Chapter 45
Warren’s pov
I did not expect Chris’s head injury to do anything to this man. I listened to Chris’s response with bated breath.
Kitty handed me a sliced steak. “Warren, try ….”
“Shut up!” How could I allow Kitty to interrupt me at this critical time?This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
“Warren …. ….” Kitty looked at me again, not daring to say a word.
Chris’s point of view
In the past, I would have been so happy.
Is not that the same as winning the lottery?
But my heart is “messy” and I subconsciously want to reject.
As soon as I look up, all I see is Kenneth walking towards me, and I meet him again.
This pair of cold eyes is dark ” and he radiates the coldness with which he rejects people who are thousands of miles away.
“Uncle….” I call out softly.
Kenneth’s pov
I sat next to her.
Mia was confused. “Brother Kenneth, what are you doing?”
“When you meet an acquaintance, you eat at this table. Do you mind?” I adjusted my sleeves and said.
“Of course not, Mr. White. Hello, we will see you again. Thanks for helping us last time.”
The corners of my mouth twisted into a playful smile, “Mr. White?”
“You are Chris’s brother-in-law, are not you, White?”
“Little Chris did not tell you about my relationship with her. How can my family be named White?”
“Your relationship?” Eland looked at me and Chris.
Chris’s Pov
Every time Kenneth calls me little Chris, he does not mean well.
“Chris, your relationship with this gentleman is….” Eland asked me.
My heart is tight and I do not know what to say. .
That is, whether I have a relationship with him in the same bed or whether I have a nameless relationship with Warren.
No matter what kind of relationship it is, I feel embarrassed to say it on such an occasion.
Warren only invited me over to fib with his family, not to fib as his wife.
Chris “licked” her lips and suddenly did not know how to answer.
Eland’s pov
“Chris, your relationship makes it hard for you to say?” I sensed something was off that night.
This man saw how Chris was hurting, and the horrible cold breath still makes me feel uneasy now when I think about it.
He walked away with Chris in his arms, but he broke the hands and feet of those who had hurt Chris.
Even though I do not know what this man is, I know he is not an easy man.
“We are ….” stuttered Chris.
Kenneth said lightly, “I am her uncle. What else is there besides relatives? Are you a couple?”
I am relieved at his relaxed tone. Yes, relatives. What else can there be?
I answer freely, “We are dating, as a matter of fact, I am courting Chris.”
Chris’s Pov
Kenneth’s hand under the table squeezed mine.
“So my little Chris said yes?” He looked at me like an elder, and only I saw the tremendous anger hidden in his eyes.
I feel like Kenneth will have to break my hand alive if I say yes now.
Before, his coldness made me think he really considers me a toy and throws me away when he is tired.
How much he pinches me now proves how angry he is. His hands hurt, and my heart inexplicably relaxes, as if all the haze clears away in that moment.
I avert my eyes from Kenneth and say wordlessly, “Eland, I am sorry, I can not promise you anything for now.”
Eland’s face was disappointed. “Why?”
Mia from the side answered first, “It’s very simple. Women also reject you because they have someone else in their heart.”
Eland’s face is even uglier, and I did not want to share my emotional experience in front of others.
Even I do not know what happened. Eland told me that I should be happy. How can I refuse that?
“I…. I do not want to fall in love for now, I am sorry, Eland.”
“It does not matter, I can wait for you.”
Eland’s pov
Considering that Chris works part-time day and night to earn money, she is a very hardworking person.
Maybe it’s because it’s only her first day at work and there are still many things to do. I can give her time.
Mia’s point of view
I did not bother to “interfere” in other people’s affairs, but looked at Kenneth, “Brother Kenneth, let us not interfere with other people’s love affairs, let us sit over there.”
“No, just sit here, it’s rare to meet acquaintances.”
“Why did not I know you had such a great niece?”
If Kenneth had not admitted Chris himself, I would have doubted their relationship.
Chris’s Pov
My heart is tight again. It seems that this woman named Mia knows nothing about Warren and me.
“So many words? Order some food.” Kenneth seems very impatient, and Mia is afraid to say more, so she has to order obediently.
Eland’s pov
I did not expect two people to date and eventually four people to get together, and the relationship is so weird that I can not force Chris to do anything with outsiders around.
Chris’s pov
“Brother Kenneth, you eat that.” I watch this woman named Mia give Kenneth something to eat.
Kenneth did not refuse to force Mia to be happy. “Brother Kenneth, do you want to go to the movies with me?”
“I have something to do later.”
“Brother Kenneth, you said you would take me out tonight just fine. I do not care, you will accompany me.” Mia began to flirt.
I do not know what her relationship is, but I am not very comfortable with the idea of two people walking together at night. “Alright, you eat first and I’ll go to the bathroom.”
I go to the bathroom and look at myself in the mirror, because my injured body has not recovered yet, and my face is still pale and haggard.
When I think of Mia’s charming face and her adorable figure, what will she do with Kenneth tonight?
Take a handful of clear water and dab it on my face. What does this have to do with me? Why am I thinking about her?
“Little Chris …. ….” Suddenly, a person’s voice rang in my ears, and I looked at Kenneth, who was standing behind me, in disbelief.
“You, how did you get in? This is the ladies’ room.”
“Of course I came in.” Kenneth spoke lightly, as if talking about the beautiful weather today.
“What if someone else sees it? Get out quick!”
“Out? But I just want to do one thing right now.”
I looked him in the hot eyes and asked cautiously, “What, what?”
“Fuck you.”
“Uncle, please, do not be here, OK?” I looked at Kenneth with tears in my eyes.
He unbuttoned me like a beast.
I refuse to sink slowly from the beginning, I feel crazy, I did such absurd things.
The sound of high heels came in and Kitty’s voice suddenly rang out.
“Chris.”
I was so startled I almost screamed. Kenneth was about to get to the point and I quickly made a stop action.
Kenneth frowned and really stopped.
“Chris, I know you are in there. Do not worry about it. I am not looking for trouble this time. I just want to apologize for misunderstanding you earlier. I am sorry, I did not know you had a boyfriend. I thought you were interested in Warren. I will not be angry with you in the future.”
I do not care about Kitty and Warren right now, I only care about how to face Kenneth!
“It’s over, I did not take it to heart, and you do not have to watch out for me. I really have no intention of meeting Mr. Warren. I have already made an agreement with Mr. Warren, six months at the most, when the time comes, I will find ways to separate, and there will be no entanglements in the future.”
“That’s good.” Kitty walks on high heels.
After Kitty’s interruption, the heat from earlier has also greatly reduced.
“Uncle, we should go back, or they’ll get suspicious.”
“Then who will put out the fire in my body?”
Kenneth leaned over my ear and said, “Put out the fire tonight, or I will tell Eland about my true relationship. With Kitty here and maybe Warren, you do not want them all to know, do you?”
“You…. threatened me.”
