My Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 214

Henry returned the five hundred to the female driver of the BMW. If she hadn't rushed over to argue with the driver in the next lane, she wouldn't have had to give Kerry more than 200,000 for the repairs.

"Mr. Ye, Why are your clothes so wet?" Xuan looked at Kerry's wet clothes, puzzled.

The Kerry's shirt and pants were still wet, though they weren't dripping. Naturally, he couldn't tell the facts, so he made up an excuse. "I was just passing by the flower shop, so I went in to buy a bouquet for Yan. When I came out it happened to be raining, and I was far from where I parked,"

"Just let Henry go and order a bouquet of flowers. No need to bother you to buy it for Yan." Xuan joked.

"The flowers are for Yan, I'd rather buy them on my own." Kerry smiled.

At this time, the cars on the road began to move slowly. Kerry didn't want to stay any longer and was about to say goodbye to Xuan, but Xuan said first, "I was going to meet you in the morning to discuss the work. Since we ran into each other, I'll take your car to your office."

Kerry couldn’t let him get in the car, so he moved forward to block Xuan’s steps." "Why didn't you tell me you were going to talk to me about work earlier? Yesterday the mayor informed me that I was to attend an important meeting ceremony today at 9:30. So I'm not available right now.”

"I'll meet you at your office after the meeting, okay?"

"The city government is over there, why do you go in the opposite direction?” asked Yan.

Kerry laughed bitterly, "How am I supposed to meet city leaders in these clothes? I'm going to go to the office to change and pick up some files on the way. I guess I'm late for a meeting." said he. Then he also looked down at the watch on his wrist.

"I'll see you this afternoon then." said Xuan.

"Okay, see you later.” said Kerry. “I'll call you this afternoon.”

As he passed by Kerry's car, Xuan unconsciously looked in it. He always thought there was someone else in the car.

After Xuan walked toward his car, Kerry walked toward the back door of his car.

Venus was now crouched on the ground and whispered, "Is he gone?"

Kerry sat in, smiling, "He's gone. You can stand up now."

"Wait a few minutes." Venus hugged her knees, still crouched on the ground.

As Henry restarted the car, he saw through his rearview mirror that the female BMW driver was arguing with the guy again, and behind them came a barrage of honking voices urging them to hurry up.

Kerry watched as Xuan's car turned the corner, and then he said to Venus, "Okay, you can stand up now. He's already turned the corner."

Venus relaxed and then sat on the seat. She looked a little pained.

"Are your legs numb?" Kerry asked with concern.

Venus nodded.

Kerry put one of her legs up on his. The move startled Venus and she asked with a raised eyebrow, "What are you doing?"

"I'll help you rub your leg. Maybe you’ll feel better."

"Thank you," Venus said, “but can you rub it gently?”

"Actually, I rub it very gently. You’ll feel better soon."

Venus was slightly touched by the way he rubbed her legs. "You just immediately made up an excuse to lie to Xuan, and he believed it. You're good at lying." Venus teased.

Kerry lowered his eyebrows and gave her a quick glance, "Are you referring to the meeting at City Hall?"

Venus nodded.

"That’s true. I am supposed to go to a meeting at City Hall at nine thirty this morning." Kerry said casually.

"It's almost nine o'clock. You might be late." said Venus.

“Yesterday, I was going to let the vice president to attend the meeting on my behalf, but I promised I'd go with you to your parents' graves. I'm dropping by for this meeting."

When she felt her legs weren't numb anymore, she said, "My legs are much better."
