Chapter 20


    Recalling the things that Kevin had said to her all this time, Karen suddenly felt that it was possible


    that Kevin did not like women.


    For the entire night and the next two days, all Karen could think of when she was free, was this the


    problem. When she sank deep into thought, she could not even hear her phone ring.


    May walked over and knocked on her table. "Karen, your phone has rung several times. Why don''t


    you answer it?"


    Karen reacted quickly. She grabbed her phone and found that the three missed calls were all from


    Kevin.


    She bit her lip and called back. Kevin answered the phone but did not speak. It seemed that he was


    waiting for her to speak first.


    Karen scratched her head and said cautiously, "I was busy earlier, so I didn''t hear the phone ringing.


    Is there anything you want to tell me?"


    After a long silence on the other end of the phone, Kevin''s low and sexy voice spoke, "I was just


    calling my wife, checking up on her, in my free time in between work."


    Karen smiled silently. "Well, I see."


    In actual fact, at this time, Kevin had juste back from his business trip. He wanted to tell her


    that he was back, but suddenly wanted to see her reaction when he surprises her, so he did not tell


    her.


    Amelia knocked on the door and came in. "Director Kevin, Rovio Corporation Inc''s headquarters in


    Chatterton Town will bepleted next month. This will also be a newndmark in Chatterton


    and even in the whole of Asia. The word that you are in Chatterton has gone around. The people


    who want to see you have already made appointments up to three monthster. I''m afraid that you


    won''t have much free time these days."


    "When have I been idle these years?" Kevin waved his hand gesturing for Amelia Gray to leave the


    room. Suddenly, he thought of something and asked, "I was walking around and heard someone


    talking about 500 dors."


    Kevin usually didn''t care about gossip, but he overheard Karen''s name by chance, so he asked


    casually.


    Amelia said with a smile, "Not long ago when we were organizing thepany retreat, everyone


    was betting on whether you would join or not. Speaking of which, I have to thank Karen. She had


    bet that you will join. So I also bet 500 dors on that and won hundreds in the end."


    Kevin narrowed his eyes under the golden mirror, and his face darkened instantly.


    It turned out that Karen had hoped him to participate in the event just for 500 dors.


    Was it possible that he, Kevin, was not as important as 500 dors?!


    Noticing his face turn dark, Amelia pretended not to see it and added, "Director Kevin, you didn''t


    use to participate in such activities in the past. This time, you went there for Karen, right?"


    Kevin nced darkly at Amelia. "Don''t you want to get off work early?"


    Amelia quickly left.


    Kevin''s face was displeased for the whole afternoon. He did not say a word, wondering why he was


    not as important as just 500 dors.


    ......


    Karen did not know that Kevin had returned. When she went home, she only prepared a meal for


    one, and Momo''s dog food.


    While she was eating, Kevin opened the door and walked in.


    When he looked over, Karen had a mouthful of rice in her mouth and a bone in her hand, feeding


    Momo. The vision of her with the dog was very warm and weing.


    Kevin nced at them coldly and said nothing.


    Karen quickly swallowed her food and hurriedly exined, "I didn''t know you were back, so I didn''t


    wait for you to eat."


    Kevin changed his shoes but still didn''t say anything.


    Karen was so embarrassed that she didn''t know what to say. Momo, who was next to her, suddenly


    jumped at Kevin and barked at him a few times.


    Kevin''s face grew even darker. He frowned and looked at the dog, who was trying to im


    dominance in front of him.


    Seeing Kevin''s face, Karen felt a sense of danger. She immediately pulled Momo back into her


    arms and said, "Kevin, don''t bother yourself arguing with her."


    Faye was going to Europe to look for Sebastian Spencer. Of course, she would need to take care of


    Momo.


    The corner of Kevin''s mouth twitched again and again. It seemed that he was really angry. If he had


    not been brought up well, he would have thrown the puppy out.


    However, he did not say anything. He went straight to the bathroom and took a bath. After entering


    the study, he never came out again.


    Karen guessed that Kevin probably didn''t like the dog, so she couldn''t help but hold Momo tighter.


    "Momo, Uncle Kevin doesn''t seem to like you. What should I do?"


    Momo seemed to feel that she was unwee here, and whimpered.


    Karen stroked her head and said, "Don''t be afraid. I won''t leave you alone. Tomorrow, I''ll take you to


    Aunt Faye''s house. I''ll stay there until shees back."


    With a few whines, Momo''s round head rubbed Karen''s face twice, like a sensible child who


    understood.


    Looking at Momo, Karen felt distressed.


    Momo had been taken in by Karen three years ago when she first came to Chatterton Town. At that


    time, Momo had been seriously injured and had almost died. Karen found her and sent her to the


    animal hospital in time to save her life.


    Later, she kept Momo by her side and since then, it has been three years. Her feelings for this little


    pet were like how she would feel towards her own child.


    Before Kevin, Karen had been on countless dates, and she brought Momo along every time.


    However, she didn''t bring Momo on the blind date with Kevin, but she had married Kevin instead.


    If she had known that he couldn''t ept Momo, perhaps she wouldn''t have agreed to marry him.


    However, now that the marriage had be a fact, she couldn''t separate from Kevin just for a dog.


    After thinking for a while, Karen picked up her mobile phone and sent a message to Kevin, "Kevin, I


    didn''t discuss with you before I came back with Momo. I''m sorry! However, don''t worry, I won''t bring


    Momo back again in the future."


    After reading these words several times, Karen felt that there should be no problem and clicked


    send. However, the sent message was like a stone thrown into the sea, and Kevin did not pay


    attention to it at all.


    Karen made another bowl of fried meat noodles for him and sent it over to him. She wanted to have


    a good talk with him, but he did not even look up at her.


    She swallowed all the words she wanted to say, smiled awkwardly, and left.


    Although there was no basis of love for their marriage, she had agreed to marry him because she


    wanted to live a better life. She didn''t want to end this marriage just because of Momo.


    After a whole night of bad sleep, Karen got up early the next morning. She nned to send Momo


    back to Faye''s ce early in the morning, and then she would go look after Momo after work.


    When she came to the kitchen with Momo in her arms, Kevin was already sitting there. He looked


    up at her and ask her to sit down.

    Karen sat across from him. After a while, he said in a deep voice, "Karen, do you like the money?"


    Karen did not understand why he suddenly asked this. She blinked her eyes and nodded honestly.


    "Of course, I like money."


    Kevin took out a tinum credit card and handed it to her. "This card has no limit. You can use it."


    Suddenly realizing something, she hugged Momo tighter and said, "Don''t even think about it. No


    matter how much money you have, I won''t sell Momo."
