My Disabled CEO Stood up And Kissed Me novel Chapter 204

Chapter 204 Don't Move

When they had been in the conference room, Kendrick had not let her warm his hands with her belly, fearing she would catch a cold.

But the temperature in the bedroom was just right.

He put his hands on her waist, pinched her soft love handles, and rested his chin on her shoulder, watching her typing.

She had an orange fragrance on her body, so he couldn't help sniffing at her neck.

Natalie was busy at work, so she ignored his disturbing hands.

But he gradually moved his hands up. It was OK to keep his hands warm. But he was "sexually harassing" her now.

So, she held his restless hands, patted them, and threatened, "If you continue this, I won't let you use my belly to keep your hands warm any longer."

Kendrick seriously said, "But it feels warmer up there."

Natalie was speechless. She put away the laptop, leaned back in his arms, folded his hands on her belly, and sighed, "Ramsey Biomedicine is rotten to the core. Mr. Long is the head of the R&D department. However, all his research articles are suspected of plagiarism. He is incompetent, so he can never develop market-competitive drugs. Can I replace him?"

He frowned, "Do you have any suitable candidates?"

"Yes. I know a Hamgradish professor of genetic biology. The R&D department tried to poach her, but she did not reply. I sent her an email today. I want her to replace Mr. Long."

If she agreed, it would be easier to develop GM-1.

The data showed the professor's name was Brenna Quennell. She was a top professional in the genetic biology field.

Kendrick glanced at Brenna's information. The photo had a low pixel so that he couldn't see her face. But according to her resume, she was indeed excellent.

Ramsey Biomedicine had tried to poach her, but she was aloof. Even though they had offered a sky-high annual salary over twenty times her current income at the school, they had not swayed her. And she had never replied.

After lying in Kendrick's arms for a while, Natalie suddenly thought of something, patted him, and said, "You're injured on your waist. Don't lean on the headboard like this. Let's sleep!"

She carefully helped him lie down, looked at her watch, and said, "Christmas will come in half a month. Then, it will be New Year's Day. The new year will begin soon."

How time flew! She had spent five months with him before she knew it.

Kendrick's smile froze when he heard her mention New Year's Day.

Natalie suddenly remembered his parents had passed away on New Year's Eve. So, she panicked and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry."

He smiled, "It does not matter. New Year's Day is indeed the beginning of a new year."

Many things should be sealed in the past. What they were facing was a brand-new life.

He asked, "How do you plan to celebrate New Year's Eve this year? Do you want to hang out with me?"

"But your legs might be inconvenient."

"It does not matter. How about we go to the amusement park?"

Natalie instantly widened her eyes. The amusement park had always been a painful and unmentionable existence for him. She had never expected him to take the initiative to mention it.

Did he want to untie the knot in his heart?

Kendrick had been sad on every New Year's Eve since that year. He used to lock himself in his room and faced the pain of his disablement and the death of his loved ones alone.

"Don't you want to go?"

Natalie bit her lower lip and said, "But you..."

He said, "It's time to move on."

Life could not last forever, but love could.
