Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Zoe wanted to ask Peter why he didn't tell her, but she felt that he probably have his reasons. After several hesitations, she decided not to ask. She chose to ask him about his thoughts regarding his past few birthdays. However, he specially recorded his birthday in a notebook, which meant he still cared about it.

Speaking of which, as her girlfriend, she was indeed quite incompetent. She didn't even know when her boyfriend's birthday was.

After Peter finished taking a shower and returned to the room, he noticed Zoe was watching a video, which seemed to be about making a cake. He lay down beside her and leaned over to ask her curiously, "Why are you suddenly interested in making cakes?" "Isn't there an oven at home? I want to make something to eat," Zoe said.

"Why can't we just buy it from the store?" Peter asked disapprovingly.

"Making it on your own is more special. Think about it. If we can make our own cakes on either your birthday or my birthday, isn't that particularly meaningful?" "We're quite busy..." Peter still thought it was too much work.

He didn't tell others about his birthday because he thought it would be a bother. Especially with so many things going on in their lives, he still had to take tto celebrate his birthday. Just thinking about it made him feel stressed.

Zoe felt that she could almost grasp Peter's thoughts, so she stopped watching cake videos and changed to other videos.

Peter placed his hands on the back of his head like a pillow and fell asleep soon. Zoe gave it a deep thought, and she felt like she was still a little apologetic towards Peter.

Although it felt like he didn't fancy the idea of ceremonies, she couldn't help but feel a little apologetic in her heart now that she had found out. It was still fine if she didn't know about it. After thinking about it for a while, she finally opened the chatroom with Charlotte.

Zoe tapped on the keyboard with her fingertips and said, "Lottie, are you there?" "Yes, lam." Almost in a second, Charlotte replied.

"I want to ask if you can doa favor tomorrow?" A surprise for Peter's birthday! Charlotte looked at Zoe's message and couldn't help squinting her eyes. That was a great idea. Moreover, she recently found a great dessert shop and wanted to buy sof their desserts to try out if she was free. And now Zoe directly gave her a chance.

At this hour, most dessert shops had already closed. Charlotte had no choice but to make an appointment first. Since she had to work in the morning, she ordered the cake to arrive at around 11 am. This way, it would be perfect for lunch and tea time.

And she bought sflowers too.

As for gifts, Zoe said that she would buy cologne and clothes, so she would just give them to him...

Charlotte suddenly felt like there was nothing suitable for her to gift Peter, so she could only ask the man next to her, "Shane, I just knew that today is Peter's birthday. I'm planning to make it up to him tomorrow. What should I give him as a present?" "Didn't Peter just celebrate his birthday?" Shane frowned.

"I heard from Zoe that his actual birthday is different from the date on his identity card..." Charlotte didn't know much about this either.

Besides, she didn't think too much after hearing Zoe say that it was Peter's birthday. She was only thinking about how to celebrate Peter's birthday.

Shane stood up and pulled open the drawer. He took out an emerald bamboo from the drawer and handed it to Charlotte. "I bought a present for him when I went overseas." Charlotte took the bamboo in her hand. The bamboo felt cold, which made her feel comfortable.

Even if it was just a piece of jade, it was still a priceless treasure, not to mention the way it was carved into a bamboo. It was very suitable for Peter.

"This is your gift for him. I can't take it from you, can I?" Charlotte felt it wasn't very appropriate. Peter was one of Shane's men after all, not her subordinate.

"We'll gift this together." "That's too stingy..." "This bamboo can buy a house." Charlotte instantly felt that it was not too bad for the two of them to give a gift together. There was no need for too many presents. Yes, just like that.

The next day.

As soon as Charlotte arrived at the company, she received a call from the flower shop. The florist said that they could start delivering flowers and asked when she wanted them to be delivered.

Zoe decided to have it delivered at 12 pm, and the cake would arrive at 11:30 am. But she thought it would be okay if the flowers arrived earlier, so Charlotte moved the delivery tto 9 am. With that, not only could she spare stto prepare, but she could also decorate the flowers if they didn't look fresh enough.

Soon, the flowers arrived at the company. Charlotte and Shane took the flowers together and went upstairs in their exclusive elevator. Their action unbeknownst to others.

Zoe also transformed the conference room into a birthday party. Now, she only needed to wait for the tto arrive.

When Peter returned to his seat, he was suddenly given a note. He looked up and saw that it was his colleague who sat opposite him. There was only one simple sentence on it- could you please helpto settle a document? The colleague was a fresh graduate. So there was practically no problem to help her, but she was a girl. If he were to help her, it wouldn't seem very appropriate.

He threw the note into the trash and ignored her.

After a while, Zoe entered the office. Peter instantly stood up and walked to Zoe. "Zoe, are you free this afternoon?" "What's up?" "I'm going to Avery's house. Didn't you say that you wanted to see Olive? Let's go visit her together and help her cup with a new name." "All right." Zoe walked back to her seat from Peter's side.

Peter sat down and thought that after taking Zoe to Avery's house in the afternoon, he could also take her out for dinner. In the evening... He heard that there was a firework show around here, so he wanted to take her to see it and walk around a little bit.

After all, they hadn't had an official date in a long time. He wanted to take stoff work to be with her. After all, their job wasn't that difficult.

If everything went well, they could even get off work earlier than usual.

At 12 pm.

Zoe suddenly stood up and grabbed Peter's arm. Before Peter could react, he had already been dragged away by her. They passed through the long corridor with a lot of doors and cto the conference room.

Peter asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Why did you taketo the conference room all of a sudden? Did Mr. Fuller or Ms. Emerson look for us?" Zoe didn't answer and opened the door. In an instant, balloons and ribbons were dancing in the air.

Charlotte sat on the table, holding her arms comfortably and looking at the was two of them. Shane was standing beside herdike a pine tree. Although he was expressionless, there were a few ribbons on his shoulders, and that made everything look pretty...

Jolly. Peter was stunned for a few seconds and then laughed. "Are you guys cosplaying now?" "Happy birthday, Peter." Charlotte handed a rectangular black box to Peter.

Peter opened the box and found an emerald bamboo lying inside. He was slightly shocked, and for sm unknown reason, his eyes welled. He said with a sob, "Ms. Emerson, Mr. Fuller, how did you know that it was my birthday?" "You'll have to ask Zoe about this," Charlotte said with a smile.

Zoe? Peter looked at the woman next to her in surprise. Zoe would never explain to him. Taking the wrong phone by mistake sounded like an excuse to inspect his phone. So she would never tell anyone.

Zoe ignored him and walked inside.

She opened the box for the takeout and the cake and said "Don'task. I'm Le Sherlock Holmes, alright. That's why I know. Let's have lunch and eat the cake. It would be a waste if we didn't finish all this delicious food." "Zoe, did you investigate me?" Peter walked to her with a silly grin. If he had a tail, it would be wagging madly at this time.

She was so nice.

She was so, so nice.

Even though it was a little strange for him to be investigated...

He couldn't believe that he would be investigated by someone one day. It was even his girlfriend who investigated him.

It was indeed a little weird, but it was also quite sweet.
