"I'm sorry! I can't help it when I see a gorgeous girl." Henry apologized sincerely. He said guiltily, as if he really couldn't control his behavior.
"You can't control yourself? Do you think you are an animal? You can't control your desire when you see a female?" This kind of men liked to use their charm to seduce people. Karen didn't buy this, so she did not say it nicely.
When Karen returned to the office, everyone was still talking about the homicide at Kingston Wharf. It was never-ending.
"Karen, this case is really mysterious and it has hyped up everyone's curiosity. You know a lot of things. Can you perhaps enquire about it, so as to satisfy our curious minds?" Lori, her assistant suddenly came over and said.
"Haven't you heard the saying that curiosity kills the cat?" Everyone is curious, but Karen believed that it was better not to overdo it.
If they went too far, they might get into trouble without realizing it.
All she wanted to do now was to give birth to her second child with Kevin Kyle and then to live a simple family life with Kevin, Little Karen, and their new baby.
Karen's intention had always been as simple as that.
"Well, I know that you have a good mindset. I admit I'm not quite like you. So I'm going to find someone else to gossip with then!" Lori waved at Karen and joined the crowd to continue the gossip.
As Lori ran away, Karen withdrew her gaze. She was still holding the design draft that was handed to her by Henry just now.
It was almost the exact same design draft. If this was not a copy, it couldn't possibly be just a coincidence?"
"Karen, let's have lunch together later."
Again, Henry was standing by the door of her office with his professional attitude.
Karen raised her eyebrows and was about to refuse when she heard Henry said, "Director Cheng is not free in the morning nor the late afternoon. He will have some free time at noon. If we don't settle our case with him today, he will be going abroad for a business trip soon."
It was about work again... Damn!
Karen who wouldn't usually swear couldn't help herself.
But she still managed to hold it in. She had to bear with it because of work... Hector Cheng was there anyway, and Henry had always been decent when Hector was around, so he wouldn't dare do anything irrational.
Karen took a hard look at him and said, "Okay."
"Then I'll see you at noon." Henry smiled and left.
"You'd better stay away, and don't let me see you again. Bloody bad luck!" Karen quickly took out her mobile phone and searched for Mr. Kyle's photo for some relief.
Her Mr. Kyle was still the best and an absolute eye- candy. As she was indulging herself in the photo, Karen inadvertently touched Kevin's face on the photo.
This photo was taken by her when Kevin was asleep. Mr. Kyle was very sexy when he was naked.
Thank goodness she was the only one who could enjoy his sexiness. He certainly wouldn't act like Henry, using his gorgeous eyes to flirt with all the female employees every time.
"Twinkle twinkle little star..."
Karen's mobile suddenly rang. It was still the nursery rhyme "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" that Little Karen liked.
The ringtone was exclusive to Kevin's calls. She knew it was him from the ringtone without looking at the caller ID.
Karen was adoring Mr. Kyle's sexy body when he suddenly called her, she felt as if she had been caught red-handed.
She was blushing when she answered the call. Her voice softened, "Mr. Kyle, you're calling me before noon. Are you missing me?"
