Second Marriage novel Chapter 27

If Charlotte was under the illusion just now, she was disillusioned now because of Kennedy's cold words. Her face was pale and she clenched her fists in silence.

"I... I didn't think so."

"Really? Then why do you look so happy? Charlotte, I warn you that you are just my assistant in public."

Charlotte bit her lower lip and did not speak.

"I'm only helping you because I don't want you to lose the face of the Moore family. Do you understand?"

Kennedy, who was a little gentle before, now was heartless again.

No wonder he suddenly changed his temperament.

He said that he bought the whole shopping mall for her. It turned out that what he cared about was the face of the Moore family.

She... was even secretly happy.

Now that this fact had been revealed by Kennedy, Charlotte only felt incomparably embarrassed.

Nathan, who was behind them, naturally heard their conversation. He didn't take Kennedy's words seriously. He never knew Kennedy was a person who would care about the reputation of the Moore family.

If Kennedy really cared, he would not have done things his own way.

However, these words were indeed a bit too much for a girl.

Obviously, Charlotte looked dejected and slowed down. Nathan came forward and said, "Ms. Wilson, let me do it."

Hearing this, Charlotte reacted and shook her head, "No, I can do it."

She thought of something and handed the contract she had been holding to Kennedy.

Kennedy raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Are you in a temper?"

Charlotte was puzzled, "What?"

Seeing his eyes full of irony, Charlotte realized what he meant. She pursed her lips and calmed down. Her eyes turned cold again and she said indifferently, "I know you were acting. But I still have to thank you. Since the play was finished, the contract should be returned to you."

She didn't think Kennedy would really buy the whole shopping mall and give it to her.

Even if Kennedy really bought it for her, she, Charlotte, would not accept it.

He had thought her money-oriented. If she accepted these things, she would be a vain woman in his eyes forever.

"I won't take back the things I have given away."

Charlotte paused, pursed her lips, and replied stubbornly, "I'm not going to accept something that doesn't belong to me."

Kennedy seemed to be choked. Then, there was a glint of mockery in his eyes and he sneered, "Is it?"

"I know that I am an unscrupulous woman in your eyes. Since I am such a person, then you should not give me these things, or I will achieve my purpose, right?"

"Charlotte, is your ambition that little?"

Charlotte bit her lips, and huffed, "Of course it is not!"

The more she argued with Kennedy, the more real she looked. There were some people who wanted it but just pretended not to want it on the surface. However, they would sneak around behind the scenes. Compared with such people, Charlotte was much cuter.

"Ms. Wilson, Mr. Kennedy won't take back the things he has sent. You'd better take it."

Nathan saw that the two had been at an impasse. So, he had to go forward and speak kindly.

Charlotte was angry. She didn't want to be looked down on by others. She clenched her fists and was about to say something.

"Do you think this is a free gift to you? That dress is 300,000. Do you think you don't have to pay it back?"

Hearing this, Charlotte opened and shut her mouth slightly. What did Kennedy mean?

When Charlotte was about to ask questions again, they were already in front of the car. Charlotte had no choice but to get on the car first.

After they got on the car, Charlotte's lips moved. However, Kennedy closed his eyes.

"Please don't wake Mr. Kennedy up before we get to destination, Ms. Wilson." Nathan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, reminded kindly.

"..." What an eccentricity!

Charlotte was helpless. The contract in her hand was so heavy. She looked at Kennedy's closed eyes. There was a faint blue under his eyes.
