《Uncle's Love: My Sweet Little Wife》 Chapter 1 You Are Set up Chapter 1 You Are Set up "Mom, this jade pendant was left to that bitch Kara by Veronica. She is not gonna find out that we took it, is she?" It was her cousin Kathleen Quain''s worried voice. "This jade pendant is too precious, and that invalid doesn''t deserve it. It''s been hidden in the bedroom, and I''m sure she doesn''t remember it at all. Kathleen, Madam Hemming has made you Mr. James'' fianc¨¦e. Sooner orter, you''re gonna be Mrs. Hemming. Only you are worthy of this jade pendant." It was her aunt Sophia''s voice. She then continued, "Kara is a retard. She can''t take care of herself after being mistreated by my servants. The only reason I pretended to be nice to her was because of the Quain Group." "If she doesn''t listen to us, I''ll have her killed. Who would care about that jade pendant by then?" Kara was stunned, her entire body trembling with anger. Aunty Sophia wanted to find someone to kill her? Sophia had always been nice to her. Why would she want her dead? Kara didn''t believe it, and then she heard Sophia''s words. "Today is your father''s 50th birthday. It''s a great chance to inform every one of NK City that he is in charge of the Quain Group. Also, we can take this opportunity to invite Mr. James over. Bring out your best look and try your best to fascinate him. Then you''re gonna be Mrs. Hemming!" "Yes, Mom, you''re right. I''ll go find Mr. James now." Imagining herself as the great Mrs. Hemming, Kathleen ran downstairs excitedly. Kara tightened her grip on the door handle, veins popping up on the back of her fair hand. She wanted to ask Sophia and Kathleen what she had done wrong to them. Why on earth did they do this to her? Feeling unwell the night before, she hade home from school and slept in her mother''s old bedroom. Otherwise she would have still been in the dark about their evil intentions. Once Sophia also left the room, Kara came out of the bathroom to check her mother''s casket. Sure enough, it was empty. She hurried out of the room and went downstairs. Seeing her grandma Linda Quain leaning on a walking stick at the corner of the staircase, Kara seemed to catch a glimmer of hope. "Grandma, Aunty Sophia..." Linda''s expression changed when she saw Kara''s pale face. "Why are you here? Aren''t you in school? Today is your uncle''s 50th birthday party. Hurry up and leave this ce. Don''t bring your bad luck to him." Linda said disdainfully with a grim face. To Kara, she looked like a monster that wanted to devour her alive. Today was Adam''s big day. Didn''t Sophia promised that this invalid wouldn''t show up? Kara widened her eyes in astonishment. Ripples of cold undted over her skin, as if she had fallen into an ice cave. She couldn''t even make a move now. She had been in poor health since she was young, and Grandma had never liked her. Ever since her mother''s death, Grandma found her loathsome even when looking at her. She now realized how stupid she was to see Grandma as her lifesaver and to seek help from her! She clenched her fists and turned to leave. Suddenly, a great pain came from her back. Her knees gave away and she instantly knelt on the ground. Enduring the pain, she looked back and then widened her eyes in shock. Her grandma was beating her with a cane! "You wicked girl! Whoever looks at your face wille to a bad end! That''s the very reason why your parents died. Are you also trying to get your uncle killed now?" Although Linda was leaning on her walking stick, she had great strength. She pulled Kara upstairs, while thetter cried and begged for mercy when being pinched hard by her grandma. Kara''s miserable scream attracted everyone''s attention. Seeing the olddy drag a girl upstairs, they all came over with doubts, wanting to find out what had happened. Hearing themotion, Sophia hurried over. Seeing Kara kneeling on the ground, she put on a strange look. Her mother-inw''s behavior was so unreasonable. If Linda wanted to teach Kara a lesson, she could call a security guard to lock her up. As long as Kara wasn''t beaten to death, Sophia would turn a blind eye. Linda''s punishment of the invalid on such an important asion would only embarrass her. Looking at Kara, who was blushing with tears, Sophia didn''t have any pity on her. She justforted her softly, "Kara, be a good girl and don''t anger your grandma. After the banquet is over, you can utter your grievances to me." N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content. Hearing her words, Kara widened her eyes in shock. There was a hint of sorrow and self-mockery in her watery eyes. She was quite familiar with such a scene. Whenever Linda found her annoying, she would scold her and even hit her with a cane. Only when she was badly injured did Sophiae forward to stop Linda and take her to the hospital. Sophia would even console her, saying that Linda lost control of her emotions because she felt so anguished losing her young son. Given that Linda was an elder, Sophia advised Kara not to argue with her grandma. Sophia also swore that she would never let anyone bully her in the future. Believing that Sophia was the only person she could rely on, Kara would not object to how Sophia arranged her life. She now realized how na?ve and stupid she used to be! Chapter 2 Handsome, Please Help Me! Chapter 2 Handsome, Please Help Me! Resentment filled her heart, and Kara used all her strength to break free from Linda''s grip. Then she took a step forward, pushed Sophia away and ran out of the house. Linda was so angry that she immediately ordered the security guards to catch Kara. If they failed, they would be dismissed. The security guards didn''t want to lose their job because of a girl, so they took out the electric batons and chased after Kara. Kara was fully aware of her vulnerability. Exposing the evil deeds of Sophia and Lily was equal to braving the storm in a skiff made of paper. Even if they beat her to death, no one woulde to collect her body. As long as she was still alive, maybe she could find a way out of this one day. Thinking of this, she rushed forward desperately with weak unsteady steps. Hearing the footsteps of the security guards behind her, she gritted her teeth and quickened her pace. Not long after, she saw a pure ck luxurious Maybach in front of her. The moment the car door was opened, she rushed in without a second thought. The man standing outside the car was tall and straight. His ck suit gave him an aura of authority. Seeing a girl get into the car without his consent, he put on a cold look, with his thin lips tightly pursed. The driver who opened the car door was stunned when seeing Karae to the back seat nimbly like a kitten. Stealing a look at Mr. James, the driver was instantly intimidated by his cold and fierce air.Content held by N?velDrama.Org. The driver was surprised at this girl''s boldness. Mr. James was forced toe here by his granny Zoey, which upset him a lot. This girl indeed irritated him at the wrong moment. ''Isn''t she afraid of being punished? I must drive her out of the car now!'' the driver thought. "Mr. James, I''ll throw her out!" The man called Mr. James had strikingly handsome features that would take anyone''s breath away. However, his handsome face was now as ck as thunder. Pursing his thin lips, he stared coldly at the girl curling up in the back seat. "Help! Someone wants to kill me." Hearing that the driver was about to throw her out of the car, Kara was flustered. She looked up and saw Mr. James'' fierce brown eyes, which scared her to freeze on the spot. Fortunately, she regained her senses upon hearing the footsteps of the security guards who were chasing after her. She did not want to die! "Handsome, please help me! I promise to repay your kindness to me one day!" She knelt on the seat to beg him, putting her small palms tightly together. Hearing no response from Mr. James, the driver could feel that thetter had almost run out of patience. Gripped by fear, he stretched out a hand, intending to throw the girl out of the car. Feeling irritable, James wore a stern look. However, he did not stop the driver. He was never a kind person! However, when looking down at this girl''s frightened expression, he couldn''t help softening towards her. Her amber eyes were filled with sparkling tears, which made her look pure and innocent. Her palm- sized face was soft and white. At first nce, he thought her delicate features looked like that of Barbie dolls. What was more, his heart even ached when he heard her low and soft cry. Wearing a cold expression, he pushed the driver''s hand away and got in the car. "Drive!" Just a moment ago, Kara was staring at the driver''s hand in panic while holding onto the back seat tightly. Then she heard the man''s deep and charming voice. Although it sounded indifferent, she believed it must be the pleasant one she had ever heard. To Kara, the word "Drive" was like the gospel God had given her. Right at this moment, the security guards ran over. Kara was so scared that she hid behind the man and unconsciously grabbed a corner of his sleeve. "Did you see a girl in school uniform?" the security guards asked the driver. "No!" the driver replied. The security guards didn''t believe him at all. The girl disappeared so quickly, which meant she must be hiding somewhere now. They decided to look for her in the car! The car windows were shut, so the situation inside couldn''t be seen clearly. "How dare you? This is Mr. James'' car. Do you want to get yourself killed?" the driver scolded coldly. Mr. James! Word had it that Mr. James was a ruthless and cruel man with an aloof aura. Anyone who dared to offend him would be severely punished! The security guards turned pale, and they immediately stepped away to make way for the car. Kara took a sigh of relief after they got away from the Quain''s. She wanted to sit up straight, but she suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back. Letting out a low cry, she carefully looked up at the man beside her with a painful look. Just now, she was too flustered and panic-stricken that she failed to see his appearance clearly. Taking a closer look, she now found that this man was extremely handsome. He had an angr face with exquisite features, with his brown eyes carrying an air of coldness. Kara didn''t dare to look directly at him. The bridge of his nose was tall and straight. Putting his long, slender fingers near his lower lip, he seemed to be thinking of something. Crossing his legs, he sat in the seat in a custom-made ck suit, which highlighted his nobility and elegance. She felt that he looked familiar, but she couldn''t remember where she had seen him before. "Handsome, thank you for saving my life. I''m Kara Quain. I''ll find a way to repay you." Kara said earnestly in a gentle tone. Since she was weak, her voice was so soft that it sounded like that of an injured kitten. James nced sideways at her. Her jade-like little face was morbidly pale, but her amber eyes were as bright as stars. His irritation somewhat dissipated. Focusing his deep eyes on her, he felt that she was a little familiar. "Are you David Quain''s daughter?" "You know my father?" Kara was surprised to hear this. Tilting her head, she stared at him doubtfully with her amber eyes which were bright as gemstones. "My name is James Hemming." James remembered the time when he had just taken control of his family''s business. Since he was so young, many people showed little confidence in him. Only David was willing to cooperate with him and lent a helping hand in business. After a few exchanges at work, they developed a deep friendship. Three years ago, David lied feebly on the hospital bed, begging him to take care of his daughter. When receiving the tragic news of David''s death, James was still abroad. After finishing his work, he hurried back to attend his funeral. However, he learned that David''s daughter was under the care of her uncle and grandmother. He also asked his subordinates to inquire about her life at the Quain''s. Being informed that she was treated well by the Quains, he didn''t pay too much attention to her after that. The girl''s pitiful appearance reminded him of the kitten he had once raised, and he softened a little bit. She still had injuries on her body, so she must have been forced into a desperate situation. Chapter 3 Anything? Chapter 3 Anything? When Kara heard his name, her amber eyes lit up and she became somewhat clear-headed. "Are you Uncle James?" She had seen her father''s business partner when she was a child! "Yes." The girl''s amber eyes were clear even under the dim light. The kitten raised by him also had a pair of amber eyes. Every time it longed for his touch, it would look up at him with sparkling eyes. He softened a lot upon thinking of this. When she leaned over, he didn''t push her away. "Uncle James, I am Kara. I''m hurt ... and I''m in so much pain...." Kara wanted to remain sober, but the injuries on her body hurt too much. She then had a ckout and fainted in his arms. When the driver saw the girl faint in Mr. James'' arms, his hands trembled in fear. Mr. James was a clean freak and he didn''t like women getting close to him. This girl''s clothes were rather dirty. What was worse, she kept moving when lying in Mr. James'' embrace. The driver was afraid that Mr. James would throw her out in great anger. "Mr. James, do I need to stop?" the driver asked nervously. Looking at this girl''s pitiful appearance, the driver couldn''t help feeling sorry for her. If she was thrown into a crowded ce, maybe a kind-hearted person would save her life. "Go to the hospital!" N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content. The driver stared at the rearview mirror in astonishment. Mr. James was now rubbing the girl''s messy hair with a loving look. The driver doubted if his eyesight had gone bad since he had been working overtime recently. Did he have an illusion just now? ... When Kara opened her eyes, she found that she was lying on a hospital bed. After looking around, she realized there was no one in this luxurious ward. Recalling that she was in Mr. James'' car when fainting, she thought it might be him who took her to the hospital. Did he leave after that? She let out a disappointed sigh, feeling thirsty. Just as she got up, a sharp pain came from her back. The pain was so unbearable that she burst into tears. Gritting her teeth, she slowed down her movements. Just as she got out of bed, the door to the ward was pushed open. She looked up and her eyes met Mr. James'' cold brown ones. Kara was pleasantly surprised. "Uncle James." Her soft cry was as weak as a kitten''s. James walked to the bedside. Knowing that her back was injured, he helped to adjust her position so that she could be morefortable. "What do you want?" he asked briefly. "I''m thirsty." Feeling embarrassed, she blushed while saying this. James looked down at the girl who was half-lying on the bed. Did she want to ask him to pour water for her? How could that be possible? James, who had never taken care of anyone before, sneered coldly. Just as he was about to turn around and call the nurse over, he saw her light-pink cracked lips. Frowning, he headed to the drinking fountain to pour water for her. Then he handed her the cup of water while standing by the bed expressionlessly. With a miserable look, the girl almost dropped the cup when holding it with trembling hands. "Sorry, Uncle James. My back hurts." Seeing that some water in the cup was spilled on him, Kara apologized in panic. James took a deep breath to calm himself down. Actually, he softened upon hearing her address him as Uncle James. He bent down and personally fed her water. Since it was the first time he did this, he was a little clumsy. He held the cup so low that she had to lower her head to drink water. In this way, James could easily see her beautiful white neck, on which there were a few ck fluffy hairs. Narrowing his eyes, he immediately looked away. She hadn''t fully grown, but some of her body parts were already quite attractive. When the doctor and driver opened the ward door, they saw that Mr. James was taking great care of the girl. To their surprise, he even fed her water with a tender expression. They couldn''t believe what they had seen. Mr. James, president of the SA Group, had never served anyone like this. With a shocked expression, they left instead of entering the ward, fearing that they might hallucinate. After Kara drank the water, her throat was no longer that sore. Then she said in a sweet voice, "Uncle James, thank you." She had seen this handsome man a few years before. The reason why she didn''t recognize him at first nce today was that he kept a stern face with an aloof air. But she had heard from her father that Uncle James was a good person and a trustworthypanion. Therefore, she trusted him too. It was as if she had fallen into the deep water and he was her only life-saving floating wood. James put down the cup and wanted to stand up, but the girl grabbed the corner of his clothes. "What''s up?" he asked in a cold tone. Kara was so scared that she let go of him. Stealing a nce at him, she saw him wearing a grim expression. Thinking that she was the one who had upset him, she bit her pink lips and didn''t dare to utter a single word. Seeing her timid appearance, James took a deep breath and said, "Your father and I are friends. Since you call me uncle, I''ll help you with anything, as long as I could." The girl stared at him with amber eyes, which were clear and translucent like sparkling gemstones. Seeing the tumbled hair on her forehead, James resisted the urge to rub her hair. With a frown, she asked timidly, "Anything?" "As long as it''s within my league." Kara clenched her fists tightly and thought the whole idea over. Then she mustered up the courage to make a request. "I ... I want to go to your ce." Chapter 4 Home Chapter 4 Home An hourter, Kara huddled inside the car. She timidly looked at the man sitting next to her, frowning. Since he was very tall, when he was sitting straight, he couldpletely block the sunlight, leaving Kara in his shadow. She recalled some gossip about him that she heard before. With his decisiveness, James inherited the SA Group in a ruthless way at the age of twenty. He not only reversed the precarious situation of the SA Group, but also developed it into a world-renownedpany in a few years. It was said that he was the youngest and most popr bachelor in NK City. For tens of thousands of women, he was the perfect man that they could only have in their dreams. They thought that he looked even more handsome than a movie star. However, it seemed that James didn''t like women. He was twenty-nine years old now, but no one had seen him show up with a woman. Instead, quite a few gentlemen and childes were close to him. As a result, people made some guesses about his sexual preference. ... Countless messages shed through Kara''s mind. She thought of the Quains and the attitudes of Uncle Adam and her grandma towards her. She was injured and didn''t want to go back to the Quain''s. The school was not a good ce for her to recover. Therefore, when James asked her what she wanted, she said without any hesitation that she wanted to go to his ce. Facing James'' meaningful gaze, she blushed and exined that she only wanted a ce to recover from her injuries. It didn''t matter whether it was his ce or not. James agreed. This time, she was so lucky that she could meet Uncle James. But what about next time? If her grandma attacked her again, who should she turn to for help? Therefore, she had to quickly find someone powerful enough to protect her. But why would a powerful person help her fight against the family of Uncle Adam for no reason? Looking out of the window, Kara fell into confusion. She thought about her future and felt bitter inside. It was drizzling outside the car window. When the night came along, people were passing by hurriedly in the street. James nced at the little girl sitting beside him. After she got into the car, her eyes had been fixed dead at him. He was going to ignore her at the beginning. Over the years, many people had been looking at him in this way, showing their obsession with him. Every time James noticed that, he would be annoyed. But the next second, when she turned away, James could see the confusion and sadness in her amber eyes. He found that he didn''t get angry at all. Kara was David''s precious daughter. Considering his rtionship with David, there was no doubt that James should help her when she was bullied. They arrived at the vi. When James got out of the car, he found that Kara looked intimidated with a frown. "There''s no need to worry." "Thank you, Uncle James." Feeling his concern for her, Kara stopped frowning and smiled at him. Then she followed him into the vi. She was already very grateful to Uncle James for offering her a ce to stay. She didn''t dare to ask for more. Now, she could only y it by ear. "Mr. James, wee back," Libby said. She was the chef of the vi. "How''s the dinner?" "It''s ready. I''ve also prepared the things that you requested." Libby looked up and saw the thin girl behind James. She raised her eyebrows in surprise. In these years, she had never seen Mr. James show up with a young woman by his side. But today, he suddenly brought a girl back to the vi. Could it be that he finally decided to have a girlfriend? Looking at the delicate girl, Libby was secretly makingments about her. ''This girl looks so young. Her face is as white and bright as jade. It must be soft and supple.'' ''Her jewel-bright eyes are particrly attractive and adorable.'' ''But she''s too skinny. Will she be okay? After all, Mr. James is very strong.'' ''I''ve never expected that a strong man like Mr. James will be into a girl like this, small and delicate. It does surprise me.'' James turned around and found that Kara had been standing by the door in a daze. Realizing that she was so nervous that she didn''t know whether to enter or not, he simply held her little hand and led her into the vi. The moment he touched her hand, he was stunned. He found that her small hand was soft and thin. Showing no emotion, James let go off her. "This is Kara. Take care of her from now on," he said to Libby. Sitting at the dining table, Kara twisted her hands, feeling reserved and uneasy. It took her a lot of courage to ask Uncle James for a ce to live, but right now this huge vi didn''t feel secure to her. "Finish this bowl of chicken soup," James ordered. Kara rubbed her rounded belly. She was going to refuse, but the man''s cold and handsome face stunned her into obedience. James watched as she drank the soup and felt satisfied. Kara was such a good and sensible little girl, providing for her was no more than feeding another mouth. And by this, he could repay David''s kindness to him back then. "Miss Kara, tell me if you have anything in mind. I''ll make it for you." Libby the chef looked at her delicate face and felt a surge ofpassion. "Thank you, Libby. Anything is fine. I''m not a picky eater." Kara was telling the truth. She wasn''t too picky about food, but because she took medicine all the time, she didn''t put on any weight even though she ate a lot. "Libby, take her upstairs to rest." James nced at the little girl with his cold brown eyes, and his voice was calm. "Yes." Libby nodded and led Kara upstairs. Kara lowered her head and walked to the stairs. She turned around and promised in earnest, "Uncle James, I will be good and listen to Libby." "OK. Go to rest now." Kara''s slender figure disappeared at the corner. James'' expression darkened and turned frosty. Nn, who had just entered the vi, felt the chill and shrugged to cheer himself up. He did not dare to approach James. "How did the investigation go?" As soon as James sent the girl to the hospital, he ordered Nn to investigate her. Nn wasted no time and was efficient. He offered a thick stack of documents to James. "Mr. James, this is Miss Kara''s information since she was born." James flipped through the documents and found some old photos. The girl smiled like a cute porcin doll. "The girl''s 17?" From the girl''s young and tender face, James had assumed she was a junior high student. "Yes, Miss Kara wille of age in three months. Mr. David''sst words said that she should inherit the shares of the Quain Group when Miss Kara turns 18. However, her second uncle, Adam, was impatient for a birthday banquet where he could announce that he was now thergest shareholder of the Quain Group. Miss Kara has been lonely and helpless. Her grandparents don''t like her. And no one helps her. No wonder she would be trampled upon." How could a fragile little girl be up against such a group of unscrupulous rtives? It was even likely that Adam wouldn''t let her survive her 18th birthday. "What are the Quains doing now?" "Adam has sent out people to look for Miss Kara. I guess if Miss Kara doesn''t do what he wants, he will probably have her killed before her 18th birthday." The more Nn thought about it, the more he sympathized with the little girl. If James hadn''t taken her to the hospital, she might have been held custody by the Quains. N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content. However, Nn was surprised by James'' kind gesture. James had been ascetic. It turned out that he fancied little lolis like Kara? "Keep an eye on the Quains. Summon a few of your best men here and make sure she''s safe," James ordered. Chapter 5 Ride on His Coattails Chapter 5 Ride on His Coattails Kara followed Libby upstairs. Lying down for a while, she felt that the wounds on her back hurt, so she asked Libby to help her apply medicine to them. When Libby saw the wounds on Kara''s back, she felt so sorry for her. She couldn''t help but wonder if Mr. James had hurt her. It was so rare to see a young and beautiful girl around Mr. James, but he still treated her so sadistically. No wonder he had never had a girlfriend! Kara did not know that Libby had misunderstood James. She was not feeling very well and could not go to school, so she called her teacher to ask for a day off. However, the teacher told her that her aunt Sophia and her cousin Kathleen had gone to school to look for her and to take her home. That reminded Kara of her grandma''s twisted face and Sophia''s hypocritical smile. She was so This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org. frightened that she hung up the phone immediately. She couldn''t rest assured, so she even turned off her phone. For the Quain Group''s shares, her uncle Adam would never stop hunting for her. However, with her capacities now, the chance of obtaining the Quain Group''s shares was zero. If only Uncle James could help her... Thinking of the tall and strong man''s sullen but handsome face appeared, Kara began to bite the tip of her chopsticks and ponder. "Libby, do you know where Uncle James'' ce is?" Hearing the girl ask the question in a low voice, Libby turned to look at her delicate little face, and she couldn''t help but be amazed by it. This girl looked like a porcin doll. No wonder Mr. James liked her. Libby wanted to pinch her chubby little face every time she heard her sweet voice. "Miss Kara, this is the vi of your Uncle James." Kara''s eyes widened in surprise. She had asked Uncle James to help her find a safe ce, but she had never expected that he would bring her to his ce! "Then why hasn''t Uncle Jamese back here in the past few days?" "Mr. James has gone on a business trip. He is busy with his work. He only stays in this country for a few days a month." So he would be back here after his business trip? Kara could feel her heart pounding faster. Her amber colored eyes lit up as she said, "Do you know when Uncle James will be back?" Libby smiled wryly. She was just a cook. How could she know about that? Libby couldn''t bear to see the girl lower her head in disappointment. When Kara went upstairs to have a rest, Libby called Nn after thinking for a while, and she found that James would be back tonight. After Kara got the news from Libby that Uncle James would be back in the evening, she also ran to the kitchen to help before dinner. Unfortunately, she had never been in the kitchen since she was young, and she could not even name all the things in the kitchen. She almost hurt her finger when she tried to chop some vegetables. Looking at Kara''s beautiful fingers, Libby wanted to refuse her help. However, since Kara knew that she was on her own now and that she had to be strong, she didn''t want to give up any chance to learn. After cracking eight eggs, she finally learned how to beat eggs. Libby''s lips twitched as she looked at the big smile on Kara''s excited face, as well as the bowl of eggs with eggshells in it. After dinner was ready, Kara sat on the sofa, staring outside with her sparkling eyes. An hourter, hearing a car park outside the vi, she felt very excited and there was nothing but anticipation on her face. The door opened, but it wasn''t James who had entered the vi. It was a skinny and sexy woman. The smile on Kara''s pretty face froze as panic appeared in her amber colored eyes. The woman who had just entered the vi was Kathleen. She was wearing a beautiful ck off-the- shoulder dress which went perfectly with her makeup, and she looked dignified anddylike. As she looked up and saw Kara standing in the living room, she was also so surprised that her eyes widened. "Kara, why are you here?" Kara''s cousin, Kathleen, dressed like ady, but once she spoke, that impression of ady instantly vanished. Kara also couldn''t figure out why her cousin was here, and her first reaction was to flee. Kathleen had always said that she would treat Kara as her own sister, but she would curse Kara in her heart and wished her dead behind her back. Kara felt that Kathleen in front of her was like a poisonous snake that could squirt poison. That was why she was so scared. However, she realized she was being a coward the moment when she moved her feet. She didn''t owe her anything, so why should she be afraid of her? Even if Kathleen was really a poisonous snake, this was Uncle James'' vi. Uncle James had said that the Quains would not dare to harm her here. So she tried to suppress the fear in her heart, clenched her hands tightly into fists, and took another step forward. "This is Uncle James'' ce. I should ask you the same question. What are you doing here?" Kara was not willing to give in. She stubbornly raised her head and looked at Kathleen. Kathleen looked coldly at Kara who was pretending to be calm and sneered contemptuously, "We were worried that you would suffer outside, but you actually hid here to enjoy your happiness." "You said that this is your Uncle James'' home. Kara, when did you be this shameless?" "Since I''ve found you, you''d better hurry home. Grandma has been waiting for you at home!" Kathleen felt disdain. When Kara was in the Quain''s, Kara would even cry when grandma yelled. And now the invalid actually dared to talk back! Did she think no one could touch her just because she was here? Ever since the birthday banquet, father had people look for Kara, but they couldn''t find Kara even after turning NK City upside down. They all wondered if Kara was abducted and sold by human traffickers. If so, they would not need to kill her themselves. She didn''t expect to see Kara in James'' vi. Kathleen was both shocked and angry. Today, Madam Hemming told her toe here and serve Mr. James. She didn''t want such a good opportunity to be ruined by this invalid. Kathleen impatiently called over her bodyguards and asked them to bring Kara home. Seeing the two strong mening forward, Kara dodged back in fear. "Kathleen, this isn''t the Quain''s. This is Uncle James'' vi. If you dare to take me away, he won''t let you go!" A faint sneer of satisfaction crossed her face. Kathleen said proudly, "Kara, your Uncle James is my fianc¨¦! Do you think Mr. James will help you or his fianc¨¦e?" Chapter 6 Leaning in Mr. James Arms Chapter 6 Leaning in Mr. James'' Arms Hearing Kathleen''s words, the two bodyguards did not dare to dy any longer. They grabbed Kara and wanted to take her away. When Kara learned that Kathleen was actually James'' fianc¨¦e, she was so shocked that she forgot to struggle. Uncle James was the fianc¨¦ Kathleen mentioned? That was ridiculous. She even hoped that Uncle James would help her fight for the shares of the Quain Group! Herst hope was ruined by Kathleen. Kara was desperate and her eyes were sour. Libby who was busy in the kitchen, heard themotion and ran out. When she saw two strong men trying to catch Kara, she rushed up to push them away. "Who are you? Why are you taking Miss Kara?" The two bodyguards looked at Kathleen awkwardly and didn''t know if they should continue. When Kathleen saw Libby, she put away her gloomy and ruthless expression and wore a ttering one. She wanted to grab Libby by her hand, but Libby avoided her. "Miss Kathleen, you are so bold. You dare to kidnap Miss Kara in Mr. James'' vi!" Libby knew Kathleen. Madam Hemming brought Kathleen to the vi and said that Miss Kathleen was Mr. James'' fianc¨¦e. However, Mr. James did not give Miss Kathleen a single nce and perfunctorily chased her away. Mr. James did not like Kathleen, but Kara was a girl personally brought back by Mr. James. Libby could clearly see who was more important. "Libby, Kara is my cousin. She is young and mischievous.
