Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Charlotte ignored Avery and walked downstairs on her own.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw Shane's car parked right there.

She walked up to him and knocked on his car window.

The person in the car rolled down his window, revealing his long fingers that held a cigar.

He looked at her.

"Mr. Fuller, you started following us right after we left the bar. Is there anything wrong?" "Did I interrupt your intimate moment with him?" he sneered coldly.

"Do you think there's any chance betweenand Avery? He was drunk, and he calledbecause he mistookfor his sister." "How do you know he lives here?" "I saw it on his ID card. I picked up his wallet and found his ID card in his pocket." Charlotte's reply was flawless.

Shane glared at her intensely. The night breeze was slightly chilly, but his gaze was even colder.

So?" "I once heard from a hacker that the motive behind Avery's arrival at River City was not that simple. Seeing that you followed him today, I'm more certain of it. Moreover, I learned that you gave him sdocuments..." Charlotte stopped talking and didn't continue.

"You want to get information about Avery from me?" "You could say so. After all, we are on the steam now. Of course, you can ignore it, but I can't. The partnership with Avery was the first project I've ever joined willingly without Rick's involvement." Charlotte thought that her argument was sufficient.

However, Shane's lips curled into a smile. He tapped the cigar with his long finger, and the ashes of the cigar dropped onto the side of the car.

"He's investigating my dead father." "Is this why you followed him?" "The year he investigated happened to be the year my father passed away. That means if someone investigated your mother..." Charlotte's expression changed upon hearing that.

After Shane put out his cigar, he placed it inside of the ashtray in his car and said with a cold tone, "Do you understand it now?" "I'm sorry." "No need to be." "But I don't think you'll be able to get anything out of him today. He's drunk, so it's better to leave earlier," Charlotte said as she turned around to leave.

"Wait." Charlotte stopped walking, but she did not turn around to look at him.

Shane started his car and said, "I'll send you back. Let Avery drive your car to Jane Corporation tomorrow." Charlotte spun around in shock. Everything went exceptionally well. She didn't even know whether Shane actually fell for her lies or he completely saw through her lies...

In the end, she still got into his car.

"How are things going on between you and Rick?" Shane asked, "I saw the news about us." "I told him that I can stop seeing you, but he toldthat I don't have to do that. It's just that he..." He said that he was the third person in the relationship all along.

Charlotte's heart ached at the thought of his words.

Shane gave her a sidelong glance and said, "You're provoking him by saying that." "Why?" She was baffled.

"If you and I have nothing to hide, why can't we see each other in the future?" "Well..." "And, unless you voluntarily give up on the dividend from your partnership with Avery, as well as to cease the business relationship between Jane Corporation and NC. Otherwise, what reasons do you have to not see me?" Shane continued to ask rhetorically.

"I..." "Last but not least, even if you're not willing to see me, River City is only so big. There will be hundreds of banquets organized by different people at different locations in a month. We'll still see each other somehow." This time, Charlotte simply stopped talking.

Shane laughed sarcastically. "Even if you don't take everything stated previously into consideration, can you explain clearly what happened tonight or you're just going to ignore it?" Feeling defeated, Charlotte closed her eyes and sighed.

"Looks like you're still not strong enough." "I think I'm too naive." "It's good that you noticed that." After that, they remained speechless throughout the journey.

When they almost arrived at Rick's villa, Shane abruptly stepped on the brake.

Charlotte was thinking about how things between her and Rick would work out in the future when the car suddenly stopped, jolting her body forward. Luckily, her head didn't hit the dashboard because the seatbelt remained strapped across her torso.

"We've arrived?" She looked up.

It was a crossroad in front of the district.

"Do you really plan to stop seeingin the future?" "I just feel like nothing good happens whenever we see each other," she explained.

She chose to forget the things that he had purposely done to hurt her. But honestly, she was slightly terrified of the things that would happen inevitably.

The idea of building a small and stable family with Rick sounded better to her.

Shane pressed the button beside him and said, "Get out of the car." "Okay," Charlotte responded and reached out to open the door.

It would take at least 20 minutes for her to walk inside...

Shane's eyes suddenly darkened. He stepped on the accelerator the second before she opened the door. Charlotte had already opened the door before that. So when Shane suddenly drove his car forward, all the colors on her face instantly drained away. "What are you doing!" She shouted.

"I'll send you back." "Then why did you orderto get off the car just now?" Shane remained silent.

Charlotte clenched her fist. If she had moved a little faster just now, she could have fallen out of the car and turned into a puddle of meat paste. Well, actually that was exaggerated. After all, the car was still moving at a very slow speed at the beginning.

But it was enough to make her shudder with terror.

After a while, the car stopped steadily in front of the villa.

'Are you sure you won't start driving all of a sudden?" Charlotte asked in a fearful manner.

"Where else can we drive to?" Shane was speechless.

Unless he reversed, it was impossible for his car to move forward.

Charlotte swiftly opened the car door and left without looking back.

Shane gazed at her and gently scratched his eyebrows.

Bad things would happen when she was with him, so that was why they shouldn't meet in the future? He didn't believe in that ridiculous reason.

She didn't want to see him because of Rick.

At that moment, Shane's cellphone rang. He answered wearily, "Who's this?" "Daddy! When are you coming home? I can only sleep if I listen to a bedtstory." Shane glanced at his watch.

It was already 10:30 pm. He almost forgot about the little cutie at home.

"I'll be right back." His voice was soft and gentle.

"It's so late and you're still not hyet. Did you go find a stepmother for Sheryl?" The little girl sounded very unhappy.

"I was sending your mommy home." "Mommy? Wow..." Did the little girl imagine something terrible? Shane wanted to explain a little, but what could such a young child imagine? "I'll hang up first. I'm coming hnow." "OK, daddy. Don't worry about it," Sheryl added in an adorable voice, "Spend more twith mommy, It's going to be okay, daddy!" With that, the little girl ended the call.

Shane leaned to one side and looked at the villa.

She didn't need his company.

The following day.

The first thing Charlotte did when she arrived at the office was to look for Rick's assistant.

Rick's assistant said that Blake was released on bail, but the person who caused the trouble demanded Charlotte and Rick to write a dispute settlement letter.

"What the hell is going on?" Charlotte put the documents in front of the assistant. "You're not someone who would make such a stupid mistake." "Freceived the news from a friend who works at the police station. I can assure you that Blake has been bailed, but maybe that's the only thing that happened to him."

"There are a total of two situations where one would be bailed. The first one is when the case is still being tried the second one is when the arrest warrant has yet to be issued. Besides these two possibilities..." Charlotte muttered to herself. The assistant was taken aback. "Are you suggesting that I've been scammed?" Charlotte didn't give her the answer immediately.

Technically, Blake shouldn't have been bailed due to his convictions for assault and kidnapping.

"Maybe he comes from an influential background. Anyways, please helpto investigate this matter." "Yes." "By the way, you can also investigate Blake's interpersonal relationship." "Alright." After the assistant left, Charlotte took a deep breath.

She was afraid that things might not be as simple as they seemed.
