Chapter 45:
“You!” Charlotte turned pale and glared at him.
Gerald flashed a faint smile, “Am I wrong, aren’t you having an affair? Oh, sure, he’s crippled, how can you have an affair?”
Hearing him say that Kennedy was handicapped, Charlotte immediately became angry. She held the spoon tightly in her hands, “Mr. Gerald, it is not the behavior of a gentleman to attack others with words…”.
“What?” Gerald held up his hands and leaned back, sneering, “This is a well-known thing, isn’t it? If it wasn’t because Kennedy was handicapped, how would his grandfather find a wife for him? But he’s useless. He’s a cripple. Isn’t that a curse for a girl? But you can tell him I don’t mind doing it for him if he’s impotent.”
Just then, without warning, a cup of hot coffee was thrown in her face.
Charlotte put down the coffee cup and looked at him through gritted teeth. “You’re a playboy – what qualifies you to make random judgments about others? You have no idea what love is? And you even attack others with bad words, you’re evil!”
The people in the coffee shop were stunned at the sight, they looked on in amazement.
The cup of coffee was so hot that he was stunned for several seconds before he replied, “You dare to throw it at me?”
Then he stood up, raised his hand and prepared to strike Charlotte.
Charlotte stayed where she was. Her eyes were not afraid to meet his.
Before his hands touched Charlotte’s face, he stopped!
Nathan grabbed her hand. “If you want to hit her, you have to ask Mr. Kennedy if he agrees!”
Then, with force in hand, he threw Gerald.
Gerald knocked over the table next to him and sprawled on the floor.
Charlotte, however, was surprised by the incident and looked at Kennedy. She did not change her expression at Gerald’s slap. Now, she had a panicked expression on her face.
She held the corners of her dress tightly and looked at Kennedy in the wheelchair.
Why was he here?
He hadn’t left the office when she left, but how could he find her here?
Had he known all along?
Thinking of the words with which Kennedy had questioned her the night before, Charlotte suddenly felt that she was completely stupid.
Gerald stood up from the mess. He had been punched in the jaw and the corner of his mouth was oozing blood. When he got up, he wiped the corner of his mouth and then, with a sneer, picked up the chair next to him and threw it at him.
“Mr. Kennedy!” Nathan, who was standing not far from Gerald, hadn’t expected Gerald to be so mean.
“Ah.” Charlotte rushed straight to block in front of Kennedy.
Unexpectedly this stupid woman ran to hug his shoulders. She seemed to want to block for him. When she leaned forward, her soft hair hit his face, and the scent of femininity hit his breath as she came closer.
Kennedy was startled.
“What the hell are you doing? Get out of the way.” Seeing the chair thrown by Gerald coming this way, Kennedy darkened her eyes suddenly, grabbed the woman’s wrist, drew her into her arms, and then, with her other hand, turned the wheelchair quickly.
¡¡¡¡¡¡Bang!!!!!!
The thrown chair landed with a thud in the open space where the wheelchair had been.
The force was probably great, so the floor ended up with some marks.
The people in the restaurant almost had palpitations at the sight.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Kennedy avoided it with Charlotte.
“You despicable scumbag!” Nathan was relieved to see that Kennedy and Charlotte were okay. He grabbed Gerald’s neck angrily and punched him in the lower jaw.
Gerald was hit because he hadn’t expected it. Now he had reacted, so he fought with Nathan, struggling together.
Charlotte was still holding Kennedy’s neck tightly and closed her eyes tightly. She was so frightened that her little body trembled and even her eyelashes quivered. But, scared as she was, she didn’t let go of Kennedy.
“…How long are you going to hold me?” Kennedy asked in a slightly hoarse voice.
Kennedy was slightly absent minded.
He had been quite calm when the chair lunged toward him, as he might have moved slightly away, but this stupid woman had approached without thinking. Though she had been a nuisance and a nuisance to him, but the desperate act?
It was like a warm current that, along the bone and blood, submerged him little by little.
He opened his eyes in fear and looked around. There was no pain.
What was happening?
Noticing that he was holding Kennedy, Charlotte quickly pulled back and coughed, “Are you okay?”
Kennedy looked at her with cold eyes and her lips twitched. “I’m sorry…”
“Why are you sorry?” Kennedy narrowed her eyes and stared at her. “Don’t you know the danger, why are you pouncing?”
Charlotte, “……”
She didn’t want to.
She was afraid.
But, for a moment, she felt that she was his wife, and he was a cripple, so she couldn’t escape the attack. She couldn’t watch him being hurt in front of her.
“Do you know that your coming to me will be a burden to me?”
Charlotte moved her lips as if she was going to say something, but realizing that it was okay now because Kennedy had saved her, she kept silent.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t think that much.” Charlotte explained, pinching her fingers uncomfortably.
If she had known she would be a burden to him, she would never have pounced on him.
Seeing her aggrieved look, Kennedy couldn’t suddenly scold her.
It was a fact that she wanted to protect him from danger.
She became his burden. It was an accident.
Besides, how would she know he could evade it?
Then Kennedy looked at Charlotte in a complex way.
This woman… What was going through her mind?
Nathan had knocked Gerald down. Gerald was able to wrestle with him at first, but soon failed. After all, Nathan had practiced martial arts. Nathan dragged him to Kennedy by pulling on his colar.
“Mr. Kennedy, how do I deal with him?”
Kennedy looked at Gerald as if he were a dead man.
Hearing this, Gerald suddenly stared at him, “What do you mean?”
