Second Marriage novel Chapter 126

It was like a new chef delivered the food she cooked to the customers. Seeing that the customers enjoy the food, she showed a bright smile.

Megan felt weird about it.

What the hell was going on?

"Sorry, I'm late." A cold male voice broke out suddenly.

Megan and Charlotte were stunned and looked at the sound.

The handsome Kennedy in a black suit sitting in a wheelchair was pushed in by from Nathan.

Charlotte was surprised to see Kennedy, widening her eyes. Why was he here?

Shouldn't he be at the company by this time? And he had already given the task to her.

Did she do something wrong?

Thinking of what had happened before, Charlotte immediately stood up and went over to him trembling. Her action made Zain lift his eyes and look to Charlotte.

Then Zain met Kennedy’s dim pupil.

Kennedy...

Thinking of the investigation result, Zain was thoughtful.

He looked Kennedy up and down.

Megan suddenly stood up and said, "Mr. Kennedy, if I had known you were coming, I would have..."

Kennedy looked cold, “I come over to see how the things are going here."

His voice was lukewarm, and there was no other emotion in it.

Megan looked at Charlotte awkwardly. Charlotte walked to the front of Kennedy and whispered, "Why are you here?"

Charlotte’s surprise expression was like a child. Kennedy narrowed his eyes. He had never found out that this woman was so lovely before.

And now, he liked all her sorts of expression.

And he liked it more and more.

Damn it!

Was it because of sex for one night? It could not be!

Then, Kennedy inexplicably got angry and said in a voice that only two people could hear, “I come to see if you have hooked up a man behind my back."

Charlotte, “......"

For a moment, her face stiffened.

And Kennedy put on a half-smile face, rolled wheelchair to the table, “Do you mind I join you?"

Zain put down the knife and fork, smiling.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Kennedy."

Kennedy hooked his lips, “Nice to meet you."

Charlotte maintained her original posture. After hearing their dialogue, she turned to look at them.

She went back to the original seat to sit down. They sat awkwardly. Later Charlotte realized that only Zain had food, and she actually forgot Megan’s and hers.

"Sorry, I'll get the waiter to order!"

After the waiter came, Charlotte asked everyone's opinion and gave a sigh of relief after ordering.

Kennedy suddenly proposed, “The atmosphere is so good. Mr. Nelson, why don't you have drink?"

As Megan wanted to say that Mr. Nelson didn't drink, but Zain actually agreed, “OK."

Two bottles of wine were served before the food was served.

When Charlotte saw the bottle of wine, her face slightly changed. As they were drinking, she secretly asked the price, then she was not calm.

This was a famous restaurant in B City. All chefs were famous. The prices of the signature dishes were quite high, not to mention the red wine.

It was the kind of restaurant that ordinary people would not come here. The fancy places were usually for negotiation or to win people over, but because the food of this restaurant was cook by a famous chef, it was popular.

But most of them could afford it.

And Charlotte was obviously the one who could not afford it.

Even though the old man from the financial department had applied a lot of money for her, it might not be enough to pay for this meal.

Charlotte looked back at them and quietly took a mobile phone to the bathroom.

There was no one else in the women's room, Charlotte stood outside and made a call to Diana.

Diana was surprised to received her call, “Why call me in the work hour? Do you want to invite me to lunch?"

Charlotte did not have time to joke with her. Now it was urgent.

"Diana, it is urgent, lend me some money!"

Diana, “...What's the matter?"

Charlotte, “It's a long story, but I really need the money now."

"Well, how much do you need? I'll transfer to you right now." Diana said.

They had known each other for years. Since Diana moved to the Nelson family, she tried every way to make it up for Charlotte, but Charlotte never borrowed money from her, nor asked her to help.

Even looking for that strange man, it was Diana’s idea.

She was happy that Charlotte wanted to borrow money from her, at least she asked for her help. Diana also had the opportunity to make up for her, she felt less relieved.

So she soon transferred the money to Charlotte. Charlotte was thankful when she received the message, “Thank you."

Diana asked, “Why do you need this much money? Thought it's a long story, tell be a bit about it."

Speaking of this, Charlotte smiled, “This is really a long story. I said I would invite your brother to dinner before, didn't I?"

Hearing that, Diana was nervous and she nodded, “Yes, what's the matter?"

"The Moore Group is going to cooperate with the Nelson Group, so I have the honor to invite your brother to dinner today."

"What, what did you say??"

Before Charlotte had finished her words, Diana was frightened. Charlotte heard over the phone that she seemed to have accidentally knocked over something, she asked, “What is going on?"

"You and my brother...Have you met?" Diana's voice sounded flustered. Charlotte was confused, frowning.

Thinking of something, Charlotte quickly explained, “You can rest assured that I did not disturb your brother’s work. We had the opportunity to meet because we were talking about work.”

“Where are you now?” Diana asked suddenly.

“What?”

"Tell me, aren't you at dinner? Which restaurant?" Diana did not find her voice trembling.

Charlotte, “...The most famous one in B City..."

Before she could finish her words, Diana hung up the phone, “Wait for me, I will be right there!"
