Chapter 69 Your Duty

Betty was stunned once again, Kerwin was right. Old Bruce was indeed eccentric and irrational. “Technically speaking, a family like ours would never accept a controversial woman regardless of whether it’s her fault for the scandal,” Old Bruce stated in a cold voice. Betty had thought about that. Her face blanching, she asked, “Why do you accept me then?” “Not me, Kerwin.” Old Bruce’s face turned sad. “It’s been ten years since Julia’s death. I thought that kid would not fall in love again or get married.” Betty froze. Julia? Who? A woman liked by Kerwin? Betty had many questions in her heart but not dare to ask the old man. “To my surprise, he married you.” old Bruce’s eagle’s eyes once again fell on Betty. “At first, I thought you were just a cover he used to put me off. However, from our last meeting and the banquet today, I can tell that he’s truly into you.” Kerwin is into me? When Betty heard that, her heart skipped a beat. She was not convinced. Although Kerwin was nice to her, he was too outstanding and distant. Betty couldn’t imagine that he had feelings for her. Not that blunt to refute Old Bruce’s view, she just listened. ”That’s why I accept you,” Old Bruce continued in a tired tone. “I’ll accommodate myself to his preferences.” Betty looked at the old man. At that moment, the latter was more of an ordinary senior Scanned with CamScanner Who wanted his grandson to be happy than The head of the all-mighty Martin family. “But,” Old Bruce’s tone became stern again. “You shouldn’t forget your duty.” Betty found it hard to follow Old Bruce’s train of thought. “What duty?” “‘To extend Kerwin’s bloodline, of course!” Old Bruce’s eyes rounded as he was disappointed with Betty’s fatuity. “You see, Henry’s child is a big boy now. Kerwin, however, hasn’t got one yet at such an age!” Betty choked on her saliva. So, Old Bruce went to great lengths with the sole aim of urging her to have a baby? Although Kerwin and Henry were siblings, the difference in their age was big, Henry was around 50 whereas Kerwin was not even 30. Then again, people from big families tended to marry early. Many of them were already the fathers of a bunch of kids at the age of 30. Betty was embarrassed to no end and lost for Chapter 69 Your Duty Scanned with CamScanner Wards, Old Bruce narrowed his eyes and ‘whispered, “Girl, I know everything. Although Kerwin and you are married, you haven’t consummated it yet!” Betty was flabbergasted! Did Old Bruce even know that? “Girl, tell me the truth.” Old Bruce’s eyes

glimmered, and he hesitated in his speech, Kerwin.. He hasn’t done that with you. Is it because of his physical condition?

Old Bruce’s question made the already shocked woman blush! What… What kind of grandfather was he? But this was privacy! As Betty remained silent, Old Bruce got anxious and pressed. “You know, Kerwin was crippled from that accident ten years ago, and I’ve been worried about his physical condition. I tried to take him to the doctor, but he refused. That’s why I’m so worried.” Betty’s heart softened with his anxious expression. It looked like Kerwin had kept his secret from Old Bruce, or else the old man wouldn’t have been so worried. Sympathizing with old Bruce’s feelings, she gritted her teeth to fight back her einbarrassment and said, “I think Kerwin is fine in that aspect. He’s all riglīt.” Old Bruce froze and asked, “low do you know that? “I… We live together although we haven’t consummated our marriage. Al that moment, Betty wished that the ground would open up and swallow her. There were times, vou know, I saw his reactions. It Betty’s cheeks were burning. It was the truth. She was sure of it. She saw Kerwin’s physical reactions every morning. Last tirne, they nearly did it. And the time she got out of the bathroom… She told from her experience. Scanned with CamScanner 5. Tufact, he was more than fine. He seemed good. Old Bruce froze before Betty’s words sank in. He was enthused. “Really? Ha-ha, that’s great! Wonderful!” He got up from the stool in excitement, lifted his cane, and waved it. “Since he’s fine, what are you waiting for?” Al a loss for an answer, Betty braced herself and said, “It hasn’t been long since we met.” “Nonsense!” Old Bruce spat. “I met my wise on a blind date and consummated our marriage on the wedding day! Aren’l young people supposed to be more open minded? Why are you even more bashful than us?” Betty blushed up to her ears. Old Bruce waved his cane and stated, “Betty, you know, I’m not pedantic and know that what happened back then was not your fault. I don’t blame you, but you should live up to my expectations! There’s no time like the present! Tonight, you should do it in the old house!!! Scanned with CamScanner 5. Bötty was stupefied. Tonight? Before she could recover from her shock, Old Bruce shouted at the top of his lungs, “Peter!!! Soon, the door opened, and in came the butler. “Peter, take Betty and Kerwin to their room.” Old Bruce grinned from ear to ear. “That room! The one I asked you to

prepare!!! What? A room was prepared for us? Before the appalled woman could ask about it, Peter had taken her out of the study. From the doorway, she could still hear Old Bruce’s hearty laughter. Betty was led to a room on the third floor. Before she got in, the considerate butler said, “Kerwin and you are the only ones on this floor. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
