Second Marriage
Chapter 3 The Duty a Wife Should Fulfill
Charlotte had stayed inside the room all by herself the whole night. She woke up early, moved all her clothes into the closet.
She had made it clear with Kennedy last night, and it seemed like he would not sleep there, therefore that room belonged to her completely.
They were just nominal husband-and-wife and they had nothing to do with each other.
To her, it was actually a good thing.
After changing, Charlotte went downstairs and saw a bunch of maidens being busy with their chores. She was feeling slightly hungry, therefore she wanted to ask where the kitchen was, yet one of the maidens waved her away rudely. “Where on earth are you from? Don’t block the way!”
Without being aware of that, Charlotte fell onto the ground.
The maiden threw a glance at her with superiority, yet her eyes suddenly became deferential.
A pair of big warm hands held Charlotte up. Charlotte turned around and was encountered by a gentle gaze.
The comer was wearing an immaculate white shirt and his smile was as warm as spring breeze.
Charlotte responded after being dumbfounded for a moment, she quickly took two steps backward to keep a distance away from him. “Thank you.”
“No worries, sister-in-law.”
“Sister-in-law?”
“I’m Kennedy’s eldest brother, Manfred Moore.” He extended his hand to her.
Charlotte was slightly startled that he was Kennedy’s eldest brother. She then awkwardly extended her hand and held his. “Nice to meet you, Manfred.”
Her voice was slightly shaky due to nervousness.
“It’s the maiden’s fault just now. I apologize to you on their behalf. I hope it doesn’t hurt your feeling. The people in the Moore family are all amiable. I’ll explain the situation to them afterwards.”
Charlotte nodded. “Thank you, Manfred.”
Manfred smiled. Before he could say anything further, a cold voice was heard abruptly.
“Looks like I’ve come here at a bad timing.”
Hearing the voice, Charlotte looked towards the direction which the voice came.
