My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 6

Gossip was a terrifying thing. It was something that Karen had experienced firsthand.

If the company's colleagues had seen her going to work in the new boss's car, she would be slashed to death by all kinds of rumors.

So, when Kevin asked her to go to work with him in his car, she shook her head and refused without thinking.

Although she didn't take his car, they arrived at the company at almost the same time.

Karen and a group of people were waiting for the elevator. Kevin, surrounded by two special assistants, walked to his exclusive elevator as the company's boss.

She wanted to pretend not to see him, but she felt that it was inappropriate to ignore him completely. So she followed suit when the group of people around her greeted politely, "Director Kevin, good morning!"

"Good morning," Kevin answered indifferently. He glanced around and stepped into the elevator, turning his back on them coldly.

Kevin's indifference did not ruin their enthusiasm, and they were talking about him eagerly.

Karen did not participate in the discussion but felt a little funny in her heart.

Kevin's style of separating work and personal life was very obvious.

At this time, she thought of a popular phrase to describe Kevin—the Prince of Suppressed Lust.

As soon as she entered the office, she decided to forget about her relationship with Kevin completely and devoted herself to her work.

Recently, Karen and several colleagues from the same department had been busy preparing for the bidding of Star Glow Corporation.

As the bidding date loomed closer, Karen's work entered a state of tension. When she was busy, she sometimes even had no time to eat lunch.

In the company, Karen was known as a workaholic. It was common for her to work straight without eating. But no one really cared about her.

Today, while Karen was in the middle of something, she received a call from Kevin.

Karen looked around and saw that there was no one there. Then she picked up the phone carefully. "What's the matter?"

She felt that he should not call her when she was in the company, as this may let slip their relationship to others.

Obviously, Kevin did not expect Karen to answer this way. After a pause, he said, "Work is important, but we should still eat."

His voice was still light, but it sounded very concerned.

Karen blushed and said, "Alright, I know."

On the other side of the phone, Kevin did not speak. Karen also did not know what else to say. After saying goodbye, she was about to hang up the phone.

At the last moment, Kevin said, "I'm in Room 1808, Baiha Restaurant."

Karen nodded instinctively. "Then you should eat. I won't bother you."

"Karen!" Kevin's tone was obviously a little heavy. After a few seconds, he said, "I'll wait for you."

"There's no need..." Karen instinctively refused, but before she could finish, he had already hung up.

Looking at the dark screen on her phone, Karen frowned slightly and sighed helplessly. What reason did she have to refuse lunch with her new husband?

Baiha Restaurant was a five-star restaurant near the office, which was very expensive. Karen did not usually go there unless the company was treating important clients to meals.

When she arrived at the restaurant, Karen tried to avoid being recognized. But who would have known that she immediately ran into Kevin's special assistant, Amelia Gray?

Karen pretended not to see her, but Amelia stopped her. "Miss Karen, Director Kevin, asked me to pick you up."
