Second Marriage
Chapter 39 I Don’t Want Your Money
The sharp voice startled Charlotte. She held tighter her towel and walked slowly toward Kennedy.
But she stopped when she stood far away from him.
She bit her lower lip.
“What can I do for you?”
“Help me to bed.” Kennedy’s voice was cold, and there were no waves in eyes.
Charlotte was relieved. He had just asked her to help him to bed. That was all right. However, she was wearing a bath towel which could fall off easily, so she asked, “Can I change my clothes before I help you? I just... I forgot to bring my clothes in.”
Kennedy kept silent, staring at her.
Charlotte took a corner of the towel and bit her lower lip. “Just a moment, just a moment,” she said.
He still kept silent. Charlotte felt it was impossible for her to help him in the bath towel, so she moved slowly. Seeing that Kennedy had no other movement, she suddenly turned and ran to the bed, took the clothes she had prepared in advance and rushed into the bathroom.
A moment later, she rushed out again. The skirt hung crooked on her body and her shoulder could be seen. Charlotte pulled up the clothes and walked towards Kennedy, and by the time she got to Kennedy, she was already well dressed.
The whole process took less than a minute.
The speed was fast.
But her hair was in a mess.
Kennedy narrowed his eyes, looking at the woman. She was barefoot wearing a light blue sleep dress, of which the quality was average. Probably it was old, so the color became faint, which was not to her fair skin.
He felt this skirt pull down her temperament.
Kennedy frowned and stared at her unhappily.
Charlotte noticed his eyes and glanced down at her skirt. She thought she knew what he was looking at. She felt a little embarrassed, flushed and bit her lower lip for a long time before she spoke.
“I’ve done. I'll help you to rest.”
