Kevin said without thinking, "At Innovative Tech, I am the boss, and you can count on me. Only you can bully others. How can you let others bully you?"
"Thank you!" Karen said.
Fortunately, he did not ask anything more, but just stood beside her to support her.
"Thank me for what?" Kevin raised his eyebrows and said, "We're husband and wife. Shouldn't we trust each other and help each other?"
Karen raised her eyebrows and smiled. The feeling of being trusted and being silently supported felt really good, which made her feel a trace of warmth even in the cool autumn breeze.
Seeing Karen smiling, Kevin added, "How about going with me for a walk?"
Karen did not want to go back to participate in the activities, but she was worried about being seen by others. For a moment, she did not know whether to agree or not.
Kevin did not give her time to think about it. He took her hand and said, "Follow me."
Karen's hand was very cold. Although it was not that cold in autumn, there was almost no warmth in her hand.
But suddenly, her hand was held by his warm hand, and his heat transmitted to her little by little, and this made her stop pulling back her hand.
After a long time, Karen heard him say in a low voice, "Come to me if you encounter these things in the future."
His words made Karen stop abruptly. She looked up at him, pursed her lips, and asked cautiously, "Kevin, don't you wonder what kind of person I used to be?"
Kevin withdrew his hand and she felt a glimpse of heartache. Just as she was about to say something, his big hands landed on her back and gently embraced her in his arms.
She looked up at him in surprise and Kevin said, "Karen, your past has nothing to do with me. I only care about your future."
Leaning against Kevin's sturdy chest, listening to his calm heartbeat, and hearing his voice, for some reason, her eyes began to blur.
She snuggled like a kitten in his arms. Kevin paused for a moment, then he held on to her even tighter.
After a long time, Karen raised her head from his arms. "I..."
He interrupted her. "I'll take you somewhere."
Karen nodded. He held her hand and continued to move forward.
As he walked, a colorful bed of roses appeared on the left of the lawn.
The flowers were full of colors, and the fragrance was delicate. They were all in full bloom, and it was a magnificent view.
Karen had seen flowers in full bloom before, but she had never seen such a large garden of flowers. She couldn't even see the edge at first glance.
"It's so beautiful! I really want to stay here for a month." Karen kept praising the beauty of this place. She couldn't wait to plunge into the bed of flowers and never come out again.
Kevin looked at her with his seductive thin lips slightly raised. The entire Ocean Behae Villa was his property. She could live here for a lifetime, let alone a month.
Karen asked, "I thought flowers only bloom in early summer? How can they bloom in autumn?"
