Kevin Kyle never interfered with Karen Daly's work. Even though he bought over PM Corporation for Karen, he did not announce it to the public. So that wouldn't affect Karen's identity as an employee there. Today, when Karen went for the job interview at Bespoke Designs, he only knew about it because he followed her covertly. He didn't arrange it deliberately. He was misunderstood, but Kevin didn't bother to explain himself. He didn't owe anyone any explanation. After saying goodbye to Faye, he left. ...... After seeing her father today, Little Karen was so happy. When she returned home, her face was full of smiles. Seeing her skipping around while humming songs, Karen, who was busy drafting her design, asked curiously, "Baby, why are you so happy today?" "Shush! I can't say!" Little Karen raised her index finger and placed it on her mouth. She promised her father that she would never tell her mother, so she needed to fulfill her promise.
However, as soon as she felt better, her guard went back up again. This time, no one asked for her child. Maybe next time, someone would come asking for Little Karen on Kevin's behalf. As long as he wanted to, he could take Little Karen away no matter what. Karen wanted Little Karen around, but she could not be so selfish. If Little Karen was only with her, then what about Kevin? "Miss Daly, please take the parcel!" The delivery staff reminded her. "Oh, okay!" Karen didn't care about what gifts the gift shop in DD Plaza sent. She took the pen, and signed on the delivery list. She knew that Kevin raised Little Karen, it was reasonable that he wanted to get custody over Little Karen, but she still couldn't bear to let her go. She missed three years of Little Karen's childhood. She really hoped that she could stay with Little Karen every day from now on. The delivery staff left for some time, yet Karen still held Little Karen's hand and stood in t
Karen Daly helped Little Karen up. Suddenly, everything went black and she felt dizzy. She slipped and fell forward. "Ah—" Karen screamed out loud. "Mommy!" Little Karen acted fast. She just wanted to protect her mother out of instinct and pulled the corner of her mother's shirt tightly. Fortunately, Little Karen caught Karen in time and gave Karen a better sense of balance, so that she could stabilize her body steadily. She was physically fine, but Karen was scared out of her wits. Her face was pale with fear. For a long time, her heart was still beating so fast that she froze. If she had fallen to the ground earlier, how terrible the consequences would be. She touched her belly with her heart still fluttering with fear and she felt lucky that she was fine! "Baby, it's okay, don't be afraid, don't be afraid!" Karen placed her hand on her belly, trying to comfort the baby that might be frightened like she was. "Mommy, I'm not afraid!" Lit
For the past few days, Faye Reed would take Little Karen away on time and bring her back on time. Karen Daly knew that Faye brought Little Karen over to see Kevin Kyle every day, but she pretended that she didn't know. In fact, Karen was really grateful that Kevin did not take Little Karen away from her. She was grateful to Kevin for giving Little Karen to her. She did her design work every day, then she could spend time with Little Karen for the rest of the day. They enjoyed chatting along happily and she slept beside her every night. After she was done with her work every day, she would lay in her warm bed and look at the little fellow's pink face. Karen thought that all her hard work was worth it no matter how busy or tired she was. There was no need to worry that Little Karen would be taken away by Kevin. Karen focused on her design work and she completed her first order quickly. Previously, the clients met with Karen online and discussed their r
Heheh... Kevin Kyle sneered silently as he tightened his grip on his fists. He badly wanted to just walk over and carry Karen home to teach her a lesson. He wanted her to know that she could never escape from him in this life. No matter where she went, she will still be his woman. However, in the end, Kevin still did nothing... But no, he could not do anything, he told the driver to follow Karen wherever she went. He didn't want to disturb her and the children's lives, so he didn't arrange for his staff to follow her. Instead, he followed her personally to make sure that she was safe. Although the Yaleman family did not have much control and power in New York, and it was relatively safer compared to Chatterton Town, Kevin couldn't afford to be careless before he could completely bring the Yaleman family down. Today, Karen went out at the same time as Little Karen usually came over. He was afraid that something would happen to Karen, so he rushe
Now, the two of them no longer belonged to each other! Just like today, they barely acknowledged each other. Greetings seemed to be a luxury. Karen Daly shook her head and smiled. In fact, it was good for Kevin Kyle to forget her, wasn't it? In that case, the video that Chace Yaleman threatened her would no longer be spread out, and Kevin's reputation would not be affected. They had divorced. Kevin had nothing to do with her anymore, so she would not bring him any trouble in the future. Kevin's career would continue to grow stronger. Thinking of this, Karen felt much more relaxed in her heart. Didn't she do all of this just to make sure Kevin would be safe, and to let him live a good life? Karen did not want to think too much. She picked herself together and continued to prepare dinner. Whatever happened, she still had to continue with her life. The earth would not stop spinning just because you missed someone. Life went on. S
Besides designing and Little Karen, Karen Daly seemed to have forgotten about everything else. She became oblivious towards her surroundings and was often forgetful. People that were under immense pressure or had a lot on their minds would turn out like this. Karen was like that right now. It was not a big deal, but Karen was pregnant. What if this would harm the baby? "Since you know that it is late too, so why don't you rest now? Don't forget that you are pregnant. If you don't want to sleep, the child still needs to rest too." George was a little mad at how Karen didn't prioritize her health and safety. Karen smiled and explained herself, "I've promised the clients that I'll show them the first draft tomorrow. I'm not very satisfied with the draft I drew in the afternoon, so I'm changing it." Once she was inspired, Karen would give her 100%. She didn't need the clients to be very satisfied, but she needed to be satisfied with her own work. George
Looking at Karen Daly, Kevin Kyle suddenly lost control and shouted, "Karen, who do you think you are?" Did she really think she could make him worry about her for the rest of his life? Did she really think that he could not live without her? Karen had just been busy with the design drafts and devoted herself to it, but with her laptop being smashed to the ground and hearing his angry voice, she brought herself back to reality. As she saw how angry Kevin had gotten, Karen took two steps back in shock. She wanted to say something, but when she opened her mouth, she couldn't say anything at all. She had thought of the situations that might play out once they had a conversation, but none of them was this current situation. She was afraid of him, but at the same time, she felt lost and confused. She took two steps back, but Kevin took three steps forward. After several steps, she was pressed against the wall by Kevin. "Kevin, I..." Karen was afraid
...... 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
