Chapter 49 Miss, Who Are You
Still feeling downcast, Ken lowered his head and leaned against the wall. He refused to meet Kerr's piercing gaze.
"My father is serious this time. If I don't marry the daughter of the Wen family, he will kick me out of the Qin family. Now he has suspended all the assets in my account,"
he gloomily confided. It never occurred to him that the situation would turn rather serious this time. Considering his father's firm attitude, he did not want to compromise at all. His father had left him with no other choice. After all, marriage was an important event in a person's life.
He wouldn't marry a person he didn't like. It was not his thing. He would preferably go roaming alone, which was much better than being bothered by a nuisance all day long.
"What's your plan?"
Kerr inquired. There was a fleeting and complicated emotion in his eyes when he learned his predicament. But sadly, Ken couldn't disobey his father's will. So even though he sympathized with him, he couldn't help him against his father's will.
Ken instantly raised his head and looked at him with total disbelief.
"Really? Bro, don't you want to help me?"
Ken had anticipated that Kerr would offer to support him without hesitation, but with the way he acted now, it was apparent that he didn't care about him.
"It's your own business," Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Kerr uttered dismissively before turning around and headed into the ward, leaving Ken feeling all alone on the same spot.
When he emerged from the door outside, he observed how Nicole struggled with the food in front of her. She was munching her food in a way too fast that clearly showed she was starving.
He suddenly felt regretful, thinking it was his fault that he forgot to remind her to grab some breakfast before heading for work.
But when he recalled what transpired that morning, he couldn't help pulling a long face.
"I'm so full..."
Nicole touched her round belly, feeling hugely satisfied. Her face showed she was pleased as she mulled over that there was nothing in the world that can't be solved by food.
"What... Have you had breakfast?"
Strangely, she asked him out of her impulse when she recognized Kerr walking towards her, the moment she lifted her head. Looking down, she was lost for words as she realized what she did. The food was good for two people, and yet she gobbled them all with gusto!
She was so embarrassed
to Ken. Then without pity, she pinched his ears with both hands. Her livid emotion emanating from her eyes almost tore him up.
"You bastard! You made me lose my most precious thing, and now you even deny it! I can't live. You'll pay for it!"
Sensing her unexpected action, Ken stretched out his hands to hold her legs instinctively to prevent her from falling.
"Get your hands off me!"
Ken's eyes had teared up when he felt that his ears were almost pulled down by Bonnie. At this moment, he retracted his thoughts about her. This girl was not lovely at all. She was extremely irritating.
In the ward, both Kerr and Nicole heard the commotion outside.
Nicole frowned as she intently listened to the voice. It sounded like that of Bonnie's. So out of her curiosity, she looked at Kerr questioningly.
"What's wrong?"
Kerr opened the door to the ward. Immediately, there was a loud crash reverberated within the room. Ken was leaning against the door and fell on the ground without warning.
Still sitting on his laps, Bonnie lunged and grabbed him by the neck long before he could react, totally ignoring the stunned people in the room amidst the chaos.
"Bonnie?"
Nicole asked incredulously at the person who was steadily beating Ken in front of her. It was her sister, Bonnie. With a curious expression, she could only stare at her.
Bonnie paused when Nicole's voice registered on her. Sweeping her eyes to the voice's direction, she caught herself gazing at Nicole's surprised face too. With a flash of panic in her eyes, she loosened her grip on Ken subconsciously.
