Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

In the Emerson's villa.

"You foolish imbecile!" Upon leaving NC Corporation, Yuliana had immediately gone to the Emerson residence in search of her sister, to confide to her about what happened with Shane.

However, Elaine lambasted her as soon as she finished explaining her situation.

Yuliana looked hurt. She asked in confusion, "Sis, why are you scolding me? It was that b*tch Charlotte Emerson who seduced Shane! What's wrong withasking Shane to fire her?" "You were used as cannon fodder and yet you' re still complacent. It's no wonder Shane looks down on you!" Out of frustration, Elaine rolled her eyes at her incompetent sister.

During the banquet, she had already noticed Shane's attitude toward Charlotte. It was as if he was a totally different person.

With today's incident, it was no doubt that Charlotte had managed to find herself an all-around protector to back her up.

It seemed to Elaine that she had to speed things up a little.

She quickly reorganized her thoughts. From the corner of her eyes, she peeped at a whimpering Yuliana.

She sighed helplessly and softened her tone. "I'll help you cup with a solution for this mess. For now, I want you to head hand wait for my command. You must also take note not to provoke Charlotte at the moment. Do you understand?" "Sis, but why?" Don't you also hate that b*tch to death?" Yuliana persisted, unwilling to accept defeat.

She found herself unreconciled with the thought of Charlotte getting away under Shane's protection. "Just do as I tell you to. Else, I better not find you running back toin tears and begging for my help when anything goes wrong," Elaine snapped back at Yuliana.

Now that Elaine had said it this way, Yuliana was left with no choice but to follow Elaine's orders despite the million things she couldn't place her finger around.

"I'll head back first, then." Yuliana obediently picked up her bag and left the Emerson residence.

After her departure, the butler walked out of the kitchen with a bowl in his hands. He cto Elaine and reported respectfully, "Ma'am, Mr. Emerson's herbal soup is ready." "Got it, I'll take it from here." Elaine carefully brought the bowl up to the second floor. Her steps halted in front of the door to the study room and she knocked twice.

"Cin," replied a man's voice, accompanied by a coughing fit.

Elaine pushed the door open and headed straight to the desk. She placed the bowl of herbal soup on the desk and stepped behind Timothy. She put her hands on his shoulders and began gently massaging them. Then, she cooed gently, "Dear, you must be tired. Why don't you take a break?" Timothy let out a couple of coughs. He removed his glasses and rubbed his temples. "The eastern suburbs is planning to establish an opera house. Bidding has just commenced." He pointed at the design drafts in front of him and grunted, "Look at these. What were they even thinking?" "Is NC Corp also running in the bidding?" probed Elaine.

Timothy nodded silently with a grim look on his face. This was also the main contributor to his anger.

Since the month of March, the Emerson Corporation's winning rate had begun to dwindle. Their biggest competitor was this small, unknown company.

Timothy had already engaged people to conduct a background check on this company on many occasions, but nothing of importance was unearthed.

This was a cause of his constant headache.

"Timothy," Elaine walked over to the desk again, picking up the bowl on the table and placing it in Timothy' s hands. "There's something I'm not sure if I should tell you about." "What is it?" Elaine bit her lip contritely. "It's Charlotte. She's returned." Rather than waiting for Timothy to find out from others, she figured it would be better to tell him the news herself.

As expected, Timothy' s face instantly darkened.

After all, back then, Charlotte didn't heed his orders and had run away instead.

On top of that, it had been five years since she left.

"To think that this unfilial daughter of mine still has the nerve to cback! Where did you see her?" "It was at Alistair's birthday party." Elaine's eyelids drooped to avoid eye contact with Timothy in an act of timidness from shame.

Timothy was enraged. He raised his voice and berated, "Why did you wait before telling me?" His reproach brought tears to Elaine's eyes and her words quivered with her voice, laced with remorse.

"That's because I was afraid you'd get angry like this once you found out." Beads of tears rolled down Elaine's cheeks. It was as though they fell into Timothy's fire of rage, extinguishing it considerably.

'T m not..." Faced with Elaine's teary eyes, Timothy's mind plunged into chaos. He struggled to find the right words to piece together an explanation.

Elaine cleverly seized the opportunity to give him an out. She wiped her tears away and began, "I know you O miss Charlotte, but the reason she cback that night was to sever ties with you and the Emersons in front of everyone. I couldn't stop her even if I wanted to. What would happen if I were to tell you? There's no doubt you would... Ah, Timothy!"

Before Elaine could finish her el sentence, Timothy's face had already contorted in a gruesexpression. He clutched his chest as his body tipped backward. With difficulty, his lips parted to speak. "This... unfilial daughter..." As soon as the words left his lips, his vision turned dark and he passed out.
