Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte)

Chapter 142

Christopher wanted to say something. He was not comforting her, but really wanted to give her a necklace that was worthy of her. However, when he saw her body stiffen, his eyes suddenly lit up.

He could not help but look in the direction of her gaze.

Shane got out of the car. He wore only a white T-shirt and looked coolly handsome and charismatic. Even without doing anything, it was enough to attract everyone's attention.

Tiffany, who had been passing on her good wishes to Braden, immediately went to his side and held Shane's arm like a spoiled child. She was practically plastered on him.

Shane took a step back and distanced himself from her.

"Um, Shane, why don't you introduce us. This is..."

"I've already made the introductions." Shane interrupted coldly.

"We only know that her name is Tiffany." Braden was embarrassed. He kept making motions at Shane in the direction of Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Charlotte.

Shane pretended that he didn't see it, and the atmosphere around him suddenly became colder. "That's enough."

As soon as he finished speaking, he walked into the house with a gloomy expression.

Braden blinked, undid his tie and threw it on the ground. "What the hell is up with this guy today? He looks like someone pissed in his coffee."

No one responded to him.

It was only then that Braden realized that Charlotte didn't look so good. Anne and Christopher surrounded her, looking as if they were comforting her.

As for Tiffany, she seemed to be a simple and harmless little lady.

Braden felt very down. Could it have been that this engagement party had been held at the wrong time?

In the living room, everyone sat down, but no one spoke.

Charlotte should have sat with Shane, but she couldn't butt in. Fortunately, Christopher placed her with him and Zoe so as to avoid any embarrassment.

When he saw that the atmosphere had become even tenser, Braden quickly said, "Why don't we go horse-riding? My family has a stable."

"That's fine." Christopher agreed.

Braden immediately looked at Shane and said, "Three against two, it's no use even if you refuse."

Shane glanced at Christopher and said, "Do you know how to ride?"

Christopher smiled. "I don't just know how to ride."

What the hell?

Why are they arguing with each other again?

Braden really wanted to cry. He quickly stood up and arranged for the few people to go to the stables.

When they arrived at the place, Charlotte finally spoke up and said that she didn't know how to ride. In order not to spoil everyone's mood, she decided to sit and watch.

When she saw this, Tiffany also said that she didn't feel well and left behind Charlotte.

"Look at what you did." Braden rode to Shane and said, "What are you doing? Who is this Tiffany person?"

"She's Heidi Allen's younger sister." It was Christopher who spoke.

Braden was so shocked that his mouth became an 0. "The one who died when Shane was 15?"

Christopher nodded.

Shane said angrily, "Stop talking nonsense."

"You can lose your temper as you like." Christopher just smiled and said lightly. "I only care about whether someone I care about will be hurt or not."

Even if he was slow- witted, Braden was aware of where the problem lay.

It was so ridiculous. Was Christopher going to steal Shane's woman?

Shane sneered, "Do you think you are qualified?"

"We've known each other for so long. I thought you weren't such a bad person, but I didn't think you would be a playboy. It's disgusting." Christopher mounted his horse and rode away. "Giddyup!"

Braden still wanted to persuade Shane, but Shane also picked up his reins, leaving only his back to Braden.

"What the hell is going on here?" Braden thought.

Braden was feeling gloomy when Anne came riding over. "What's wrong with the two of them?"

"Christopher seems to care a lot about Ms. Emerson. Did you know about this?"

"Him? I don't think that's possible. There aren't any sparks when he's standing with Lottie," Anne said suspiciously.

There were no sparks because, previously, Charlotte and Shane were fine. Now, with the addition of Tiffany, that guy Christopher was exposed.

Braden's expression was aggrieved. "My dear wife, it's so difficult for me being in the middle."

"Don't worry." In comparison, Anne was very calm. "There are less than three hours left. The results will come out soon."

"What results?"

"Sheryl and Shane's DNAtest."

Braden was stunned. Then his eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "My wife is brilliant. You're so smart!"

Anne smiled. "Okay, stop flattering me. Let's go horse-riding."

"Alright."

Not far away, at the seating area.

As Charlotte sat at the highest point, she was able to watch everyone prance around.

At first, she was focused on Anne, but then her gaze had somehow fallen on Shane.

He was too outstanding. No matter where he was, he was always the most dazzling.

"Shane and I have known each other for more than ten years. Did you know that?"

Tiffany, now dressed in casual clothes, had approached Charlotte at some point.

Charlotte didn't look at her. She still looked at the people riding. "I don't know, I've never heard of it."

"I've been in love with him ever since I was ten. He will definitely marry me in the future." Tiffany sat beside Charlotte. "He's very outstanding, isn't he?"

Ten years old.

It turned out that Charlotte was the 'other woman' in this relationship.

Tiffany wasn't the homewrecker. She had always been by Shane's side.

Tiffany continued when she didn't get a response, "I heard from the people around him that he is very close to your daughter."

"Maybe."

"As a mother, don't you know about this?" Tiffany did not believe it.

Charlotte stood up. "You can stay here and watch. I'm going to go back to rest."

Tiffany looked at her retreating back and smiled proudly.

After leaving the seating area, Charlotte went to the bathroom to wash her face.

She was very affected by Tiffany's words, but she did not fully believe them. Maybe she should find time to confirm it with Shane.

If it was as Tiffany said, she would let go.

She would end this contract earlier than expected...

Charlotte looked at herself in the mirror with a bitter smile. Since when did she care so much about him?

She was sad.

She was really sad.

Charlotte wanted to leave Braden's home before the others, but she didn't have a car, so she had to look for Christopher.

When Anne heard that she was leaving, she immediately stopped her. "I'm taking you to see my bridal room."

In a state of confusion, Anne pulled Charlotte away.

Braden went to Christopher's side and lowered his voice mysteriously. "I say, you aren't really interested in Charlotte, are you?"

"Interested?"

"Weren't you saying to Shane just now..."

"You've misunderstood me. I just don't like playboys."

"It wasn't because it was Charlotte that you helped her?"

"Of course."

Braden breathed a sigh of relief.

In Zoe's case, who had been beside them, her gaze darkened.

She had been paying attention to Christopher the entire time. No one knew him better than she did. According to his character, he would never have a disagreement with Shane because of someone, unless he really cared about that person.

Did Christopher like Lottie?

However, Charlotte was Mr. Fuller's...

Zoe's heart wrenched.

Was her heart aching for Christopher or Charlotte, or herself?

On the other end.

Anne brought Lottie to her room and handed her a document surreptitiously.

Charlotte looked at the leather bag in her hand suspiciously and asked, "What's this?" "Go home and look at it carefully." Anne was very serious. "Believe me, you must finish reading it before making a decision."

"What?" Charlotte thought.

Charlotte was confused, but she also knew that Anne was not the kind of person who would make meaningless jokes, so she could only keep the documents.

Anne checked downstairs to make sure that Shane had already left before saying, "I'll take you home."

"Anne, just now, you were trying to prevent me and..."

"I just want to hog you for a bit," Anne said with a straight face.

Charlotte couldn't help but laugh. "Okay, whatever you like. My best friend is the best in the world."

Anne's driving skills were good. Plus, it was not the peak traffic hour, so they soon arrived at Charlotte's home.

Shane's car wasn't there, so he must have sent Tiffany home. As Charlotte thought about it, her mood became more gloomy.

"Go upstairs." Anne looked at her with a smile.

"Enjoy your wedding night."

Anne snorted and drove the car away.

Charlotte went upstairs to open the door and sat down on the sofa. She took out the document only to see the words printed in bold fonts-

It was a paternity test.
