Chapter 15 Drunk Woman

　　Karen returned at eight o'clock in the evening. When she came back, Kevin was busy in the study.

　　The staff of the company was all relaxing, but the boss was the only one who was still busy with work. No wonder he could reach such a high position at a young age.

　　Kevin put down the documents in his hand and looked up at her. "You're drunk."

　　Karen nodded with a red face. "I drank a little."

　　She didn't drink "just a little". If she hadn't been drinking and practicing with clients over the past three years, she would have already been drunk.

　　Kevin frowned slightly and said, "Drinking is harmful to your body, especially for women. Try not to drink so much in the future."

　　"Well, what Director Kevin says is right. I will drink as little as possible in the future except for when it is necessary." Seeing Kevin frown, Karen stood straight like a child who had done something wrong. " I will go back to my room first. You should rest early."

　　After that, she ran back to her room.

　　She could smell the trace of alcohol on her body, and not only Kevin hate this kind of smell, but she also hated it. She decided to go to the backyard to bathe in the hot springs.

　　Alone in the hot spring, she felt very comfortable and relaxed. It was better to bathe in a pool alone than with a group of people.

　　Karen sat in the pool and looked up at the sky. Today was the 15th day of the lunar month, and the moon hanging in the sky was bright and round.

It was said that a full-moon night was a night perfect for a family reunion, but her heart was empty and lonely.

　　A man without a home was like a tree without roots, a kite without its string. No matter where she went, her heart would not be at ease.

　　"Dad, mom..." Karen gently called the people she had missed for a long time. Her eyes were teary. "It's been three years. Have you ever missed me?"

　　She was the dear daughter of her parents. But since that fateful incident, they had abandoned her and let her go alone to another city. It's been three years since anyone thought of her.

　　Three years. Sometimes Karen felt like it was just a blink of an eye, but sometimes she felt like it's been a lifetime.

　　Over the years, she didn't pay attention to news on her family on purpose, because she was afraid that what she saw would refrain her from forgetting her pain.

　　However, would it be that easy to stop caring by simply avoiding them?

　　She shook her head with a wry smile. In actual fact, the scar in her heart felt like a malignant tumor, torturing her from time to time.

　　Now, although she had married a man who was considerate and excellent in every aspect, her drifting heart still could not find a sense of security and belonging.

　　Perhaps the after-effects of the wine were too strong, as she had drunk while thinking, that she simply felt that her head was getting dizzier and dizzier until she lost consciousness and knew nothing afterward.

　　Kevin finished with all his documents for the day and went back to the room. The lights in the room were still on, but he did not see Karen.

　　He waited for a while, but before he could see her return, he took out his phone and called her. After the call was connected, her phone rang inside the room.

　　Kevin immediately thought that she must have gone to the hot spring. After drinking, she had gone to the hot spring, and just in case...

　　He immediately went downstairs to the hot spring in the backyard. When he arrived, he saw that her head was facing the water surface as if she was a chick eating rice and her head just plunged into the water.

　　Kevin rushed into the hot spring quickly and picked her up. He was a little angry. He was angry because she had carelessly fallen asleep while soaking in the hot spring.

　　If he didn't arrive timely, she would have lost her life.

　　His face was cold, but Karen, in his arms, did not realize his anger at all. She instinctively rubbed her face against Kevin's warm body. The water from her hair wet his chest.

　　Kevin's face darkened when he carried Karen back to the room. Then came another problem.

　　It was impossible for him to put her under the covers while she was wearing a wet swimsuit.

　　Kevin carried her into the bathroom, preparing to shower her.

　　As he poured water onto her, she fell into his arms unconsciously.

　　Her graceful figure and smooth skin seemed to be quietly tempting him.
