My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 687

"Sorry! It's my fault!" Karen Joy Kyle blinked and soon hid her disappointment. With a confident smile on her face, she said, "Thank you, Mr. President, for your mercy, and for not punishing us for trespassing your office."

She looked at him, but she no longer looked eager and hopeful. She looked at him like a stranger.

Seeing Karen Joy’s change of expression, Nathaniel's heart sank, but he still said calmly, "Little girl, go home early. If you are alone outside, your family will worry about you."

She smiled slightly out of courtesy instead of showing her bright smile. She answered politely, "Thank you, Mr. President. You are really a good President who cares about your citizens."

Yes, in his mother's eyes, he was a filial and good son.

In the people's eyes, he was a good President who loved the people as if they were his children.

But he was not Karen Joy's good brother! She had waited for a long time and battled through the odds just to look for him. It had not been easy for her to come to his side, but he could not reconcile with her.

When she was very young, he had promised her that he would definitely stay by her side and protect her as she grew up.

In the end, he chose to return to his own country and take up the responsibility that he had to fulfil, so he abandoned her.

When she was very young, he also told her that when she grew up, he wanted her to bring the necklace he had given her and find him.

Now that she finally appeared in front of him, he denied being her Brother Lionel...

This little girl had been clever since she was a child. She was able to see people and things clearly. He expected that she might recognize him when she saw him.

But when she asked him to confirm her doubts, he was still stunned.

When she saw him for the last time, she was less than five years old. Now, more than ten years have passed. How could it not be shocking that she could still recognize him at first glance after more than 10 years?

No one knew how much he wanted to hold her in his arms and tell her that he was her Brother Lionel and that he had been waiting for her all these years.

But the responsibility on his shoulders involved the progress of the entire nation. In the past, he could not do whatever he wanted, and now it was still the same.

He could only wait until he completed the two main tasks at hand and he could completely ensure her safety. Perhaps he would tell her the truth, then.

"Yes, Little Karen, I am your Brother Lionel!” He would say.

"Then I'll leave first." Karen Joy nodded to the President. She walked away without turning back.

She walked away confidently and held her head high. It was as if she did not mind that she recognised the President wrongly.

She knew that she had mistaken him for someone else. This man named Nathaniel Cooper was just the new President of Country A. He had nothing to do with her Brother Lionel.

Because if he were her Brother Lionel, he wouldn’t lie to her face when he met her.

All these while, she had been so sure that her Brother Lionel would never do anything that would make her sad.

When Brother Lionel was by her side, although she was still very young back then, she still remembered clearly how he treated her.
