“Let me give it some thought.”
In the end, Diana sent Charlotte back to the Moore family house.
“Three days will come and go in the blink of an eye. Lottie, make up your mind fast, and give me a call.”
Diana’s words echoed by her ears, and Charlotte had a heavy heart at the moment.
“If you want to continue staying with the Moore family, you have to abort the child.”
“Lottie, the Wilson family can’t have two failures as their daughters!”
Charlotte studied herself in the mirror.
What should she do later? Was she left with no other alternatives other than getting rid of her child?
While still thinking about this, she heard footsteps coming from outside. Charlotte immediately tensed up, and as she flung open the door to the bathroom, she saw Kennedy entering the room.
Their eyes met, and almost instantly, Charlotte averted her gaze. She nervously headed to the far corners of her room.
“Stop right there.” His cold voice sounded.
Charlotte stopped short in her tracks, as if her feet were glued to the floor. She didn’t dare to move an inch.
“Have you made up your mind?” Kennedy had a mocking smile playing around his lips. His gaze was as dangerous as the ones possessed by a leopard.
Charlotte intertwined her fingers while biting her lip hard, “Didn’t you give me three days?”
“Do you really think that I have the patience to wait for that long?”
Kennedy slightly raised his tone, and his gaze was even more venomous now.
Charlotte couldn’t help widen her eyes, “Are you not planning to keep to your word?”
Her eyes were written with shock and incomprehension. Kennedy narrowed his eyes and let out a cold laugh, “If you want to play this game with me, I will accompany you. However, the rules are set by me.”
Did he refer to this ordeal as a game? This was a new life in her belly, but in actuality he viewed this ordeal as a game.
“If you feel indignant and frustrated, all the better. Pack up your things and get lost from the Moore family.”
When she heard this, Charlotte slowly clenched her fists.
He was provoking her now in order to make her leave the Moore family on her own volition.
Since there was still time left until their promised time, Charlotte decided not to have a meaningless argument with him. She turned around and headed the opposite direction while starting to prepare her bed.
Kennedy half-expected her to fly into a rage and argue with her, but to his surprise, despite her eyes written with indignation and fury, she was able to swallow her frustrations. All traces of her emotion were gone like the wind. She instead chose to turn her back on him.
She was completely ignoring his presence.
He felt unsatisfied after his verbal punch had landed on nothing!
“Nathan, you can leave now.”
Nathan froze slightly when he heard that, “But Mr. Kennedy, I haven’t helped you to…”
“Didn’t she want to be my wife? You can leave this task to her.”
Charlotte who was tidying her bed paused and then she stood up.
“What do you need me to do?”
“Tell her about the duties of being my wife.”
Nathan glanced at Kennedy with doubts in his eyes. He couldn’t see what Kennedy was going with this, but he still followed his orders anyway.
“Mr. Kennedy’s legs are not fully healthy, so you shall standby whenever he is taking a bath. You have to be able to attend to any of his requests and do whatever Mr. Kennedy asks you to do.” Even after making sure his message was clear, Nathan was still worried about leaving Kennedy to her. He inched closer towards Charlotte and muttered something by her ears.
Charlotte listened intently, but the more she took in, the more embarrassed she felt. Her face slightly blushed as she bit her lip, “Do I really have to do this?”
Nathan couldn’t read his concerns as he replied squarely, “Of course. Make sure you do a good job, or else you would have to face Mr. Kennedy’s wrath and risk getting thrown out of the house.”
Charlotte was shocked by his warning and she nodded profusely, “I understand now.”
