It was the first time for Faye Reed at the Kyle family's mansion in the United States, and it was the first time for Karen Daly too. She was also surprised to see such a huge manor.
She had always thought that their Secret Garden in Chatterton Town was ridiculously luxurious enough. That was a large manor, so large in a way that many people would still not be able to afford despite struggling hard for several lifetimes. However, compared to the Kyle family's mansion in New York, Secret Garden was pretty insignificant.
Walking in from the main entrance, there were all kinds of leisure facilities around, such as pavilions, rockeries, fountains and so on. It seemed like a themed recreational park instead of a residential home.
From this, it could be seen that the Rovio’s financial resources and Kevin's capabilities were far beyond Karen's imagination.
It seemed like she knew too little about Kevin. She was definitely not qualified to be his wife.
As Karen was looking around, Kevin walked over to her and gently held her waist, "I have always wanted to bring you here to have a look, but I always got occupied with things."
"It doesn't matter. I'm here now." Karen looked up at him with a smile and said, "I am not overthinking, don't worry."
Both of them had been through so many things together. She understood how nicely he had treated her. How could she misunderstand him?
"It's good that you aren't thinking too much." Kevin stroked her head. "When you get better, I will accompany you around for a walk. Later, I will ask Mia and Little Karen to show Faye around too."
Kevin was never the type of person who would take the initiative to introduce and show people around; on the contrary, Faye was always a curious person. He did not want to be a tour guide, so it was most appropriate to hand this task over to Mia and Little Karen.
"Well, let Little Karen greet the guests on our behalf." Karen was clear about her own physical condition. Currently, she could not withstand the cold wind outside and she could not walk for a long time, so she knew she could not entertain Faye well.
Little Karen was the treasure of their family, and Faye really liked her. Therefore, Faye would definitely be happy to have Little Karen as her guide.
"Karen!" Kevin suddenly stopped walking and wrapped his arms around Karen's shoulder.
"Hmm?" Karen looked up at him and made eye contact with his brooding eyes.
Kevin drew her hair behind her ears, held her head gently, and pushed her into his arms. "This is so great!"
He only said a few words, but Karen knew exactly what he wanted to say.
He must have wanted to say that both of them could walk together hand in hand now and he could hug her, so that was great!
Besides Kevin reeling in happiness, Karen also felt that every second and minute they spent together was so precious.
On the day of the explosion, she thought she could not wake up anymore after closing her eyes.
She thought that she could not see Kevin and Little Karen anymore.
When she was lying on the bed and unconscious, she almost drowned in the abyss of darkness several times as she wandered at the brink of death. It was not easy for her to come round. She never dared to think about being able to still be physically well, or stay by Kevin's side and have him hold her while she nestled in his arms, listening to his steady and thumping heartbeat.
In her life, she had experienced a lot of unfortunate events, including losing her parents, having her child being taken away, giving in to her enemies, and more.
But she had no regrets at all. She did not regret living in this world.
Because among all the bad things that happened, she met Kevin, the man who held her so dearly in his heart.
She was willing to spend the rest of her life accompanying him.
