My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1274

Back in Secret Garden, Chatterton Town.

Kevin Kyle was in the middle of a video conference in his study when he heard a series of knocks on the door. He turned off the microphone and looked at the door. "Come in."

Karen Daly, who was holding a cup of hot tea in her hand, came in. She walked up to him and handed him the cup. "Are you done with your work?"

Kevin held her hand and asked, "What's the matter?"

If Kevin said so, that would mean that he was not done with his work yet. After being with him for so many years, Karen could already tell the meaning behind every word Kevin had said, so she said, "You can get your work done first. We can talk after that."

Knowing that he was busy with his work, Karen stepped aside and did not disturb him. She would wait until he was done with his work.

Since Karen had come to look for him, it must be something serious. Kevin quickly typed on the keyboard, "I have something else to attend to, you guys can go ahead with the meeting."

After sending out the message, Kevin turned off the conference call and turned his head to look at Karen, "What's wrong?"

"You can do whatever you need to do first. Let's talk when you're done, okay? It's a long story, so it's going to take up quite some time." After thinking about it for two days, Karen had finally decided to speak to Kevin about it.

"I'm done with my work," said Kevin.

"You're really done with your work?" Karen didn't believe it, but since he had said so, it meant that he was willing to take out some of his time to listen to her. Hence, she didn't want to waste any of his time and immediately said, "It's snowing in Madison City. It's the biggest snowfall in the past sixty years."

"Okay, got it." Kevin nodded his head, coupled with his usual aloofness.

"You got it? That's all?" Even though they had been together for decades and she had been long accustomed to his behavior, Karen would still get agitated when she talked to him sometimes.

Karen was anxious, but Kevin maintained his composure, "What do you want me to say

then?"

Karen stared into his eyes and said, "Kevin, is that the point though?"

Kevin asked, "What was it that you're trying to tell me?"

Well, since he pretended to be ignorant, Karen had no choice but to be straightforward with him. "I'm here to talk to you about Jayden. You heard about Jayden's health from Julien, didn't you? With such heavy snowfall, do you think that his body will be able to take it?"

After Julien Glover Kyle had returned home, he immediately informed his parents about Jayden's condition, especially the aftermath that he was currently suffering due to the gunshot wound.

After learning about the situation, Karen had been so worried that she could not eat nor sleep well for the past two days. However, Kevin acted as if he did not know anything. He carried on with his life and never mentioned anything about Jayden.

"Yes." Kevin's answer was cold and simple, which almost made Karen well up with rage. "Kevin, what are you talking about?"

Karen knew that Kevin was a cold man with a low EQ, but he would still care for his family, except for Jayden.

Karen knew that he did care about Jayden, but he was a reticent person. Hence, he would never bring up Jayden's matter. Whenever anyone in the family mentioned it, he would not give any response to it too. Those who did not know would think that he was being like this because Jayden was not his biological son.

Kevin said with a solemn face, "What do you want me to say then?"

Karen was completely speechless.

Well, he was no doubt a man who was emotionally detached. They had been together for so many years now, and it was not like she didn't know him well enough. How could she expect him to say something pleasant?
