Karen Joy Kyle held a pillow in her arms and patted it, "Brother Lionel, I've grown up and I'm no longer an innocent child anymore. I don't need you to help me take out the bad guys. I just hope that I can find you as soon as possible. I've been missing you a lot."
As for what she would do after telling Brother Lionel that she missed him, Karen Joy wasn't sure.
She turned over and looked at the ceiling. Maybe Brother Lionel had already gotten married and had children. His children might have already grown up too.
As she thought about the possibility of Brother Lionel having his own family, Karen Joy's heart suddenly twitched. She felt so downhearted.
Was she being too selfish?
She did not want to see Brother Lionel getting married and having children. She hoped that he would wait for her to grow up.
But she knew that it might be impossible.
For the entire night, Karen Joy thought about too many things, so she could only fall asleep after midnight. The next morning, she only woke up in the afternoon.
When she woke up, she thought she was at home. She habitually reached out to pick her phone so her little precious brother could sing her a wake-up song. She was used to doing this so that she would feel energised.
However, she stretched out her hand and touched around her side table for some time, but she could not get hold of the phone. Then she remembered that she was in a foreign land and could not see her cute brother.
She was wondering if the Little Precious back home missed his sister?
He would probably think of her.
Although he was only eight years old, he always put on a proud and cold look like their father. She guessed that he would not miss her.
If her Little Precious did not miss her, her grandparents and parents would definitely worry about her. She left her mobile phone at home, thus they could not get in touch with her. Would they wonder if something bad had happened to her?
She thought that she needed to call her parents and tell them that she was safe so that they could rest assured.
Ruffling through her untidy hair, Karen Joy lay on her bed lazily for a few more minutes before she got up slowly from the bed.
"Karen Joy, are you awake?" Samantha Lesley knocked on Karen Joy's door right on time. "It's already noon. If you don't get up now, the sun will go down soon."
"Dear Miss Lesley, are you my mother?" Karen Joy opened the door in her unkempt state and let Samantha in.
"Haha..." Samantha wore her usual silly smile and said, "My brother is at home today and wants to have lunch with us."
"Your brother?" Karen Joy pondered for a moment. He was like the parent of the family, so she had to present herself well as to not leave a bad impression on him.
Samantha's parents passed away early, and she was raised by her older brother. Naturally, her brother was like a father to her.
In front of strangers, Karen Joy dressed up very well and acted like a pleasant young lady. She showed her elegance well. When she saw Jason Lesley, who handled affairs for the President, she did not lose her confidence at all.
"Hello, Miss Kyle! Welcome to our place." This was the person whom their Mr. President wanted to protect. Jason treated her so well as though he was dealing with Mr. President's wife.
"Hello, Mr. Lesley!" Karen Joy smiled politely. "I hope I didn't cause you any trouble."
