Chapter 726


    When she mentioned her Brother Lionel, the smile on her face was always so bright. Her beautiful


    smile could put the stars to shame.


    That was her!


    Her name was Karen Joy Kyle!


    However, he still saw her as his Little Karen.


    "What''s so good about Brother Lionel? How could you like him so much?" He wanted to understand


    her perception of him.


    Since she doesn''t know that he was her brother Lionel, the answer she would give must be her


    most honest thoughts.


    He cared about her honest thoughts a lot.


    "My Brother Lionel is..." Karen Joy wanted to continue with "perfect". However, she knew that her


    Brother Lionel was really cunning.


    If he wanted to hear her praises of him, then he needed to be direct and honest. She would dly


    praise him then. Instead, he was still clueless over her revtion, so he was using this opportunity


    to lure some information.


    Cheeky bastard!


    If she praised Brother Lionel too much, what


    if he became too proud of himself someday and decided not to treat her well? What would she do


    then?


    "My Brother Lionel..." As she spoke, she deliberately let out a long sigh and said sadly, "My Brother


    Lionel is great in a lot of ways, but I always feel that he doesn''t like me enough."


    "How could that be?" He blurted out. How could this little girl have such an idea?


    He liked her so much that it was far beyond what he expected. How could she say that Brother


    Lionel did not like her enough?


    "You don''t even know Brother Lionel, how do you know that he does?" Karen Joy was testing his


    exnation to this question, but at the same time, she put on a very concerning look on her face.


    "Maybe he likes other girls, but it''s hard to say."


    "How could he like other girls..." He answered in a hurry. Later, he realized that his responses were


    a little inappropriate.


    "Why couldn''t he? Who do you think you are? Do you think you know him better than I do?" Karen


    Joy felt a little guilty for messing with his feelings, but she was really annoyed that he manipted


    her first.


    "I..." Brother Lionel desperately wanted to spill the truth and reveal his longing for her too.


    However, when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he couldn''t say it. It was not the right time


    yet. Karen Joy needed to wait a little more.


    "You can''t answer it, can you?" Karen Joy looked into the distance and her tone sounded more


    mellow, "It doesn''t matter if he liked me or not, I will still like him."


    Nathaniel felt bad. He reached out and rubbed her head. "Actually, I do know. Think about it. If you


    could like Brother Lionel so much, there must be something that you are attracted to. And maybe


    that thing is his graciousness towards you."


    "Mr. President, have you ever fallen in love with someone?" She looked back at him. "You will put


    that person in your heart, and you will always be thinking about that person, even if you''ve just met


    him or her. Once that person leaves, you will miss that person tremendously."


    "I have." He responded confidently, "The person I like is very outstanding, and she''s much more


    excellent than I imagined."


    "Wow... Mr. President, are you serious?" Was Brother Lionel praising her? Was heplimenting


    her?


    She was so excited and nervous that her heart almost jumped out of her chest.


    "Of course it''s true." As he spoke, he naturally reached out his hand and gently pushed her hair


    back, "She had always been cared for as she grew up, but many things that have happened


    recently made me see her in a new light. Everything she has done went far beyond my impression


    and expectation of her."


    "Then do you like this version of her?" If Brother Lionel did not like that she worked so hard, and


    only wanted her to hide behind him like a little woman, what should she do then?


    "Of course I do!" He looked at her, and he looked as smitten as if he had been in love with her for


    thousands of years.


    Of course, he liked her!


    Karen Joy looked at him with a smile.

    Her bright smile and innocent-looking eyes melted Nathaniel''s heart immediately. She looked so


    dazzling that she could illuminate the gloomy night sky.


    Karen Joy also looked back at him and thought simrly. They looked at each other as if they were


    almost intoxicated in each other''s eyes.


    Brother Lionel said that he liked this version of her!


    Karen Joy was so excited that she almost cheered out loud. She couldn''t wait to hold Brother


    Lionel''s hand and tell everyone that this person was her Brother Lionel, and this person was the


    person she liked.


    Bang-


    Suddenly, a loud noise broke the silence. Nathaniel and Karen Joy turned to look in the direction of


    the sound at the same time, and the people who were resting in the tent rushed out.


    However, since it was already dark, they could only hear the loud sound, but they could not see


    what was going on. Nathaniel stepped forward immediately and said, "Secretary Hart, I need some


    people with me to check things out."


    When he ordered Secretary Hart, he had already left Karen Joy behind and walked quickly ahead.


    He did not care about her. At this critical moment, people''s safety was still his priority in his heart.


    "Lio... Mr. President, I''ll go with you." It was so dark, and the ce was deeply affected by the


    earthquake. They might slip and fall. Karen Joy was not at ease if she did not stay with Brother


    Lionel.


    "No way!" Nathaniel refused harshly without turning his head.


    "I want to go!" She gritted her teeth and followed behind him. After she caught up with him, she


    didn''t care about how others looked at their rtionship. She reached out and hugged his arm. "You


    said that I''m not allowed to leave your sight. I followed your words. Why can''t I follow that now?"


    "Things are different now. You''d better stay in a safe ce and not leave." Nathaniel forcibly pulled


    her hand away.


    Although he had personally told her not to leave his sight today, the current situation was different.


    He did not want to put her life in danger.


    "What is different? In my opinion, they are the same." Usually, she was not so capricious and


    disobedient, and she didn''t want to cause trouble for Brother Lionel. But at this moment, she was


    afraid, so she didn''t think as rationally as she usually did.


    "Karen Joy, this is an earthquake- stricken area, not an amusement park. This is not where you can


    just fool around." He understood her temper too well. If she didn''t give up willingly, she would


    definitely find a way to follow him when he left.


    "You''re also saying that I''m here to fool around?" When other people say that she was here to fool


    around, she was not so affected, because they meant nothing to her. She would not care about


    what other people had said or done.


    But he was different. He was her Brother Lionel, and he was her emotional pir. He was the reason


    that she kept working hard.


    Others didn''t know this, but didn''t he know how hard she tried?


    That night, when she helped move the supplies, she even fell down several times.


    Once, when she fell into a mud pit, she didn''t evenin that it was dirty. She got up with mud


    all over her body and continued to help carry the supplies.


    Because it was dark and she could not see, most of the time, she was just walking forward


    recklessly. She fell on the road before and her knees even bled. However, as she thought that she


    could help Brother Lionel, she gritted her teeth and endured the hardship.
