Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte)

Chapter 232

"A mother should act more dignified." Shane retracted his hand.

"Sheryl would be delighted to have an energetic and responsible mother like me." Charlotte ignored his insult.

Shane shook his head, questioning her words, "Will a responsible mother hand her child over to an outsider for a month?"

"Aren't you her daddy?" She answered matter-of-factly.

In fact, it was also because he was biologically related to Sheryl that she only hesitated for a moment before she agreed.

"Now you know that I'm her father?" Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Why did that sound so weird?

Charlotte was about to refute, but Shane had already left with Cole.

At the same time, Braden hurriedly pulled Christopher in the direction of their car and whispered, "Christopher, put aside your personal opinion and let's talk about Shane. Do you think he loves Charlotte or not?" "Even though I stabbed him in the back, he still treats me as a friend. Do you think this is love or not?"

"He loves you like a brother, but you don't feel the same." Braden mocked.

This guy still had the guts to say it out loud.

If he hadn't come to fight for power all of a sudden, the three of them wouldn't have ended up being so cold towards each other.

Christopher looked into the distance. His long fingers lightly tugged at the hem of his shirt. "He treats me like a brother, but he never told me the reason why he suddenly created a subsidiary company. He's someone who would willingly tell me the number of shares that he has in his hands and would even discuss his strategies with me. But he didn't even tell me about Charlotte until the very last second. What do you think?"

"What can this prove?"

"It proves that in his heart, Charlotte is more important than me."

Christopher entered his car.

Actually, there was one more thing he didn't tell Braden about.

Even though Shane treated him like a brother, he had never given him any shares. However, when it came to Charlotte, he straightaway gave her the important shares.

He doubted that Charlotte would betray Shane and stand on his side.

This was no longer something that could be defined as love or not. To Shane, Charlotte is someone special.

Everyone had left.

Braden was standing in the cold wind, alone.

It took him ten minutes to finally understand Christopher's words. Shane had feelings for Charlotte.

"Why did he have to make it sound so complicated when he could easily say those five words?"

Braden went into his car as he cursed into the wind.

Busy.

That was the only word in Charlotte's dictionary.

Her company had taken over all the shipping services of the seven companies. While trying to expand her company, she had almost used up all her energy.

Fortunately, Zoe could help to pick up her child. Otherwise, she would've killed herself on the spot.

Charlotte was leaning back in her chair to rest as the noise traveled closer to her. She opened her eyes wearily and walked out of the office, only to find Peter pacing back and forth worriedly. He stopped when she saw her walking out and said politely, "Ms. Emerson."

"Mr. Brown." Charlotte nodded at him. "What's going on here?"

After what happened at the bidding, she created an intelligence department for Peter, which allows him to include the people of his choice only. But she lied to the public, telling them that this was another secretary group.

So when they didn't need them to carry out any research, they would just be a group of ordinary secretaries.

"Uhm...Kendall is here." Peter kept wiping his sweat off the corner of his forehead.

"Okay. I'm going there right now."

"But the doctor said you'd better rest for half an hour, your body..."

I'm fine. It's just glucopenia."

Watching as she walked away, Peter gritted his teeth and decided to call Shane.

A lot of people in the office had already seen Kendall in the office anyway. Ms. Emerson didn't know who secretly sent the message, but this person probably wouldn't expose themself this time too.

Charlotte walked into the guest room.

Kendall had already smashed everything that could be smashed.

Charlotte looked at her coldly and took out her phone. "You can either pay for all these now, or I'll call the police."

"Pay for these? Never mind the money, I'll give you all my shares as long as you can go back and take a single look at Rick." Kendall saw her walking in and handed over a piece of paper.

Charlotte didn't take it. "I don't need your shares. You can leave after you've paid for these."

"Are you really so cold-blooded?"

"What he needs right now is you, not me. If you get through this with him, he will definitely fall for you."

"Ha, ha, ha! Very funny! Do you really think that Rick doesn't love..."

"Kendall, I will never give up the project to Rick. At the same time, it's also impossible for me to make up with him. As long as he thinks that Shane is the barrier between us, we will never be able to break down this barrier. I don't want to waste my time trying to find a miracle."

"You!" Kendall was so angry that she stepped in front of her and raised her hand.

Charlotte grabbed her wrist with her backhand.

After the project had been settled, she listened to Shane's advice and went to learn some selfdefense skills.

Kendall was struggling.

"I can let you slap me now, but after that, don't come to my office again. I'll call the police next time." Charlotte let go of her wrist.

She never thought that Kendall was a bad person.

When they met for the first time, Kendall actually looked really cute.

She didn't want Kendall to become the second Elaine.

Moreover, there was no irreconcilable hatred between the two of them.

"I am Kendall Stevens. They don't dare to do anything to me!" Kendall scoffed and raised her hand again.

Charlotte helplessly shut her eyes.

Let's fight then.

Fight away all the feelings she had for her. Maybe that would be better.

"Oof!"

Charlotte didn't feel any pain. Instead, the person in front of her let out a cry.

She opened her eyes.

Kendall was on the ground. She was hugging her stomach with a painful expression.

Feeling baffled, Charlotte turned around and looked beside her.

Shane's expression was grave as he retracted his leg. His posture was strong and regal, like a general, giving off an intoxicating aura.

"You, you dare to hit me..." Kendall was in so much pain that she burst into tears and glared fiercely at the pair in front of her.

This shameless couple!

Shane turned to look at Charlotte, making sure that there was no sign of a slap on her face. Only then did he walk up to Kendall.

Kendall kept retreating in fear until her back hit the wall, and there was no more space for her to hide.

"Don't come near me!"

"Kendall, do you know that during historical times, those who worked in the intelligence field were most afraid of people who provide information to the superiors?"

Kendall's face instantly turned pale. "You're merely a businessman."

Shane said with a blank face, "I've never said that I'm just a businessman."

She couldn't deal with Shane by herself.

She needed somebody else's help.

First, she had to get out of here. Then she would gather a team so that these two people would regret humiliating her today!

Kendall stood up and limped off the room.

When she passed by Charlotte, she glared at her with intense fury.

Charlotte immediately reached out and grabbed her on the shoulder. Before Kendall could react, she gave her a hard slap. "We're even now."

This time, tears streamed down Kendall's face. She pointed at Charlotte's nose. Her voice trembled as she screamed, "What right do you have to hit me? You..."

"An eye for an eye. Since Shane has already offended you, you will definitely hate me because of him. Then why should I be the kind person? You can just hate me. It doesn't matter."

"You wait and see!"

Kendall left.

Charlotte's legs instantly went limp, and she almost lost her balance. Luckily, Shane was quick enough to react.

"You really sent your spies to my company..." She rested listlessly in his arms, not wanting to move.

Even if it was a tiger's cave and not Shane's arms, she wouldn't feel like moving either.

"Is that not allowed?"

"I don't know, but thank you."

Whether it was a dream or not, thank you.

Shane held her tightly in his arms and said, "The doctor said you pushed yourself too hard recently. These two days..."

"It's just low blood sugar, I don't need you to take care of me. If you can, can you help me protect Sheryl? I'm afraid that Kendall will go crazy."

"Don't worry. After all..."

She was his daughter too.

Charlotte didn't know what he was going to say. She smiled and continued, "After all, she calls you daddy and even said that you're a superman."
