Marry Me Twice (Kennedy and Charlotte) novel Chapter 5

In the meeting room.

Kennedy entered the room, followed by Charlotte; everyone in the room was astonished to see her behind him.

Everyone knew that Nathan was the only one to serve Kennedy all these years. Now that a woman appeared at his side out of nowhere, everyone was guessing what relationship this woman had with him.

This was not the first time Charlotte worked as an assistant, but she had never witnessed such a grand occasion before. Moore Group’s meeting room was extremely spacious. After all, Moore Group was the top leading group in North City.

As soon as she entered the room, Charlotte felt a strong sense of tension in the room. Feeling the stress, Charlotte could feel her shoulders tensed up unconsciously upon receiving all kinds of gaze from the others as she entered behind Nathan and Kennedy.

When they stopped walking, everyone fixed their gaze on Charlotte.

“President Moore, she is…”

Manfred was Moore Group’s vice president, so it was inevitable that he would join the meeting. At this moment, he felt surprised seeing Charlotte too.

Charlotte grabbed the corner of her shirt anxiously to calm herself down. She gradually raised her head and found a gentle look among all the curious gaze from the others.

It was Manfred.

As both of their eyes met, Manfred gave Charlotte a warm smile and nodded at her.

At this time, Charlotte felt her nervousness eased by his smile, and she puckered a smile at Manfred.

Charlotte thought that Manfred was indeed a gentle and kind person.

Despite it being small and insignificant actions, Kennedy noticed them.

A coldness flashed across his eyes, and he squinted his sharp eyes as he replied, “Care worker.”

“Huh?” Everyone was dumbfounded to hear his answer.

What does he mean by care worker?

Even Charlotte was confused herself.

“President Moore, who did you say she was?”

Kennedy’s pupils were as dark as night. He slightly raised his brow and answered the one who asked the question, “My grandfather has hired a care worker to take care of my daily needs.”

Listening to such mean and awful remarks, Charlotte’s face turned pale gradually and lowered her gaze to look at Kennedy.

I’m here to be your assistant. Since when did I become your care worker?

“Coffee.” While she was still in a daze, Kennedy ordered coldly.

Charlotte was still rooted to the spot. She only reacted to the order when Nathan signaled her, thereupon she quickly left the meeting room to make coffee.

When she came back with the coffee, the meeting had already started. Then, she placed the coffee in front of Kennedy.

After taking a sip, Kennedy frowned and commented, “Too sweet! Another!”

Soon, everyone in the meeting room kept hearing Kennedy’s complaint, requesting her to change the coffee over and over again.

“It’s tasteless!”

“Too hot!”

“Too cold!”

Charlotte went back and forth countless times just because of a cup of coffee. Kennedy had turned the meeting room into a stage to show everyone how he was bullying her.

All kinds of gazes from the others made her feel embarrassed.

Just when she was about to burst in anger, she thought of the Shen Family’s condition. As such, she held back and went out to make another cup.

Thud! The coffee cup was placed heavily on the table, startling everyone in the room.

“Is that all you got? And you think you can be my care worker with that kind of efficiency?”

Charlotte stood at her own position, and her face was pale.

Manfred, who was sitting not far away from them, frowned as he saw this and said, “Kennedy, that’s enough.”

Oh? Is Manfred speaking for her? It seems that this woman is not as simple as I think!

The smile at Kennedy’s lip turned cold: “Are you feeling bad for my care worker? How about I give her to you?”

Charlotte bit her lips, and her fingers trembled.

He’s too mean! Now I know why he agreed to let me stay. He only wanted to insult me!

He probably perceives me as a woman who insists on marrying a rich person at all costs.

That’s why he hates me so much!

Manfred:“Kennedy, why are you like this? After all, she’s still your—”

Before Manfred could expose her identity, Nathan butted in and said coldly, “Vice President Moore, don’t you think you’ve meddled too much? President Moore is just teaching her to make good coffee.”

Manfred seemed like he wanted to speak for Charlotte, but the latter quickly grabbed the chance to talk before he could. “I’ll make another cup of coffee for Young Master Moore.”

With that, she brought the cup and left the meeting room.

One cup, two cups, three cups…

Charlotte had been running back and forth from the meeting room to the pantry during the entire meeting. Kennedy was not satisfied with her coffee throughout, yet she didn’t complain at all.

She was still making coffee even by the time the meeting had ended.

Nathan, who was standing at the side, began to feel bad for her. Seeing that the people in the room had all left, he went to Kennedy’s side and said softly, “Mr. Kennedy, let’s forget about it. I think we’ve taught her a lesson.”

Kennedy sneered:“This kind of woman won’t give up if she doesn’t receive treatment like this.”

He wanted to see how much longer she could endure.
