He looked at her tenderly. She would always feel weak when he had his adoring eyes on her.
He told her with his familiar seductive and pleasant voice that his heart was absolutely empty without her,.
Karen wanted to go closer and embrace his tenderness.
She really wanted to go back to him, raise their children together, and slowly grow old with him.
Just as she was trying to walk up to Kevin and submit herself to him again, she heard voices in her mind.
"Karen, no."
"You can't go back to Kevin's side. Don't forget how your mother died, and how your father was killed."
"If you don't want Kevin to become the third person, then stay away from him and don't appear next to him again."
Like a bucket of ice water, the voices woke Karen up just in time.
She woke up from the loving dream that Kevin had painted for her.
She was here to warn him about Chace. She was not here to listen to his confession of love.
Whatever was going on now was completely beyond Karen's expectation. She had to act rationally.
Karen shook her head and turned around as she tried to escape. But immediately, Kevin caught her.
Kevin raised her hand and placed it on his heart. He said slowly, "Karen, do you feel it? This heart is beating faster just for you."
This heart had been beating so slowly for so many days. Today, when he heard that she was worried about him, this heart finally came back to life again.
His heart would only beat for her, and she was the only person who could bring him back to life.
When he saw her happy, he would be in absolute joy; and when she was not around, his heart was also "dead".
Karen could feel that Kevin's heart was beating very fast.
The more Kevin behaved like this, the more worried Karen was.
She wanted to withdraw her hand, but Kevin held her tight and kissed her on the lips. "Karen, Chace can't do anything to me. Why can't you believe me for once?"
She believed in him, but she was afraid... From a rational perspective, she knew that Chace could not do anything to Kevin. But what if he did?
Nothing in the world was absolute.
What if something bad happened to Kevin because of Chace? What would happen to Little Karen then? What would happen to her and the baby then?
Karen did not dare to think about what might happen, so she would rather endure the heartache and therefore proposed a divorce. She knew Kevin would be safer without her.
"Karen, answer me! Don't keep everything to yourself. Talk to me!" Kevin tried to communicate with her. If neither of them spoke, this knot would never be untied.
Karen shook her head and remained silent. She was not willing to say anything.
Karen's silence had annoyed Kevin. He really did not know what he should tell her. How could he convince her that Chace would never be a threat to him and that she could return to him safely?
