My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 916

If possible, Nathaniel Cooper could deal with those matters through a video conference. Matters which had to be dealt with in person, he would ask for his secretaries to postpone it to the next day. He could then attend to these issues when he was back in the office.

In order to spend more time with Karen Joy Kyle, Nathaniel was doing his best to allocate his time more efficiently.

Nathaniel had insisted on staying at her home to accompany her. Karen Joy felt flustered, thinking of the sacrifice he was making for her. She felt guilty and began to blame herself.

She had always wanted to share some of his burdens. However, not only did she not help him, but was holding him back now. How could she not blame herself?

"Brother Lionel, you can carry on with your work. You don't have to accompany me. I have a lot of friends in Coast City, and they can always spend time with me. Just now, a friend called and asked me if I want to go for dinner with them."

As she was speaking to Nathaniel, Karen Joy turned to the coat rack and handed him his coat. "Brother Lionel, go and deal with your work."

"Your friends are your friends, but I am different." Finally, Nathaniel raised his head from the pile of documents, held Karen Joy's hand in his palm, and tightened his grip, "Karen, I'm staying here not because you need me, but because I need you. Do you understand that?"

Karen Joy was at a loss for words.

She didn't understand.

It was obvious that he was here because of her. How could he twist the scenario around now?

Looking at the silly look on her face, Nathaniel couldn't help but pull her head down and kiss her forehead. "Karen, you can never imagine how important you are to me."

"I've already imagined myself as a core part of your heart! I am so important that no one can compare to me." Occasionally, the playful Karen Joy would indulge herself in some narcissism.

But yet, she was not really trying to be narcissistic, she just trusted Brother Lionel that much. She believed that he felt the same way and that she was indeed the most important person in his heart.

"Yes, that's right." Nathaniel pinched her face, picked up the cup of coffee that she made, and took a sip. "It tastes good."

In fact, she had burned the coffee in the pot earlier and added too much sugar to it. It tasted very strange. However, Nathaniel did not complain about it and even asked her to get him another cup.

Since Nathaniel wanted more, Karen Joy was happy. She leaned towards him and said excitedly, "Brother Lionel, if you like the coffee I made, I'll make coffee for you every day."

"Okay." Nathaniel nodded and handed a document to Karen Joy. "You're good at languages, how about you proofread this text for me?"

"Brother Lionel, that shouldn't be right." Karen Joy did not reach out to take over the document. "All the documents that you have here are national secrets and highly confidential. It's not appropriate for me, as an outsider to read them."

The leaking of confidential documents could be a huge matter. If those masterminds who wanted to schemed against Nathaniel find out about it, they could make use of this matter to stir up more trouble.

Karen Joy had learned to be cautious from her father. Before her identity could be publicly clarified, she had better not touch these sensitive documents, so as not to bring unnecessary trouble for Brother Lionel.

"These are not confidential documents," Nathaniel said.

He was just worried that she would be too bored, so he deliberately picked up some unimportant documents for her to proofread to help her pass time.

Ring, ring, ring—

Nathaniel's work phone suddenly rang.
