Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Rick opened his mouth- "They don't understand you or me. Why should we care about them?" "That's because this will affect the stock price and cause the company to lose profits. They will think that you're a fool and won't believe in your products," Charlotte explained.

"I can abandon the company." Instinctively, Charlotte touched the metal bracelet on her wrist.

Rick leaned forward slightly and looked at her with a very serious expression. "I can give up everything I have for you. It doesn't matter if everyone laughs atas long as you are willing to be with me. They don't understand the kind of courage it would take." "Rick..." "Don't feel pressured. As I said before, I will tell you what I think, but what you choose is your business." "I'm sorry." She lowered her head and tears welled up in her eyes. "I thought that as long as I did what I should and did my best to consider your standpoint, it would be enough to repay you, but..." In the face of his desperate love.

Everything she did was in vain.

As long as she didn't love him, she would always owe him.

Unfortunately, she still did not love him.

"You don't need to repay me. You know very well that I have my pride. If you force yourself to stay by my side as my woman, it would only makesadder. We can keep going like this and let fate decide." Rick said as he stood up.

Charlotte suddenly reached out and grabbed his sleeve.

Rick stopped and tilted his head to one side to look at her.

She bit her lip with a blank look in her eyes. It seemed that she didn't know whether she had made the right decision or not.

He took her hand off his sleeve with a light smile, leaned over, and rubbed her hair. "I'm confident, so you don't have to force yourself." "I'll go back with you. I still have work to do." "You haven't eaten anything yet." "I'm not hungry." "I'll stay with you first while you eat." Charlotte nodded her head subconsciously.

Perhaps, she didn't want to go back to the company with him to deal with her, but she simply didn't want him to leave.

Charlotte didn't know what she was thinking either. She only knew that, at this moment, she wanted to cling to Rick. She didn't want to be unable to see him.

Something big happened with Brightshine.

The chairman was found to be involved in a scandal with the celebrity Tiffany Allen.

Brightshine had been in the midst of collaborating with NC Company. Once the scandal cto light, NC Company stopped working with Brightshine. They had quickly replaced Tiffany with a male celebrity as their spokesperson.

The series of actions were smooth like water. The speed of NC's public relations department was faster than any other company. Before the news could make its rounds, they had already responded. Charlotte and Rick returned to the office together, just in tto hear people talking about NC Company and Brightshine.

"What happened with NC Company?" Charlotte was confused.

"It's like this," Rick's secretary explained, "NC Company's CEO, Shane Fuller, had been rumored to be going out with Tiffany Allen before. Today, someone exposed the news that Tiffany had actually been in a relationship with one of Brightshine's directors. There are sindecent photos and videos too. As a result, NC Company stopped endorsing Tiffany." "What?" Charlotte suspected that she had heard wrongly.

Tiffany had always said that she liked Shane since she was ten. How was it that she was with a director from Brightshine? No, it couldn't be called a relationship.

That Brightshine director was not young anymore. Even if he wasn't old enough to be her father, he was definitely from an older generation. Although he did not look old, he was married with children. He had a nine- year-old son and a seven-year-old daughter. He had always had a good relationship with his wife too.

This sudden scandal would be a big blow to NC Company and Brightshine.

"However, NC Company has already decided to have Tiffany take on the next TV . To put it bluntly, they want her to stay away from trouble for the tbeing," the secretary explained. "That's typical." Charlotte smiled. "Tiffany means a lot to Shane." "What is their relationship?" Rick asked.

"I'm not sure what kind of feelings Shane has for Tiffany, but Tiffany said that she liked Shane since she was ten years old," Charlotte explained. Since Shane's past with Heidi Allen were complicated, Charlotte didn't know how to explain it, so she didn't mention it.

Rick could not help laughing when he heard that. "Why does it sound like a child playing house?" Charlotte lowered her head awkwardly.

The secretary said, "Tiffany had always had someone supporting her. But we never found any solid proof about her and Shane." "So it's fake?" "Tiffany may think it's true. When it comes to Shane, there is no need for him to use a little star to hype himself up. Most celebrities would be eager to have a relationship with him." "So what you're saying is..." "Shane could be taking care of Tiffany for sreason, and turned a blind eye to the matter of Tiffany's scandal." Rick nodded in understanding. That was indeed quite possible.

Charlotte frowned.

She wasn't sure about Shane's attitude towards Tiffany, but Shane must care about Heidi Allen very much. "Let's leave NC Company aside for now. Now we are collaborating with Brightshine. What do you think about that?" Rick asked.

"My suggestion is to wait and see," The secretary replied respectfully.

"That's right, I agree. Lottie, what do you think..." "I'll find a way to contact other companies. Please don't worry, Mr. Jane. I'll definitely find a company to collaborate with us before the 7th." "The 7th?" he wondered.

That was less than ten days from now.

Rick shook his head and said, "Let's put this project aside first. You take Sheryl on a vacation for a few days to relax. I'll contact the companies. If it doesn't work, we can postpone it." "I don't want you to lose." "Lottie, I won't lose, even if it's only for you." Charlotte bit her lip and clenched her fists stubbornly. "I can spend my whole life making up for Sheryl, but we only have one year." "We only have one year," he thought.

Rick felt sorry for Charlotte because he had put too much pressure on her. She didn't need to act this way.

"Mr. Jane, I'm going to work." Charlotte left in a hurry.

After Charlotte left, Rick gave a brief look to his secretary.

"What do you think of her?" "She's very good," the secretary replied.

"You like her?" "In theory, if I had to choose between Anne and Ms. Emerson, I would pick Ms. Emerson without hesitation," the secretary said.

"Did you make this decision before today or after?" The secretary laughed and said, "Mr. Jane, I graduated college with you. The people you like, even if they're not my cup of tea, wouldn't be people I dislike."

Rick patted him on the shoulder and said, "I just want to make sure my viewpoint is good." understand. It's always good to be a little more cautious when dealing with women, but Ms. Emerson is different from other women." "Is that so?"

"If it was an ordinary woman, they would have fallen for you once you hint at taking her away to live a good life. Butriot only did she not rebuke 上 you, she worked even harder to help you achieve success." "Doesn't that just mean that she thinks I'm testing her?" Rick said with a wry smile. He cared about Charlotte and was willing to give his heart, but he really didn't understand women.

The secretary shook his head. "A person with her personality would react that way.

it shows that she thinks that you are serious, so she feels even more guilty." "She worked hard to... repay me." "Yes, that's right." Rick waved his hand and the secretary immediately left.

If she were just sother woman, he would probably admire Charlotte. He would respect such a strong woman as her.

But since he liked her, he could only feel distressed.

The more she showed that she didn't want to bother him, the deeper into despair he sank.

He sank so deep that he even began to suspect that this might be part of her plan.

Charlotte returned to the office.

She went through all the companies in the country that she could collaborate with as fast as she could.

There were about three that had a decent price, with another one being too high.

Like RICH The other thirteen were all abroad.

That didn't work...

She had to go on a business trip.
