Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Charlotte thought about Braden's dimwittedness... She couldn't help but laugh.

"It is indeed better to rely on Sheryl than Mr. Collins." "Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean by that?" At this time, Braden and Anne cover. He protested unhappily, "Do you think so lowly of me?" Rick's face was very pale as he tried to pull a smile. "I really can't think of anything else other than you being good to Anne." "Wow, what you said really hurt me. Shane, do you think my image is that bad?" "I've seen you being worse," Shane said calmly.

What he said wasn't funny but it was how Shane delivered it in such a calm manner.

Even Rick could not help but twitch his lips.

His action caused more blood to gush out of his wounds.

Charlotte quickly rushed to his side and took off her clothes to help him cover his wound.

"I'm fine." Rick reached out and gently stroked her cheek. "I'm sorry, I made you worry." She shook her head. "It's my job to be worried." Rick smiled and replied, "Okay." Shane noticed the two of them flirting immediately. His jaw tightened and he pursed his lips but his gaze remained on Charlotte's face. She was really worried about Rick.

"Brother, this is what you call a blessing in disguise. Look at how worried Lottie was," Anne joked.

"Whose fault was it?" Rick looked at her coldly.

"Well, Braden..." Anne hid behind Braden.

Braden shielded her behind him and put on a silly smile. "If you're mad, you can scoldall you want. It's my fault for not keeping an eye on her." "You both are exactly the same. I wouldn't remember even if I scolded either one of you." Rick grimaced in pain, beads of sweat formed on his forehead.

Charlotte grabbed his hand and said, "Rick..." Rick shook his head at her.

The atmosphere was becoming grimmer.

At first, they could still joke around. Now that Rick's situation had turned worse, they didn't even have the mood to talk.

Fortunately, the ambulance arrived very quickly. Rick was brought into the ambulance. Charlotte and Anne got into the car since only two family members were allowed.

Braden stood beside Shane and said, "Shane, if you had ca little later today, he would have died." "What are you trying to say?" "If you were crueler, all of Rick's shares and Charlotte's would've belonged to you." Braden turned around and looked at him thoughtfully. "Didn't you always tellone should be cruel and merciless as a businessman and that you should only seek profit?" Shane remained silent.

Braden grabbed his shoulders tightly. "I didn't recognise this before. I only thought Charlotte and Sheryl added energy to your life. But now, I see, they didn't add energy but weaknesses." Shane didn't deny what Braden said.

"In the past, you would rather take the tto read a book than cand save Rick." After a long silence, Shane finally answered, "Braden, situations change with time." Tears welled up in Braden's eyes. He was speechless.

"I can understand if Charlotte and Sheryl are your weaknesses. At least you like them. But what about Rick? Why did you save him?" Braden was right.

He would be the one who profited the most if Blake had killed Rick.

If he didn't save him...

Shane's eyes turned dark. He lowered his head and rubbed his eyebrows.

His thoughts were very simple at the moment he saved Rick. If he dies, Charlotte would be devastated.

Before he could contemplate the outcome, he had already kicked away Blake's blade.

That was all.

At the hospital.

Rick was lying on the hospital bed, staring at the ceiling absent-mindedly.

He arrived at the hospital half an hour ago. He was on the brink of death as he had lost too much blood. Fortunately, the doctor's were able to save his life. But he had wounded his stomach so he couldn't eat normally for the tbeing. He was also not allowed to eat anything for the next 24 hours. "Are you thirsty?" Charlotte walked to his side with swater and said, "The doctor said that I could feed you with scotton." "No need." Rick cto his senses and looked at her tenderly.

Charlotte smiled and sat down beside him. She held his hand gently. "It was really fortunate you were saved. I will report to you the company's situation every day. You just take this chand and rest well." Rick looked at her hand hesitantly and finally said, "I wanted to tell you, since we're married, we should spend more ton our family. I can find a qualified CEO to replace me." "Can you do that? We're still at the starting stages..." "I will still personally take care of anything important." Charlotte was silent for a long time. Finally, she nodded and said, "Okay." In fact, she didn't know much about the company's affairs but she just hoped that he could rest more, even if it was not for family but for himself.

"Knock! Knock! Knock!" Someone knocked on the door.

Charlotte stood up and opened the door. Braden was holding a big bouquet of carnations in his hands. "Brother, look what I brought you." The corners of Rick's mouth twitched and he said helplessly, "Why giveflowers out of the blue?" "Anne toldyou can't eat anything. I thought since you already have everything else, I might as well give you sflowers." Braden put the flowers on his bedside and quipped, "How is it? Does it look good?" It did look good.

But his brother-in-law gave him carnations...

Rick felt it was slightly awkward for him to accept them.

At that moment, Shane walked in.

"Here you are." He handed a small box to Charlotte.

Charlotte quickly accepted it and read the contents. However, it was all written in a foreign language so she couldn't understand it at all.

"What's this?" she asked curiously.

"Probiotics." Rick, who was lying on the bed, answered.

"You can read it from so far away?" Charlotte asked doubtfully.

Rick pointed at the packaging and said, "The labelling on the package is very noticeable."

Anyway, it was something Charlotte didn't understand so she didn't ask anything further. She put the Om probiotics on the table and felt it was inconvenient for the three of them to talk with her there... Charlotte quietly left the room. The moment she stepped out of the door, she saw Anne holding her phone. She seemed troubled as she let out a heavy sigh.

"What's wrong?" Charlotte sat down beside her.

"Look." Anne handed the phone to her.

Charlotte tilted her head...

It was a message from someone called Joseph. 'It's hard forto forget you. My heart aches when I heard you were engaged. Can't you giveanother chance? Can we meet up?' Joseph...

Charlotte remembered that he seemed to be Anne's ex-boyfriend long ago. Back in the day, Anne loved him so much but he cheated on her with another woman. He even boasted about their relationship in front of Anne all the time. "Why would you bother paying attention to someone like that?" Charlotte frowned.

"After all, I used to like him. I also want to see what he's up to this time. Who knows..." "He just can't see you living a good life. He wants to gain sattention from you. Don't be stupid." Anne hung her head and clenched her fists. "I know, I'm engaged to Braden." Charlotte sighed and said, "There's nothing between you and Joseph, why do you miss him?" "If I had a baby with him, I wouldn't be with Braden." Charlotte froze for a second and said with a bitter smile, "I was just trying to advise you but you turn it around to hurt me. Aren't we sisters?"

Anne was like a child who had done something wrong. She stuck out her "It's tongue mischievously and said, "It not like you've just known that you have a child. It's been five years, it's different." Alas! Everyone has their own hardships.

"Creak..." The door was pushed open.

Both of them looked up at the stime.
