Chapter 229:
Charlotte didn’t answer, but shook her head, burying herself in his arms.
In fact, before he arrived, Charlotte thought quietly that it wasn’t her fault, nor Yanis’. If there was a confrontation, she would not be afraid. At worst, she would take full responsibility for herself.
But now Kennedy hurried toward her and looked at her with dark eyes full of anxiety, which made her complaints burst forth.
She must not take all the responsibility for herself, she thought. She would explain things clearly.
But……si Maggie had an accident, they would have something to do with it.
There were so many people present who didn’t like her that many would probably take the opportunity to accuse her.
“Charlotte!”
Aldrich rushed over after receiving the information of Maggie’s accident. But when he arrived, he saw his ex-wife nesting in the arms of another man, which infuriated him. He said to her, “Did you text me to see this?”
At the sound of Aldrich’s voice, Charlotte came to her senses. Kennedy’s familiar breath surrounded her. She had fantasized out of fear. Now…… needed to come back to reality.
She slowly sat up and was about to respond, but the back of her head was suddenly pressed down.
Kennedy pressed her against his chest and said coldly, “Fuck you.”
The powerful momentum in his body exploded, forcing Aldrich to barely stand. He looked at Kennedy in fear, then said in a trembling voice, “It’s not me you want…it’s that woman…she’s the one who sent me the message and lured me here.”
Hearing that, Kennedy flashed a cold smile, “Really?”
Charlotte debated in his arms for a while and then said in a muffled voice, “I called her to come.”
Aldrich felt proud, “See, he’s admitted it!”
Kennedy’s eyes were cold. Charlotte let go of his arms and then looked at Aldrich, “I called him to come to the E.R. Remember what I said in the message?”
Hearing that, Aldrich remembered the message that Maggie had been in an accident.
Seeing Charlotte look at the ER, Aldrich realized, “You mean Maggie’s in the ER?”
Charlotte did not speak, as an unspoken affirmation.
Aldrich became angry and pointed at Charlotte angrily, “What’s wrong with you?
Maggie will soon give birth to a child, how can you be so cruel to her? Charlotte, if the child has an accident, I’ll finish you.”
Charlotte bit her lower lip and said in a cold voice, “You don’t know at all what has happened but you say I’m cruel?”
“I don’t need to think about it. I’m sure you hold a grudge after divorcing me. You’re jealous that she’s pregnant, that’s why you’re cruel to her. Because we didn’t have children, so you tried to kill my only son. Charlotte, I never thought you were this kind of woman. Mr. Kennedy… you must not be deceived by this woman.”
At this point, Aldrich suddenly thought of something, “Mr. Kennedy, you must leave her for your own good, and stop believing her lies, otherwise…she is going to kill you someday.
I am living proof of that.”
“……” Charlotte swallowed her anger and bit her lower lip. asshole!
Ever since they’d been married, he’d been messing around with another woman. After the divorce, he even defamed her!
But now Charlotte was more worried about whether Kennedy believed what he said.
Thinking about this, Charlotte looked at him and gave him a nervous look. “You can’t believe what he said. It’s not like that at all.”
Kennedy raised an eyebrow, curved his thin lips and said mockingly, “How on earth did you fall in love with a man like that and marry him for two years? Didn’t you find anything in two years? Are you stupid?”
Charlotte blushed. Before she said anything, Kennedy continued, “You should strike back without mercy.”
Hearing that, Charlotte was stunned, as was Aldrich.
Kennedy glanced at Aldrich and sneered, “Are you Charlotte’s worthless ex-husband who never spent money on the family, but had an affair with a mistress?”
Charlotte looked at Kennedy with surprise.
She hadn’t expected him to defend her and to know so much.
Had he investigated her?
“You… What did you say? Nonsense, Maggie is not a mistress!” Aldrich probably didn’t expect Kennedy to say that, he was embarrassed, “This woman is useless and heartless, so I abandoned her and married another woman.”
“On the day of your divorce, the mistress was already several months pregnant, how dare you say it’s Charlotte’s fault?” Aldrich’s facts were checked by Nathan, so he knew him well. Hearing that Charlotte was accused, he spoke for her, “During the marriage, you had spent all your money on that mistress, hadn’t you? After winning the lottery, you couldn’t wait to divorce Charlotte. And now you slandered her. You should be ashamed of yourself as a man.”
Kennedy’s harsh words infuriated Aldrich: “You!”
“It’s a good thing they divorced. Charlotte can only consider herself lucky after leaving you.”
“Speaking of which.” Hearing that, Kennedy laughed softly and curved his lips.
With his finger on Charlotte’s neck, he gently rubbed her bruise, which made Charlotte feel better, “I should thank this deceitful man. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have married such a fine wife, would I?”
He glanced at Charlotte and said softly.
His eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky. For a moment, Charlotte almost thought what he had said was true, but…. Charlotte quickly realized that it was only a play.
He was not to be disgraced by his wife.
He wanted to maintain his image.
With this in mind, Charlotte smiled sweetly and said, “Yes, I should also thank you for choosing to divorce me. If you had not divorced me, I could still be living in misery and still be cheated on by you.”
At this point, his hands went around Kennedy’s neck. She leaned into his body, “I should thank you that I now have a good husband..”
“You…” Aldrich had not expected the couple to show their love in front of him. He was so angry he clenched his fist and couldn’t say a word.
