Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

"I'm going hfor a bit. Please postpone today's meeting by half an hour." Timothy picked up the suit jacket hanging on the rack and left the office in a hurry.

At Emerson family house, Elaine placed her hand on a man's waist and walked into the empty villa with a smile on her face.

"There's really no one here." The man felt at ease instantly and kissed a coquettish Elaine in his arms. He heard her laugh in satisfaction.

"Would I lie to you?" Elaine pretended to punch him angrily, but not very forcefully. She continued, "Don't you trust me?" "Of course I do." The man tightened his arm around Elaine. He raised the corner of his mouth handsomely and said, "Baby, I've always trusted you." "That's more like it." Satisfied, Elaine broke away from the man's hold, walked around the vast living room, and then sat down on a leather sofa.

"This will be mine in the future. What do you think?" "Very nice, but are you sure that the old guy, Timothy, won't suddenly cback?" The man was still a little worried as he looked around.

Elaine stared at him with her beautiful eyes. Her face, which was covered with a thick and heavy white foundation, looked a little unnatural. In the end, she snorted.

"He would have toldif he's coming back. Don't worry, he won't cback." After hearing Elaine's promise, the man instantly becbold.

"Where's our son? I haven't seen him in a while." "Alistair has gone to school. Did you think that everyone is as ignorant and incompetent as you? But I really feel a little sorry for Timothy. He's even raising someone else's son, haha." Elaine's laughter gradually drifted into Timothy's hearing, who had been hiding outside the door for stime.

"You scandalous couple!" Timothy clutched his collar tightly and thumped at his heart. His feet trembled as they moved.

"Ti... Timothy, listen to me." Elaine suddenly turned around. When she saw the man standing at the door with his briefcase, she instantly becworried and walked toward Timothy. As soon as her hand touched his arm, she was thrown off by him ruthlessly.

"Get lost!" Still exasperated, Timothy coughed violently.

"Timothy..." The man who had been standing behind Elaine suddenly stood in front of her to protect her. He arrogantly looked at Timothy before him and said word by word, "Old man, I'm not afraid to tell you that Alistair is my child. Thanks for taking care and loving him for so many years.." "You... you..." Timothy pointed at the two of them standing side by side. Suddenly, he took a few steps backward and tried to grasp at something with his weak hands. In the end, he only slid down the wall. "Timothy?" Elaine looked at Timothy, who was motionless on the ground, and walked over mechanically, trying to reach out to him. "He... he..." As Elaine looked at the man on the ground, her legs turned weak. She continued, "What should we do? What should we do?" "Let's take him to the hospital first." The man put his hand gently on Elaine's shoulder and said softly. There was a flash of shrewdness in his eyes. "Alright, you leave first. Leave the rest to me." Elaine took a deep breath. This was the moment she had been waiting for. She had planned for a long tfor this day. She had not even hesitated in sacrificing her youth. Now, she had to calm down.

In order to avoid other people's suspicions, Elaine quickly dialed the emergency hotline. It was only after the ambulance arrived that Elaine pretended to cry fiercely.

"Doctor, save him quickly!" "Please, I'm begging you." Elaine clutched at the doctor's sleeve with snot and tears on her face. She did not care about her own image at all.

Outside the emergency room, Elaine looked at the light. A wicked smile slowly crept to her mouth, forming a sharp contrast with the family members of past patients.

The hour-long rescue procedures didn't manage to save Timothy's life. As Elaine watched a white cloth being pulled over the man, she didn't feel afraid at all. She tiptoed toward him.

"Timothy, I was going to lie to you for the rest of your life, but since you decided to eavesdrop, I'll explain it to you clearly. Not that you have the chance to change anything." Elaine suddenly took a step back and continued to say, "It doesn't matter anymore whether Alistair is your son or not. Everything belonging to the company and the Emerson family will be mine. Oh yes, I also have the will that you modified stago. I really don't understand. You've already disowned Charlotte. Why is she still getting an inheritance!" At the mortuary, there was only the sound of Elaine's chattering teeth, which made the atmosphere very strange.

"It's so cold here!" Elaine constantly rubbed her hands to get warm, but the smile on her face never disappeared. She continued, "But it doesn't matter. I've hidden that will of yours somewhere no one will find it. Charlotte won't be getting anything!" After that, Elaine left without looking back.

Since Charlotte and Shane's relationship was still not public knowledge and due to Elaine purposefully keeping it quiet, the news of Timothy's death didn't spread to Charlotte or anyone close to her.

The luxury car looked very out of place as it drove into a remote town. Although they couldn't see clearly the people who sat in it, the car drew the envious gazes of many people.

In the car, Charlotte had already woken up. When she found out from Cole who they were here to see, Charlotte becvery excited.

"Where is she?" Charlotte asked anxiously.

Even if she still couldn't find an answer, she wouldn't be discouraged.

"Miss Charlotte, the house in front is the place. According to the investigation, that person who lives there was an old servant of your father. You should be aware of that." Cole looked at Charlotte and pointed at an ordinary two-story bungalow right in front of him.

Charlotte nodded nervously. She remembered that, many years ago, Ms. Coco had always treated her like her own daughter.

Her memories from more than ten years ago had been unlocked...

"Miss Lottie, today, I made your favourite Coca-Cola chicken wings. Isn't that great?" Charlotte, who had just reached the side of the table, nodded her head forcefully. She lifted her small, delicate face and let out a giggle.

"Ms. Coco is the best!" After getting off the car, Charlotte frowned as she approached the small courtyard. The door to the house was tightly shut.

"I'll do it myself." When she saw that Cole was about to press the doorbell, Charlotte immediately stopped him.

"Ding dong-Ding dong-11 The doorbell suddenly rang out in the courtyard of the two-story house. Charlotte's heart was caught in her throat.

"Who is it?"

The door was suddenly opened, and a thick male voice cfrom inside.

He looked at Shane and Charlotte, who were obviously not typical visitors, standing outside, but she did. not open the door fully to them. "Who are you looking for?" There was a hint of ill will in his tone.

"Does Ms. Coco live here?" Charlotte asked.

Suddenly, she felt a burst of anticipation.

"Who's looking for me?" Charlotte instantly raised her head and looked at the room where the familiar voice was coming from. Her eyes teared up.

"Ms... Ms. Coco."

Charlotte clenched her fists tightly and cried out in a trembling voide. She didnot notice that Shane's demeanour had changed.

The woman who had just walked to the door of the living room ving roomimmediately turned her back and said slowly, "I'm sorry, you've mistakenfor someone else." "I didn't make a mistake, Ms. Coco. I'm Lottie, the girl you've been looking after since I was a child." Charlotte shouted loudly, afraid that Ms. Coco wouldn't be able to hear her.

"You can leave now. I'm not Ms. Coco. My nis Amanda." The woman raised her head slightly, as if she was enduring something difficult.
