Chapter 243


    After sending Karen home that night, Kevin drove around and found a perfect spot to keep an eye


    on her room.


    At this time, the lights in the room had already been turned on. There was a slim figure shing in


    the warm yellow lights, which was veryforting.


    Kevin stood there, watching her going back and forth quietly. Her petite figure cast a mottled


    shadow on the window. He hoped that he could watch her for the whole night... But not long after,


    she drew the curtains and turned off the lights.


    When the light went out, Kevin Kyle''s heart suddenly became empty. Only a few minutes, he had


    already missed her. He was also worried whether she would have a nightmare or not... After


    thinking for a while, Kevin couldn''t help but take out his mobile phone and dialed her number.


    Almost immediately, she picked up the phone.


    "Hello?" Her voice came from the darkness, soft and sweet.


    "You haven''t slept yet?"


    "No." She paused. "What about you? What are you doing?"


    Kevin Kyle smiled and answered honestly, "Thinking of you."


    He was telling the truth, he was not lying at all.


    But Karen Daly, on the other end of the phone, blushed and didn''t know how to answer. This man


    was really frighteningly frank. How could she reject him?


    "Karen," As she did not respond, Kevin Kyle said her name again.


    "Yes?" Karen responded.


    She was there - and Kevin Kyle felt at ease. He gazed at Karen Daly''s room softly. He chuckled and


    said, "Can you do me a favor?"


    "Well? What do you need my help with?" Karen Daly''s soft voice passed from the phone receiver to


    his ear. He could tell that she was in a good mood today.


    Kevin Kyle added, "I''ve beencking sleep recently. Can you talk to me like this? Stay on the line.


    Don''t hang up."


    Perhaps, if he apanied her in this way, she would not have a nightmare anymore.


    All he needed to do was to endure the night. When the sun rose, he would find a way to bring Karen


    Daly home.


    However, Karen Daly did not answer. There was another silence on the other end of the phone.


    The night was quiet, and the silence became particrly deafening.


    Kevin Kyle suddenly felt a little worried about his abrupt request. He was about to say something to


    break the silence when he heard a chuckle from the other end of the phone.


    It was gentle, with a little helplessness and loveliness.


    "Mr. Kyle," Karen Daly called him, "Did youfort Mrs.Kyle like this in the past?"


    Now it was Kevin Kyle''s turn to be silent. How should he answer?


    "Is that so?"

    Would Karen be jealous of herself?


    "No?"


    "Would it upset her if I tell her the truth?" Kevin Kyle pondered.


    In the past, Karen used to say that she had low EQ and didn''t know how to say pleasing words.


    Kevin didn''t take it to heart, but now he agreed with her very much.


    Just as Kevin was thinking about how to give Karen a perfect answer, another chuckle came from


    the other end of the phone.


    As if she understood Kevin Kyle''s hesitation at this time, she said in a simple and sweet way, "Well,


    I am joking."


    Kevin Kyle breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then are you willing to do that?"


    "Probably," Karen Daly said.


    "Probably?" Kevin Kyle did not understand.


    Karen Daly thought for a moment and said, "I''ll fall asleepter. Maybe I''ll hang up by ident."


    "It''s okay," Kevin Kyle smiled gently and said, "Anyway, I''ll be here, and I won''t hang up."


    "Really?"


    "Yes. Trust me."


    Believe me—I won''t let you suffer anymore. Kevin vowed in his heart.


    On the other end, Karen did not answer immediately. After a long time, she said softly, "Okay."


    Kevin''s smiled gently, filled with affection. "Go to sleep then," he said.


    "Yes."


    "You too," Karen replied.


    "Good night."


    "Good night."


    The phone was still connected, but there was no longer a soft voice.


    It was quiet all around. After a while, all he could hear was her gentle breathing. Presumably, she


    had fallen asleep.


    Kevin leaned against the car, lit up a cigarette, took a puff, and looked up at her window. He felt


    extremely calm in his heart.


    ...


    Kevin had disappeared for twenty-four hours, and no one could get in touch with him. Everyone


    around him was worried about him.


    There was a lot of work to be done. Nick ck and Amelia Gray had been bothered by different


    questions from his subordinates.


    In the past, no matter where Kevin Kyle went, he would inform them because he would need them


    to make arrangements. This time, they had no idea what to do.


    When Kevin Kyle reappeared, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, rushing to report their work to him.


    However, Kevin Kyle waved his hand to stop them. He said to Nick ck, "Go and meet Samuel


    Daly immediately."


    He couldn''t tolerate that Karen Daly was not with him, and he couldn''t tolerate that he was not with


    her when she had a nightmare.


    "Boss, I''ll have someone look for him immediately," Nick ck was also a very smart person. If


    Kevin Kyle did not want to attend to his work, it must be something very important to do with Karen


    Daly. He added, "We have already gotten hold of the medication that Samuel Daly is giving to


    Madam. We have submitted it for the fastest possible test, and the results are out."


    Kevin Kyle said in a cold voice, "Go ahead."


    Nick ck took a look at Kevin Kyle and said cautiously, "There is a small amount of morphine in


    the medication. It can be used as an analgesic, but it is easy to make people addicted to it. Long-


    term consumption of morphine will cause a serious dependence on it, both physically and


    psychologically. Addicts may cause great harm to themselves."


    Kevin said, "Get to the point."


    Nick quickly handed over the report and said, "Based on Mrs. Kyle''s physical condition, she has


    been taking it for two or three years. I''m afraid it''s not easy to get her off it."


    After saying that, Nick took a careful nce at Kevin Kyle, he was worried that his master would


    vent his anger on him.


    Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, Nick did not see the change in Kevin''s expression. Even


    his eyes were calm as if this was not a big deal.


    However, when he took a closer look, he saw that Kevin''s hand was so tight that he was almost


    crushing the document in his hand.


    Nick ck knew that their Director Kevin was not as rxed as he thought.


    He was frightened by his fury. The more he looked at him, the more he seemed to be fine. But Nick


    ck knew that Kevin Kyle''s blood was boiling.


    After a long time, Kevin Kyle calmed down the turbulent undercurrents in his heart and said, "Get in


    touch with an expert in this field right away. I want a professional. And - get me, Samuel Daly."


    He would not go to see Samuel Daly, instead, he would ask Samuel Daly toe over.


    He couldn''t kill Samuel Daly, but he had other ways to make the beast live a life worse than death.


    No matter what kind of means he used this time, he would keep Karen Daly by his side. He would


    never allow Samuel Daly''s vicious ws to touch Karen Daly again.
