Second Marriage

Chapter 244 I Won't Push You

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. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

"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.

"If you want to find Kennedy, then I can tell you frankly, last night, he did not call you once."

Charlotte froze and looked up incredulously at Manfred.

"Disappointed? Or painful? You didn't come home all night and he didn't call."

Charlotte, “......"

She lowered her head and looked at her mobile phone. Sure enough, the phone was quiet and there

was no phone.

Manfred approached her and said in a low voice, “Your marriage is a trade, but... have you had a

feeling to him in this marriage?"

“No!” Charlotte suddenly raised her head and denied.

She did not have a feeling to him. Kennedy did not care about her, if she got a feeling, it would be a

joke.

“Who would believe you if you denied it so quickly and so vehemently?” Manfred smiled bitterly , "You

do have a feeling to Kennedy."

He said firmly, without giving Charlotte a chance to deny it.

"But did it ever occur to you that between you...there's no way." Manfred held her shoulder, seriously

staring at her, “You can never be with him!"

“Let me go!” Charlotte whispered.

Manfred did not let go and Charlotte directly shouted loudly at him, “I said let go of me!"

Manfred gently loosen his hand. Charlotte directly jumped out of bed with her mobile phone.

But because of the after-effects of the fever, she felt dizzy and fell straight forward.

Bang!

Charlotte directly fell on the ground. Manfred’s face changed, and he rushed over to help her,

“Charlotte, are you all right?"

"Let me go." Charlotte forcefully pushed his hand away, "I don't need you to care about my business.

You are just my big brother. Even if Kennedy doesn't like me, it has nothing to do with you!"

With that, Charlotte tried hard to push Manfred away.

Manfred was pushed straight back by her. His back hit the cold wall. He looked at Charlotte with a

painful face, “But I don't want to be your big brother."

Charlotte didn't want to talk to him anymore. Instead, she turned around and was to walk out. Although

her steps were staggered, she still walked out step by step.

Manfred stared at her back for a long time, and finally could not help catching up, sighed.

"I'll take you home."

"No." Charlotte shook off his hand. "It has nothing to do with you."

"If you hate me talking about it, I won't talk about it anymore." Manfred directly raised his hand to hold

her up, regardless of her struggle and push. He said calmly, “You are too weak now and should have to

be hospitalized, but if you do not want to, I will send you back now and I absolutely will not force you to

do anything!"

The last sentence made Charlotte calm. She lifted her eyes to look at Manfred’s side face, suddenly

she did not speak again.

"Be quiet." He sighed helplessly, and then held Charlotte to leave from the hospital. When he got to the

parking lot, he opened the door to put her in carefully. He bent down to tie her safety belt, and then

lifted his eyes to look at her.

"Remember, Charlotte, I will not force you to do anything. No matter when, if you need help, I can do

anything you want me to do."
