Chapter 96:
Charlotte told her location and then waited for her.
After twenty minutes Diana arrived. When the car stopped, Charlotte quickly got in, opened the door and sat inside.
“What’s up?”
“Let’s go to the company first, I’m going to be late. I’ll talk to you on the way.” Diana could only turn around quickly.
“Why did Kennedy suddenly confiscate your phone, did you offend him, or expose yourself?”
Charlotte shook her head, “No, I didn’t expose anything, but we had a fight last night.”
“Tell me what happened.”
Charlotte didn’t dare say too many details, just the reason why they fought.
“He really doesn’t like you. He always says spiteful words to you.”
Hearing that ‘he doesn’t like you’, Charlotte felt annoyed, “Yes, he must really hate me.”
“According to the current situation, you didn’t expose yourself and didn’t say anything strange, so he couldn’t have found anything. After all, we’re the only two people who know, right?”
Charlotte nodded solemnly, “I only told you.”
“I guess he just wanted to tease you, after all, he wants you to pay the price, which must make you suffer all sorts of tortures.”
“Diana, now is not the time to analyze this. The phone is in his hands, the chat logs of us will be found.”
“Why didn’t you delete the log afterwards?”
Charlotte also felt she wasn’t careful enough, “I deleted it before, but I didn’t delete the latest contents, and I didn’t know he would suddenly take my phone.”
“What should we do now? He took your phone and refused to give it back, you can only hope he didn’t look at your phone.”
Charlotte reached up to wring her sore forehead. Diana looked at her helplessly and couldn’t help but curse, “You’re stupid. If you had deleted the records, there would be nothing to worry about.”
Charlotte said nothing.
“I’ll take you to the company first. Don’t worry.”
Diana then handed her a phone, “Use this phone first.”
Charlotte nodded, “Mm! How about you?”
“This is my backup phone, I still have my main phone.”
“Okay.”
“We’re almost there, call me if you need help. Try to get your phone back.”
After Charlotte got out of the car, she looked worriedly back at Diana, who waved her hand, “Get in.”
Only then did Charlotte take a step to get in.
She took a deep breath and told herself to be calm.
After entering the company, Charlotte went up to her station and found the office quiet, so she got up to make a cup of coffee and send it to Kennedy.
When she pushed the door open, she found Kennedy’s eyes resting calmly on the computer screen, fingers tapping away at the keyboard, looking extremely focused.
Charlotte turned her eyes away, pursed her lips slightly and placed the coffee on her desk.
“Mr. Kennedy, your coffee.”
He didn’t even answer her, and Charlotte wanted to ask when he would return her phone.
But she had to be calm.
So she put the coffee down and left the office.
She was as quiet as if he hadn’t come, so she couldn’t help looking up and staring at the coffee cup.
She didn’t ask for the phone.
Kennedy squinted and pulled the phone out of his pocket.
This phone was very old, even if it was thrown away, it wasn’t a loss. But last night she looked scared when she saw that the phone was gone, so she especially wanted to find out the secrets inside this phone.
But she never opened it.
She wasn’t interested in finding out other people’s secrets.
If her ex-husband hadn’t made that call to her, she wouldn’t have confiscated the phone.
If she returned the phone, her ex-husband would call her again and they would get in touch.
Thinking about this, Kennedy had no hesitation and made a call to Nathan.
“Go buy a new phone card.”
Although Nathan didn’t know what to do, he did as he was told.
When Charlotte returned to her post, she breathed a sigh of relief.
When her phone rang, Charlotte pulled it out and looked at it. It was a text message from Diana asking how she was doing.
Charlotte told her what had happened and Diana gave her a thumbs up and told her not to provoke Kennedy on the day, but that she had to take advantage of the opportunity.
Charlotte put the phone away and was listless all day.
She was afraid Kennedy would discover her secret, but she tried to keep absolutely silent when confronted by Kennedy, and never mentioned the phone again.
And it seemed that Kennedy had forgotten about this matter as well.
As the end of the day approached, Kennedy suddenly asked her to join a party.
Charlotte wrinkled her eyebrows slightly.
“Mr. Kennedy, isn’t this a private dinner? It doesn’t seem to have anything to do with me.”
Kennedy raised cold eyebrows, “Attend as my plus one, and then I’ll return your phone.”
Hearing that, Charlotte couldn’t help biting her lower lip.
He was threatening her again.
She raised her head to stare into his eyes, “How do I know if you’re going to lie to me? After all……”
Last night he lied to her. He said he’d give her the phone back after a kiss.
But he didn’t.
“Don’t you want it?” Kennedy scoffed, “We’ll drive past Lake Henswe to the party. If you don’t come, I’ll throw it right out.”
As the words tumbled out, Kennedy directly rolled the wheelchair away from her forehead.
Charlotte’s eyes widened, and she quickly followed, “I’ll go with you.” The woman behind him was furious but helpless. She couldn’t help but smile.
Nathan handed Charlotte a box.
“Assistant Wilson, this is the dress for the banquet.”
Charlotte took it and went to the bathroom to change, and reluctantly turned to Kennedy.
Kennedy’s black eyes had light in them. He squinted to look at Charlotte standing in front of him.
The sash style outlined the shape of her waist, which accentuated the shape of her body. Kennedy knew this woman had a good body shape, but normally her style of dress hid it.
After touching her, he realized she was not as flat as she appeared on the surface.
