Second Marriage novel Chapter 252

Manfred froze.

“Do you regret it?”

Charlotte did not answer his words, but kept struggling. Manfred suddenly said, “I will take you away.”

“What did you say?”

“I'll take you away from here, away from B City.”

Charlotte, “... Are you crazy? How can you say such things? I am your sister-in-law!”

“You are not my real sister-in-law? Do you think that's an excuse to refuse me?” Manfred clasped her wrist, pulled her wrist high, and stared at her earnestly.

“Do you think I know nothing about you and him? He forced you to sign a contract and leave after six months, didn't he?”

Hearing that, Charlotte stared at him in disbelief. It was a secret between her and Kennedy. No one knew about it in addition to Nathan and Annie, as well as Diana.

How did he know?

“Are you wondering why I know this?” Manfred looked gloomy and his voice was depressed, “Think about it and you will understand. I know your divorce, because Kennedy does not like you and wants to divorce with you as soon as possible.”

“Stop it.” Charlotte interrupted him. She bit her lower lip and said, “Manfred, I've told you before that even if Kennedy doesn't like me, I won't like you. I will find a way to pay back the three hundred thousand I owe you as soon as possible. Please don't say that again. I'll pretend nothing happened. I gotta go.”

With that, Charlotte turned to leave directly.

Manfred was stimulated and directly dragged her back. He held the back of her head, bent over and kissed her lips.

Seeing his approaching handsome face, Charlotte was frightened and panicked. She turned her face before his lips touched hers, so Manfred kissed on her cheek.

Manfred did not give up, but wanted to conquer her because of her escape. He pinched her chin and was to kiss her again.

Charlotte avoided while shouting. It was a street with people coming and going, but no one came forward.

After all, they stood there and talked for a long time. Besides Manfred was tall, handsome, looking like a gentleman. No one would believe that he would force a woman.

“Manfred!”

When the corner of her lips was kissed, Charlotte was angry and slapped on his face.

She used all her strength to slap on his face and vent her anger to this slap. Manfred was in pain, with his face slanted.

Soon a five-finger mark appeared on his handsome face.

“You hit me?” Manfred's lip corner had a drop of blood. He looked at Charlotte with sadness in his eyes. Later, he gave a wry smile, “Do you really hate me?”

Seeing that his mouth was bleeding, Charlotte was depressed. She took her band back.

“I didn't mean to do it. You went too far!”

“I went too far?” Manfred laughed out loud, “I sincerely treat you well, but you dislike me. How about Kennedy? He treats you bad, but you still like him. Charlotte, are you stupid?”

“It's none of your business!” Charlotte shook off his hand. “If you do this again, I will be angry with you.”

With that, she stepped on high heels and ran away, leaving Manfred alone standing in situ looking at her back.

He had been watching her, until she disappeared in the corner of the street. A little girl stood next to him and looked at him timidly, “Are you all right?”

Then she handed him tissue and stared at the corner of his mouth. “The corner of your mouth is still bleeding.”

Manfred froze, but he did not take that tissue. He gently wiped his lip corner with his finger and licked it. It was salty.

The bitter in his eyes became heavier. She looked weak, but she hit him hard.

“Sir... Here's the tissue!” Again, the girl summoned up her courage and gave the tissue to him.

Manfred usually looked gentle, but his heart was cold. He took a look at the girl and said with obvious alienation, “No, thank you.”

The girl suddenly blushed. She was embarrassed by the rejection. Grabbing at the tissue in her hand, she stammered, “I'm sorry. I'm just worried about you. Since you don’t need it, I gotta go.”

Manfred did not answer her but lightly glanced at her and took back his eyes, and then went to the direction Charlotte had just left.

He wondered if she could go home smoothly, after all, she was not in a good mood today. He had to keep an eye on her.

Seeing that he did not look back, the girl got red in eyes, “Do you still want to look for her?”

Manfred frowned and stopped. “What else do you want?”

“No, I just want to remind you... She doesn't seem to like you. She'll probably hate you if you find her again.”

Hearing that, Manfred was annoyed and after a moment he sneered, “Little girl, this is my business. It has nothing to do with you.”

The girl did not dare to speak again. She stared at Manfred and then ran away.

Manfred left indifferently.

Charlotte did not go back to home, because she did not want to see Manfred now.

So she went back to her mother's house to see how things were.

As soon as Belinda saw her, Belinda rushed to her and hugged her, saying, “Charlotte, you are back. I am to look for you.”

Charlotte frowned, “What is going on, Mom?”

Belinda held her arms and cried, “It's all my fault! It's all my fault!”

Charlotte had to look to Bruno. Bruno said angrily, “She made it!”

With that, he walked into his room. Charlotte stood in situ. The family atmosphere was very bad. Belinda cried holding her and she did not know what happened.

“What's the matter?”

“Charlotte, it's my bad... We don’t have too much money, so I did a small business with others, but the other side ran away with all the money.”

Charlotte was shocked, “They ran away? How much was lost?”

Belinda wailed, “All the money in our family has gone, and the money I borrowed has gone...”

Charlotte's complexion changed and she told herself to calm down.

“Have you called the police?”
