country A was visiting Chatterton Town! This news made it to the headlines immediately and attracted the attention of all citizens of Chatterton Town. Although Country A wasn't the most powerful country in the world, they were still quite influential. For this international event, the guests were important members of the royal family of Country A. Their correspondents were the highest-ranking officials of Chatterton Town and some representatives from the government. This news spread like wildfire on the internet. It was impossible for anyone to miss it, including Karen Daly, who was worrying about George Ken and Kevin Kyle. After a whole day of shouting, Karen was both mentally and physically tired. Little Karen was tired as well as she lay in her mother's arms, unable to keep her eyes open. Just as Karen was putting Little Karen down for a nap, she received a notification from her phone recommending the latest news. She u
Karen, I really like you! I like you so much that I can't live without you! I like you so much that I can't even explain! There were many things Kevin wanted to tell Karen, but he had never said such romantic things before. Today was the first time, and it may possibly be the only time that he would confess his true feelings for her. These years, he had changed a lot. He was no longer just a cold, emotionless big boss. He was a good husband who was considerate of his wife and a good father who loved his daughter. However, something that hadn't changed was his way of expressing love. As a man, he liked to express his love through actions. He took care of her, spoiled her... did everything which he thought a husband should do for his wife. He was just a man who's not good at expressing his feelings with words. The reason why he would suddenly confess to Karen like this was because what she just said was very shocking. When
Chester was quickly brought in by Nick. Standing a few steps away from Kevin, he watched him warily, "Di-director Kevin, you asked for me?" Although he often appeared near Nick as they worked on Kevin's commands, he had never reported directly to the director before. When he heard that Director Kevin asked for him, he immediately recalled if he had done something wrong lately that the director wanted to deal with him personally. But on second thought, even if he did something wrong, he only needed to report to Nick. There was no need for the director to step in. "Where were you and what were you doing on the night of Herbert Ken's incident?" Kevin appeared calm, but his looks could definitely kill. "I... I was hanging out with Maynard and Raymond." Under Kevin's gaze, Chester felt like he was standing in a torture chamber. Even though he remembered clearly what he was doing that night, he stammered to say it. "Nick, call in the other two as well." Ke
"Her father is a big piggy, so she is a piggy too." Karen played along with Kevin. "Then we're all piggies." Kevin rubbed Karen's head and gently held her in his arms. "So did our baby torture you in the belly today?" Of course, Kevin sounded relaxed only because he had been updated about Karen and the baby's condition. If Karen's emotions were stable, then the baby would be fine. The baby would definitely come to this world safe and sound. Karen laughed and replied softly, "I took care of both baby piggies very well while you were busy out there. They have been nothing but absolute darlings to me." "I am not a baby piggy. I am a good girl." Little Karen had been sleeping since the afternoon. She had already woken up when her father pinched her face, but he was too busy being lovey-dovey with her mother that they didn't notice her. "Yeah, you are a good girl." Kevin carried Little Karen out of bed, "Little Karen, let's have dinner together." Li
In a short while, the jam Little Karen wanted was sent over. However, that girl had already eaten a few strawberries and some other food. She was already feeling quite full. "Daddy, I don't want the jam anymore." Little Karen touched her belly and looked at her father with a sweet smile. "Okay, Don't eat it if you don't want to." Kevin reached out and rubbed Little Karen's head. Then, he carried her onto his lap. That cheeky girl. She was still so young and she was already using her smile to pull his heartstrings. What would she do in the future? "Thank you Daddy!" Little Karen stood up, hugged her father tightly, and gave him a kiss, "I love you the most." Kevin pursed his lips, "Don't you love strawberries the most?" Little Karen stared at her Daddy with her eyes wide open, wearing a cute expression of shock and innocence. Daddy wasn't being cute at all. How could he expose her like that? Sure, she loved eating strawberries the most, but the
From then on, he could no longer forget the woman who wore his 'Butterfly Love'. She was as beautiful as an angel. He tried hard to forget, but he failed again and again... So he decided to follow his heart and go for what he wanted. Even though she's Kevin's woman, and even though he couldn't compare to Kevin in many ways, it didn't bother him much. As long as he worked hard, he could get anything he wanted. So what if she was Kevin's woman? After all, Kevin was just a man. He was not made of steel and iron; he was all flesh and blood. A gunshot or a sharp knife could kill him. "Young Master, is this real?" The middle-aged man looked at the video and could not believe that his young master could get such an important treasure. "Take a closer look and see if it's real." Chace responded without turning his head. "Young Master, do you mean that this is not the real Kevin?" The middle-aged man stared at the man on the computer screen again a
...... 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
