Chapter 26
- Hickeys on Kara’s Neck
“I think you’d better wait here. I don’t want a troublesome girl like you. to interfere with my performance on the field,” Frank suggested while nodding stiffly. He also didn’t dare look at Kara, afraid of being asked to explain what he had just done.
“Yes, you are right. I’ll definitely be a burden if I go there.”
Kara tried to nod, but failed. The warmth of Frank’s lips on her neck. seemed to have disrupted her nerve pathways.
Without additional words, Frank got out of his luxury car. He even chose to wear protective clothing outside. He and Kara really needed distance. Otherwise, awkwardness could paralyze them.
As the CEO left, Kara immediately took a mirror from her bag. She wanted to know how her neck was doing. As soon as she saw the location of the bee sting, she gasped.
“Why are there three?”
There was a new spot near the two bee sting marks. It’s the same red
color, but it’s not swollen since it didn’t come from bees. Frank Harper was the creator.
While grimacing, Kara took the band-aid that was always available in her bag. No one should see the CEO’s imprint on her neck. She could be accused of being a seductive secretary, even though Frank himself took advantage of her.
Meanwhile, outside the limousine, Frank had just finished putting on his attributes. His brows furrowed. He was still thinking about the evidence of his wildness that he accidentally painted on Kara’s neck.
“Boss, do we need to give Miss Secretary some medicine?” Philip
uuncu.
“What for? It was just a small sting.” Frank pretended not to care.
“The beekeeper suggested that. Some people are sensitive to bee stings. Miss Secretary could have a fever, what’s more….” Philip remembered how enthusiastically Frank sucked on Kara’s neck.
“What?”
After stifling a laugh, Philip shook his head. “Nothing, Sir.” He couldn’t wait to tell Jeremy the hot news.
An hour passed, Frank finally returned to the limousine. Kara was completely unaware that the CEO was sitting next to her. She fell asleep with her mouth slightly open.
‘Look at this geeky girl! She isn’t graceful at all. How could I be attracted to her? My hormones must be out of balance.’
Suddenly, the limousine started moving. Kara’s head shifted to match the direction of her movement and hit Frank’s shoulder.
Frank spontaneously raised his arms, keeping Kara from slipsing on his slippery suit. As soon as he realized his attention to ti
grimaced.
‘What is wrong with me?”
Furrowing his eyebrows, Frank glared at Kara. However, as he was about to clear his throat, his intentions were shattered. He just realized that the girl’s face was very red, like someone with a fever.
“Kara, are you okay?”
Kara didn’t answer. Her brows furrowed deeper.
Frank was moved to touch her forehead. As he found the burning
skin, he sighed in annoyance.
“This girl is really troublesome. How can his lover bear it?”
Slowly, Frank shifted towards Kara: After arranging the girl’s head in a comfortable position, he sat quietly.
Along the way, he occasionally checked Kara’s condition. At another time, he reviewed what they previously did.
‘Did the sting wound become infected because of my action?
Because of that, she has a fever?’
For the first time, Frank Harper felt guilty about causing misfortune to others.

When Kara opened her eyes, the limousine had stopped. With an innocent face, she straightened up and stretched her muscles.
“Did you sleep well?”
Kara was shocked. Frank Harper was already sitting beside her, busy with a tablet displaying a data table. A strand of long hair rested on the man’s shoulder. Kara sighed in disbelief as she saw it.
‘I leaned on his shoulder?’
“Sorry, Sir. I really didn’t mean to. My head feels dizzy. So, I and I didn’t know….” With one swift movement, Kara picked hair on the CEO’s shoulder. “The point is I didn’t mean to burden y
“If you didn’t want to burden me, you should have woken up an hour ago.”
Kara’s eyes grew wider. She looked outside. Apparently, they had returned to the mansion.
“Sorry, Sir. Are your shoulders sore? Should I massage them?”
“No,” Frank replied coldly. “You just go home. You’re useless today.
Kara’s worry suddenly turned into astonishment. Instead of taking a pay cut, she actually got dispensation? Was Frank serious about changing his image to become a good leader?
“Can I go home?”
Suddenly, a taxi stopped not far from the limousine. A moment later, a waiter came down carrying lots of shopping bags.
“Looks like it’s your lucky day. Hurry up and take that taxi. You can save the energy to walk to the front gate.”
Kara scowled. She agreed about saving energy, but not about lucky day. She didn’t move as Frank enjoyed her neck earlier. The Perverted -Demon was the lucky one, not her, especially with the bee stings that
made her body tingle.
“Okay. Thank you, Sir. I’ll take my leave. I’ll be back here tomorrow morning.”
“No need. I want to take a rest tomorrow. Come on Monday. I wake, up at five in the morning. Don’t be late or you’ll regret it.”
Kara gaped in disbelief. Was she allowed to take a day off? That meant she could take the children on a picnic tomorrow!
“Thank you, Sir. Thank you!”
After grabbing her bag, Kara rushed into the taxi. She left without. knowing what really happened.
“Young Master seems to have fallen in love with Miss Secretary.”
“That’s true, but he’s reluctant to admit it. He even asked Mrs. Black to pretend to come home from shopping.”
While the guards gossiped about him, Frank kept observing the taxi Kara was in. After the car he ordered disappeared from sight, he got

“Hello, Little Angels.’
Seeing Kara spread her arms in front of the entrance, Louis and Emily’s eyes lit up. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“Mommy?” They ran to greet their mother’s embrace.
“Why are you coming home so early, Mommy? Isn’t that evil CEO angry?” Louis asked.
“He’s not that bad, Little Bee.” Kara stroked her son’s head. “The proof is Mommy can be with you two now.
“Mommy’s body is hot. Are you sick, Mommy?” Emily pressed her mother’s palm to her chubby cheek.
“And what’s stuck around Mommy’s neck?” Louis looked up at the band-aid.
Kara suddenly blushed remembering the cause. After entering the living room and sitting on the sofa, she tried to distract her chi
Do you know where Mommy went this morning?”
“Is the garden beautiful?”
“Car exhibition?”
Kara shook her head and smiled meaningfully. “Bee yard.”
The twins rounded their mouths. Their eyes sparkled.
“Really? Did you see the box where they built the hive, Mommy?”
“Mommy met the queen bee?”
Kara showed the photo she had taken before falling asleep. The twins were immediately stunned.
“Wow, it’s so wide. There must be lots of colonies there.”
“Did Mommy get stung on the neck by the bee?” Emily raised her forefinger.
Kara nodded. “Yes. I wasn’t careful when I got out of the car. But your don’t need to worry. Mommy is much better.”
“You, Naughty Bee! How dare you sting Mommy?” Emily scolded with. pursed lips and hands on her hips.
“If I had been there, I would have killed them with smoke.” Louis gripped his right fist as if it were a bee he wanted to crush.
