Second Marriage novel Chapter 209

Kennedy sneered, “You worry much. Demotion was just to deceive the public. Charlotte is my wife, I will not let her suffer that.”

At this point, Kennedy suddenly turned the wheel toward the direction of Charlotte. Charlotte was still holding the document.

“Charlotte, what do you think?”

“What?” Before Charlotte figure out what to say, Kennedy circled her waist and held her into arms. Her body lost control and feel into Kennedy’s arms.

Seeing this, Manfred could not help but clench his hands and there was anger between eyebrows.

“It seems that my wife is very enthusiastic today. She throws herself into my arms. Well...I can’t fail you.”

Before Charlotte figured out what was Kennedy going to do, he pinched her chin and kissed on her lips.

When their lips touched, Charlotte’s pupils trembled and she even forgot to struggle.

He had dinner with Diana just now, and at this moment, in front of his eldest brother, he pinched her chin and kissed her. What was this?

This was not feeling, nor desire, but a show and revenge!

He did it on purpose because Manfred was here.

Thinking of that, Charlotte recovered and was to push Kennedy away, but Kennedy pulled her away by her shoulders.

With an another look, she found Manfred was no longer in the office.

Charlotte raised her hand and gave Kennedy a slap in the face.

“Asshole.”

Kennedy had a palm print on his handsome face immediately because of that. He titled his face, pressed his lips, which showed his anger at this time.

But Charlotte was still angry and wanted to give him another slap in the face, but was stopped by Kennedy.

She struggled to break free, but she failed.

She could only say to Kennedy angrily, “What do you mean? Make me the tool of your revenge?”

Kennedy’s eyes were sharp and dark. And his words were harsh, “You are the first woman who dare to hit me.”

“So what?” Charlotte bit her lower lip. “If you can humiliate me, why can’t I retaliate against you? Do you think I should be thankful because you gave me my job back? No, I’d rather stay down to earth and do my job in the small department than go back to this disgusting place!”

With that, Charlotte forcefully pushed Kennedy away, turned around and ran out.

At the time of turning around, Kennedy saw her red eyes. He froze, watching her ran away.

After a moment, he dropped his eyes.

Was she sad?

Charlotte had her temper and left early after being humiliated by Kennedy, without caring if Kennedy would deduct her salary or bonus or not. She did not want to continue to stay there.

So she left work early and then went to a café. She sat there quietly. When it was about to get off work, she sent text messages to Diana.

Diana hurried over. Charlotte had been sitting there for a long time and drinking coffee one after another.

“Charlotte.” Diana ran in, panting. But when approaching Charlotte, her pace became slower, and when she sat down in front of her, her breath had calmed down a lot.

“Sit.” Charlotte said calmly.

Diana’s was nervous. When the waiter came, she ordered a cup of coffee, and then looked at Charlotte.

“You...You don’t look good. Are you still angry at me?”

“Angry?” Charlotte lifted her eye and looked at her. Diana dressed up, but she was wearing a dress that was different from that she had at noon. At this moment, she was wearing a pink skirt with round collar design, revealing only her slender neck.

Charlotte calmly looked her up and down, and then lowered her eyes.

“Why should I be angry?”

“Charlotte, do you believe that video Yanis send to you?”

Diana bit her lower lip, “Don’t believe her. She did not like me since she met me. She is weird and said I was to seduce Kenney. We are good friends, I won’t do that.”

She said a lot, but Charlotte was silent.

“Charlotte, say something, do you really believe what she said? We’re friends, if you don’t believe me, I can swear.”

Swear...

Charlotte’s eyes flashed, and she looked to Diana.

Diana paused and raised her head, “I swear to God, I really did not want to seduce......”

“Why did you come to Kennedy?” Charlotte interrupted her words out of a sudden. Diana pursed her lips and her voice became weak, “Nothing......nothing.”

“Didn’t you say you talked about work? Why now it is nothing?” Charlotte questioned her, but she just wanted to ask her friend what she wanted to do.

“So…you really believe Yanis’s words, you suspect me, right?”

Charlotte took a deep breath. “Why do you think that? I asked you what you talked about, is it a problem? We used to talk to each other about anything, didn’t we? Can’t you tell me what you talked about?”

“Charlotte, I...”

Charlotte fixed her eyes at her. Diana’s eyes became red and she shed tears, which stunned Charlotte.

“I thought you were supposed to trust me unconditionally. You were the one who helped me when I got into trouble. Even if I were unkind to everyone, I wouldn’t be unkind to you. Maybe...I have a bad attitude to Yanis, maybe I am arrogant to others, but, Charlotte, I’m always thinking about you! Even if I go so close to Kennedy, it is not for seducing him!”

“So... Do you admit that you have approached Kennedy?”

“Yes.” Diana said with tears in eyes, “I admit that I intend to get close to him, but so what? I don’t like him for treating you so badly. I want him to avenge you, and besides...You and he are only a figment husband and wife, and the child in your womb...”

“Stop!” Charlotte’s face changed greatly and she interrupted her words, “Don’t mention it again!”

Her mood was excited. Diana laughed out loud suddenly from crying, “Why not? I am telling the truth. I asked my eldest brother to help you find this person, hoping that you can have a family. But what are you doing? He’s standing right in front of you and you don’t even have the courage to identify him!?”
