My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 29

Karen, obviously, did not have a clue about Kevin never getting second place at school since he was young. He had graduated from Harvard University, which was part of the Ivy League, and that it only took him half the normal duration to obtain a doctorate degree from the university.

"You must have been beaten up a lot." Karen suddenly felt upset for him." I truly don't understand what you boys are thinking."

Karen added, "When I was young, I ranked first in the entire school for all subjects, and then I was admitted to the most renowned university in New York at that time."

However, she originally did not want to enroll in that school. Karen wanted to major in her favorite subject which was art, rather than going off to the top university in New York.

Her biggest dream was to design the most elegant bridal gown in the world, with the aim that any girl could put on a bridal gown of her design and become the most beautiful bride.

However, this dream ended the day Karen designed her own bridal gown three years ago. Since then, she had never picked up her brush again.

Thinking of this, Karen looked down. The tranquil life that she finally built was suddenly rudely trespassed upon.

Now she was so afraid to the point that she didn't even have the courage to tell Kevin about her past.

Karen was not sure if he would be as comfortable as before if he found out the truth. But Kevin really didn't care about her past, but only cared about her future.

Karen shut her eyes and wanted to leave his arms, however when she moved, he held her firmly. Kevin then stated, "Karen, I am your husband."

He had emphasized this matter more than once before, and she could not help but look straight at him. Under the amber light, his face was not as cold as usual but bathed with a soft light which made people feel at ease.

Karen nodded and grinned. "I know."

These four words 'I am your husband' seemed very simple, but yet Karen understood deeply the meaning of his words. Even if there was no true affection, he had vouched to accompany her through the up and downs in life.

Not long after, Karen fell asleep in Kevin's arms.

She slept through the night and no longer had nightmares that usually woke her up during the night. She woke up promptly the next morning.

The moment she awoke, Kevin was already sitting by the window and reading the newspaper carefully. When he heard her wake up, he looked up and said as usual, "You're awake."

For over a month, every day went by this routine. Karen had always wanted such a simple life.

Regardless of what occurs, there would always be someone by her side, living peacefully together and growing older together.

She immediately sat up and grinned happily. "Director Kevin, Good morning."

They did not mention what had happened yesterday, as though nothing had happened or perhaps it was just a nightmare. Everything was back to normal when they woke up from their slumber.

At the breakfast table, Karen asked Kevin, "Are you going on a business trip today?"

Kevin's mouth was loaded with food. He did not answer but just shook his head.

His daily amount of work was truly not what ordinary people could handle, however, today he had to deal with a project at Innovative Tech first.

Momo barked a couple of times to draw the attention of her "mother". Momo was very dissatisfied from last night till this morning because she felt she was being neglected.

Karen picked the dog up and rubbed its face. "I forgot to buy you something delicious last night. I'll get it for you today."
