Chapter 1492
"He''s your brother!" After saying this to Mia, Karen looked at Karen Joy and continued, "And, he''s
your father! How could you two not care for him?!"
Mia and Karen Joy once again said in unison, "It''s not that we don''t care about him. But we all know
that he''s only waiting for you."
Karen was dumbfounded by their statement.
They were right.
Being married for so many years, some friction in life was inevitable but usually were just minor
issues. Things would be fine as long as both parties each took a step back. Karen understood this
well and she could never really be angry with Kevin.
After making Kevin a cup of tea, she headed up to the study. Upon her arrival, Kevin ced the
book in his hand down and looked up at her. He said in a deep voice, "How many times have I told
you not to worry about the family? Why don''t you listen to me?"
It turned out that Kevin was not really angry with Karen. He was only worried that she would be
exhausted after seeing her relentlessly caring for everyone.
Karen ced the teacup that was within Kevin''s reach and helped tidy up his desk a little. She said,
"It''s been years since Mom passed. Dad looks strong and healthy, but we all know that his health is
not getting any better."
She sighed and gently continued, "That makes you the head of this family now. As your wife, I have
to help lift the burden on your shoulders. Otherwise, you might get a mistress to take care of these
for me."
Kevin''s face darkened, and he growled, "Karen!"
She smiled and said, "Why the strong reaction? I''m just joking. However, judging from your reaction,
I do wonder if you''re feeling guilty about what I said."
Kevin imparted, "You shouldn''t joke about this."
"Okay, I won''t joke about it. I know you''re worried about me. However, I don''t feel burdened by the
need to care for the family. I love this family and everyone in it. I like taking care of everyone. I enjoy
it very much when everyonees home during the weekend," said Karen.
Karen reached for Kevin''s hand and held it to her face, stroking herself with it as she said, "They''re
our family, our rtives. So, I love you and I love all of them. You understand where I''ming
from, yes?"
Karen''s words made Kevin''s heart flutter. Kevin grabbed her hand, held it gently in his palm and
said, "Karen, you''re such a fool."
She smiled at him, "Because of you, I''m sheltered from storms and I''m able to live in this warm and
loving world that you''ve built for me. So, what does it matter if I''m a fool?"
Kevin caressed her head and said, "You deserve to have all the most beautiful things in the world."
"Kevin, you are the greatest thing that''s ever happened to me. Having you is equal to having the
whole world," Karen smiled at him gently. "Let''s go, everyone is waiting for us downstairs."
Kevin nodded, gazing at her with tender eyes.
She said that he was the greatest thing that had ever happened to her. He felt exactly the same. He
was grateful to have her in his life, and for her willingness to spend so many years with him. He was
thankful for her for blessing him with so much warmth.
asionally, the two of them would quarrel because of some small matters, but they quarreled
differently from others. Most of the time, they cared about each other too much and wanted to
protect each other under their
wings so that the other person would not suffer even the slightest.
In the dining room.
The entire family was gathered together, with the exception of Levi who was in the army.
As usual, on the day of the gathering, Grandpa Kyle would sit first, followed by everyone else
ording to their seniority in the family. Julien was supposed to be the secondst person to take a
seat before Larry. However, Larry did not follow the rules because he was just a child, so naturally,
Julien was thest person to take a seat.
After everyone was seated, Grandpa Kyle looked around and his eyes found Neil. He said, "Neil, is
Levi still in the army?"

Neil said, "Yes, he''s actually doing fine. He''s not even willing to leave."
Hearing Levi being mentioned, Mia was full of dissatisfaction. She muttered, "It seems that his
punishment was not harsh enough. I have to think of a way to deal with him and let him know not to
offend me in the future."
Grandpa Kyle frowned and said, "Mia, Levi is already an adult. Why can''t you be mature about this?
You can''t just ignore everything and do whatever you want. I''ve told you many times not to act this
way."
Mia retorted, "Well, Dad, Neil is willing to spoil me, so I can afford to fool around. What''s wrong with
that?"
Kevin let out a light cough, "Ahem!"
Mia knew that Kevin was warning her with that cough. She kept her head down and obediently shut
her mouth. In this house, she was not afraid of anyone but Kevin. Kevin was her only bane. No
matter how old Levi was, this was a fact that could never change.
After asking about the Brown Family, Grandpa Kyle looked at Karen Joy''s family - the family that
saved him a lot of trouble. He said with a smile, "Lionel, how''s yourpany doing recently?"
Lionel''s gaze had always been on Karen Joy until Grandpa Kyle called him. Only then did he look
away from her and answered, "Grandpa, thepany has been doing well. We''re getting ready to
be listed, so we''ve been busy."
At the time, Lionel abandoned all he had and came to Chatterton Town to be with Karen Joy. For
her sake, he had left his status and wealth behind. And it was because of her, that he had decided
to establish a business empire that solely belonged to them.
Although hispany was not as big as Rovio, it was still impressive. Over the years, it steadily
grew and expanded. The future looked bright.
Grandpa Kyle said in satisfaction, "You''ve done well, Lionel! I think you''d do well. Keep up the good
work."
Lionel said, "In fact, Karen Joy has done a lot for thepany. Without her, thepany wouldn''t
be able to grow as quickly."
Although Grandpa Kyle had just praised him, he did not forget to share thepliment with his
wife. He wanted everyone to know that Karen Joy was not only a thoughtful wife, but a capable one
at that.
