My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 281

Beaford City was the capital of a country, so you could imagine the lifestyle here.

If you look up, there are skyscrapers everywhere, buried in the clouds.

Karen Daly could not figure out where she was when she got out of the taxi. That's hard to imagine since she grew up in this city.

The streets, the buildings, the pedestrians, everything was unfamiliar to her as if she'd never lived here before.

Karen Daly took a deep breath, as she put on a smile and told herself, "Karen Daly, it's okay."

Just because she could not remember anything today, it did not mean that she would not make any progress tomorrow. If she tried hard enough, she'd definitely be able to remember her past.

Karen Daly had only one purpose in mind for her trip to Beaford City. She needed to find the whereabouts of her pitiful, yet hateful sister, Kristine Daly, as mentioned by Faye Reed.

Before coming to Beaford City, Karen Daly had already contacted Kristine Daly ahead of time and told her that she would like to meet up with her, and Kristine Daly immediately agreed.

"Kristine Daly..."

Silently, Karen Daly recited the name over and over again, trying to bring back any sort of memory that was buried deep in her mind. Something was definitely there, but she couldn't remember any little detail about Kristine Daly.

Karen Daly had learned some information from Faye Reed, and from the additional information that she found on the Internet, she knew that Kristine Daly was disfigured once, and she was also mentally unwell once.

But Kristine Daly's doing better now, having done plastic surgery and she's starting life anew. She's currently employed at a startup company in Beaford City, as well as owning some of the company's shares.

If it weren't for the fact that she had heard too many negative stories about Kristine Daly, Karen Daly would've thought that Kristine Daly was a very inspirational person.

Karen Daly shook her head, not wanting to hear about the things that Kristine Daly had done in the past. She's only hoping to get other insights from Kristine Daly.

The buildings around her looked almost identical to each other, hence Karen Daly had trouble finding the company that Kristine Daly was working at, which was Wilis Corporation, even with the help of the navigation application on her phone.

As a last resort, Karen Daly texted Kristine Daly. "I'm here. But I can't find your office."

Not long after the text was sent, Karen Daly got a call from Kristine Daly. She sounded almost similar to what Karen Daly imagined she would sound like, soothing and very pleasant.

She said, "Where are you? I'll go look for you."

Karen Daly took a quick look around and gave the name of a shop on her left, then she hung up the phone and waited for Kristine Daly.

......

Kristine Daly didn't leave immediately after she'd hung up the phone, though. Instead, she made her way to the window, and she looked at the convenience store across the street downstairs.

There stood a tall woman wearing a cap, white shirt, and jeans on the right side of the convenience store. She was looking around, probably trying to get familiar with her surroundings.

She still looked beautiful even though a few years had passed. She was tall and slender, and she looked like she had good skin, like a young schoolgirl. It would have been impossible to tell that she was already the mother of a young child.

The woman who should have passed away three years ago, the woman who had outdone her over and over again... Kristine Daly thought that they would never meet again in this life, but she came back alive and even took the initiative to contact her.

Kristine Daly had started a new life and achieved some results at work. Kristine was trying to forget all the painful memories that had happened to her.

As long as no one reminded her, she was starting to put her past behind her.

But just as she was about to move on, Samuel Daly, who had been on the run, came back with Karen Daly, who should have died.

Karen Daly was the last person that Kristine Daly would want to see because seeing Karen Daly now would force her to recall how badly defeated she was by Karen Daly in the past.
