Matthew’s handsome face morphed into a terrifying look as his eyes caught sight of the pale looking woman standing by the bedside obviously in shock.Then his eyes switched to the old man lying on the hospital bed. “If you are done punishing my wife. Arrange someone to look after you.” He walked towards Kirsten, then held her hand. “You’re tired of looking after him the entire day.” “Who informed you?” Kirsten asked. “Still don't know, wife?” Matthew gently pinched her cheek. “Ninjas!” Kirsten called the men stealthy guarding them, Ninjas. “Let’s go,” Matthew pulled her gently but she remained in her place. “You still wanted to look after him?” Matthew asked, raising a brow. “No, I wouldn’t dare stay another second. I’m afraid my presence would only cause grandpa’s health to deteriorate. But make sure that someone will take care of him.”“Alright,” Matthew nodded and went outside to make a call. A cleaner came in a minute after the couple went out. Caring for a cranky old man

Kirsten’s lips twitched. She wanted to ask what his son and daughter - in law were doing, but held her peace. “You're unwilling, aren't you?” Norman said, sneering. Kirsten smiled and said, “I will handle the discharge procedure, grandpa.” Norman was sleeping when Don arrived in the hospital. “Thank you, madam. No one could stand the temper of the old sir except you.” Don said quietly. Kirsten responded with a giggle. “The doctor gave a go signal that it’s alright to take him home. Anyway, I have to go.” In the corridor, Kirsten was surprised to meet James. Her heart constricted looking at the man who shed a few pounds, looking thinner. But the man still looked handsome and could turn heads. “James?” Looking into her best friend’s eyes, Kirsten could see grief surrounding him. “What happened?” She held his hand and took him to the nearby bench. “Dad, dad… he’s dead.” Though he shed no tears, his sorrow bled in his voice. Wordlessly, Kirsten consoled James, holding

“Shut up!” James hollered. “You know nothing!” James darted his gaze to his bodyguard and barked. “Take her home.” At once two bodyguards dragged Jenny out of the funeral home. “Pathetic, you are pathetic, James! Loving a hooker like her," Jenny yelled while pointing her finger at Kirsten. “Stop right there!” Matthew had enough. He wouldn’t let Kirsten humiliated. “Apologize to my wife.” Matthew ordered. Jenny was stunned at the revelation but her stubbornness and pride made her callous. She would never apologize to her. “Over my dead body! I will never apologize to a whore. She's a nobody, a woman who sells her body." “Then, see you in court,” Matthew's countenance gave a hint of the brewing tempest. “What’s happening here?” Graciella Lincoln heard Matthew as she stepped into the hall. “Mr Roosevelt!” Graciella smiled at him. In their circle everyone knew who Matthew Roosevelt was and it’s impossible for her not to recognize him. But when her eyes settled on the woman in

As Kirsten and Matthew made their way further into the hall, Graciella, while talking to one of Lincoln's family friends, caught sight of them. "Excuse me for a while, I'll come back in a bit," she said and strode off to Matthew and Kirsten after the person nodded. Though feeling embittered, Graciella wore a smile on her face. "Mr Roosevelt… " Graciella paused for a moment and continued despite the niggling feeling she had. "Mrs Roosevelt." As though they had talked about it, in synchrony, Matthew nodded their head and said, "Mrs Lincoln." The exchange between them was watched by the people inside the hall. Following Graciella's lead, Matthew and Kirsten took the front seat and then left them, seemingly restless. The people who had witnessed the whole fiasco the night before began to rethink if Jenny's statement was true. "Looking for him?" Matthew's jealous voice rang in her ears when her eyes scanned the place looking for James. Like a child caught stealing a candy,

The car was dark but Matthew could sense the apprehension coming from Kirsten. He leaned and said in a low voice. “If you aren’t ready to conceive yet, I won’t force you.” Kirsten was still young and he was not in a hurry to have a child. They have to strengthen their bond before welcoming a child together. Significantly, Kirsten's highly strung body relaxed in his arms. “Thank you, Matthew.” When they came back home after a two week holiday in Norway, Kirsten was occupied with many cases while Matthew was expanding overseas and was always on business trips. She and Matthew barely spent time together except during the nights when sleeping together. This went on for nearly two months. One evening after a tiring work, as Kirsten was dragging her exhausted body into the penthouse, Matthew was rushing towards her. Kirsten was taken aback at the urgency in his face. “Something’s wrong?” She grabbed Matthew’s wrist to stop him. “I have to go for a business trip,” Matthew kissed
Mr. Roosevelt's Pampered Pawn Wife Chapter 46 - Never Believe
After being discharged from the hospital, Kirsten and Matthew flew back home. The time she was confined in the hospital, Kirsten was able to think about her relationship with Matthew. What a fool she was. To begin with, she and Matthew entered a year-long contract marriage. Why didn’t she thoroughly think about Matthew’s behavior towards Monalisa? He married her not to make Monalisa jealous. Lucille was right; she was just a chess piece in the hand of Matthew, protecting his beloved. It wasn’t surprising he was such a legendary tycoon, he was a prodigy at manipulating a situation to his advantage and this was a classic example. At the thought of being played, Kirsten wanted to get revenge. “Here for breakfast?” His voice was casual, light even but his eyes roamed over her small figure almost hungrily, taking in every single detail of her face and figure which is getting rounder because of her pregnancy. They had been living past each other for nearly one month, with Kirsten de

Kirsten sat up and was preparing to get her t - shirt that was thrown on the floor. But Matthew encircled her waist, hindering her.“Don’t go. We have to talk about it.” Matthew said with a begging tone and Kirsten agreed reluctantly.They sat on the edge of the bed, Matthew bent forward, picking her t - shirt and gave it to her. It was cold in the room and he couldn't let her go bare while they were seated as she might catch a cold.“The mastermind behind the abduction and assault was my enemy and I felt guilty that it was because of me, Vanessa went through a nightmare.” Matthew was guilty for Vanessa but at the same time thankful because his enemy didn’t go for Kirsten. He didn’t know what he’d do if it was

“Good morning, my love,” Kirsten heard Matthew’s voice when she opened her eyes in the morning. Mesmerized by the handsome man standing near the foot of the bed, she stared at him without blinking her eyes.Finding her reaction adorable, Matthew could not hold back his laughter which snapped back Kirsten into reality.“Are you not going to your office?” Kirsten asked when Matthew sat beside her and surrounded her with his pair of powerful arms.“You still have two days left of your leave of absence and I’m going to stay with you.” For the previous months they barely had time with each other. He realized that he had neglected her, just because she wasn’t complaining doesn’t mean that he could go on
