Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

After discussing the upcoming plan with Shane, Rick was the first to leave. He was not so sure why Kendall wanted to see him. If it was something important...

Rick left as soon as they finished discussing. He was in such a hurry that Avery looked at his back and joked, "This guy said that he wanted to marry me. Well, I'm all alone now." "How wonderful is that?" Charlotte couldn't help but think of the first tshe met Kendall. She sighed and said, "How nice would it be if our relationship can remain the sas when we first met. Kendall is a good fit for superficial friendship." "You're too tolerant of her." Avery didn't think that things would be that simple.

"I'm not too tolerant of her. I'm more tolerant of myself." Avery shrugged.

Charlotte could say whatever she wanted anyway.

Rick returned home. The whole villa was dark without lights. He walked to the bedroom and pushed open the door. It was dark inside too. Thinking that Kendall might have fallen asleep, he did not turn on the lights and planned to walk to his desk to turn on the lamp. But after a few steps, he felt something soft on the tip of his toe. He frowned and squatted down. When he was about to reach out to touch it, he heard a series of shaky breaths.

"Kendall?" Rick called, but no one responded. He immediately turned around and switched on the lights.

On the floor, Kendall was curled into a ball. The corner of her forehead and her arms were all wounded. Her clothes were in tatters, and there was an obvious cut on her abdomen. Rick's breath hitched in his throat. He took her into his arms and shouted, "Kendall! Kendall!" She had already lost consciousness and did not respond. Rick immediately called the ambulance. Fortunately, there was no traffic at this hour, so the ambulance arrived shortly.

Kendall was carried onto the stretcher. After stof emergency operation, she was finally safe. Rick was dead tired when he sat in the hospital. He didn't know how to face Kendall, and he didn't know how to face Anne either. He was afraid that Anne was involved in this.

After more than ten minutes, Kendall slowly regained consciousness. The pain in her body made her tremble with fear.

"Kendall?" When she heard the familiar voice, her tears streamed down at once. But she stubbornly turned her head away and did not look at him.

Rick didn't dare to touch her. He could only extend his hand and wave it in front of her. "Are you awake?" "No." "Dummy, tellwhat happened. Who did this to you?" "I fell on my own," she answered in a muffled voice.

"How long are you going to cover up for Anne?" Kendall instantly felt wronged. She turned around and stared at him with red eyes. "I want to go home..." "Let's move to another place to live, okay?" Rick stroked her forehead gently, his fingers touching her bangs. "I'll rent a house, just for you and me." "Really?" Her eyes suddenly lit up.

Rick nodded. Gently, he touched the wound on her cheek with his fingers and asked, "Why didn't you dodge?" "Because I'm stupid." "There were more than one person, right?" Kendall felt that her lies were useless. She lowered her head and whispered, "Anne and her friends cto our house, but I didn't know. They sawwhen I went downstairs to get sjuice, so Anne calledover. When her friend heard that I was Caleb's sister, she... Anne actually stopped her, but her friend was too crazy." "What's her surname?" "Abril Medina. I think so." Kendall tried to recall. "I didn't think too much. I thought maybe it was just because of my brother's love affair. Then I wanted to hide upstairs. But, she called a lot of people to cover. Actually, Anne and I called you, but you didn't pick it up. So Anne ran out to look for you after that." "Why didn't you tellwhen you called me?" Kendall smiled awkwardly. "I thought that you had something important to do, so I dismissed the thought. I originally wanted to call Anne and tell her that I felt a little uncomfortable, but I had no strength." The doctor did say that her injury didn't look serious, and there was no need for her to cto the hospital in the first place. But the unfortunate thing was that her internal organs were a little injured, so the signs didn't appear at once. She didn't comment on this point. Maybe it really had nothing to do with Anne.

Rick's knitted brows relaxed slightly when he heard that Anne had nothing to do with it. "Are you sure Anne didn't hurt you?" "I'm sure. Anne isn't that evil," Kendall explained.

Rick nodded, and he took out his phone to contact Anne. When Anne heard that he was in the hospital, she immediately asked in an anxious tone, "How is Kendall?" "You still have the guts to ask me?" "Rick, I didn't know that Abril is a psycho. I owe an apology to you and Kendall for this. You can punishhowever you want, but first, you'd better tellwhere you went. Braden and I have searched all the places we could think of. We're in the waiting room at the airport now." There was indeed the sound of planes taking off coming from the other side of the phone.

Rick massaged the space between his eyebrows and said, "You'll know tomorrow when you watch the news. Now you..." "I'll cover right now," Anne interrupted him. "I'll be right there." Toot, toot, toot- Anne immediately hung up the phone. Rick didn't say anything more. He sent the address to her through text. After a while, Anne arrived at the hospital. Kendall fell asleep again. She was lying on the hospital bed, appearing thin and pathetic. Anne felt bad for her. No matter how much she hated Kendall, she never wished death upon her. And she looked so small and pitiful, even a little cute.

Anne dragged Rick to the hospital's corridor and said, "Braden has sent someone to keep an eye on Abril. Do you want to punish her first orfirst?" "You're my sister." Rick shook his head helplessly. "Kendall said that you didn't hit her and even helped her to find me. It doesn't make sense if I blyou." "Rick, it's my fault. But I can also see how awful the people from the Stevens Family are to outsiders. Do you want to..." "Then I'll make them shut up." This was the first tAnne had seen a murderous look in Rick's eyes.

His lower eyelids were slightly tightened upwards, and there seemed to be frosty winds and snow from the mountains hidden in his pupils.

Anne had a hunch that the Medina Family might end up in bad shape, but was it worth it because of Kendall? The Medina family wasn't that easy to deal with...

Anne tentatively said, "Rick, do you want to think about it again?" "Of course I won't do it on my own." "Then..." "I would definitely pass this favor to Shane and Charlotte." Would Charlotte defend Kendall against injustice?

Anne quirked the corners of her mouth and said, "Rick why would you think of letting your exgirlfriend help E n your current girlfriend?" "It's not about girlfriends, it's about..."

"Shane told me." Braden suddenly opened his mouth to speak. "You pretended to fall out with Avery, land out then he hid the trading contract between Charlotte and Avery. So generally speaking, Shane and Charlotte are standing by your side to resist Avery." Rick nodded. "There's nothing more suitable forto becallies with the Stevens Family than defending Kendall." "The most terrifying thing is to turn your enemy into an ally." Braden sighed. "This trick of yours is really..." "As long as it works." Indeed.

Anne did not leave. She followed Rick into the ward. At this time, Kendall had already woken up, and she was staring at the ceiling.

"Kendall." Anne cto her bedside. Looking at the person on the bed, she felt very sorry.

"Anne." Kendall turned around and smiled at her. "Thank you for today." "You didn't even suspectand thankedfirst?"

"There is nothing to suspect. Besides, even if you really asked someone to hit me, I can only accept it. Because I still like Rick, even though I don't deserve him. I still don't deserve him even if you hit me." Kendall said as she made a face. Kendall was different from Charlotte.

Charlotte would never say something like that.

Anne had been friends with Charlotte for a long time. So she naturally couldn't stand someone like Kendall. But she also understood that she had to tolerate this person who her brother liked.
