My Husband, Warm The Bed
Chapter 1286

Kevin glared at Karen and said discontentedly, "Karen, I am not putting on an act."

"Okay, okay. You're not." No matter how cold his expression was, Karen was not afraid of him. She took the initiative to hold his hand and said, "Don't be angry, Director Kevin." Kevin glared at her again. "I'm not angry."

"Look at your haughty expression. I thought you were mad at me."

Kevin was speechless.

Karen didn't tease him anymore. If she continued to tease him, he would probably be angry for real.

"Kevin, you have to change your attitude toward your son-in-law. If you still treat Lionel so coldly, aren't you afraid that he might lash out at Karen behind your back?" "He wouldn't dare to!"

"It's not that he doesn't dare to, it's just that he doesn't want to. That's because his love for our daughter is not less than yours. You are actually satisfied with Lionel, why couldn't you treat him nicer? Would you be happy if he decided to ignore you one day?" Karen kept trying to persuade Kevin. However, no matter how much she tried, Kevin's attitude toward Lionel didn't change at all.

"I'm not satisfied with him at all!" Karen Joy was so young when her heart was stolen by that guy. And now, Lionel had even taken her away. How could Kevin be satisfied with Lionel when he could only see his daughter once a week?

"You..." Karen shook her head. She knew that she could not change his mind. "You can stay here and wait for her. I'll go to the kitchen to check on Mia's favorite meatballs and Karen's favorite strawberry jam." Kevin grabbed Karen's hand and said, "There are people working in the kitchen. Take a rest and don't tire yourself out."

Karen let out a sigh, "I don't need to cook normally, but I have to help out today. Mom is gone, but we have to maintain this tradition. I'm thinking that when Jayden brings his wife home, I will teach her to cook some of the favorite dishes of the family. When everyone gets together, we can cook by ourselves. We can even pass this tradition on to the next generation."

"Not everyone has the same thoughts as you. You should just stay with me and not care about other people's affairs." Kevin didn't want Karen to do so much work. He only hoped that she would keep him accompanied for a longer time.

"Anyway, Mom and I have the same thoughts. We will see what happens in the future. If Jayden's wife is willing to learn, I will teach her. I won't force her if she is not." Karen felt that this was a good custom that should be passed on to future generations. However, she could understand if the younger generation was reluctant to accept it.

There was a look of displease on Kevin's face. "You're occupied with your work on weekdays. And on weekends, you're busy taking care of everyone. When will you have time for me?"

"Well, I'm yours every night," Karen replied with a smile.

Kevin remained silent.

Suddenly, something struck Karen. "Mia and the boys did not tell me what Jayden's wife looks like. What do you think she's like? Gentle, adorable, or seductive? Oh right, Kevin, what kind of girls do men like?" "Karen, can't you see me when I'm standing right in front of you?" Kevin said angrily.

Karen could not respond for a moment. "What do you mean?"

"Dad, Mom..."

Karen Joy had just arrived.

"Our daughter is here. Let's put this matter aside. Stop pulling a long face."

Seeing her parents, Karen Joy ran over and said, "Mom and Dad, are you two waiting for me here?"

Kevin was obviously waiting for Karen Joy, but he pulled a long face and snorted, "Hmph..."

"You're here, baby!" Karen ignored Kevin and hugged Karen Joy with a smile. "It's only been a week since we last saw each other, but you look even more beautiful now, baby!"

"Stop praising me, Mom! I might fall in love with myself." Karen Joy then looked at Kevin. She had no fear when she saw his gloomy face. Holding his arm, she said, "Dad, you must have missed me, haven't you?"

"I've got to continue with my work. Go and accompany your grandfather." After that, Kevin turned around and walked away, leaving Karen and Karen Joy behind. "Karen, your father was waiting for you here, but he seems to be angry because of me. Don't take it to heart."

Karen Joy replied with a smile, "I know that he was waiting for me and he was just putting on an act. Well, Dad has always been stubborn. Don't forget that I was raised by him. I know him very well. But Mom, why is Dad mad at you?"

"I don't know either. It was so sudden. He's been like this all these years. Sometimes, he's particularly petty. I'm used to it." Karen shrugged. Only then did she notice that Karen Joy was here without Lionel. "Karen Joy, where's Lionel?"

At the mention of Lionel, Karen Joy could not hide the happiness on her face. "Lionel dropped me off at the entrance and went to buy something for me."

"We have everything at home. What is he buying?"

"I don't have a good appetite lately. So Lionel went out to buy some sour candies for me."

"You're having a loss of appetite and have cravings for sour food..." All of a sudden, Karen was struck with a moment of realization. She wrapped her arms around Karen Joy in excitement and said, "Karen Joy are you pregnant?"

"Pregnant?" Karen Joy immediately shook her head. "Mom, you are thinking too much. Lionel doesn't want a child for the time being."

Since it was related to her precious daughter, Karen was determined to know the reason.

"He doesn't want a child?"

Karen Joy nodded and said, "Lionel said that the company has been developing rapidly in recent years, so he has to handle a lot of matters personally. With that, he has no time to take care of a child and wishes to take things slowly. However, I know that he thinks that I am still young. He doesn't want me to be a mother at such a young age and lose my freedom."

After listening to her words, Karen was even more satisfied with Lionel. "Karen, he is willing to do anything for you because he loves you. You should also be considerate of him."

"Mom, I know Lionel loves me, but I can't rule out the possibility that he doesn't want children because he is afraid."

Karen asked with concern, "Do you think his family has affected him?"

Karen Joy nodded again, "His family has indeed affected him greatly. I believe that he was scarred by his family affairs. That's why he didn't want kids... But no matter what the reason is, I respect his decision and will wait for him. Even if he decided not to have any children forever, I'm fine with it."

Lionel was born in a family that was different from ordinary ones. The education he received was also different from others. There was no love in his family, and only power struggles... Even though he had completely stepped away from his family, some thoughts had already been deeply rooted in his mind and it was very difficult for him to change them.
