Contract Marriage With The Disabled CEO
Chapter 96 The Handkerchief âI⦠I have already tried to contact Mr. Thomas, but he is currently abroad attending a design conferenc e. His cell phone was off, so I canât reach him for the time being.â
âTry to contact him!â Kerwin growled. âThen let him come back to see me right away!â
The man turned white with fear. âYes, Mr. Martin.â
Kerwin, who was in no mood to work, quickly rolled out of the room.
Peter hurried to catch up with him.
âHas Betty come home yet?â he asked coldly.
âLillian just called and said sheâs home.â
Kerwinâs face softened a little, but suddenly he realized that he was still holding the handkerchief in his hand. He immediately threw it
to Peter with disgust. âThrow it away, and buy the factory that made it. I donât want to see that handkerchief appear in the world again.â
Peter looked puzzled. âBut Mr. Thomasâ¦â
âDo as I say at once!â
By the time Kerwin got home, Betty was asleep.
She shared a bed with him last night and did not slept well. Today she was so tired that she went to sleep right after dinner.
Kerwin walked in and found Betty lying in bed in the strappy backed silk dress heâd had Lillian buy for h er, wrapped in a quilt. Her thin shoulders and back were exposed.
He frowned slightly.
Betty had a habit of hugging the quilt instead of pulling it over her. Sometimes when he woke up at nigh t, he would cover her so that she would not catch a cold.
But Lillian bought her a revealing dress, which would make her more likely to get sick.
After Kerwin closed the door, he got up from his wheelchair. As soon as he reached the bed to help Bet ty with the quilt, she rolled over and revealed her back.
For a moment, Kerwin was surprised. He now understood why the maid bought this nightwear for her.
It was a black lowâcut slip dress, which was embroidered with delicate patterns. It gave a nice contrast to Bettyâs fair skin and set off her slende r figure.
He smiled when he saw how beautiful his wife looked in the nightdress.
Suddenly, the woman rubbed her sleepy eyes.âKerwin?â
When she saw him standing next to the bed, Betty was at first surprised, but soon she was calm. âYouâr e back.â
Chapter 96 The Handkerchief When she got home, she was so tired that she fell asleep quickly. Now that she saw her husband, she i mmediately remembered what Jessica had told her during the day.
Kerwin didnât speak right away, but picked up the quilt to cover Bettyâs body. âWear more clothes when you sle ep in case you might catch a cold,â he whispered.
She looked down at her new dress and blushed. âIâm going away for a day. When I got back, Lillian threw away all my old pajamas. This is the only one left.â
Betty regretted going to her apartment yesterday. She didnât get anything. Instead, Lillian threw her clot hes away. Sure enough, she was no match for these servants who worked for rich people.
âHow is your wound?â asked Kerwin. He then grabbed Bettyâs arm and saw the crooked bandages, fro wning. âYou havenât changed it?â
Chapter 96 The Handkerchief Betty flinched slightly. âIâll change it right away.â
Then she tried to get out of bed, but Kerwin held her down. âLet me help you. Iâm afraid it wonât be easy for you to apply the medication with your left hand.â
He quickly returned with swabs and medicine.
Betty couldnât remember how many times Kerwin had changed her dressing since she was injured She looked up and saw his handsome face in a stupor for a few seconds.
From this position, she noticed Kerwinâs long, thick eyelashes and obsidian eyes. As a girl, Betty didnât t hink she was as attractive as he was.
Watching him so focused, she suddenly thought about her day in the office. âKerwin, can I ask you som ething?â
He was busy applying medicine to her wound and did not look up.
âDid that necklace belong to your former girlfriend?â Betty plucked up the courage to ask.
Hearing her, Kerwin stopped his movements, but soon he continued to rub the ointment on her wound âYes,â he said flatly.
Betty was surprised that he did not refuse to answer the question. She was so relieved.
âYou must like her very much.â
This time, Kerwin looked up at her. His dark eyes were deep and showed no emotion. âWhy do you ask that?â asked he quietly.
âI find you look sad every time you look at that necklace,â she whispered and regretted asking him abou His eyes glittered, then he looked down and continued the application.
Just when Betty thought Kerwin didnât want to continue the subject, he spoke up again.
âI feel sorry for her.â
It took Betty several seconds to realize what Kerwin had said.
Her heart gave a shiver. Did he really abandon Julia ten years ago to survive the fire? So thatâs why he f Noâ¦. it canât be. She shook her head, not daring to ask him more.
At Martin familyâs old mansion, Bruce had gone to bed early.
Henry was still in his study. Before him stood a bent man whose face could not be clearly seen in the lig âAre you serious? Kerwin really had sex with his wife?â Henry looked very gloomy. âThe damn cripple!â
âSure enough,â said the man standing in front of the desk. âOld Bruce is concerned about it, so I watch t âDamn it!â Henry smashed the table, his eyes blazing. âIf all goes well, that woman Betty might have Kerwinâs child soon.â
