Chapter 157
Karen Daly's hand, which was holding the pregnancy test stick, was shaking slightly. It took her a long time to suppress her excitement.
No, this couldn't confirm that she definitely was pregnant. She had to go to the hospital for a check- up. She had to be 100% sure before telling Kevin Kyle.
Karen Daly declined Kevin Kyle's offer to drive her to the studio because she had to go to the hospital first.
When she arrived at the hospital, it was finally Karen Daly's turn after a long wait. After the examination, the doctor told her personally that she was pregnant. Karen Daly was so excited that tears of happiness flowed down her cheeks.
"Mom, have you seen that? I finally have my own child, and it's your grandson. If you were here, you would be very happy for me, right?"
She stood at the entrance of the hospital, looking up at the sky and mouthing something silently, as if she could see that her mother was smiling at her.
Karen Daly was still immersed in joy when her phone suddenly rang. She picked it up and took a look. It was an unfamiliar number. After picking it up, the caller addressed himself as Grandpa Kyle's assistant and asked her out to meet him.
Knowing that it was Grandpa Kyle's assistant, Karen Daly did not think much about it.
She called Faye Reed and told her that she would go to the studio later than usual, and then she took a taxi to the appointed place.
However, it never occurred to her that Grandpa Kyle was there when she arrived at the appointed place.
Didn't he just go back to the United States yesterday?
"Why did he suddenly appear here? Why did he ask me to meet him alone?"
A bad feeling was rising in Karen Daly's heart. She clenched her fists and said nervously, "Grandpa..."
"Sit down." Grandpa Kyle pointed to the empty seat opposite him. His tone was the same as usual, but the expression on his face was very serious.
"Grandpa, what can I do for you?" Karen Daly swallowed nervously and asked cautiously.
"Have a look at these first." As soon as Grandpa Kyle finished his words, his assistant immediately handed over a document.
Karen Daly glanced at Grandpa Kyle and started reading the contents uneasily. She stopped reading after going through the first page. She looked up at Grandpa Kyle and asked, "Grandpa, are you investigating me?"
Grandpa Kyle said very calmly, "I didn't investigate you. Matthew already sent someone to investigate about these long before you were even married."
"He did that?" Karen Daly's heart trembled slightly when she suddenly heard the news. Her heart seemed to be tied by a rope, and she could not breathe.
However, she gave it a thought again, Kevin Kyle and her were strangers back then, he knew nothing about her. Since she was the one who was marrying him, it was not surprising for him to check her background.
Although he found out about her ugly past, he still chose to believe her. There was nothing to worry about.
"Continue reading the document." Grandpa Kyle said again. His voice was calm as always, like the caring and kind grandfather he always was.
Karen Daley doesn't want to continue. she took a deep breath and said, "Grandpa, I don't know why you want me to see these?"
"Please read the documents completely. Then we'll talk." Grandpa Kyle pointed at the documents, his bright eyes fell on her face.
"I know everything in this document. There's no need for me to continue reading." Karen Daly quietly clenched her fists and said, "Just tell me what you want to say."
The information was about her past, her family. Anyway, everyone knew about these ugly things, including Kevin Kyle. There was no point in reading them now.
However, Grandpa Kyle insisted and said, "You don't have to read the first few pages. But take a look at the last few pages. We'll talk about it after you finish reading them."
Since Grandpa Kyle insisted on it, Karen Daly was curious about the contents of the last few pages, so she started flipping through the documents again.
When Karen Daly understood the contents of the document clearly, her pink face turned pale in an instant. It was as pale as chalk, and she felt as fragile as glass.
No! No! No!
"This can't be true! It can't be true!"
She closed her eyes and didn't want to look at it anymore. She wished that there was a problem with her eyes, that she was mistaken.
However, the reality was cruel. When she calmed down slightly, her eyes fell on the document again, and what she saw was the same as before. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
Her mother, the mother who had never lived a good life, was not only beaten up by Samuel Daly, that beast, but also—
D*mn it!
Samuel Daly, that despicable animal, how could he do such a shameless thing?
For the sake of money, power, and reputation, he even gave his wife away.
Karen Daly bit her lips tightly and clenched her hands into fists. She could hardly suppress her raging emotions brewing inside her.
Just as she was trying hard to stay calm, she heard Grandpa Kyle say, "Karen, our Kyle family never cared about the family status of our daughter-in-law, but we care about the purity of the background. I know that you can't choose how you were born and you're not responsible for what your mother had gone through. But you have to stand in Kevin's shoes."
Karen Daly bit her lips and looked at Grandpa Kyle. She found no words to answer him, but she straightened her back and slightly raised her head.
Even if her mother had experienced such a thing, even if her family history was doomed, she still had her pride and self-esteem. She wouldn't accept anybody looking down on her, not even Grandpa Kyle.
If Kevin Kyle knew about this and yet chose to be with her anyway, that was already enough evidence that he was willing to accept her wholeheartedly.
There was no reason for her to give up easily when he did accept her.
Grandpa Kyle continued, "Matthew took over Rovio at the age of twenty-two. During the past six or seven years, he spent almost all his time on work. He never had the chance to know or spend time with a lot of women. He only married you because he didn't know there were better women out there; he didn't know how to compare. I know this there is no love in this marriage."
"So what if that's the case? Even if there is no love, as long as we both get along well, we can still live a happy life." Karen Daly straightened her back and said firmly.
"He knows your past. The reason why he was willing to marry you was that he's sympathetic to you, isn't it? When he meets the one he loves, you will be nothing."
Without letting Karen Daly intercept, Grandpa Kyle continued, "If you really want what's the best for him, if you really want him to remember you in a good light, the only way is to leave him, that is what's best for the both of you."
"Grandpa Kyle, what do you mean by him taking over the Rovio at the age of 22?" After a long time, Karen Daly finally found her voice.
"What do you mean?" Grandpa Kyle raised his eyebrows and stared at Karen Daly, and said, "Don't you know that he is the head of Rovio now?"
Karen Daly felt like she was losing her mind, and her face became paler and paler. After what felt like an eternity, she finally said, "You mean, he's Leo Kyle?"
Grandpa Kyle said, "That's his full name."
