Now pregnancy of Kathleen was clear, and Kara’s mood improved.
She knew that he wasn’t the kind of man to mess around. Oh, no, he was in bed with her. Although he wouldn’t do that kind of thing, he was still messing around with her.
The most hateful thing was that she was very dependent on him now. Without him holding her at night, she had no sense of security at all.
Kara sometimes wondered, for James’ scheming nature, if this was a trick he had designed.
He deliberately wanted her to get close to him and not want to leave him.
When she was thinking about the problem, she accidentally ate a lot of food. And Libby was still asking her to eat more and drink more.
In the end, she ate until she stuffed herself. She touched her belly and was lazy to move. She lay on the sofa and played with her phone.
James saw that she was lazy again and her sitting posture was not good for her spine. He stood next to the sofa and hooked his finger at her.
When Kara saw that his long finger was hooked at her, she blinked and was somewhat on guard.
“What’s the matter?”
“I want to take you out for a walk.”
A walk?
Am I your puppy?
Kara controlled herself from rolling eyes and turned away from him.
When this man was being snarky, he was the most hateful.
“There are two choices. I will carry you there or you come with me.” He said with a tough attitude.
Kara took a few deep breaths and obediently stood up to follow him go out.
Although it was said to be a stroll, it was actually like walking a dog.
He silently walked in front. She walked behind him. To keep up with his footsteps, she had to run a little. She had no time to play with her phone.
“James, slow down!”
She resigned stuffed the phone into her pocket, ran to his side, and held his big hand.
James glanced at the hand that was being held by the woman. His gaze moved up and landed on her beautiful little face.
“Slow down for what?”
“Wait for me. Every step your long legs take, I have to chase after you two or three steps. This is too unfair.” Kara grumbled.
Weren’t his long legs tired? Normally, when she followed him, she had to run quickly or she would be left behind.
“Kara, no one is gonna stop to wait for you.”
Suddenly he uttered a sentence of philosophical thinking.
Kara looked at him in suspicion. But her hand did not loosen.
“I know. No one in this world will wait for another person. But James, you are different.”
“Why?”
James raised his eyebrows in surprise. What was different about him?
Most of the time, he was busy with work, and he paid all his attention to work. But she did not understand much about his work. He seldom took the initiative to speak when they were talking.
She was the one trying her best to maintain the conversations all the time.
However, he did not understand many of the things she said. As a result, most of the time, she was the one talking and he was listening.
He did not feel irritated, but frustrated.
His life was like a plain cloth that was evened out. And there was nothing else on the cloth apart from business documents.
Ever since she appeared, a beautiful flower appeared on the plain cloth that was filled with black and white documents. He couldn’t help looking at her.
“Why am I different?”
“Because you’re James, you are my boyfriend. So, I can hold your hand and let you wait for me.”
She revealed a bit of coquetry of a little girl. She was playful and cunning.
James’ expression was indifferent. His brown eyes were deep in thought as he turned to look at her.
“Why your boyfriend has to wait for you? You can’t follow me and throw a tantrum. Kara, you have to learn to protect yourself, understand?”
What he remembered was her injury these few times, and he felt a burst of nervousness in his heart.
He thought he was quite strong. But these times, he felt that his heart was extremely fragile.
As long as saw her tightly closed eyes, he would be disturbed, angry, irritated.
The corners of Kara’s mouth stiffened.
It felt like the two of them were not in the same channel.
Every time she wanted to talk to him about some easy topics, he always liked to teach her a lesson with a straight face.
Sometimes when she talked about some serious topics, he would make a move on her and say all kinds of things that pushed the boundaries.
This might be the difference between men and women, but Kara was still a little angry.
She shook off his hand and walked forward alone.
“Why didn’t I protect myself? I will work hard for things within my ability.”
When drawing, she was working hard.
However, she was unable to predict the unexpected situations she would encounter.
At that time, in the small black room, she was frightened by that woman. When she was attacked by that woman, she also fought back. However, she did not expect that woman to be so fierce and desperately scratched her.
She was half shocked and half in pain before fainting.
James sensed the change in her emotions. He pinched his forehead resignedly. He killed the conversation again.
He took a few steps to her side, hugged her tightly, and rubbed her into his arms.
“Kara, don’t be afraid. I’m here.”
Kara also did not avoid it, her arms wrapped around his waist, her hands tightly grasping.
“James, if you don’t wait for me, I will run away. You will also come to find me, right?”
“You are mine. Where else can you run to, huh?”
James did not let go. He held her hand and led her forward.
Occasionally, Kara could still hear the man mocking her, but she did not care at all.
This was the way he spoke. If she wanted to argue with him, he would be so angry that he would vomit three liters of blood.
Therefore, she only took his sarcasm as a compliment.
After walking for a while to digest the food, Kara knew that James still had to go back to work, so she did not disturb him.
When the two returned to the villa, she went to the study room with the computer and sat on the sofa to study.
There were some public lessons for art teachers on the Internet, and she found some information.
All of a sudden, he heard the speech of a foreign American expert. It was very interesting. She wanted to look for other related videos, but they were in English without subtitles. This gave Kara a headache.
James was having a video call with someone. The other party was wearing a black sweatshirt and was sitting upright, reporting the situation he had investigated.
“Sir, Salay disappeared a week after your mother passed away. She met the Marshalls when she disappeared.
“At that time, Jordon hid her somewhere else. It should be not long after his wife passed away that he carried his youngest daughter back to the Marshalls. Then Salay was locked up in the attic.”
James narrowed his cold eyes. Could Salay be related to Jordon and Hannah?
“Why did Jordon lock her up?”
“I’m still investigating. It has been years ago, and many clues have been blurred. I think there are still many things that I have to ask the person involved.”
The tone of John was stern.
“Yes, the Marshalls should be hiding something. That was why they locked her up. Nolan is busy with work and may not be able to care so much. Send two more people to secretly guard Salay.”
John nodded and understood what he meant.
Nolan followed behind James to work as a personal bodyguard. The work he dealt with was generally on the surface, while John was hidden in the dark and dealt with relatively obscure things with James.
Suddenly, James heard a woman scream. Then, a pink ball rushed into his arms. He hugged her in shock.
On the other end of the computer, John did not know that James was married.
Seeing that James was pushed down by a strange woman, he was very scared and worried.
