Second Marriage novel Chapter 240

In the hospital, Nathan told Annie the situation. Annie helplessly shook her head, disinfected and cleaned her would before applying medicine. And then asked Charlotte to go back to have a good rest.

Before Charlotte left, Annie could not help but speak, “Charlotte, I think you are my family, so I have something to tell you directly. Your injuries look serious, but do not come to the hospital every day. Ask Kennedy to apply medicine on you, understand?"

Charlotte blushed, “I'm sorry, Aunt. I understand and I absolutely won't come to bother you."

Hearing that, Annie took a look at her, "What is in your mind? I don’t think you bothered me, but you cannot always come to the hospital and ask me to deal with your wound. You should learn to ask Kennedy to help you, understand? Women should soft but not stubborn sometimes."

Charlotte paused for a moment and realized that Annie was teaching her how to deal with Kennedy.

"Aunt, I..."

"Don’t forget what I have told you. Kennedy was cold and had a sharp tongue, but he is very sensitive and weak. His appearance is different from his heart. You should find a way to deal with him, get it?"

At this point, Annie held her hand and said, "Don't say I told you this. Think it by yourself, understand?"

After saying goodbye to Annie, Charlotte returned home. She thought a lot alone and then took out her phone and was to send Diana a message.

She only had Diana as a good friend before, and recently she met Yanis.

She had a lot on her mind these days, and she wanted someone to share it with.

As she took out the phone, Charlotte froze and thought of what she had told her. Should she talk with Diana about her mind? Would Diana scold her?

At this thought, Charlotte took a deep breath and finally put the phone down.

Well, she might as well follow her heart.

At noon, Charlotte would like to go to the company to have lunch with Kennedy, but when she arrived, Kennedy unexpectedly was not in the company.

She learnt that he had left the company very early. According to the security guard, Kennedy left soon after she left the company.

After learning the news, Charlotte thought deeply.

He asked Nathan to send her home and said he would go back to the meeting.

The meeting was important, and he just paused for a while. But why did he leave the company? Was there anything particularly important? More important than meetings?

Charlotte was curious, but she did not think much but went to have lunch with Yanis. Unexpectedly Kennedy had not come back for an afternoon. Charlotte could only go back home alone.

Originally Charlotte thought she would see him at night, so she had not applied the medicine, because she remembered what Annie said and thought he could help her.

So at first, Charlotte sat on the sofa and waited until she fell asleep. When she woke up, she found the room was empty and no one was there.

Charlotte subconsciously stretched out her hand to rub her eyes. Kennedy hadn't come back yet?

She rubbed her eyes before taking out her phone and taking a look.

It was already twelve o'clock at night.

It was so late...

Did she sleep on the sofa for hours?

Charlotte was cold, so she got up quickly to find a coat to put on, and then went out to look for Kennedy.

She went to the study and still couldn't find him. She had to ask the servant.

"Has Mr. Kennedy not come back?"

The servant answered, "Mrs. Moore, why haven't you slept at this late hour?"

Hearing this, Charlotte pressed her lips and asked again, "You haven't answered my questions yet."

The servant said respectfully, “Mr. Kennedy hasn't come back. Probably he is busy at work. It is late at night, have a sleep, Mrs. Moore."

With that, the servant walked away.

Charlotte stood at the same spot. It was so late, and he had not come back yet.

What was he busy with?

Thinking about this, Charlotte remembered that he left the company from early in the morning, and then she waited for him in the company all afternoon but he did not appear, and even now he had not come home.

Was there anything wrong?

Charlotte was nervous and took out the mobile phone to call Kennedy.

But it failed to get through. Charlotte was worried and could only make a call to Nathan.

Nathan answered after a long time. His voice seemed to be fuzzy, as if he had been woken up.

"Who is it?”

"Nathan, it's me."

"...Huh? Who is this? Mrs. Moore?" At the beginning Nathan was confused, and then he heard Charlotte's voice. Suddenly he woke up. Then Charlotte heard some noise and politely took the mobile phone away for a distance, and then put the phone to her ear again when she heard the voice of Nathan.

"Sorry for the delay, Mrs. Moore. What is it?"

It seemed that Kennedy was not with him.

Thinking of this, Charlotte asked carefully, “I want to ask you... Are you not with Kennedy?"

Hearing the name of Kennedy, Nathan seemed to think of something and became guilty.

"Mrs. Moore... Why ask this? Is there a problem?"

"He... He hasn't come home yet and I'm worried about him."

“What?” Nathan obviously was scared, "Mr. Kennedy hasn't back home yet?"

Charlotte nodded, “Yes, do you know where he is?"

"Damn it!” Nathan could not help but scold, “How could Mr. Kennedy be tangled by her till now? What time is it?"

This was Nathan's own complaint. Although he said it very quietly, Charlotte heard it, but it was not clear. She could only ask doubtfully, “What did you say?"

"Nothing." Nathan came to sense and denied, “Nothing, don't worry, Mrs. Moore, I will call him now."

"He couldn't get through on his cell phone."

Charlotte paused, nervously biting her lower lip, “Can you take me to him?"

She wondered what he had been up to all day today.

"Mrs. Moore..." Nathan said, “I'm afraid not, it's too late, and you have injuries. If Mr. Kennedy knows that I take you, he certainly will punish me."

"It's OK, my injury is fine. I'm worried."

"Don’t worry, Mrs. Moore, I will come to him now. You can go to bed."
