Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Late at night, the most popular bar in River City was closed.

Bang- A bottle of wine smashed against the wall.

Braden flinched and poked Christopher, who was standing beside him. "Go persuade him." "Why?" "No matter how I look at it, he's not mad because of Raymond Fuller! It must be because of Charlotte. I heard Rick has announced his engagement with her. It'll be on the first of next month." Bang- A wine bottle shattered next to Braden.

"Ahh, do you want to scareto death?" Braden asked in shock. "If you're mad, you can vent all you want but don't take it out on me! How could you bear to ruin my handsface?" Another wine bottle broke at his feet.

Braden was so angry, he stamped his feet. "Can't you hear me? If you can bully me, you can also go see her!" 'See her?' he thought.

Shane's eyes turned cold and he put down the bottle in his hand.

Braden gathered his courage and walked forward. He stopped beside him and said, "I heard from Christopher that this wedding was a trap for Raymond. You weren't getting married at all. I thought you'd explain this to Charlotte." "Explain? Why should I explain anything to her?" Shane's attitude was very tough and cold.

"Didn't you always say she's your woman?" Braden smiled ingratiatingly. "Then isn't it normal to tell your woman that you don't want to marry anyone else?" Braden couldn't see through his thoughts so he could only urge Shane to make a phone call to Charlotte.

After a while, Shane suddenly got up and walked away. "Don't follow me." Braden stopped in his tracks and hunched down on the ground frustratedly. He turned and vented his anger towards Christopher, "It's all your fault!" Christopher shrugged with a smile. "What does this have to do with me?" "He wouldn't have sold that land if it weren't for you. I've always thought of you as a brother. I... Forget it, I'm not interested in your games." Braden suddenly stood up and continued, "You two can play on your own." Christopher watched as Braden left. He pushed his glasses with a slight smile on his lips.

Although there was a slight deviation in plans, he would only benefit from Shane and Charlotte's breakup.

It would be best for them to go separate ways.

A few days after the wedding, the NC company announced that Tiffany would go abroad to shoot a music video.

Immediately, countless rumors began to spread.

Speople said that Shane was only using Tiffany.

Others said Shane was a gentleman as he was protecting Tiffany.

In short, there were different opinions from the public. The stock price for the NC company also rose a lot.

Charlotte was eating lunch when she heard people around gossip about it. Ever since she agreed to Rick's proposal, she had stopped paying attention to Shane's life.

After lunch, she returned to her office to see Avery waiting for her.

He flipped his glossy hair as he laid on her desk with a coquettish look. "I heard someone say you're marrying Rick?" "Yes," she replied.

"You stopped going after Shane?" "What? Since when have I gone after him?" She pursed and fiddled with her bracelet subconsciously.

In the past two days, she had been playing with her bracelet more frequently than before.

It served as a reminder to herself that she was going to marry Rick.

Avery smiled and said, "It's obvious when you love someone. As for you, you don't love Rick at all. I can see it." "That doesn't mean I won't love him in the future." "If you were to fall in love with him, it would've already happened." "Those who fall in love early might not make it to the end. Love isn't everything." Charlotte sat down and took out sdocuments. "Let's talk about the airline. Aren't you here for the Union Airline? Then, stop talking about Shane." "Didn't I tell you? Shane is also a member of the Union Airline. He offered even more money than Rick." Charlotte sighed.

She finally understood the reason why Rick was in a hurry to marry her.

As long as she stayed in the city, she would definitely run into Shane. If she married Rick, there would be boundaries and Shane would have to restrain himself.

"Knock! Knock! Knock!" Charlotte cback to her senses and looked over. Rick put a box of fruits on the table. "The assistant just bought it. It's very fresh. You can eat it." "What about you?" "Of course I have one too." Avery looked up at Rick with his red lips slightly curved. "I heard that you are getting married?" Rick nodded and said, "The engagement party is next month. I hope you can come." "Can I bring a family member? Oh, don't getwrong. I mean my sister. Her nis Heather. She doesn't have much tto live, you know," Avery explained as he stood up. Then, he stood beside Rick and said ruefully, "I'm shorter than you." The smell of Avery's perfwas very strong.

Rick smiled calmly. "I know. I will take good care of her if she comes." "Thank you very much." Rick didn't stay for long.

Charlotte looked at the fruits. She propped up her head and touched the plastic lid.

Avery watched Rick leave before sitting down again. He reached out a hand and waved it in front of Charlotte. "That man is quite scheming." "Are you trying to be my best friend?" Charlotte asked helplessly.

"We are, aren't we?" "... You are a man." "Really? Thanks for reminding me. May I remind you that I'm also a little interested in man? Maybe I might even become... the test of true love between you and Rick." Avery smiled and blinked his long lashes. His red lips curled into a confident smile.

The seductive look in his eyes caused even Charlotte to blush uncontrollably.

Now she finally believed those foxy men in those fantasy really existed.

Avery was likely one of those foxy men straight out of those stories.

However, he was charming enough so he wasn't repulsive.

Charlotte shifted her gaze and ruthlessly complained, "I really hope that you are his true love." Avery just smiled.

Love, he stopped having expectation since long ago.

Otherwise, he would not turn himself into the person he was right now. It was true he wanted to be a woman but it was also true he used this as an excuse to escape marriage. She had been collaborating with Avery for about five or six days.

Only then did Charlotte understand everything regarding the airline. Avery's intention was to advise her to gain sknowledge at university. Otherwise, she would only get worn out. Of course, Charlotte understood this. She had already done so when she returned to the country earlier. But what happened...

She really didn't want to go back.

Avery thought she couldn't find a good teacher so he directly took this matter into his own hands. She couldn't stop him so she could only watch him search for someone.

e She had been too busy dealing with the Jane family's business. Besides, she also had to learn International Economics which made her too busy to do anything. Needless to say, she had no tto take care of her daughter. On this day.

Sheryl held a phone in her left hand and a small purse in her right. She stood all alone before the NC company's building.

Braden, who once again had a fight with Christopher and Shane, went out in a huff. Suddenly, he stopped with his eyes opened wide.

"Sheryl?" "Mr. Rude..." The little fellow looked at him sadly.

This...

Braden bit his lip and picked up the little fellow.

'Forget it, forget it. Just think of it as paying back Shane a favour,' he thought.

He held the little girl in his arms and went all the way back.

"Hello, Shane, your daughter is looking for you," Braden shouted at the door.

Christopher heard his voice and glanced towards him. He was stunned when he saw Sheryl. "Did she just chere alone?" Braden just thought of this question. He couldn't help but swear.

Sheryl nodded obediently and said, "I chere alone. I missed daddy." "Your daughter is quite exceptional," Christopher spoke from the bottom of his heart.

She was only six years old.

X Shane's face immediately turned cold. "Bang!" He slammed the pen on the table and strode towards her.

Sheryl reached out her hand and called, "Daddy." "Where's your mother?" Shane held Sheryl in his arms and asked in a hostile tone.

That woman actually allowed Sheryl to run away from halone?
