Second Marriage novel Chapter 244

He... he know she was pregnant?

Did he suspect the child was related to him? Or would it remind him of that rainy night?

Seeing her face turned pale in an instant, Manfred frowned slightly and lowered his voice, “Don't you know that?"

Charlotte shook her head, subconsciously retreated back.

Manfred’s stretching hand was stopped in the middle of the air. After a moment he pursed his lips, “Is it Kennedy’s?"

Without waiting for her answer, Manfred said again, “No, Kennedy sits in a wheelchair, he could not do that. Well......" His eyes fell sharply on her face.

“Nobody's!” Charlotte retorted loudly before he could speak.

Manfred was confused, "Charlotte?"

Charlotte huddled in the corner and hugged her knees. "It has nothing to do with you," she said, looking at Manfred with wary eyes.

Her eyes alerted as if to guard against a thief, which made Manfred’s heart cold. He frowned at her, “You hate me?"

Hearing that, Charlotte's heart had a burst of thrum. Before she had any reaction, Manfred came forward to hold her wrist forcefully, “Why? What have I done to hurt you? Why do you hate me? I've been kind to you ever since you married into the family, even --"

Charlotte wanted to take her hand back, but Manfred had much strength even if he was gentle at usual time. He held her wrist tightly and she could not break free. She said angrily, “Even what? Manfred, let go of my hand!"

"Even I gave you my heart." Manfred looked at her with a painful expression, "but you go against me, hate me. Charlotte, what did I do wrong?"

Charlotte was guilty by his painful eyes. Yeah, since she had married into the family, he had been helping her, including that she was humiliated by her mother in the street, as well as things related to Aldrich.

But......Her relationship with him was too complicated, and she didn't want to admit it.

Thinking of this, Charlotte lowered her eyes and bit her lower lip forcefully. "Let go of me."

Manfred tightly griped her hand and there was no trend to loosen.

"Manfred!” Charlotte was angry that her face turned pale. And she rebuked him.

When he heard his name in her mouth, he loosened his hand a little. After a moment, he let her go with a satisfied smile, “If you are willing to call my name often, then I won't do it to you.

Charlotte, “......"

Being silent for a long time, Charlotte was ready to get off the bed from the corner.

"I have been out for long. I must go back."

"Are you going back after the night?"

Charlotte raised her head in astonishment. It had been a night?

“When I brought you back to my private house, you had a fever, and I had no choice but to take you to the hospital. The doctor said you had a cold, and the fever kept you in a coma, so you could only stay here for one night.”

At the thought that she spent the night outside, Charlotte's face instantly turned pale. She wondered how Kennedy would think of her. She wanted to take her mobile phone, but for a long time she did not find it.

"Are you looking for this?" Manfred handed her mobile phone. Charlotte quickly took over, and then subconsciously wanted to call Kennedy.
