Chapter 682: Spokesperson
After a few hours, Harry suddenly woke up when he heard a loud snore.
'What the heck?' he grunted as he sat on his bed. He creased his forehead as he looked at Kimmy who was in a deep sleep, snoring loudly!
He shook his head seeing that she did not even have a blanket when it was too cold inside his room. He stood up and pulled his IV drip with him while carrying a blanket to put it on Kimmy, but the latter just tossed it
Harry picked it up and put it back on her.
"I thought you were not allowed to sleep?" he murmured, a bit amused at how funny the woman looked while she was sleeping. She looked too young to be a bodyguard. He let out a sigh and then went back to his bed.
Everyone thought that he might try and take his life but they were wrong because he was not ready to die just like that. He was alive because he knew he had to correct all the wrongdoings his mother and he had caused to everyone.? He was willing to pay for everything.
He could not help but cry once more. He felt so sad for his mother who died just like that. He felt responsible for not overseeing how his mother's greed had turned her into a monster.
"I'm sorry mom… I really am," he whispered as he curled on his bed, sobbing silently. He felt so alone now.
"Ahhh! I said stop smiling!" he heard a shout from Kimmy which made him sit on his bed.
Harry shook his head. This woman not only snores but also talks while sleeping. He chuckled softly, hearing her snore once more.
The next morning, Kimmy almost jumped off the couch, realizing she had slept.
"Good morning," Harry greeted her.
Her eyes widened seeing his blanket on the couch.
"Good morning," she greeted.
"Come and eat breakfast with me. One of Kenzie's bodyguards left the breakfast on the table for us," Harry said, so she immediately grabbed the paperbag to arrange his breakfast.
She bit her lip after reading the message on her mobile phone…
[You owe me a meal or else I will tell the Boss that you sleep the whole night. ????]
She scoffed! Out of all the bodyguards employed, why did it have to be that jerk who kept pestering her to go out to bring them food!
"You alright?" Harry asked, noticing the frown on Kimmy's face.
"Yes sir," Kimmy answered with a smile.
After an hour, the door opened and Kenzie entered with a wide smile.
"How are you doing? Is Kimmy taking good care of you?" she asked as she sat on the chair next to Harry.
"I'm sorry," Harry whispered. He was ashamed to even look Kenzie in the eyes.
"Hmm, I know so let's forget about it Harry. I already talked to my husband Daryl and he agreed not to file a case against you. I know that this is what father wanted as well. So forget everything and focus on getting better."
Harry stared at Kenzie in disbelief so Kimmy interrupted, "Congratulations sir! My Boss is really the best, so you must not waste this opportunity and make sure to be good from now on!"
Kenzie elbowed Kimmy, who immediately shut her mouth.
"You don't need to talk to the police. Daryl is handling them right now Harry. I really hope you and Daryl will no longer have any misunderstandings and be like brothers" Kenzie voiced out. Harry was silent for a moment.
"I am really sorry and I'm grateful that you and Daryl are this kind to me Kenzie, but I am still guilty of my crimes so I must be punished…" Harry insisted. He did not know how to face everyone so he felt that it was better for him to just stay in prison where he belonged.
"How about a different kind of punishment Harry? Instead of sending you to jail, I will decide your punishment, okay?" Kenzie said with a wink.
"What do you mean?" Harry questioned, feeling confused.
"It's really simple. Just stay with father. Be a good son to him and a good brother to Daryl. You also know that they need you, especially when it comes to handling the company. It might be a struggle for you to face them so it can be considered as a punishment for you. What do you think?" Kenzie suggested, hoping things would turn out well for everyone.
"Wow, that's really a one-of-a-kind punishment, Harry! You should grab it quickly before you lose the opportunity!" Kimmy cheered, making Kenzie's eyebrow arch in surprise.
"Harry?! Why are you addressing him so casually?" Kenzie scolded.
Kimmy scratched her head and whispered, "He told me to call him by his name, Boss."
Then Kimmy looked at Harry and asked with a smile, "Right Harry?"
Kenzie could not believe what she was seeing.
'What the heck is happening?' she mused while staring at the twinkling eyes of Kimmy as she smiled at Harry, who was obviously feeling uncomfortable.
Harry just maintained an awkward smile.
"I'm sure you want to accept the punishment my Boss gave you but you are just too shy to do so," Kimmy bluntly added.
Then she looked at Kenzie and said, "Boss, Harry agrees to your punishment so don't worry."
"Kimmy! Are you his spokesperson or what?" Kenzie scolded but Kimmy only gave her a wink and a smile.
Kenzie shook her head and directly asked him, "Is Kimmy right? Do you agree with what I said, Harry?"
Harry timidly nodded. He was honestly grateful to Kimmy that she was there and butting in on his behalf. Actually, it was not even a punishment to call. For him, what Kenzie said was like giving him a chance to repent for his mistakes and he was more than grateful to do it.? He knew that he did not deserve such a chance but he wouldn't let go of it now that he had the opportunity.
"Alright, thank you, Harry. I'm glad that you agreed. Father will be very happy when he finds out about it." Kenzie said.
Daryl entered the room after a while.
"Everything is settled," Daryl said.
"I'm sorry for the trouble I've caused you," Harry said.
Daryl let out a sigh and said, "It's nothing, Harry. I only hope that you take this second chance and become a better person."
Daryl was not the type to hold grudges. Harry's mother was the one who killed his mother so he would not hold the man accountable for it. He was grateful enough that Kenzie was back in his arms safe and sound. So just like his wife had said, he would learn to forgive and forget especially when the other person was willing to repent.
