Second Marriage novel Chapter 289

It hit Charlotte like thunder.

She did not expect that Diana would say it out.

She turned in alarm to look at the door of the ward.

“Charlotte, are you very afraid? Because you are pregnant with Manfred’s child, even if you are with Kennedy, you would not feel peaceful. If... I said if, if Kennedy knows you have an affair with Manfred, do you think he will be ok with that?”

Hearing that, Charlotte felt cold in heart. She looked at Diana, “So what? Are you going to tell him about it? Do you think I will divorce with Kennedy?”

Diana shook her head in panic, “You misunderstood me. I won’t tell you if you don’t want to. Charlotte...... We're good friends and I always think about you. Look at this...”

Diana handed a contract to Charlotte.

Charlotte didn't mind it at first, but when she saw the name on the contract, her face turned pale and she began to breathe quickly. “Why do you have this contract?”

Diana did not speak but looked at her timidly.

This was the divorce contract that she signed with Kennedy, but Diana had it? What on earth was going on here?

Was this the satisfactory answer Kennedy gave her?

“Charlotte, I know you may be very fond of Kennedy, but... feelings can't be forced, he doesn’t like you. If he knows your child is Manfred’s, he will hate you. Wouldn't it be better to be with Manfred than to live a miserable life with Kennedy? Manfred really likes you.”

“Stop!!” Charlotte interrupted her, “I don't need anyone to teach me what I should choose. I want to be with whoever I like. You said that feelings can't be forced, so why should I force myself to be with Manfred? Diana, we always are good friends and you said you do it for my good, but you have not asked me if I want to be with Manfred. You only know that he likes me, but you never ask me if I like him. Even if you know I don’t like him, you still insisted that I be with him. You said it's for me, but...are you sure it is not for your own selfish ends?”

Diana was stunned looking at her in surprise, “My own selfish ends?”

“If you have no selfish ends, you will find that your conduct is no different from forcing me. But you are so carried away by your feelings that you are willing to set me up with Manfred. Am I right?”

“Charlotte......”

“This is the last time I see you, Diana. No matter what you do in the future, it has nothing to do with me. You were good to me, but I was good to you too. I don't owe you, plus I saved your life yesterday. I won't see you again.”

With that, Charlotte turned to go out.

She needed to be ruthless, or her emotion would be easily changed by Diana.

“Even if one day Kennedy takes the contract and tells you to divorce, you still don’t care? Charlotte, you said I have my own selfish ends, but it does for your own good. If he really divorces with you, what should you do?”
