My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 25

"Hello." Before she could finish her words, Karen was shocked by the person in front of her. She was speechless for a moment.

Ken was not alone. There was another tall man in a black suit.

The man stood before the large French window, with his hands behind his back, and his gentle eyes gently fell on Karen.

The two of them looked at each other quietly, and neither of them looked away.

Three years on, Karen had thought that it would not shock her when she meets this person again, but the reality was that it did shock her.

Seeing this face that she had been so familiar with before, all the bad memories flooded into her heart like a tidal wave, tearing away at her newly healed scar ruthlessly, and it was as if there was blood slowly flowing out of her heart.

She wanted to turn around and leave, but the heavy pain of the past dragged her so hard that she could not move at all. She could only stare at the man in front of her.

After looking at each other for a long time, the man stepped towards her and walked to her side. He smiled and said, "Manager Black, this must be Miss Daly you have been praising."

Hearing the man's voice, especially the words "Miss Daly" felt like a blow to Karen's mind, it was an extremely sobering experience.

"Charlie, yes." Ken nodded repeatedly and said, "Miss Daly, this is Charlie Gook of the Gook Family. He wants to hear your opinion on this project."

Karen clenched her fists and gasped, trying to maintain her professional smile. "Hello, Mr. Gook!"

Although she had tried her best to maintain her professional demeanor, her voice was still trembling.

Ken added, "I heard from Manager Olsen that Miss Daly is very devoted to preparing for this case. Please share it with us."

"Mr. Black, you flatter me." Karen gasped again. She opened her laptop, tried hard to ignore the existence of the other man, and began sharing her opinions on the project in a serious manner.

During her explanation, she felt a burning gaze staring at her, but she chose to ignore it.

While she was talking, the secretary came in and called Ken away. Karen did not notice it. When she finally realized, it was only herself and the man called Charlie Gook in the office.

There was no one else around. The smile on Karen's face disappeared instantly. She got up and left without saying goodbye.

The man moved faster than she could. He stretched out his long arm and pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly. He shouted out a word full of affection from the bottom of his heart, "Karen…..."

Karen struggled to break free from his embrace. She clenched her fists and closed her eyes. When she opened her eyes again, her eyes were filled with indifference. "Sir, please behave yourself."

After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave. The man reached out and grabbed her wrist again. "Karen, it's been three years. Are you still blaming me?"

Karen wanted to get rid of him, but his grip was so strong that her wrist hurt, she couldn’t shake him off.

Karen took a deep breath, endured the heart-wrenching pain, and coldly said, "Sir, please let me go, or don't blame me for being rude."

The man ignored her threatening words and said affectionately, "Karen, sit down and let's have a talk."

"Let go of me." Karen bit her lip, turned her head away, and blinked, forcing back the tears that were rushing out of her eyes.
