Second Marriage novel Chapter 4

Kennedy did not continue further, but Charlotte knew his words were full of blatant threats. She was feeling slightly indignant. She had quitted her job because of him and now she had to follow him everywhere all day.

They had promised to stay out of each other’s business at first, yet they were now being forcibly tied together, and Charlotte was unwilling to do that.

However, she did not say a word as her current situation was too awkward.

They walked past the main gate without saying anything along the way and Kennedy who was wheelchair-bound was helped into the car. Charlotte subconsciously intended to board the car too but was stopped by Nathan. “Miss Wilson, this car is special for our young master.”

Charlotte was startled and she asked, “What do you mean?”

Kennedy turned his head towards her and there was contempt in his calm and deep eyes. “You’re not yet fit to become my assistant.”

Hearing him, there was a change in Charlotte’s expression. “What? Then why did you promise grandpa just now?”

Kennedy ignored her and moved his eyes away while Nathan was ready to close the car door with an expressionless face. Charlotte extended her hand to block the closure and questioned Kennedy. “What about me when you left? Grandpa…”

Having mentioned Reynold, cruelty flashed across Kennedy’s eyes. He then squinted and stared at her with a dangerous look.

“Nathan, tell her the route and let her walk there by herself.”

Charlotte was completely speechless.

How could someone have such an obnoxious demeanor?

Nathan informed her of the route emotionlessly and closed the car door indifferently.

“Miss Wilson, I wish you good luck.”

After saying those words, the car was driven away.

Charlotte was left standing alone in the wind in front of the gate. The guards who witnessed that were looking at her with sympathy.

Having faced those sympathetic looks, Charlotte felt her heart wrenched.

She then clenched her fists with determination.

It’s no big deal walking there by herself after all.

Meanwhile in the car, Nathan asked, “Sir, won’t it be too much to treat her like that?”

Kennedy frowned and replied coldly. “So do you want to get out of the car to accompany her?”

With a change in expression, Nathan said, “Pretend I never said that.”

Kennedy snorted and he looked at the petite figure which was standing at the entrance from the rearview mirror. Yet with just a glance he retrieved his stare. He seemed to have remembered something after a moment and his lips quivered. “Any news for the woman I want you to search for?”

Having mentioned that, Nathan coughed on his fist and said, “Sir, there was no surveillance camera along that road, and coincidentally the rain was heavy that day. The night was too dark and even the pedestrians were hard to be seen. But, if you’re willing to give me some more time, I’m sure we could find that out.”

Kennedy was feeling despondent. Usually, as long as it was his order, Nathan could always fulfill it excellently.

Yet it turned out he could not fulfill this one matter.

Kennedy’s expression grew gloomier and with a stern look, he said, “It’s been a month. If it was planned, the woman would be pregnant by now.”

Nathan was greatly taken aback by his words. It was no joke for an anonymous woman to get pregnant with Kennedy’s child. His look became serious.

“I got it. I’ll ask someone to keep an eye on what’s happening in the hospital.”

Kennedy lowered his eyes.

He had never been in contact with any woman, and the woman that night was the first.

Therefore he had to find her!

Meanwhile, Charlotte had spent half an hour to arrive at the Moore Group building.

Unfortunately she was barred from entering as she did not make an appointment and was forbidden to enter.

The existence of the Moore Group resembled the backbone of B City.

The company being a monopoly had propelled the economic development of the city. B City which was still an insignificant small city fifteen years ago was now transformed into a metropolis at the frontline.

And it was not easy to enter the building of such a huge company as one wish.

“I’m sorry, could you inform Kennedy Moore I’m here? I really am his new assistant.”

The receptionist at the front desk glanced at her disdainfully. “What nonsense are you talking about? Mr. Moore never needed an assistant, and this is known by everyone from the company. I know you want to seduce him, but can’t you gather your information more fully?”

Having heard that, Charlotte was slightly shocked. She was afraid that Kennedy had already thought of that and knew even if she came, she would not be able to enter the company building.
