Contract Marriage With The Disabled CEO

Chapter 97 Betty, I’m Sorry. 

“It is likely to happen.” The man at the desk answered respectfully.

“No. We can’t let it happen.” Henry’s face was distorted with rage. He thought for a while, and said, “Well, I’ll figure out a way to hold Kerwin back tomorrow, and you try to think of a way to deal with the woman

Betty.”

The man frowned. “Mr. Martin, why don’t you find a way to kill Kerwin?”

“I did think about that,” Henry sneered. “But you know how much the old man cares about him. Ten years ago, he nearly turned Chicago inside out when that kidnapping case happened. So we’d better not do any harm to Kerwin. But with Betty, things will be different. She’s just an outsider. Even if anybody finds out what we do, the old man won’t do anything to us.”

“Got it.”

“Also,” something suddenly occurred to Henry, and he looked gloomy. “Don’t let Jeffrey know about this.”

Hearing this, the man twinkled his eyes and said, “No problem.”

“You can go now.”

“Yes, sir.”

She typed “I know” and sent the message before she continued her work.

The deadline for the press was around the corner, so people in the whole office were

constantly on the run. They worked overtime for quite some time to finish their work.

Betty was among the group who left the office the latest. It was already past mid-night.

Unfortunately, it seemed that there was a concert being held in the stadium next to the magazine office. So the traffic jam made it worse for her. It was hard to get a cab.

Everyone decided to share a taxi home. But when asked where she lived, Betty remained

silent.

She didn’t want to tell everyone that she lived in the most luxurious villa in the city.

She smiled awkwardly and told the others that her husband was already on his way to pick her up and asked them to leave first.

Hearing this, her colleagues shouted enviously, “that’s so nice!” By and by, they got in the cab and went home. Soon, Betty
