Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Even though Charlotte was suspicious, she did not ask. She led the way to the office. At the elevator, she pressed the button to go upstairs.

For a few seconds when they were in the elevator, Charlotte surreptitiously looked at Christopher from the corner of her eye.

He was still wearing the skind of clothes, and had the sfacial features. Even his temperament had not changed much. So why did she feel that he was not being sincere with her? That was until.

They entered Rick's office.

Rick's lips curved upward. He pointed at the coffee machine and said, "You can get something to drink first. No need to rush." All of a sudden, Charlotte felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She was as dumb as a wooden doll and unable to move. She finally understood.

She was comparing Christopher to Rick.

In fact, the personalities of these two people were somewhat similar. They were gentle, kind to others, gentlemanly and polite. However, after having been in contact with Rick for a long time, she felt that Christopher was a sham when compared to Rick. "What's the matter?" Rick stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her. "What are you daydreaming about?" "I had scoffee downstairs, I'm not that thirsty." Charlotte lowered her head and sat down on the sofa.

Rick was helpless. He took the documents from the desk and sat down with her.

Christopher sat opposite to them and held out his resume. "My detailed information is in here. Please have a look, Mr. Jane." As Rick accepted the resume, he handed over a document as well. "These are the positions at our company that are vacant. Please have a look, Mr. Gibson." "Alright." All that could be heard was the sound of pages being turned.

Christopher's reswas clean and concise, without too many entries on it.

Except for the fact that he had been in NC Company for several years, he did not have any outstanding achievements.

Even when it cto the projects he had participated in while at NC Company, he still held back and did not detail everything. At least, sof what Charlotte knew was true had not been written there. "Mr. Gibson, is there a position you are interested in?" Rick asked with a smile.

"Not yet. All the positions suitable forhave been filled. Although I would be compensated, I would need to go on business trips." Rick sighed. "I brought a lot of my staff back from abroad." "Yes, but we can still cooperate." "To deal with NC Company?" Rick asked.

"No, I have sshares for the Emerson Corporation. I want to exchange them with you." "I'll need to think about it." "Well, then I'll wait for the good news. If you have decided, you can contactat any time." 'Rick stood up and said goodbye to Christopher with a smile.

Charlotte didn't know if Rick had sensed anything. Either way, it was very difficult for her to calm down now. There were too many problems exposed in this meeting. She went to where the coffee machine was and took a glass of cold water for herself.

After drinking the water, she felt a little better.

When Rick returned, Charlotte put her hands on the table. Her eyebrows were tightly knitted and her expression was distorted. She looked at the document in confusion.

"Do you think there is something wrong with Christopher Gibson?" Rick cto her side and took away the document.

This was the hiring information he had just given to Christopher.

Charlotte nodded. She pointed at the document and said, "You're testing him too. The information you've given him isn't correct at all." "He cfor the Fuller Corporation stock, not to join the Jane Corporation." "So that's why..." || "He's like me. He likes to play with appearances." Charlotte laughed with a "huff" sound.

Rick reached over and rubbed at her hair. The action was so intimate that both of them were stunned, and then they kept a distance from each other.

Rick returned to his desk and sat down, lightly tapping the table with his long fingers. "I suspect that the person who is causing trouble behind the scenes is Christopher. I don't know what relationship he has with the Emerson family for the tbeing." "Christopher wouldn't do such a thing, right? Isn't he Shane's friend?" Although Charlotte also felt that Christopher was a little inauthentic, the feeling she had at that moment was not enough to cancel out his previous kindness towards her.

"Does what he did make him seem like Shane's friend?" "I don't understand." "When you compare Braden's reaction when he sees you withwith Christopher's reaction, you'll find the answer." Indeed.

Braden had always been disgusted when Charlotte stood with Rick every time. Ordinarily, he would sneer at Rick even when unprovoked. He had even painted Shane in a good light when he was with her. But during the whole process just now, Christopher never mentioned Shane. If he saw Shane as a friend, he would at least ask himself why he was here and why he wanted to work for Rick. Christopher didn't.

In other words, he didn't consider Shane seriously, and he didn't think she had anything to do with Shane.

"Then about this matter..." "I'm going to tell Shane about it. You go back to your office first." Rick said as he picked up the phone.

Was he going to tell Shane again? Was Rick doing all this for her? Charlotte opened her mouth. In the end, she did not say anything at all.

She only knew that nothing in the world mattered except for Rick.

He was truly someone who treated her well.

Beep, beep, beep- "What's the matter?" Shane's voice rang out from the side.

"Christopher cto see Lottie. I suspect that he may be involved with NC Company's fraud case. Be careful." "Is Charlotte with you?" "She's not here." "So why do you make this call?" Rick felt helpless. He was also a man with a temper, so he said in a heavier tone, "Shane, can't we sympathize with each other? I don't want to treat you as an enemy. What's more, the cost of being enemies is too high, isn't it?" Shane didn't answer.

Rick had no choice but to continue, "I really love Charlotte, so even if you're unhappy withbecause of that, you should accept my challenge openly." "Challenge? No need." "Shane, I don't want to put Charlotte in a difficult position. I wouldn't even have any complaints if she chose you. You may like her, but I love her. For her, I can be humble, and I can do everything for." Rick clenched his fists. "I want her happiness." Shane simply ended the call.

Rick looked at the dark phone screen and smiled bitterly.

He wanted to find as many ways out as possible for Charlotte.

However, Shane was simply a stubborn person.

He even began to wonder if Shane really cared about Charlotte, or if he had an ulterior motive that could only be accomplished with Charlotte on the line? Rick clenched his fists.

He wouldn't let anyone hurt Charlotte.

Definitely not.

The Jane Corporation received an invitation to attend a cocktail party.

There was no need for Rick to attend such a thing. However, due to the fact that Charlotte had to attend, he had also prepared a suit for himself.

Ever since five years ago, Charlotte had given up on being wasteful. She simply borrowed a dress from Anne and sent it to dry cleaners to clean so that she could wear it on that day.

Officially, it was a cocktail party.

In actuality, it was a charity event.

In the suburbs of River City, there was a group of people who had skin like scales. This kind of person was called "fishpeople". If they could not get enough vitamin E, their whole body would start bleeding, sometimes to death. The purpose of this charity event was to buy carrots for them, which could be made into carrot juice to supplement their vitamin E intake.

Carrots aren't worth much, but there were more than 20,000 people with ichthyosis.

The water content of a carrot was not a lot. In total, they required nearly three million dollars.

If this money was only paid by the government, the higher-ups would definitely not be willing, so this cocktail party was organized.

"It's only 3 million dollars. For a group like ours, any one of us can take out this money, Why do we still need to raise money?" Charlotte was very puzzled as she held the invitation.

"So as not to beca target.

Whoever offers to take out the money would bectarget in the eyes of others in the industry. If it hof were up to the higher-ups to choose someone to pay, the others would be dissatisfied." No wonder people said the government and businesses didn't get along.

Charlotte nodded. "I understand." "You're now the CEO of the Jane Corporation. I will sign you up for lessons in politics and economics so that you can learn about it." Rick didn't even look up as he worked.

Learning...

A bitter expression appeared on Charlotte's face.

However, when she thought about it, she still hadn't gotten her revenge. Even if she had to literally fight, she would do it, much less take slessons.
