Nathaniel Cooper's tone when he spoke always appeared a little mellow. When he consoled her, he had a similar tone too.
His voice sounded so pleased to hear that she couldn't control herself. In addition to his kind words, her steel heart was instantly softened.
At this moment, when Karen Joy Kyle heard his words, all the pain, all the wounds, and all the grievances disappeared in an instant.
It turned out that her Brother Lionel didn't dislike her, nor did he think that she was causing trouble for him. The real reason he sent her back was that he loved her and cared about her.
He felt sorry for her!
He cared for her!
Suddenly, she had forgotten about the pain in her body and her heart. She was so excited that she was floating on cloud nine.
She had long forgotten that she told herself that as long as he did admit that he was Brother Lionel, she would definitely ignore him.
She wiped her tears and said playfully, "You are not my brother Lionel. How do you know that my Brother Lionel will feel sorry for me?"
She wanted to see how he would respond to this.
Why couldn't he just admit that he was her Brother Lionel? She would be so happy if that happened.
Nathaniel reached out his hand and gently wiped away her tears away. He stroked her little head and said in a softer tone, "Do you still remember what I said before? I also have someone I like."
"Of course I remember." Because the person he liked was her. How could she not remember what he said?
Karen Joy blushed a little. Was he going to finally reconcile with her?
Hoping that he might admit that he was her Brother Lionel soon, Karen Joy became so excited and nervous that she felt butterflies all over her stomach.
He added, "If the person I like is sick or injured, I will feel sorry for her and worry about her. If your Brother Lionel is really as good as you say he is, then he will certainly be sad if you get hurt."
He even said "your Brother Lionel"!
Karen Joy just looked at him coldly. He was obviously her Brother Lionel, but he still pretended to be serious. Anyway, she knew that he was worried about her.
She hugged him and rubbed her face against his shirt, wiping away the tears on her face. "Mr. President, you are right. My Brother Lionel loves me so much. If I were sick, he would be very sad."
"Then do you know what to do now?" He pushed her away from his arms and held her shoulder instead. "Little girl, when you're alone, you have to take care of yourself more. Don't let those who care about you, worry about you, understand?"
"Alright, I know. I will eat well and take good care of myself. I won't let my Brother Lionel worry about me." As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly approached him and kissed his face with her pink lips.
Her lips were soft and warm, and it felt similar to her kisses when she was young.
At the moment when her lips touched him, Nathaniel felt that gush of blood rushing through his head. He wanted to hold her in his arms to kiss her.
But... fortunately, he controlled himself well and promptly realized that he was not her Brother Lionel at this moment. He could not do anything that he wanted to do to her.
Something wasn't right!
Nathaniel suddenly realized that this girl was kissing a man that wasn't her brother Lionel.
She was kissing a man that wasn't her Brother Lionel!
Nathaniel frowned, and his face turned dark. The jealousy in his heart was overwhelming.
Damn it!
