Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Blake had indeed been released on bail. The jury, on the other hand, was trying to sue Blake. However, the court had ruled that evidence was insufficient.

There were two reasons.

Firstly, no one could prove that it was Blake who hurt Rick. The injury might have been done by Rick himself. Even if there were witnesses, it was meaningless because all the people present at the scene were somehow related to Rick.

Secondly, nobody was able to prove that it was Blake who kidnapped Anne. The letter might have been fabricated by Anne to frBlake. Blake's lawyer used these two points and completely invalidated the jury's evidence. After that, he signed up for temporary release on bail.

Charlotte was incensed. Her hand, which was holding a document, was trembling. She wouldn't have thought that Blake could be this shameless.

Rick's assistant handed her the second piece of document. "About Blake's social circle that you askedto investigate earlier, I realize that he knows a lot of gangsters. Even though our country is implementing a crackdown on gangsterism, the remaining forces are actually stronger than before." "Are you saying that we can't solve the problem privately because we can't go against the law? And our only choice is to sign the dispute settlement understanding?" "Well, Ms. Emerson, I really have no idea. Jane Corporation has always been doing legal businesses, it was passed down through generations. Maybe you can ask Mr. Hart for advice." Avery? "He's on bad terms with Shane and still needs to investigate Shane's father. I'm afraid that he doesn't have that much tto care about what's happening betweenand Rick," she thought. Charlotte rubbed her temples and raised her hand. "You can leave first." "Ms. Emerson..." "I'll cup with my own solution." "Yes." After an entire hour, Charlotte was still unable to cup with an effective method.

Was it possible to make Blake pay for what he has done without breaching the law or contacting him privately? Unless she took a knife to chop him up and killed herself right away, there was no other option. Just when Charlotte was at her wits' end, Rick's assistant suddenly cin and said that a lady named Miss Stevens wanted to meet her.

Miss Stevens? Charlotte didn't have a girl friend with the last nStevens.

"Why is she looking for me?" "Uh, well, Miss Stevens is Mr. Jane's admirer..." Alright.

One problem cafter another.

Troublesthings always cin a pile.

Charlotte helplessly got up and walked towards the reception room.

In the reception room.

A girl wearing a cute pink chiffon dress sat quietly, holding a teacup in her hands. She raised her gaze and looked at Charlotte with contempt.

Charlotte was slightly startled.

This was kind of different from what she imagined.

"Hi, my nis Kendall Stevens." "Hi, may I know why you requested to see me?" I'm here to confirm sthings with you." Kendall put down his teacup and stood up politely. "You're engaged to Rick, is that right?" Charlotte nodded.

Kendall raised her chin slightly and continued with a smile, "I know you had a child with Shane and I have no problem with that because Rick doesn't have a problem with that either. What I care more about is the recent scandal about you and Shane " "There's nothing going on between us..." "Whether something's going on between both of you or not, you can just explain that to Rick." Kendall reached out her slender hand to signal that she was not done yet. "What I care about is your opinion of Shane." "I have no opinion." "So, you won't get back together with Shane, will you?" "I have never been together with him. The child was an accident. We...don't have feelings for each other." Kendall tilted her head and slightly raised her eyebrows. "According to my research, you guys were once married." Charlotte was taken aback.

Shane didn't tell the media about this. Where did Kendall get this information from? "Who the hell is she?" Charlotte thought.

"I heard that Jane Corporation is cooperating with Avery Hart recently, and that's why he traveled back from overseas. Do you know that the Stevens' overseas branch, Bamboofrost used to be the private intelligence agency that collaborated with Jane Corporation?" Bamboofrost.

Charlotte heard of this nbefore.

Their company's nliterally meant "the bamboo forest in the snow." People said that the founder adored bamboo forests and pandas very much but he lived in Iceland. Therefore, he cup with this nto express his yearning for his homeland.

"Sorry, Rick has never mentioned this before." "Hmm? Are you showing off?" Kendall squinted her eyes. Her gaze was intense.

"No. I definitely asked Rick before partnering with Avery, so..." Charlotte thought she was only being honest.

Kendall smiled and ran her hand through her short hair. She took a few steps forward and stood in front of Charlotte. Although she looked short and delicate, her heels made her look quite tall.

She stared down at Charlotte. "Miss Charlotte, it doesn't matter if you're showing off or not. We're already enemies." "I don't think that we're enemies," Charlotte said casually.

"Is that so?" "You care so much about Rick but you didn't go to the hospital to see him at once. This proves that I'm more important to you than Rick is. According to your personality, you wouldn't care so much about an enemy like me. So, there must be another reason why you wanted to seetoday." Kendall was a little stunned. But when she thought of Charlotte's past, she instantly shrugged it off.

"It's true. I've cto see you for something else." "Please elaborate." "I want to take care of Rick at the hospital. As a reward, I can give you 7% of my Emerson Corporation shares. I think you would really need that." "You have that much?" Charlotte widened her eyes.

A total of 7%! Don't underestimate this 7%.

Under the current situation, Charlotte owned 20% of the shares, Elaine owned 41% whereas Christopher owned 13%. The additional 7% share would certainly give her more say in the company. "After I finish taking care of Rick, I will give you the remaining 5%." Kendall immediately enticed Charlotte after seeing that she was tempted.

She had absolute confidence that Charlotte would definitely agree.

Charlotte was indeed tempted.

But soon, she was able to calm down.

"I'm sorry, Miss Stevens. Although this is an attractive opportunity, I'm afraid I cannot let you take care of my fiance." "What?" Kendall didn't expect that Charlotte would reject her.

"The shares obtained by betraying m my fiance will haunt my conscience. However, I can bring yoṭathe hospital to visit him. I'll let you stay there to take care of him." Kendall clenched her fists and stared fiercely at the person in front of her. The arrogance and disdain she had at first had completely vanished. Her palms were full of sweat.

"Why not?" "I allow you to stay by his side because of your friendship with him, and also because I trust my husband. Even if you admire him deeply, he will still lovethe same."

"You don't love him at all." Kendall stepped forward unconsciously. The tip of her nose pointed closely towards Charlotte's face. "Otherwise, you would have been jealous!" "You're right. I don't love him enough, but this is exactly why I can take good care of him. If I get jealous because of loving him too much, I might get in a fight with you, and that will be too exhausting for him." Kendall took a step back and said, "Where did he find someone like you, who's as composed as himself..." Was she similar to Rick? Charlotte didn't think that she was similar to Rick at all.

"Do you want to go to the hospital now? I have something to tell him." "Yes, I want to go." She wanted to see how Charlotte and Rick communicated with each other.

Charlotte returned to the office and picked up sdocuments about Blake. When she returned to the lobby, she saw Kendall talking politely and elegantly to the employees. She was somewhat envious of Kendall.

The kind of charisma radiated from someone who cfrom a great family and was loved by her parents was the kind of charisma she would never have.

Kendall noticed Charlotte's gaze and turned around to smile at her. She waved her hand and said, "Miss Emerson, let's go now?" "Alright." Charlotte walked over to her side and added, "CallLottie, Miss Emerson doesn't sound friendly." || "You don't mind if I call you Lottie?" After her arrogance disappeared, she was just like an adorable and playful baby fox.
