Second Marriage novel Chapter 219

His sharp eyes were like looking at a thief, which made Charlotte anger and bit his lower lip.

“Who said you stole it?”

Kennedy voice was clam but it made her feel uncomfortable. Charlotte clenched fist, “What do you mean?”

Kennedy found the button on the button was gone.

After that night being with the woman, he found a button of his suit was missing, he did not care about it, but he would wear it anymore, so he put it away instead of throwing it away.

Today he accidentally found that the buttons on the top have been removed.

He thought it again and felt Charlotte would not do that, but who would do that except her?

Then, Kennedy had the thought that it might in the hand of the woman that night?

“Nothing.” Kennedy replied in a cold voice, frowning. “Haven’t you really touched my wardrobe?”

Charlotte, “...What did you miss? What are you trying to say, go to the point?”

He still kept silent. Charlotte nodded, “I will talk to you later. Diana is to visit Reynold, so I gotta go.”

With that, Charlotte turned around and went out directly.

After she left, Kennedy turned over the suit in the hand and stared at the spots where the buttons should be.

One was lost. Where were the other two?

Charlotte went downstairs to open the door. When she passed by the living room, she saw Manfred sitting on the sofa. He was on the phone. Suddenly he seemed to have sensed something and looked toward her. Charlotte hurried to leave.

She waited at the door for a while before she saw Diana’s car.

Diana got off, gave the keys to the butler to park the car, and then walked into the house with Charlotte, carrying a lot of things.

“Charlotte, it is good to have you picked me up. I thought you are angry with me, so I did not come to you. Will you mind?” Diana asked softly as she entered the door.

Charlotte did not care about it and she just wanted to calm down in these days, so she shook her head, “Never mind, go in. By the way, Reynold is out and may be back later.”

“It doesn’t matter.” Diana rubbed her cheek with a smile, “I come here for you and look in Reynold.”

Hearing that, Charlotte felt warm in heart.

“Thank you, Diana.”

“Well, let’s go in.”

Charlotte helped her carry things. As they walked in, they met Manfred, and Diana was very enthusiastic seeing him.

“Manfred.”

“Come and play?” Manfred took a book in hands, looking at them with a smile. And then his eyes fixed on Charlotte’s face. Seeing that Charlotte had been avoiding his line of sight, his eyes became dark.

“Yes, I heard that Reynold went out. This is my gift to everyone.” With that, Diana gave a bag to Manfred, smiling, “I hope you like it.”

“You are welcome to be here, and don’t have to prepare gift.” Manfred modestly and courteously took the bag in her hand.

“I am guest, so I should take some gifts.”

“All right, you guys play by yourselves. I’ll take care of some business.” Seeing that Charlotte was unease with him here, Manfred had to leave with an excuse.

After he left, Diana took Charlotte’s hand and walked towards the living room. “Actually, I think Manfred is gentle and polite. He is good, but if you don’t like him, I shall forget all about it, and never mention it again.”

Hearing that, Charlotte froze and looked at her in disbelief.

“Diana?”

“Surprised? We are friends. I have thought about it carefully these days. I think I should respect your choice, after all, it is your own business. I shouldn’t interfere into it too much.”

Speaking of this, Diana put the things in her hand down, “Don’t be too moved. By the way, Reynold hasn’t come back, what should we do now?”

“Let me show you around.”

It happened that she was not familiar with this place, so she could have a look around when she showing her.

So Charlotte took Diana to the back garden. Diana suddenly said her stomach did not feel well and wanted to use the bathroom. Charlotte nodded, “Well, go then, I’ll wait for you here.”

“Ok, wait for me, I will be back.”

Diana said goodbye to her, walked on the long corridor, and when she saw Kennedy not far away, she showed a charming smile and walked to him pretending to be surprised.

“Mr. Kennedy? You’re here...”

Kennedy would go to the back garden in the weekend, but he did not expect to meet Diana here.

Kennedy took a cold look at her and responded simply.

“I’m sorry, I was here with Charlotte, but I got lost on my way to the bathroom.” With that, she approached closer to Kennedy and affixed Kennedy’s back. She said in a soft tone, “Mr. Kennedy, am I stupid?”

Kennedy, “...”

He frowned. This woman...

“Mr. Kennedy, Can you take me to the bathroom?” While saying, Diana unintentionally stretched out fingertip to poke Kennedy back. Seeing that he did not have reaction, her fingers moved slowly up to his neck. Her heartbeat became faster and faster.

As her fingers began to caress his neck, her wrists were suddenly clamped hard.

Kennedy stared at her and said in a voice ice, “What do you want to do?”

Diana was startled. Kennedy used a great strength, and there were traces on her hand. He had treated her so before. Diana was at a loss for a while, “No, I want nothing, Mr. Kennedy......You’re hurting me.”

Her looked innocently at Kennedy with watery eyes.

Looking at her watery eyes, he thought of a pair of cool eyes like glacial lake. That woman occurred to him. That woman looked at with innocent eyes too, but she was stubbed and unyielding.

But this woman was different. Her innocence was so false.

“Nothing?” Kennedy sneered, “Why are you so close to me?”
