Second Marriage novel Chapter 312

He did not take the divorce agreement before, but he took it out today, which showed that he had made his decision and it would not be changed again!

But Charlotte couldn’t figure it out!

It was just a party. Why did he care so much? Even if the party was really important, he would not be so angry and even gave her the divorce agreement.

What was going on here?

She had to ask Kennedy about it!

“Mrs. Moore, please take my advice. We don’t want to see you separate like this!”

Charlotte did not speak or answer Nathan.

She did not believe that Kennedy would not be angry anymore in a few days. She wanted to deal with it right now. If the cold war continued, it would become worse.

Maybe Kennedy would still be angry after a week.

Or he would grow angrier with time.

“Mrs. Moore...” Several guards also came to persuade her.

Charlotte said, “You don’t have to say anything. I have my own plan.”

She was really stubborn. Her condition could not bear it, but she insisted. Nathan persuaded her for a long time, but Charlotte did not change her mind. Nathan could only find Rebecca.

When Rebecca arrived, she saw Charlotte standing there. Charlotte looked even thinner in the light of the street lamp. Rebecca was so distressed that she went forward and called out, “Mrs. Moore.”

“Rebecca......” Charlotte saw her and her eyes moved.

“I have the same idea as Nathan. Mr. Kennedy is in a rage now. Even if you really stand here all night, it really won’t help anything. Why don’t you come back? It is the same anyway.”

Charlotte looked at her. “Even you are here to persuade me?”

“I do not want to persuade you, but the situation is like this. I heard from Nathan that you are going to wait here all night. If anything happened, wouldn’t you suffer? But Mr. Kennedy does not know it. Even if you suffer, he doesn’t feel anything.”

Charlotte did not speak. She just stared in front of her in silence and then said, “I want to wait here. It has nothing to do with whether he is willing to come out to see me or not. I broke my word tonight, even if I wait here all night, I deserve it.”

She dropped her eyes.

“So, I’m not just waiting for him, I’m punishing myself for my mistake today, you know?”

Rebecca was stunned and could not say a word anymore.

If that was what in Charlotte’s mind, it would be officious for her to say a more word.

Thinking of this, Rebecca took a deep look at her and said, “Do you have to do this? Will you have no regrets?”

“No regrets.”

“Ok!” Rebecca nodded, “I will not persuade you again and I will tell Nathan not to persuade you.”

Hearing this, Charlotte gratefully looked at her and said, “Thank you.”

Rebecca turned to leave, but Nathan hurried after her, “What’s wrong with you? I asked you to persuade her to leave, not to...”

“You’ve heard it all. It’s no use trying to persuade her. Besides, she’s made up her mind already, and it’s no use any of us persuading her. We can’t do anything about her. Let’s see if we can do something about Mr. Kennedy. Stay outside and keep an eye on Mrs. Moore. If there is anything wrong with her, take care of her.”

“I...”

Rebecca left, leaving Nathan there. Nathan took a look at Charlotte.

Well, so her be.

As Rebecca said, once there was something wrong, he would act immediately.

Time passed minute by minute. Charlotte had been standing, and Nathan had been staring at her.

Charlotte did not know how long she had been standing until midnight, when the temperature was lower. Even men wearing coats felt the chill, and unconsciously hugged their arms.

And Charlotte was wearing a sleeveless skirt. The sea breeze got into her dress and she must be freezing.

Nathan turned to pour a bottle of hot water, and then went to Charlotte.

“Take a drink of hot water, Mrs. Moore.”

Charlotte took a look at him and her pink lips moved.

“I know you admit your mistake, but if you fall down, you can’t see Mr. Kennedy... For your health’s sake, please drink it.”

It made sense. Charlotte smiled at him and took the bottle, “Thank you.”

When she reached for the water, her body swayed and she almost fell off.

Fortunately, Nathan helped her with a quick hand, “Mrs. Moore, are you all right?”

Charlotte supported herself and shook her head, “I am ok.”

After seeing her stand steadily, Nathan let go of her. Charlotte drank a few of hot water and she was not as cold as before.

“I’m much better, thank you.” Charlotte smiled at Nathan and handed the bottle back to him.

Actually, most of her body was numb. She had underestimated the coldness of the night. Although it was not yet winter, she was really cold now, not only physically, but also mentally.

It was so cold.

Kennedy...

Was he still unwilling to see her after she had been standing so long?

Or didn’t he have no idea she was waiting for him? Or would he not come out to see her even if he knew?

Because tonight she had made him wait for her all night, and she didn’t show up, so... he was getting even with her now.

Suddenly there was a clap of thunder in the sky. Lightning flashed across the sky and startled everyone.

Nathan raised his head and said, “No, it’s probably going to rain. Go to the door and take shelter there, Mrs. Moore.”

Take shelter?

Charlotte blinked her eyes and raised her head to look at the lightning sky.

There were no stars, just as there was darkness in her heart.

Was it going to rain?

Nathan looked at her for a while and felt that he could not persuade her, so he ran toward the inside.

He was walking so fast that Charlotte had no time to stop him. Soon after he ran out, the rain suddenly began to fall.

“Mrs. Moore, come and take shelter.”
