Chapter 2

2154 Words
Just as Kevin was about to get in the car, he saw Hannah and a very handsome male doctor hurriedly walking towards the clinic. He stood at the door and fixed his tidy hair in front of the mirror. Then, he hurriedly walked over and pretended to meet them by chance. "What a coincidence. Are you looking for Amy?" Kevin said to Hannah. Upon seeing him, Hannah instinctively hid behind Andy as if she were avoiding a plague. "Andy?" Kevin looked at Andy in surprise. His attention had been focused on Hannah. He didn't even notice that the male doctor was Andy. "Kevin, it's been a while since we met last time," Andy said to Kevin, not so warmly. They weren't close, after all. "Indeed, it's been a while. I heard you went abroad. When did you come back? By the way, are you looking for Amy?" None of his sentences mattered to him. The point was to pick up Hannah. "You are one of Andy's acquaintances. I thought you were a bad person!" Only then did Hannah come out from behind Andy. Two women had thought he was a bad guy in one day. Kevin felt hurt twice. "Of course I'm not a bad person. Andy and I are alumni. He knows me. I may not be a wonderful man, but I'm definitely not a bad person." Kevin defined himself. Andy, though, did not comment on what he said. "Do you know where Amy is? I heard that she was injured. I looked everywhere, but I couldn't find her." Hannah acted as usual now. "She left. I was with her until she got in the car." Kevin peeked at Hannah. She was not very beautiful, but cute enough. She was nothing like any woman he had met before. "She left? How is she? Is her injury severe? When can she recover? Can she come to work tomorrow?" As soon as Hannah heard that Amy had left, she asked rapid-fire questions. Kevin looked at her. He really didn't know which question to answer first. It was a series of questions. "Mr. Carter has given her some days off starting from tomorrow. She doesn't need to go back to work until her hands fully heal. That's all I know." While saying this, Kevin was thinking about how to ask Hannah's name. Hannah and Andy were both disappointed. They had come to pay Amy a visit, but they didn't see her. "You can call her. I was here with her all the while. Her injury looked pretty serious at first, but after the doctor applied some ointment to her hands, it was alleviated. The doctor used the best ointment," Kevin helpfully explained to the two of them. Hearing that there was nothing serious now, they felt relieved. "Andy, I'm going home. When you are free, come to my house for dinner." Hannah turned to Andy. "Let me drive you. I'm on the same way," Kevin immediately offered. Andy glanced at Kevin and found the way he looked at Hannah was special. However, Andy was not worried. Kevin and he were alumni, and they grew up together. He knew Kevin only looked like a playboy. In fact, he wasn't like that. "Alright, Hannah, you can go with Mr. Smith. I have to go to work." Andy decided to give Kevin a chance. "I go with him?" Hannah looked at Kevin with disdain, but Kevin's eyes were filled with sincerity. "Fine." Since her cousin said so, she thought Andy should be reliable. "This way. My car is over there." Kevin was on cloud nine. He felt like jumping up with joy. He walked behind Hannah and felt just seeing her back could bring him enough happiness. He gallantly opened the car door and let Hannah sit inside. "Hannah, where do you live?" Kevin got in the car and realized that he didn't know where Hannah lived. "It's No. 48, North Alley." Hannah deliberately gave him the wrong address. She couldn't let him know where she lived. Once she got off the car, she could walk back home. But when they arrived at No. 47, North Alley, Kevin stopped the car. "Alright, here we are. You can go up yourself. I'm going home," Kevin said to Hannah. "How did you know I live here?" Hannah stared at Kevin in surprise. He had to be a genius to know that she had told him the wrong number. Actually, Kevin was just guessing. He expected that Hannah would not tell him the correct address. He guessed her address was either No. 47 or No. 49. He tried No. 47 and didn't expect it to be correct. "It's not important. What's important is that you're home safely. Alright, go. Or your parents will get worried." After saying that, he drove away without looking back. Just this small action had greatly changed Hannah's opinion towards him. Perhaps Kevin himself did not expect that his image had improved in Hannah's eyes. ***** When Amy got home, Robin was waiting for her at the door. Seeing that Amy's hands were wrapped tightly, Robin felt sad. Ever since Amy came here, she had been injured quite often. He wondered if Richard and she were really a good match for each other. He helped Amy into the house and cooked soup for her according to Richard's instructions, so that her skin could recover as soon as possible. Richard did not come to the villa for the next few days. After he took Allison home, he stayed in his own apartment. He didn't know why Allison had come back right now. Her return didn't make him happy. On the contrary, he felt annoyed. He was reluctant to divorce Amy now. When they signed the contract, he thought everything would be under his control. But things didn't go as he thought. His feelings for her were getting more and more uncontrollable. Lying on the bed, Amy looked at her injured hands and wondered why her husband hadn't come home these days. Was he sick? The truth was, she knew little about him. Even if he was sick, she wouldn't know. He would rather endure it. Amy felt bad for him. He was ugly and was alone when he was sick. As his wife, she didn't take care of him. In addition, she often thought of Mr. Carter. Amy thought what she did was outrageous. She was married to her husband, so she should accept him. How could she still have feelings for another man? Contract Marriage With Mysterious President ###Chapter 52 A Lady Wants to See You "Richard, I want to work in your company. I have nothing to do after I came back. I feel bored to stay idle." Allison sat beside Richard. "Work in my company? You can work in the Field Group, can't you? Why don't you help your brother with business?" Hearing that Allison wanted to work in his company, Richard instinctively rejected her. "Richard, I can see you every day if I work in HD Group. Don't you want to see me?" Allison pursed her lips. Anyone would compromise just looking at her. "I'll inform your brother. If I let you work in HD Group without his consent, I guess he will get angry." Richard looked at Allison, and his heart softened. "He won't. I'll tell him. Richard, we had a deal. Just tell me when to start. My brother never says no to me." Realizing Richard agreed, Allison was very happy. She wanted to stay by Richard's side and would not let any other woman have an opportunity to get close to him. Allison's office was settled in Richard's. She had replaced Amy. Of course, Amy didn't know about this. She was still recuperating at home. Although the injury was severe, the medicine she used was the best. Therefore, it didn't take long for Amy's hands to recover. "Mrs. Carter, it's time for breakfast." A servant had been arranged to feed Amy, but Amy refused. She managed to eat with only two fingers these days. "Alright." She could have the gauze removed from her hands today. The doctor said that her hands had recovered. After breakfast, Robin took Amy to the hospital and had the gauze removed. Her hands were even fairer and smoother than before. Amy looked at her hands happily. It was like she had new hands. Excited, she intended to go downstairs to share her joy with Robin. When she was waiting for the elevator, she observed her hands again. At this time, the doors of the elevator opened, and the two people inside came into her sight through the gaps between Amy's fingers. Richard was tall and handsome. Allison was beautiful. They looked like a perfect match just by standing there together. "Mr. Carter, Miss Field," Amy greeted them. Richard instinctively felt a little guilty. Although he did not show it on his face, he felt as if he had been caught in cheating behind Amy. "Amy, I'm really sorry about your hands. How are you doing?" When Allison saw Amy, she immediately walked to her warmly and grabbed Amy's hands. But she was shocked. How could it be? Weren't her hands supposed to have ugly scars after being burned so badly? But now, Amy's hands were fair and smooth. "They have recovered. I came to have the gauze removed. I can come to work tomorrow. Thank you for the days off, Mr. Carter." Amy lowered her eyes and pulled back her hands. Allison smiled awkwardly. She turned to Richard and said with feigned sadness, "Richard, Amy is still angry with me." Amy was disgusted by Allison's hypocrisy. However, clearly, Mr. Carter liked her, so why did she care? "I'm leaving." Amy didn't want to see Allison anymore, so she entered the elevator. Richard had been quiet all the while. He did not know what to say. Looking at Amy's thin figure, he put his arm around Allison's shoulder and left with her. Amy didn't know why she was in such a bad mood. What was wrong with her? Why did she feel this way? Richard was a big shot and had nothing to do with her. However, when she saw Allison and him together, she was very sad. "Robin, I'm back. Look, my hands are completely healed." Seeing Robin waiting for her, Amy felt warm and touched. She was married, but she still thought of another man. It was unfair to her husband. "That's good." Robin was relieved. Richard had given him orders to take good care of Amy. If anything happened to her, it would mean trouble. "Robin, has my husband been ill recently?" Amy asked Robin in the car. Robin did not expect Amy to care about her husband. For a moment, he did not know how to answer her. "Perhaps he's been busy. Mr. Carter is in good shape. He hardly gets sick." Robin was quick. "That's a relief." Upon hearing that her husband was not sick, Amy felt relieved, but she still had questions. He was busy? What could he be busy with? "Mrs. Carter, there is a lady who wants to invite you to have tea today. She came to the villa the other day. You met her, remember? I'm taking you there now." When waiting for Amy, Robin received a call from Cathy. She wanted to meet with Amy. "She wants to see me?" Amy remembered who the lady was. That day, she had mistaken the woman for her mother. "Yes," Robin nodded. "Alright." Amy liked her. She was beautiful and had a good personality. She was as nice to her as her own mother. Robin took Amy to the tea house and waited outside for her. "Amy, we haven't seen each other for a long time, have we?" As soon as Amy entered, she was hugged by someone before she could see who it was. While the lady she was here to meet remained in her seat, smiling and looking at her. Seeing Amy quite composed, Hilary let go of her and realized that she was overreacting. "What's wrong, Amy? Don't you recognize me?" Hilary looked at Amy. It took a while before Amy remembered that Hilary was the colleague she met on her first day at work, but Amy didn't see her again in HD Group. "You are Hilary!" On that day they met, Hilary was also so enthusiastic. "That's right, I am Hilary. Great, you finally recognized me. I'm afraid you've forgotten me. Come sit here. This is my mother." Hilary introduced Cathy to Amy. Amy nodded to Cathy and sat opposite her. "Amy, how are you? If you still miss your mother, you can give me a call and talk to me more often. You can regard me as your mother!" Tears already streamed down Amy's cheeks when she heard Cathy's warm words. Contract Marriage With Mysterious President
