Chapter 27
Kevin pressed Karen into his arms and gently stroked her back with his big thick palm. "I'm sorry, I'm late."
Karen did not expect that Kevin would appear here at this time. For a moment, her nose felt a little sour, and tears welled up in her eyes.
However, she did not allow herself to show weakness. She looked up at him and smiled. "Didn't you say that you would only be back tomorrow? Why did you come back earlier?"
Kevin could see how she was pretending to be tough, but he didn't say it out loud. He just held on tighter and said, "I came to pick you up and bring you home."
Karen pushed him away and raised her head from his arms. "I, I've hurt someone. I can't go back with you now. Go back to your work. I will be fine."
Charlie's character was quite straightforward. If she were to be locked up for two days, he would no longer be angry and would not make any more trouble for her.
If Kevin took her away at this time, it would be a slap to Charlie's face. Then the consequences would be unthinkable.
Kevin had just assumed the position as director of Innovative Tech. It was still a sensitive period, and his position as a director still needed to be strengthened. If Charlie caused any trouble now, Kevin's future might be ruined.
Karen felt that this was her personal vendetta. She didn't want to involve the blissful Kevin Kyle, let alone get him hurt.
Seeing Kevin's sullen face, Karen pushed him away and said, "Kevin, I'm really fine. You can leave now."
Kevin stared at her with a cold face and asked in a low voice, "Karen, do you know what the word 'husband' means?"
Perhaps in her opinion, "husband" was just a name on her marriage certificate, but for him, "husband" was his lifelong responsibility.
"I know you are my husband." Karen was not in the mood to think about what Kevin wanted to say. She was worried that she would get him in trouble. She pushed him away and said, "Kevin, listen to me now, or something bad will happen."
Kevin narrowed his eyes under his glasses and stopped talking. He picked her up by the waist, turned around, and walked out.
The middle-aged man immediately followed up and said, "Director Kevin, this matter is a grave misunderstanding. If you need anything more from me, please let me know."
Kevin said without looking back, "Chief Campbell, thank you for helping me so much tonight. I'll treat you to dinner some other day."
His words were so pleasant, but the man called "Chief Campbell" was trembling with fear. Cold sweat dripped down his forehead, and he walked in a hurry.
He said, "Director Kevin, I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation for what happened this time."
Kevin did not answer again. He strode over to the car at the entrance with Karen in his arms.
Seeing Kevin carrying Karen into the car, the middle-aged man's expression changed immediately. He was so angry that he picked up a chair and smashed it on the wall. "Summon everyone who was involved in this. No one can get away from this."
The guards did not understand and ventured to ask, "Chief Campbell, that woman has offended Charlie of the Gook family. How can we explain to Charlie if we let her go like this?"
As soon as the guard finished speaking, his face was slapped again.
The middle-aged man shouted, his eyes red with fury, "The Gook Family? In front of that man, he is nothing! That second son of the Gook family doesn't know who he has provoked."

In the VIP ward of the First People's Hospital in California
After listening to Duncan Miller's report, Charlie raised the document in his hand and smashed it on Duncan Miller's face.
Duncan was so afraid that he lowered his head and whispered, "Charlie, that old guy Simon Campbell sent his men to personally welcome that man, and our people could not stop him."
"Simon Campbell personally welcomed this man? Who could have so much power?" Charlie clenched his fist, his eyes were fierce.
Because Simon Campbell was in power throughout California, he had always looked down upon the Gook Family whose main base was in New York.
Charlie could not help but suspect that there was something wrong with the fact that Simon would help this director of such a small technology company.
Duncan trembled and said, "The man's surname is Kyle..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Charlie immediately caught the point. "Do you mean Leo Kyle? Is the Leo Kyle of Rovio Corporation Inc?"
Duncan immediately added, "This man's surname is Kyle. His name is Kevin Kyle, and he is the director of Innovative Tech. He just assumed the position last month. Before that, he ran some businesses abroad, but I didn't find any powerful people behind him."
Hearing that this guy, with the surname Kyle, had nothing to do with Rovio Corporation Inc, Charlie tore the infusion tube in his hand and threw it away. He sneered and said, "This small director of Innovative Tech wants to fight against me. I don't know how I will kill him!"
Duncan said cautiously, "Charlie, you still have injuries on your head, so you can't get angry. Innovative Tech won't run away. It won't take long for you to deal with Kevin Kyle."
"You're right. It's easier for me to deal with Kevin Kyle than to kill an ant." Charlie raised his eyebrows and said proudly, "So, I'll play with him."
Duncan added, "Young Master, I'll send out this news. Innovative Tech is doing some shady deals in secret. All the subsidiaries under the Gook family will stop all businesses with them."
Charlie nodded. "Let's do it well. Don't let anyone get a hold of it."
Duncan said, "Yes, I'll do it right away."
"Duncan..." Charlie stopped him. "What about Rovio Corporation Inc?"
When it came to Rovio Corporation Inc, Duncan looked embarrassed. "Rovio Corporation Inc's Leo Kyle has always been very mysterious. No one knows his whereabouts. There were stories that he is now in California, but it's just a rumor. No one can get any definite evidence."
Charlie stroked his injured forehead, his anger was much more relieved now. "Ask your men to investigate further, you must find out his specific whereabouts. If I can't see him this time, I won’t be able to explain to the elders."
It was true that companies run the Gook family and the Yaleman family were some of the best in the country, but the Kyle family Rovio Corporation Inc was one of the best in the world. The Kyle Family stood at the top of the pyramid.
The Gook family's business had not improved much in the past two years. If they wanted to continue expanding, their only way out was to seek out the Kyle family.
In the past two years, the Gook family had been trying to contact the Kyles. They had been looking for them everywhere, but they still couldn't meet them.
It was rumored that two months ago, the leader of Rovio Corporation Inc, Leo Kyle, was returning to America to expand his businesses. His first choice was to go to California, where he remained in high spirits.
As soon as the news came out, many businessmen gathered in California. They all wanted Leo Kyle, to see him and let him cooperate with them, so they didn't need to worry about making money.
