Chapter 516


    "Karen..." Henry suddenly called out to her.


    Karen was stunned and she looked at him, then Henry said in his pleasant voice, "Do you have any


    suggestions or proposals for the case we have just discussed?"


    Karen was shocked again.


    "Damn it," she thought. She was distracted and hadpletely lost focus on the proposals Henry


    and the team were discussing.


    "If you have no objection, we''ll settle with this for now." Henry pped his hands and then added,


    "Alright, let''s get back to work. If there are any problems moving forward, feel free to bring them up


    at any time."


    Karen was in a daze so Henry spoke just in time to help Karen avoid the awkwardness. However,


    she wasn''t sure if he was actually helping her out sincerely .


    No matter what his intentions were, Karen had never considered thanking him since she held quite


    a grudge against him.


    "Henry, can Ie to you anytime if there''s something I don''t understand in future?" A female


    colleague asked him adoringly. Whatever she wanted to express was shown in her eyes.


    Henry had good looks, an exceptional body, and a pair of attractive eyes. Outstanding capabilities


    aside, the reason why he was epted by the colleagues so quickly had to do with his appearance.


    In the age of aesthetics- over- everything, regardless of man or woman, having good looks would


    always give one extra advantage.


    Henry nodded and put up his signature smile. "Of course, anyone who has any questions cane


    to me for discussion."


    Henry''s words were very appropriate. He not only indirectly refused the advances of the female


    colleague, but sessfully maintained his demeanor as a chief designer.


    The female colleague replied with a "yes" and left the meeting room with everyone else. While she


    was leaving, she turned and looked at him bitterly.


    Karen also packed up her paperwork to leave with the team. However, as soon as she got up,


    Henry handed another document to her and said, "Karen, take a look at this."


    Karen had to stop and ept the document he handed over. She opened the document and


    nced at it carefully.


    When she saw the design draft, Karen looked up and stared at Henry. She was utterly shocked!


    The design draft that Henry handed to her was the wedding dress that she had designed for herself.


    How did he get a hold of her sketches?


    Did he know Ivan too?


    It wasn''t entirely impossible. Henry did return from Mn after all.


    They were in the same city and in the same industry. The chance for him to know Ivan was certainly


    there.


    As a renowned designer, Ivan emphasized a lot on original creations way more than anyone else. It


    was very unlikely for him to pass on her work to someone else.


    Looking at Karen''s surprised and confused look, Henry smiled gently and said, "Karen, I want to


    hear your opinion."


    Karen calmed herself down and said, "Did you really draw this draft?"


    Henry shrugged, "If it wasn''t me, then who else?"


    "You drew this draft?" Karen couldn''t believe it. She instinctively tightened her grip on the drawing


    and pursed her lips tightly.


    "What do you want to say?" Henry approached Karen and then reached out to sweep the hair off


    Karen''s forehead.


    Karen was startled, she stepped back at once, distancing herself from him. She red at him


    angrily and asked, "What do you want to do?"


    Henryughed and said, "I am a Virgo and I can''t tolerate anything messy. Your hair was really


    messy, so instinctively I helped you tidy it."


    "Henry, I did not know you as a friend before, and I don''t intend to know you in future. If it''s


    necessary for us to have any kind of rtionship, then we will only remain as colleagues. I am


    married and my child is also a toddler now. I care about my husband very much, and I love my child


    a lot too. I don''t wish to have anyone disturbing our lives."


    Karen was eager to draw a clear line with this person, so for someone who had never liked to


    discuss personal affairs publicly, she disclosed everything about herself in one shot.


    Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    "You''re married. You have a child..." Henry squinted his attractive eyes. He shrugged and then said,


    "Does it have anything to do with me?"


    She was married and had a child... so what? It had nothing to do with him at all, and it would


    certainly not affect his determination to achieve what he set his eyes on.


    However, as the saying goes, haste makes waste. He had to carry out his n slowly, one step at a


    time.


    What did it have to do with him?


    This statement was ambiguous, Karen couldn''t quite figure out his intention.


    So was he saying that her private life had nothing to do with him? And they were just colleagues


    and business partners?


    Or did he mean that it didn''t matter if she was married. He would do whatever he pleased?


    Karen was not in the mood to argue with him. She turned around and made a move. However,


    Henry stepped forward and blocked her way. He then said, "I was just asking you to give me some


    advice. I don''t want to know your private life."


    Karen blushed immediately. Embarrassed and helpless, she said again, "Can you tell me clearly


    where did you get this design draft from?"


    "Hmm?" Henry put on a confused look.


    "This design draft is a wedding dress manuscript that I have designed for myself. How can it be with


    you?" Henry had


    pretended to be ignorant, so Karen decided to stop beating around the bush.


    "Karen, is there a mistake? This is the manuscript I have designed, how can it be yours?" Henry


    looked extremely surprised, but his bright crystal eyes reflected his teasing smile.


    Karen had only shown the draft to Kevin Kyle and the designer Ivan. They would certainly not give


    away her draft.


    But how could Henry possibly have her design draft?


    Was it really just a coincidence?


    Both of their design concept and ideas were almost identical, so they had both designed something


    that was incredibly simr.


    Karen refused to believe that there could be a coincidence as such in the world. Perhaps she did


    know him in the past, but she had forgotten about him?


    There was quite a long period of time when she lost her memorypletely. She couldn''t recognize


    Kevin even when he was by her side.


    During that period of time, she had forgotten many whom she had very close rtionships with.


    She had lost a big part of her memory, but she had gradually pieced them back. She had recalled


    everything from the past. Were there missing parts that she hadn''t remembered?


    Karen tried really hard to recall, but she still couldn''t remember any man called Henry.


    Was it possible that when she recalled her past memories, she had inadvertently left out the part


    when she was living in Mn?


    If she had really forgotten about that part of the memories, then she shouldn''t have remembered


    living with Samuel Daly for three years, and that she had won the new designer award.


    "Karen..."


    Karen, who was still deep in thoughts, suddenly heard a pleasant voice. As she looked up, she was


    met with Henry''s approaching face.


    He held her head and bowed his head to kiss her, but this time, Karen was quick to react.


    She reached out her hand in time to cover her mouth and then she thundered, "Henry, do this again


    and I won''t be easy on you."
