My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 4

"I..." Kevin moved his thin lips but said nothing. His eyes showed a hint of incomprehensible depth beneath the golden glasses. He stared at Karen's back and thought for a few seconds, then he turned and walked to the study room.

In the past three years, Karen had rented a room for herself and lived alone. She was very good at making some home-cooked dishes. Soon, two dishes and soup were served on the table.-

"Kevin, it's time to eat." Karen knocked on the door of the study room carefully and gently pushed the door open when she did not hear a reply.

Kevin was making a phone call in the study. He said, "Take care of these things. You don't have to report everything to me."

After that, he hung up the phone immediately. The moment he looked up, he met Karen's eyes and asked coldly, "What's the matter?"

"Time to eat," Karen smiled and did not dare to look at him.

"I'll be there in a second." His tone was indifferent as usual.

The two of them sat opposite each other, eating their meal tensely. Neither of them spoke to break the silence. For a moment, the atmosphere seemed to be extremely boring.

Karen moved her lips several times to find some topics to talk about, but she swallowed back her words after seeing Kevin's indifferent expression.

After dinner, Kevin offered to wash dishes for her, and Karen did not refuse. Since he was willing to share the burden of these chores with her, she was happy to let him do so.

It could be seen from Kevin's clumsiness that he had never done these things before.

But it was true. It was impossible for the boss of such a big company to do such trivial things such as washing dishes.

Clank—

Hearing the crack of a porcelain bowl in the kitchen, Karen stood up immediately and walked over.

What she saw was Kevin holding a bowl in his hand and staring blankly at the broken porcelain pieces on the ground.

"Let me do it." Karen walked over and wanted to take the bowl from Kevin's hand.

"No, I'll do it." Kevin stretched out his hand, and his tone did not change.

"Kevin, actually..." Karen looked at Kevin's firm eyes and could not say anything. She nodded and left the kitchen to let him continue.

Although they were legally a couple, Kevin was still a man that Karen was not familiar with.

She wanted to know him more, to know everything about him. She was trying her best to be a good wife.

However, with a personality like his, could she really get close to him like how she had planned when they had gotten married?

Karen sat down in the living room, picked up the remote control, turned on the TV, she randomly put on a news channel.

While watching the TV, she occasionally turned her head to look in the direction of the kitchen. Through the glass door, she saw Kevin carefully cleaning bowls and cutlery.

She secretly sighed in her heart. How could a man look so good while washing dishes?

Perhaps Karen's gaze was too obvious, Kevin looked back as well. Their eyes met, and Karen saw the slight coldness in Kevin's eyes. But he then let out an impeccably polite smile.

Karen's face turned slightly red as she was caught looking at him, and she returned a polite smile.

Karen turned her eyes back to the TV screen, thinking about Kevin.

This man was so confident at work and even looked so good while washing dishes. When would she ever see him make a fool of himself?

After tidying up the kitchen, Kevin returned to the hall and saw that Karen was in a daze. He stared at her delicate face and said after a few seconds, "Karen."

"Ah..." Karen said as she listened to his soothing voice. She found it very pleasant. For a moment, she felt her face burning hot.
