Contract Marriage With The Disabled CEO By Woody Rain Chapter 41
Chapter 41 The Reason He Pretended to Be Disabled
Betty froze and shook her head.
Kerwin had said she might be better off not knowing some issues, so she didn’t go further to
question him.
“Ten years ago, Kerwin was in a car ident.” Jason was blunt. “Everyone thought Kerwin’s leg was
crippled in that ident, but he was just injured. His injuries were healed after he went to France.”
Betty recalled how she also seemed to have seen Kerwin’s car ident on the news.
At the time, Kerwin was barely 20 years old and had just started college. When he was kidnapped, the
kidnapper offered an enormous ransom of 100 million dors. The news was a local sensation.
It was said that the kidnapper tried to take Kerwin away as a hostage after receiving the ransom, but he
was in a car ident on the road. The kidnapper was killed instantly, while Kerwin was seriously
injured.

However, many details were not made public at the time, so people did not know that Kerwin was
injured in both legs and only knew that he had been weak and sick since he went to America for
treatment.
“I’ve probably heard something about it,” Betty said. “So he continued to pretend to be disabled after he
was treated in America?”
“But.” Jason tilted his head. “Mrs. Martin, guess why?”
Betty found him to be funny.
Jason and Kerwin hadpletely different personalities. A person like Jason may be very popr
with girls.
“You want me to guess?” Betty pretended to think seriously. “Is he doing it to get the Martin family to let
down their guards against him?”
Betty thought about why Kerwin was pretending to be disabled before, so she had her guess in her
mind long ago.
As a journalist, although she did not know much about the inner affairs of powerful families, she could
probably guess that the reason that Kerwin had tried so hard to hide the truth had something to do with
his family.
She had never met Kerwin’s elder brother, Jeffrey’s father, Henry, who was rumored to be a very
ambitious and ruthless man. Since Bruce was old, Henry was mainly responsible for managing the
Martin family business.
Kerwin cut ties with the Martin family and started his own business from scratch, so he could avoid
conflict with Henry.
Could it be that Kerwin is pretending to be a cripple because of his elder brother?
Jason gave Betty an approving look after hearing her spection. “Well done. You’re pretty smart.”
Betty chuckled, embarrassed. “I’ve seen a lot of family dramas in TV series about rich families.”
Jason burst intoughter. “Because the Martin family owns arge family business, the rtionship
between the family members is asplicated as what you have seen in those TV series. Although
Kerwin seems to be arrogant, he’s had a hard time over the years.”
Betty was stunned but nodded.
Kerwin was healthy but in a wheelchair for the past ten years. And he had to defend himself from his
family, so he must be very tired.
“So,” Jason spoke again, suddenly withdrawing his smile and looking serious. “Mrs. Martin, you must
make him happy.”
Betty didn’t expect Jason to say something like this and then froze.
av SO
However, what kind of happiness could she bring to him?
Before Betty could answer his question, she suddenly heard a steady footstep and a cold voice. “What
are you talking about?”
Betty turned her head and saw that it was Kerwin who had returned.
Kerwin wasnky. He was wearing a light blue shirt to show his perfect body shape.
Was WE
Betty’s eyes darkened.
How does it feel to be confined to a wheelchair for a man as brilliant as him?
“I was telling your wife that I fell in love with her at first sight. And I’m about to steal her.” The moment
Jason saw Kerwin, he put on a naughty smile. “Kerwin, you know how charming I am. A lot of women
admire me, so you’d better watch out.”
“Stop making such aparison!” Kerwin said as he walked over to the table. Then he unscrewed the
red wine in his hand with a corkscrew. “You are way out of her league.”
“Gee, you’re so confident,” Jason grunted.
During the dinner with Jake, Betty found him to be hrious. And Jake didn’t wipe his mouth and got up
until he finished thest dessert.
“Mrs. Martin, I have a dateter. I’ll leave you two alone. And I’ll see you next time.”
Betty and Kerwin sent Jason away. They watched Jason drive away his red sports car and then went
back to the dining room.
Kerwin was taking the tes back to the kitchen.
“I got it,” Betty said immediately and tried to take over the tes, but he stopped her.
“I could still wash some dishes,” Kerwin whispered.
Betty had no choice but to wash the dishes with him.
After putting the dishes in the dishwasher, Kerwin said, “What did Jason say to you?”
Betty froze for a moment and was going to tell him the truth. “He told me the reason why you
pretended to be a cripple.”
“Alright.” Kerwin wasn’t surprised.
Jason and Kerwin had been friends for years, so Kerwin could guess what Jason had told her.
“Do you me me?” Kerwin raised his eyes to stare at Betty.
Betty froze and didn’t respond. “me you for what?”
“I should have told you earlier.” Kerwin put thest te into the sink.
Betty chuckled. “It makes no difference. Jason wouldn’t have dared tell me without your permission,
would he?”
Kerwin couldn’t help but nce at Betty.
Although Betty was not talkative, she figured it all in her heart.
Kerwin led Betty out of the kitchen. “Jason is more eloquent than I am.”
It meant that Jason might be able to tell the story more clearly than he did.
“As for the details…” Kerwin hesitated and added, “I still can’t tell you. And it will put you in danger. I
hope you’ll understand.”
Betty nodded. “I know you’re trying to protect me.”
Betty’s tender words reassured Kerwin. And he could not help but squeeze her hands tighter.
Then, Betty blushed. When she was about to say something, she heard her cell phone ringing in the
living room.
“Well, I have to take a call.” She lowered her head, pulled her hands back, and walked to the living
room.
Betty picked up the phone on the coffee table and looked at the caller ID, which made her frown.
She said, deadpan, “Emily, why are you calling me?”
