Chapter 35
Chris’s Pov
I was about to move away, but Kenneth grabbed my waist and deepened the kiss.
I was so nervous, he still has so much leisure and whimsy to do such a thing. I hurried and my fingers kept bumping against his chest to push him away.NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
“What room is Chris in, please?” Warren’s slightly concerned voice rings out .
“Miss Chris is in this ward.”
I shoved Kenneth away. “You will leave immediately.”
“It seems I can not leave now.” He looked at me and spread his hands.
I quickly pushed him toward the bathroom. “I do not care about that. If you dare come out, I’ll jump out of the building!”
“You dare threaten me?” He raised his eyebrows and said.
“Kenneth, I beg you.” I show weakness.
“Be so good as to spare your life.” Kenneth gave me a quick kiss on the lip.
Shortly after I pushed him in, I was relieved. Before I could go back to bed, Warren’s voice rang in my ears. “Chris, are you okay?”
I stroked the sweat on my head. “I am fine.”
“Why are not you resting if you had surgery yesterday?”
“Chris, lie down and rest.” Sally came in and helped me lie down.
“Does the wound still hurt?” asked Warren guiltily.
Originally, it hurt a little. I did not feel anything when I was so scared. “It does not hurt.”
“You have really gone too far, is something more important to you than our wife? If anything happens to Chris, see how I take care of you. You have a good wife, but you do not know how to appreciate her.
“Mama, I know I was wrong and I will not do it again.”
“If you dare bully Chris again, your grandfather will not let you go.
I like Sally a lot, even though I did not have much contact with her before, and I felt very comfortable in the Wilson family, even though I was only married to Warren for a few days.
“Mom, it’s okay. I did not tell Warren’s brother I was sick. Before I went to the hospital, I thought it was just a simple physical ache. Warren was very busy with his work and should not have let these things distract him.” I quickly explained to my father.
Sally took my hand and said, “Chris, you can not be too considerate of this man. If it’s time to flirt with him, then let him spend more time with you.”
“Mom, I will be spending more time with Chris in the future, so do not worry about it.” Warren looked at me and said to Sally.
“Well, since it’s okay, do not blame Warren. Men should put their careers first, and it’s rare that the daughter-in-law” women “is so considerate.” Thank goodness Warren’s father was speaking, or I would not know what to say.
Sally looked at me, sighed, and said, “Chris, have a good rest. If you want something, have Warren do it. Mom and Dad will join a foundation later and come visit you later.”
I felt a lot more comfortable when I heard they were leaving. “OK, You can count on having Warren’s brother.”
I did not breathe a sigh of relief until they had left.
Looking at Warren, I said, “Mr. Warren, it’s getting late. Get to work. There are nurses to take care of me. I….”
“You do not like me that much?” Warren looked at me frowning.
Seeing that Warren had misunderstood me, I quickly explained, “Mr. Warren, that is not the case. I am afraid Miss Kitty will misunderstand.”
Warren’s pov
Do you see Chris’s excited face? Last night she suffered so much, but she still let me go because she does not appreciate her own body?
Before, I had been worried that the woman I had found would stick to me, and even jump at the chance to be the real Mrs. Wilson.
Who’s to say I have not already alienated her, because Chris is trying his hardest to avoid me.
Chris’s Pov
When my cell phone rang, I glanced at the message, which turned out to be sent by Kenneth. “Let us talk about ending the contract now. If you do not talk about it, I will come and talk about it.” There is a strong threat in those words.
I look at Warren and say, “Mr. Warren, I have mentioned before that we can not do this all the time. There should be a time limit in the contract. When the time comes, we can argue emotionally or make me out to be a bad wife. That way you can pretend you are hurt and do not want to get married for the time being, and your uncles and aunts will not” force you to remarry in the last few years.”

She even thought of the reason. Apparently, that’s what I have been dating her for. Why do I feel so miserable right now saying this about Chris?
“What about you?” i asked.
“Me?” She does not understand what I mean.
“If you are portrayed as a bad woman, are not you afraid you’ll never marry again?” I pressed the unfortunate into my heart.
“We will talk about the future later.”
I opened my lips to refuse, but what reason do I have to refuse? Do I want her to play with herself for a lifetime?
“A year.” I close my eyes and say a deadline.
Chris’s Pov
Just as I am about to reply, the phone vibrates and I look at another message from Kenneth: “Three months.” Kenneth is always a time bomb and I dare not disobey him.
“A year is too long, three months,” I tell Warren.
Warren frowns. “Three months? No, that’s too short a time. You have seen the way my mother acts towards you.”
“So…. six months then?” I am very embarrassed myself. Warren gave the White family at least thirty million. Is three months too short?
“Half a year for now then, we can talk about the reason later.” He said to me with a sigh of relief.
“I thank you Mr. Warren for showing up when the White family needed help the most and giving me a chance to leave.”
“The person I should be thanking is you. My mother is very fond of you. Do not talk about these things, get a good rest.”
Warren stood up and covered me. “Are you hungry? What would you like to eat?”
In the old days, I would have been polite and said no. Considering Kenneth was still in the bathroom, I nodded and said, “I am hungry. Mr. Warren, can you buy me some gruel?”
“What flavor do you like?”
“Anything’s fine, I am never picky about food.”
“Wait for me.”
With those two words, Warren got up and left, looking like he was going to buy me a gruel himself.
As soon as Warren left, the bathroom door opened and Kenneth appeared with a cold face.
“Who gave you the courage to extend the term to half a year? Can you imagine me going to the Wilson family now to announce our relationship?”
