Chapter 26


    The man smiled and said very firmly, "I know that you are reluctant to hurt me. I know it all the time.


    You love me so much, how can you hurt me?"


    Karen did not want to hurt anyone, but for reasons unlike what the man had said. She just wanted


    to leave and never see his face again.


    "Karen..."


    When he reached out his hand towards her again, she didn''t hesitate to raise the ashtray in her


    hand and smashed it on his head.


    The man''s forehead was cut open, and blood flowed down along his forehead. But he still looked at


    her as if he didn''t feel pain. He smiled and said, "Karen, I know you are still angry with me, so I let


    you hit me. But when your anger is relieved,e back with me."


    The wound on his forehead was very deep, as more and more blood flowed, it dripped onto his


    face, body, and hands, but he just ignored it, he seemed to only care about Karen now.


    Karen was scared. She shouted, “Charlie Gook, you madman, what on earth do you want to do?"


    Charlie suddenlyughed and said, "Karen, I like you calling my name like this. That’s the Karen I


    like."


    He liked her calling his full name, so overbearing and proudly as if the man with this name was her


    property.


    "Shut up! I don''t want to talk to you for the rest of my life." Karen clenched her fists and felt no pain


    even when her nails pierced into her palms.


    "Karen, you can''t escape. As long as I don''t let go of you, you will never be able to escape." Charlie


    said with a smile, which was full of pain and excitement.


    Karen bit her lip tightly, her body trembling slightly. "Don''t even think about it..."


    Charlie smiled confidently and said softly, "What is it that I dare not think of? Hmm?"


    Karen clenched her fists more tightly because she believed that he could do what he wanted easily.


    "Karen, the person I love is you. It has always been you and that has never changed." He said with


    a smile. After all, he was injured in the head and it was quite serious – he swayed on the spot and


    fell to the floor.


    Karen trembled with fear. "Charlie..."


    Perhaps the noise from the room was too loud. Someone finally opened the door and came in.


    Seeing Charlie injured and lying on the ground, the group of people panicked.


    Karen heard someone shouting, "Charlie is injured. Send him to the hospital."


    She also heard that someone was calling the police. She could only see a lot of blood and a flurry of


    people rushing in and out...


    When she came to her senses, she didn''t know how long it had been before she had been taken to


    the police station. She was locked up in a small cold room.


    The whispers of the police outside reached her ears. "Is this the person who hurt Charlie? But for


    some reason, Charlie is not willing to prosecute her. Not only did he not prosecute her, but he also


    asked for us to arrange a private session with her. But ording to him, she has to be locked up for


    two days to teach her a lesson."


    The guard''s voice continued, but Karen did not pay attention to it. She now knew that Charlie was


    fine, so she was relieved.


    Karen understood Charlie''s intentions for asking them to imprison her for a few days.


    The first was to let her know that she was just an insignificant employee who worked for a


    technologypany. She had hurt him, but he didn''t me her for her crime. He just imprisoned


    her for two days, which seemed like a great gift he was bestowing upon her.


    Secondly, he wanted her to know that as long as Charlie was unwilling to let go of her, no matter in


    New York or in Chatterton Town, she could never escape from him.


    Thinking of Charlie''s arrogant words, Karen felt bitter in her heart. It was not that she could not


    escape from Charlie''s grasp, but that the Daly family was reluctant to leave her be as well.


    The Daly family used to be a noble family and was respected by others. When it came to Karen''s


    father''s generation, the Daly family fame had already declined.


    Her father did not want the Daly family reputation to continue this way. He tried his best to get in


    touch with the rich and famous, butter he made friends with the Gook family.


    Therefore, instantly, the Daly family, which had long since lost its fame in New York, once again


    entered the high society of New York after befriending the Gook family.


    Daly''s father had also sold the old house left behind by the Daly family ancestors, as well as some


    precious paintings and calligraphy, and used the money to buy a vi near the Gook family vi.


    Their vi was much smaller than the Gook''s, but at least they were able to squeeze into the rich


    residential area, which something happened that made Karen''s father very happy.


    Gradually, the Daly family seemed to have be parasites living off the Gook Family for a long


    time. Naturally, the young master of the Gook family was the target of attention and affection.


    As a result, after that fateful incident, her parents did not have any objection. Whatever the Gook


    family said wasw, and the Gook Family would do whatever they wanted.


    Since the Gook Family no longer viewed Karen as someone important, she had also be a


    useless abandoned daughter by the Daly family.


    Now, after three years, Charlie still had the nerve toe to her and said that he wanted to take her


    back. Just thinking about it made her feel incredulous.


    It was funny how useless the Daly family was and funny how useless she was. How could she let


    someone she should forget to trigger her this way?


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    She bent her legs, held them in her arms, and buried her head on her knees as if her heart would


    not feel ufortable or cold by doing this.


    "Chief Campbell, why are you here in person?"


    The guard''s respectful and panicked voice reached Karen''s ears, but she was not in the mood to


    care about it. She still held on to her legs, locking herself in her own space.


    Only if she did not care about the outside world or those who hurt her, would she not be hurt again.


    Pow!


    Two loud ps broke the silence in the room, and then came the roar of a middle-aged man, "How


    dare you! You''ve actually imprisoned the wrong people!"


    The guard said in panic and grievance, "Chief Campbell, it''s not us. It''s Charlie of the Gook family,


    the Gook family..."


    Before the man could finish his words, the middle-aged man roared, "How dare you still speak?


    Open the door and let Miss Daly out."


    Then, he heard the sound of running, the unlocking of the door, and then heard the respectful voice


    of the middle-aged man say, "Director Kevin, my people are ipetent. Please forgive me."


    Hearing the words "Director Kevin", Karen''s body trembled slightly. She slowly looked up and saw


    Kevin standing in front of the middle-aged man.


    He was still wearing his custom-made silver-grey suit with a polite smile on his face. However,


    under the golden-rim spectacles, there was a dark light in his eyes that could not be interpreted,


    which made people feel a chill in their bones.


    Kevin simply nodded and walked toward Karen without saying anything to the middle-aged man


    who bowed to him repeatedly. The man was Chief Campbell.


    Kevin strode over to Karen''s side, rubbed her head, and called her name softly, "Karen..."


    Kevin''s voice was softer than ever before, which made Karen feel that the horrible things she had


    endured earlier had never appeared.
