Contract Marriage With The Disabled CEO

Chapter 40 Kerwin’s Best Friend

The next morning, Betty and Kerwin were having breakfast in the dining room. Looking at her.

Kerwin suddenly asked, “How was your sleep last night?”

“Not bad.” Betty looked up. “Why are you asking me that?”

“I was afraid you’d be scared and not sleep well if I was around.” Kerwin took a sip of coffee and looked calm. “I can move into the guest room if you want.”

Betty froze for a moment before realizing Kerwin was referring to the other night and blushed. She said, “We’re a couple, so it’s okay that we live together.”

Kerwin looked at Betty. “Don’t you blame me for what I did to you that night?”

He still remembered how uncomfortable he was to see Betty’s fear and resistance when he approached her that night.

Betty looked at Kerwin with some embarrassment. “Nope. You did it for a reason too.”

“A reason?” said Kerwin, suddenly raising an eyebrow. “What reason?”

“Huh?” Betty didn’t expect Kerwin to ask her that and felt embarrassed. Under Kerwin’s gaze, she said stiffly, “Because I humiliated you the other night and mentioned Jeffrey, it was normal for you to be mad. After all, I am your wife.”

Kerwin’s eyebrows raised even higher.

Although Betty’s words were subtle, he figured it out.

Betty thought that he did that to her that night because he was possessive.

Kerwin suddenly couldn’t help but chuckle.

Betty thought she had said something wrong, so she asked, embarrassed, “What’s wrong? What’s so funny?”

Looking at Betty, Kerwin began to ponder.

He had never been one who liked to deny. His earlier concern for Betty and his jealousy after learning about Jeffrey made him realize that he seemed to have feelings for her.

He thought he would have stopped being attracted to anyone long ago after all these years, but he didn’t expect the one to come along. Fortunately, the one was his wife.

Unfortunately, she seemed to be a little slow and unaware of it.

Should I just tell her how I feel and make her mine? Or should I take my time and steal her heart?

Kerwin smiled bitterly in his heart.

It had been too long since he had been this attached to a woman. At this moment, he felt that it was more difficult to show Betty his feelings than to deal with those millions of dollars of business.

Therefore, he decided to take his time.

Looking at Betty, Kerwin smiled and said, “If you say so.”

..

Betty did not understand the meaning of Kerwin’s words, so she could only nod her head.

Kerwin looked at her dumbfounded look as he smiled and whispered, “It’s Saturday tomorrow; are you free? A friend of mine is coming over for dinner.”

“A friend?” Betty was stunned.

“Yeah.” Kerwin looked down. “What? You don’t want to see my family, but you can see my friends,

right?”

Betty gave an awkward smile. “Stop it. I’m free tomorrow.”

The next day, Betty and Maria worked in the kitchen all morning. At noon, the guest finally arrived.

The guest said in an aggressive tone, “Gee! Kerwin, your room looks more lively since you got married.”
