NovelEnglishEarly in the morning, at seven a.m.
Charlotte's alarm clock screamed dutifully, waking her from her sleep.
She glanced at Anne, who was still fast asleep beside her, then stealthily climbed out of bed.
After washing up, she stood in front of her wardrobe and ultimately decided to wear a white V-neck dress.
Not only did it bestow her unforced grace and elegance, but the design of the V-shaped collar also made her neck look longer while highlighting her prominent collarbones.
She was never a huge fan of heavy makeup, so she simply patted on a touch of eyeshadow and blush. In an instant, her delicate features were amplified, especially those soft, sexy lips she had applied a thin layer of gloss to.
She stared at the woman in the mirror in awe.
Soon, she turned up at Fuller Group's office building, alluring and sophisticated as before.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCole stood by the main doors in anticipation of her arrival. Once he greeted her, he escorted her up to the 66th floor.
As someone who was welcomed by Cole himself, she naturally drew the attention of many.
Charlotte kept a charming smile plastered upon her face and shut out the groundless speculations as she strode into Shane's office under Cole's lead.
"Miss Charlotte, Mr. Fuller is in a meeting; please take a seat as you wait." Cole turned to leave after handing her a glass of water.
Now that she was left alone, she spun around and sized up the spacious office. Occasionally, indistinct voices could be heard flowing in from the conference room nearby. Charlotte's heart gradually sank.
She was well aware that her appearance by Shane's side following the episode with Yuliana would stir up a huge commotion.
Perhaps, she would soon face the sfate as Yuliana and find herself enveloped by a sea of reporters trying to uncover her dirty tactics to gain Shane's favour.
To top it all, they might even disclose the fact that she had a child born out of wedlock.
By then, Sheryl would also be involved.
Was she truly capable of bearing the consequences of such a rash act? For a split second, Charlotte was once again plunged into a state of indecision. Her fingers dug into her palms as her mind began to waver.
In the conference room sat a lone man.
Cole pushed open the door and walked in. "Sir, Miss Charlotte is here." Hearing this, Shane nodded in acknowledgment. All was well within his expectations - Charlotte would never let slide an opportunity to return to Emerson Corp.
He glanced at his wristwatch and shut his eyes.
Seeing this, Cole tactfully retreated and closed the door behind himself.
Charlotte counted the minutes that passed by. It had exceeded half an hour already.
Just then, Shane finally appeared. As he stepped into the room, his distant gaze gently swept past Charlotte.
Every bit of the tension on her was perceived by his sharp eyes.
"Charlotte, have you made up your mind?" Shane strode over and sat himself down across from her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe elegantly undid the button at his collar, exposing his erotic neck. His legs were leisurely crossed one on top of the other and he leaned idly into the sofa like a lazy cat.
His eyelids drooped slightly and he emanated a villainous air.
Charlotte had never seen this side of Shane before and, as a result, her lips parted slightly in astonishment. Once she realized that she had lost her composure, her face flushed red with embarrassment. She promptly turned away for a couple of deep breaths before looking back at Shane again. T ve made up my mind" Charlotte nodded firmly.
Hearing this, Shane smirked. "Are you not afraid of the trouble that would ensue if you were to becmy woman?" Charlotte's teeth dug into her lower lip subconsciously. To say she was not afraid would be a blatant lie.
In today's society, the domain of information you would be able to find on the intewas simply extensive. In fact, she had no doubts that if someone were to try, everything about her could effortlessly be exposed within minutes.
A brief moment of thought later, Charlotte broke out into a smile and a sly glimmer flitted across her eyes. "Now that I'm the daughter-in-law of the Fuller family, would they sit back and watchfend for myself?" Shane let out a short, melodious chuckle but offered no response.
Charlotte inhaled sharply and mentally practiced her script one last time.
All of a sudden, she leaned forward onto the coffee table and revealed her cleavage. Her voice turned as smooth as silk as she cooed, "Shane, you won't ignore me, will you?" X
