Second Marriage

Chapter 33 There Is No Point in Apologizing

Charlotte had a dream at night.

She dreamed of what happened that night more than a month ago. The man hugged her strongly and

kissed her passionately and enthusiastically. She felt his hot breath and heard his low gasping.

She turned over and pulled back the quilt because she was hot, and then she opened her eyes.

It was already dawn, the sun shed a soft glow into the house from the window, and the air in the

morning was fresh.

It had been so long. Why would she dream of that man?

In her dream, the man was also very powerful.

But she could not hear his voice clearly anymore.

She wiped the sweat on her forehead and felt that her throat tickled. She covered her mouth and

coughed a few times. Then she suddenly remembered that Kennedy was still asleep, and took a peep

at him who was lying on the bed not far away.

Kennedy was sleeping, and she was afraid of waking him up, so she tried not to cough loudly.

However, she felt so uncomfortable with her throat, so she had to get up quickly and then eased into

the bathroom without wearing shoes.

She stayed in the bathroom and coughed for quite a while. And then she brushed her teeth.

Kennedy didn’t have a deep sleep, so he woke up when Charlotte turned over, but he didn't open his

eyes.

After a while, he heard that she was coughing and covered her mouth to make herself not cough loudly.

And then she moved into the bathroom quickly.

Immediately afterwards, a suppressed cough came from the bathroom, as if she didn't want him to hear

it.

However, the room was not so big, no matter how she suppressed her cough, he could still hear it.

Moreover, the surrounding environment was very quiet, and there was no noise, so he could hear her

cough clearly.

And then he thought about what Nathan said to him last night. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"Ms. Wilson is pregnant now. It seems that it’s not good for her health if she sleeps on the ground."

It was almost the autumn. And there was only a quilt for her on the ground. It was indeed not good for

her to sleep on the ground.

Kennedy opened his eyes and blinked, and then he closed his eyes.

But he was thinking that she was coughing in the bathroom.

After a while, he felt annoyed and pulled back the quilt. He glanced at the alarm clock and found that

there was one hour left before he had to get up.

Charlotte came out after brushing her teeth, and she found that Kennedy had gotten up. She felt a little

embarrassed suddenly, "Sorry. Did I bother you?"

Kennedy frowned after hearing that.

She was self-aware and knew that she had awakened him.

Charlotte was not used to sleeping in a bra at night. But she would rush into the bathroom to wear her

bra after she got up every morning. Today she did not care about it because she coughed just now.

Now she saw Kennedy and then thought that she did not wear a bra. Therefore, she felt embarrassed.

"Since you knew that you would awaken me, why didn’t you keep quiet?"

Faced with his accusation, Charlotte couldn't refute it, because she really woke him up. Therefore, she

could only lower her head and pinch the corner of her clothes and then said to him in a low voice, "I'm

sorry..."

Sorry?

She looked weak, which made Kennedy even unhappier.

Didn’t she know how to fight back? She couldn’t control the cough herself! Didn’t she know how to

refute?

"There is no point in apologizing!"

Charlotte lowered her head and did not know what to say. She felt uncomfortable as Kennedy looked at

her coldly, and she really wanted to go back into the bathroom.

Kennedy did not know why he always thought that Charlotte was completely different from what he had

imagined.

He thought that she would fight back when she was bullied. However, she did not know how to fight

back at all. What’s more, she looked grieved.

"I did not intend to awaken you." Finally, she glanced at Kennedy with her head up and said to him.

Kennedy's thin lips pressed tightly into a straight line.

"Come here."

Why? Charlotte was scared and dared not to come up to him.

Because she did not wear a bra.

Thinking about this, Charlotte bit her lower lips and stood there without moving.

Kennedy tried not to be angry, and then he said, "Are you deaf?"

Charlotte felt helpless and walked towards him. However, every step she took was like stepping on the

tip of a knife. She was so awkward that even Kennedy felt speechless.

She bent down while walking towards him, and almost squatted to the ground.

Kennedy looked at her and wanted to pull her with his hands, which made her scared and then squat to

the ground directly.

Kennedy’s hands stopped in the air, and he was almost mad.

After a while, he frowned, "What are you doing?"

Charlotte just squatted on the ground still.

"What?"

"I...... I just have a stomachache. " Finally, she made an excuse, because she didn't intend to stand up

anyway.

Kennedy frowned again, "Stomachache?"

And then he thought about what Nathan said to him last night again. Did she have a cold?

Thinking about this, Kennedy felt a bit annoyed.

He did not say anything, and Charlotte was still on the ground.

After a long time, they just kept in their original posture.

Kennedy had leg problems, so he could only sit without Nathan’s help, and Charlotte didn't dare to get

up, so they could only remain in a stalemate.

As Charlotte squatted on the ground for such a long time, her legs got a little numb. So she looked at

Kennedy and hoped that he could help her.

However, he did not move, so she dared not to move either.

"Why do you look at me? I cannot help you."

After he said to her, Charlotte realized that he could not stand up by himself as he had leg problems.

She asked him, "Why did you ask me to come up to you?"

Kennedy did not reply.

"Why?"

"Don’t you have a stomachache?"

Charlotte was a bit embarrassed. She nodded and said, "Yes. But I feel better now. What can I do for

you?"

"Help me take the wheelchair here."

He looked at the wheelchair not far away. Charlotte realized that he wanted to sit in the wheelchair, and

then she stood up slowly, "Please wait a minute."

And then she took the wheelchair for him.

"Help me stand up."

Kennedy looked at her face with his head up, "Can you do it?"

After confirming the distance between the wheelchair and the bed, Charlotte nodded and said,

"Maybe...... I can have a try."

And then she got close to him to help him.

"My legs have no strength. You can squat down a little, so that I can stand up by leaning against your

shoulders."

"OK!" Charlotte did not refuse his request, and then she bent down.

Kennedy leaned his hands on her shoulder so that he could stand up. However, Kennedy was 6’1’’ tall,

while Charlotte’s height was just less than 5’5’’. She was so petite, so she almost could not stand still

when Kennedy leaned his hands on her shoulders with strength.

Kennedy’s forehead was full of sweat, and he took back his hands and said, "Forget it. I don’t think you

can help me."

Charlotte bit her lower lip when she heard that, "No, I can. I did not stand firm just now. Let’s try one

more time."

However, Kennedy did not move suddenly but just stared at her.

And Charlotte found that he was looking at her breast.
