Chapter 52
Chapter 52
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 company will need a miracle to turn the situation around."
In the beginning, Charlie was still treating that company as a competitor, but now he found out that Kevin is not as strong as he thought. It seemed that he really overestimated the important individual.
"Karen, why did you stay by the side of such a useless man? Come back to me. I can give you all that you want, isn't that better?" Charlie ignored Duncan's existence and murmured to himself.
Duncan added, "Young Master, do you need me to warn Kevin? He's too dull to understand the real purpose of you is to win Miss Karen back."
"Go and arrange a meeting with him." Charlie spat out, "I want to meet him and let him know the difference between us. He doesn't deserve the woman I love."
......
It had been a few days after Kevin recovered from a fever, and Kevin had already left for a business trip for a few days, but Karen was still stuck in that day.
Karen felt that Kevin was acting very strangely that day. He spoke to her in a very seductive voice, and he looked at her with a very gentle gaze that she had never experienced before.
That day, she said she will rest with Kevin for a while, but in the end, she slept longer than him.
When she woke up, she looked at Kevin's charming eyes. His gaze was so charming, yet it appeared to mix with emotions.
When she was about to say something, he suddenly lowered his head and kissed her hard. He kissed her so hard she could not catch her breath, then he said something.
"Karen, are your lips made from poppy?"
Karen didn't know what he meant and tried to clarify, but when she saw his naughty smile, Karen instantly knew that poppy is something poisonous and leaves a long-lasting stain once you've touched it!
Thinking about what Kevin said, Karen subconsciously pursed her lips, which still felt numb from his kiss.
"Karen, what is on your mind? I am already here for a long time, but you still ignored me."
Faye's voice brought Karen cruelly back to reality. Karen then saw Faye staring at her in disappointment.
Karen quickly poured her a cup of tea and said, "Sweetheart, I am sorry you have to bear with me like this. Here, have a cup of tea."
Faye sat down in front of Karen and picked up the teacup, then, she took a sip of tea, but she did not stop staring at Karen.
Faye looked at Karen for a long time and said, "Look at your face, it's glowing. It's written all over your face. I'm in love! I'm in love!"
Faye's voice was very loud, and she didn't care if there were other people around them. As soon as she said this, everyone at the table next to them turned and look at them.
Karen glared at her and said, "Miss Reed, can we take care of our image? Don't make us a joke to people around us, okay?"
Faye glared at the men who looked at them while getting rid of her coat. "Such a beautiful woman is sitting here, they had already cast their eyes on you from the beginning. It's just that you were too busy thinking about your man and didn't notice."
When Faye walked into the restaurant, she did not look for Karen immediately, instead, she was following those men's eyes. She would definitely find Karen from the men's gazes.
As Faye expected, following the gaze of the two performers, she saw Karen sitting in the corner.
She was in her beautiful dream and was not aware of the gazes around her.
By seeing Karen so in love, it meant that she had already gotten over her past relationship. Faye was very happy for Karen.
"It seems that the only way to stop you from talking so much is to stuff your mouth with more food." Karen handed the menu over to Faye. "I ordered the double-flavored hotpot. I'll leave the dishes to you."
"Beef slices, cabbage, mushrooms... All of these are essential when eating hotpot." Faye mentioned no less than ten dishes without panting. It's proven that she really loves to eat.
Karen and Faye had been visiting most of the good restaurants since high school. Once, they loved eating food in a restaurant and written an article for the restaurant. The article was then picked up by a food magazine. The editor of the food magazine found them and wanted to have them write a column in the magazine.
The two of them had been friends for about ten years now. For Karen, Faye was an important person in her life. She was so much more than just an ordinary friend or a classmate.
Faye ordered the dishes and then took out a gift box from her bag. "Girl, this is especially for you. I hope you like it."
Karen looked at the exquisitely wrapped gift box and was about to open it. "What did you buy for me?"
"Karen, this is a surprise for you. Go home and open it." Faye hurriedly stopped her from opening the gift. If Karen opened the box now, it will draw the attention of everyone in the restaurant.
Karen did not think too much about it. She put down the box and poured tea for Faye. "Sebastian Spencer said he would come back with you, but why did you come back alone?"
"A company like Rovio is too big. It's not easy to apply to be transferred back to the USA. The approval process alone could also be time-consuming." Speaking of this, Faye was filled with anger. What a sh*tty company!
If it weren't for the fact that Rovio gives out high pay and the experiences had been pleasant, she would definitely ask her man to change his job.
Karen smiled. "Why don't I lend Momo to you and let it accompany you for a few days?" Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
"Do you want Momo to accompany me or just to remove the third wheel from your house?" Faye looked at Karen judgmentally, "You naughty girl, your complexion has improved a lot. It seems that your man had been nourishing you well."
