"Okay, okay. You're right. Our Director Kevin is always right." Karen Daly walked behind him and helped him massage his shoulders. "Mr. Kyle, you've been missing your daughter for so long that you can't sleep, right?" Kevin Kyle said stubbornly, "I didn't." Karen added, "Your daughter is just as stubborn as you. If you ignore her, I doubt she would talk to you too." Kevin's face darkened again, and the blue veins on his forehead were protruding. Karen continued to say, "She's our daughter. If you are happy with making her feel bad, then just ignore her." Over the past few days, this man had been thinking too much about his daughter. As someone closest to him, how could Karen not know? She just didn't expect that both the father and daughter were so stubborn that neither of them wanted to contact the other first. Kevin continued flipping through the documents, but he didn't reply. "Kevin, when did you know about Jayden's feelings for Karen?" Kar
"Dad..." Karen Joy Kyle raised her voice a little and reached out to take away the documents in Kevin Kyle's hand. "If you're going to ignore me, I'm going to leave." She put her pink and tender face close to him and said proudly, "Dad, when I leave, you will actually miss me, won't you?" "Try me, see if I will," Kevin finally replied her and his tone sounded a little softer. No matter how much he disagreed with her, when Kevin saw her that cute face of her, especially since she looked so much like Karen Daly, how could he speak to her with such harsh words? "Dad, you really don't miss me?" Karen Joy threw herself into Kevin's arms and rubbed against his chest like a child. "You won't miss me, but I'll miss you very much." "Miss me?" His daughter had finally learned to comfort him just when she was 18 years old. If she really missed him so much, why didn't she call him? If he didn't take the initiative to come to her, she would probably never come ba
Kevin Kyle was a germaphobe. The rooms he stayed in were specially reserved for him by the hotels under Rovio. Others could not stay in his room. That night, when he returned to the hotel, he immediately saw Karen Daly whom he had not seen for a week. He was very excited to see her. Unexpectedly, there was also another woman that was in the room, and she looked unkempt. He frowned as he looked at Karen, and looked at her with suspicious eyes. Instead, Karen glanced at him with a death glare, and she walked out of the room. "Karen, what's going on?" Kevin grabbed Karen and held her in his arms. "What's going on?" Karen broke out of his arms and looked at him angrily. "Director Kevin, how can you ask me what's going on?" Kevin felt helpless and reached out to grab her. He raised his voice, "Let's talk about this. Don't mess around!" Karen shook off his hand. "Who's messing around here?" Yes, who was messing around? She wanted to give him a
Karen Joy Kyle turned around and saw their little precious standing just a few feet behind her. He was wearing a little white shirt and trousers. At first glance, he looked like a miniature version of her father. He was only eight years old, but he had already looked like a young adult and always put on a proud and cold look. If it weren't for the fact that she knew him too well, she would have thought that he was trying to scare her. "Hey, little precious? Why are you here too?" Karen Joy walked to the little one and rubbed his face. "You are still so young, why are you making a poker face all the time? You should smile more and act cute. Then you will have more girls who like you in the future." "I don't need them!" Julien Kyle replied seriously, his face turning red. He knew that there were many girls who liked him, but he didn't like any of them. "You really don't need them?" Karen Joy approached him and poked his face. "Little precious, te
Looking at the backs of his wife and children as they walked in front of him, Kevin Kyle felt that his world was completed. He had a kind and loving wife, a beautiful and clever daughter, and a sensible son. Wasn't this the definition of success for a man? "Dad, hurry up and keep up." Karen Joy Kyle turned back and shouted at Kevin, fearing that her father would do something that would make her mother unhappy again. "Okay." Kevin nodded and walked faster to catch up with them. He had a slight smile on his face. Karen Joy felt relieved when she saw that Kevin caught up with their speed, "Mom, you haven't told me why did you guys come?" "Because I miss you very much, that's why I came here." Karen replied in a gentle voice. Actually, Kevin was the one who missed their daughter very much. He was afraid that their daughter would be mistreated here, so they decided to come to Coast City to visit their daughter. After Kevin arrived in Coast City, he
"You haven't seen it but you already like it?" Kevin Kyle raised his eyebrows and asked faintly. He arranged all of these for her. His purpose was to make his daughter happy so that she could live in a foreign country as freely as she lived in her home. But his daughter didn't even look at the room yet and already said that she liked it... This made him doubt whether his daughter really liked his arrangements or not. Karen Joy Kyle hugged her father and said sweetly, "Dad, as long as you're the one who prepared it for me, I will definitely like it." Her father had never let her down since she was a child. He knew her own preferences better than she did. This was her father... he was cold in the eyes of outsiders, but he was always gentle and considerate towards her. "Okay, if you don't like it, I could get someone to change it." Kevin gently rubbed his daughter's head and looked at her with a loving gaze. "Dad, I love you!" Karen Joy grew up in
With a cute face, Julien Glover Kyle said seriously, "Mom, I'm not..." "Little precious, little precious, little precious..." Julien had not yet finished his words but Karen Joy Kyle continuously teased him with his nickname. Julien had no choice but to lower his head and eat obediently. As the saying goes, women are hard to get along with. The two women in the family took advantage of his father's love for them and ran amok every day. No one could afford to offend them. ... At the end of September, the temperature in Coast City was getting colder. It was especially cold at night. With the whistling of the cold wind, it meant that winter was arriving. But the cold did not appear to affect some people, and they could continue with their daily routine like normal. For instance, Kevin Kyle was one of them. He had other matters to attend to tonight, so he left to the dinner meeting with his adopted son, Jayden Kyle, and Nick Black. When
Nathaniel Cooper did not answer. Kevin Kyle added, "My daughter has always been a treasure in our family ever since she was young and she was never once mistreated or hurt before. Besides not letting her down, you need to hold her in your arms and care for her like we always do." This was the first time that Kevin spoke so much to an outsider, and it was not even related to work. Although he knew that he was being a little demanding to request that Nathaniel treated Karen Joy like how their family did, Kevin would never hand his daughter over if he couldn't achieve this. Nathaniel knew what Kevin wanted very well, but he couldn't say anything nice to him, so he only kept silent. He knew very well that in his life, besides being loyal to Karen Joy, he needed to provide her the care and freedom of a princess. He had to be her strongest support so that she would be as happy as she used to be when she was a child. Since Nathaniel said nothing, Kevin was
...... 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
