On the way back to the hotel, Uncle Watson looked at Kevin in the backseat from the rearview mirror. He wanted to say something several times but did not dare to. After all, if the young master wanted to do anything, it was not something he, a driver, could control. Besides, the young master was young and strong. It was reasonable for him to take the girl home. In more than half an hour, the car stopped outside the hotel. Kevin got out of the car with a frown and walked to the hotel with Karen Daly in his arms. "Director Kevin..." Seeing Kevin come back with a woman in his arms, Amelia Gray, who was waiting at the hotel, greeted him immediately. She was much more surprised than Uncle Watson. It was only half a day that she wasn't with Director Kevin, yet the director came back with a woman at night. This was something that they had never dared to think about in the past. "Get someone to prepare a set of clean female clothes and send them
"Karen, you heard me, didn't you?" Kevin Kyle was ecstatic when he saw tears rolling down from the corner of Karen Daly's eyes. Karen! Karen! Karen! Kevin repeatedly called out for Karen, however, she did not provide him with any responses apart from the tears that she had just shed. Karen remained still. Kevin's aggressively palpitating heart slowed down and turned cold, as if it was being drowned by collapsing icy-cold glaciers which dampened his boiling excitement . He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and murmured, "Karen, are you really that reluctant and unwilling to wake up to see me?" "It's been three months. It's been three whole months. How long more do you want to sleep for? Do you want to sleep for a lifetime?" Suddenly, Kevin growled. At this very moment, he looked exactly like a wild beast going berserk, losing its rationality. However, he did not appear to be dangerous, instead, you could tell that he was in immense sorr
"Karen!" Kevin Kyle grabbed Karen Daly's hand in utter excitement. This time, he was 100 percent sure that he did not just hallucinate, but indeed, Karen moved. She gave him a response. "Karen, don't rush it, let's take it slowly. You can get up slowly..." Kevin was so exhilarated that he did not know what to do, just like a silly boy. It seemed inappropriate to hold onto Karen tightly, but he did not want to let go of her either. After going to great lengths, spending so much time and effort, the wait seemed like years... Upon Kevin's anticipation day and night, finally, Karen opened her eyes slowly. However, as she had been unconscious for too long, just as she opened her eyes, she felt a beam of glaring sunlight. The light hurt her eyes, and she tore uncontrollably. Instinctively, she shut her eyes. "Karen, don't worry. I'll draw the curtains together then you can try opening your eyes again." Through Karen's subtle movement, Kevin knew what she n
"Mommy, open your mouth, I'll feed you this apple!" Little Karen held a piece of the apple sliced by her father and fed it to her mother. As Karen Daly had woken up, Little Karen was ecstatic. No matter who she came across, she would brag happily and said, "My mom never wanted to leave me. Mommy loves me very much." Therefore, Little Karen took the initiative to feed her mother with the fruits her father had sliced. This was because her mother had just awakened and still did not have enough strength, so she needed to take good care of her mother together with her father. "Thank you, honey!" After Karen gently expressed her gratitude, she opened her mouth and bites the apple. When she bites the apple, she deliberately bites Little Karen's finger as well. "Mom, that's my finger!" Little Karen instinctively wanted to withdraw her little finger, but just as she wanted to move away, she stopped. Her father told her that her mother was very weak and asked her to
When she was caught peeping, Little Karen turned around and tried to escape. However, Kevin Kyle grabbed her and picked her up. "Little one, go out and look for Little Aunt." "But I don't want to!" Her father's tone was so menacing that Little Karen felt pitiful. She pursed her lips and showed a pitiful look, as if she was about to cry anytime. "Well, don't frighten our baby." Karen wanted to snatch her from Kevin Kyle, but because she was really weak, she couldn't carry Little Karen at all, so she had to persuade Kevin, "Kevin, what do you want to say? Please tell me quickly." Karen spoke up for their child. What else could Kevin say? He could only let Little Karen stay. Clever Little Karen immediately escaped from her father's arms and threw herself into her mother's arms. "Mom, I didn't see anything." "Since you said you didn't see anything, then I believe you." Karen fondled Little Karen's head lovingly. "Karen!" Kevin called out for Karen's name
In the blink of an eye, Karen Daly had been awake for ten days. Under Kevin Kyle's diligent care, her physical condition and mental state had very much recovered. Yesterday, the doctor officially announced that Karen could be discharged from the hospital, as long as she took enough rest for the time being. Karen's recovery and discharge from the hospital were definitely good news for the Kyle family. On this day, Mama Kyle and Mia Kyle had been preparing lunch since morning to welcome Karen home. At the same time, they also invited Karen's friends over for a gathering. Faye Reed and her husband were Karen's only friends in the United States, so there were only three extra guests. The relationship between the family and Karen was extremely close, so they could be considered as family. The whole family gathered together for a jolly time, and they hoped that their upcoming days would be much brighter. Karen had been lying in the hospital for more
It was the first time for Faye Reed at the Kyle family's mansion in the United States, and it was the first time for Karen Daly too. She was also surprised to see such a huge manor. She had always thought that their Secret Garden in Chatterton Town was ridiculously luxurious enough. That was a large manor, so large in a way that many people would still not be able to afford despite struggling hard for several lifetimes. However, compared to the Kyle family's mansion in New York, Secret Garden was pretty insignificant. Walking in from the main entrance, there were all kinds of leisure facilities around, such as pavilions, rockeries, fountains and so on. It seemed like a themed recreational park instead of a residential home. From this, it could be seen that the Rovio's financial resources and Kevin's capabilities were far beyond Karen's imagination. It seemed like she knew too little about Kevin. She was definitely not qualified to be his wife. As Karen was
Those times, it seemed to be fun for Kevin Kyle to clean up her mess. So Mia Kyle was also having fun creating more troubles for him. Her cold brother was really like a block of ice outside work. If she didn't create some fun for him in his pastime, he would probably be bored to death. However, these things had changed after Kevin got married. After marrying Karen Daly, Kevin's attention was no longer on Mia. All his attention, apart from work, shifted to Karen. He was much more considerate to Karen than he was to Mia. Thinking that her cold brother no longer paid attention to her, Mia also felt jealous sometimes. But when she thought about it again, without her cold brother, she still had Neil Brown. Although Neil never knew how to be kind to women, she could slowly guide him. Neil's temper was much better now than in the past. One night, when she was sleeping, she accidentally kicked Neil off the bed. It was rare for Neil to not lose hi
...... 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
