My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 11

Although everyone was excited, they did not forget to gossip about the big boss.

Suddenly, whether the boss would take part in this event became the focus of discussion.

While her colleagues were thinking about this question, Karen was also thinking about Kevin.

Kevin was on a business trip this week. She hadn't seen him for several days. When would he come back?

Although he did call her on time every night, his relationship with her had not reached the point where he could say much. Most of the time, the two people on both sides of the phone were silent.

Meanwhile, someone had started a bet in the employee's casual group chat. The bet was on whether their boss would take part in the event, and each participant would place a stake of 500 dollars.

Five hundred dollars was not that much. Many people responded quickly, and dozens of people were now in on the bet. The votes were almost equal.

May and William came to look for Karen at the same time and asked, "Karen, do you want to bet on this?"

She did a quick analysis.

Although Kevin was cold and distant, this was the first time that the company had organized such a big event after he had taken office, and they were going to such a luxurious place. He must have ordered Special Assistant Amelia to organize this, so Karen placed a bet on Kevin attending it.

As they were about to get off work, Karen received a call from Kevin. She knew that he had just come back from a business trip, so she went to the supermarket and bought some ingredients, daily necessities, and snacks for tomorrow's trip.

When they got home, Kevin was still busy in the study. After saying hello to him, Karen went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

While eating, Kevin still did not say a word. He ate gracefully.

Karen peeped at him several times and finally ventured to ask, "Kevin, will you be going for the company's activities tomorrow?"

Kevin did not seem to hear her question but continued to eat seriously.

As he did not answer, Karen felt a little embarrassed. She lowered her head to eat.

After some time, Kevin put down his cutlery, picked up a paper towel to wipe his mouth, and casually replied, "I'm not interested in such activities."

Kevin didn't say it directly, but it was obvious that he didn't want to go.

"Oh," Karen whispered, and her voice was full of disappointment.

"What is it? Do you want me to go?" Seeing her disappointed look, Kevin suddenly said.

Karen scratched her head and giggled, thinking, "It doesn't matter whether you go or not. What I care about are the 500 dollars I have a bet."

Under the bright chandelier, Kevin raised his eyebrows slightly. Since she wanted him to go, as her husband, he would take the time to go there.

......

The next day, Karen got up very early, but Kevin had gotten up earlier than she did.

They had been living together for some time, but no matter how early she got up, Kevin was always already dressed neatly when she wakes up, sitting by the window and reading the financial newspaper.

Sometimes, she felt that Kevin did not seem to be a person living in this era.

His daily routine was extremely unusual. Every day, he would take time to read the newspaper, instead of getting news on the internet.

"Morning!" He looked up at her and then looked down at the newspaper.

"Well, good morning!" Karen looked at him. She suddenly couldn't move her eyes away.

He wore a white casual suit today and sat quietly in the armchair by the window. His long slender legs were crossed casually. The morning sunshine gently shone on him through the window, making him look a little warmer.
