Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

After the engagement, Rick stayed to see off the guests while Anne took Charlotte home. He was afraid if they stayed longer something might happen due to the threat. He would feel much better if they were both at home. After the last person left, Rick stared at the empty church hall. He didn't feel as happy as he had imagined. Everyone had witnessed him fulfil his wish and realised his dreams. He shouldn't be in such a low mood. His phone vibrated in his pocket. He quickly collected his thoughts and answered the call.

"Hello?" "It's done," It was Shane.

Rick smiled. "Yes, it's done." Shane was standing in a tall building in the capital of another country. He looked out at the skyscrapers and said, "I mean I'm done with my business. You can have your shares back." "Do I look like someone who makes vain promises?" "True gold fears no flame." What he meant was someone of integrity would not be afraid of any accusation.

Rick looked at the white rose in his hand. He felt Shane was really very interesting.

If Shane did not accept his offer and announced the truth about Sheryl at the ceremony, he would be deemed a hypocrite. So, he had no choice but to accept his situation.

However, if Shane took all of his shares because of this, he would no longer be a man of honour.

So the gentleman thing to do was take the shares and complete his goal, then offer to return Rick the shares.

"I also don't want to be the bad guy. Just think of it as helpingmanage my finances." "Are we that close?" "In the future, I will be taking care of your daughter for you." Shane kept quiet for stbefore saying, "Take good care of them." Rick was about to answer "I will", but Shane had already ended the call. He ended it so quickly it was as if he was afraid of hearing the answer.

Rick was stunned for a moment, then put his phone back in his pocket. He should go home.

A hwhere she's at.

Because of Blake's letter, Charlotte had beca little paranoid.

If Anne wanted to go to the supermarket alone, she had to be followed by bodyguards.

Anne complained relentlessly, "My brother isn't as nervous as you. You're too immersed in your role as my sister- in-law." "I'm worried about you." Charlotte reached out her hand and pinched her waist as she continued, "As your best friend." "Sure, but I just wanted to buy something at the supermarket." Anne picked up a small piece of bread and looked at Charlotte blankly.

Charlotte felt a little awkward. She crossed her arm around Anne's and smiled lightly. "It's all for the sake of your safety." Anne rolled her eyes.

She was about to lecture Charlotte on how they shouldn't be paranoid when receiving such letters. These people were just threatening with words. Besides Rick would take care of it. But Charlotte's phone suddenly rang.

Charlotte let go of Anne and took out her mobile phone. She quickly answered it when she saw it was Rick. "Rick?" "Yes," Rick answered. "Where are you and Anne?" "I told the butler Anne was going to the market so I asked sbodyguards to calong with us." Rick, who was on the other end, breathed a sigh of relief and said tiredly, "Cback soon." "You sound very tired..." Charlotte was worried.

"Yes, I'll take a nap first." Rick ended the call directly.

Rick sounded a little cold. Was he tired because of the wedding ceremony? Charlotte didn't quite understand him.

Anne, who was next to her, asked weirdly, "Why do you still callbrother Rick? Shouldn't you be calling him hubby?" Hubby? Charlotte was startled by this word. She blurted, "Nonsense." "You're already married. Isn't it normal for you to address each other more intimately?" Charlotte was stunned.

They got married.

Yes, she was already married to him.

She raised her hand to rub her temples and said, "I'm sorry, I overreacted." Anne was not dumb. She could see that there was something wrong with Charlotte. She also heard Rick's intentional coldness in his tone.

Today should be a happy day... but the both of them didn't seem too happy.

Anne didn't have the energy to argue with Charlotte. She quickly bought her food and went home.

After returning home.

Charlotte went into Sheryl's room. Anne hesitated for a moment. She wanted to ask Rick about it so she asked the housekeeper if Rick was in his room. The maid shook her head. "No miss, sir is in little miss's room." She was referring to Sheryl by little miss.

Which meant, when Charlotte went into Sheryl's room, Rick was also there? That's good. They can talk it out by themselves.

Anne returned to her room in a good mood.

On the other side.

As soon as Charlotte pushed open the door, she noticed Sheryl sitting on Rick's lap with a toy in her hand. She cheekily made a face at him.

"What are you guys playing?" Charlotte walked over.

"We're not playing. Daddy said he wanted to taketo the kindergarten. He didn't want to bring mommy," Sheryl said happily.

"Why don't you bringalong?" "Because you're going to a meeting at the Airline Union route but that day is on a weekend so I don't need to work." Jane Corporation and NC Company's working hours were on weekdays. The off-days were from Friday 5.30 p.m to Monday 11 a.m. Strictly counting, they had a three day holiday.

They were not a dotcompany who had a top-level online system, so most of the tthey didn't even advertise their product.

The less important a department was, the less they needed to worry about it.

However, at Rick and Charlotte's position, off-days on Saturdays and Sundays are nonexistent. Most of the teven if they had their own time, жетх they were required to engage in social activities. So, it was true that it was an off-day but for Rick... Charlotte suspiciously looked at him, "Haven't you been very busy recently?"

Rick smiled and shook his head. He put a finger on his lips and made a her to not "shush" sound, hinting at expose him. Then he explained, "Princess, it just happens I'm not busy this week." "Really?" Sheryl looked back and forth. Charlotte had no choice but to play along with him. "He's the most powerful in the company, he can do anything." Sheryl finally smiled.

Rick chatted with Sheryl for a while, then left the room with Lottie.

On the way to the living room, Charlotte couldn't help but ask, "Why did you promise to bring Sheryl out? Didn't the company just receive a big project? The one with Mr. Luke." "I need to take stoff for the kid." Rick smiled at her. "Don't worry, I can balance well between my career and family." Family.

Charlotte sighed.

"Next time, don't talk about work or stress. She h mention how busy I am in front of Sheryl. I'm worried she will feel m stress. She had always been more sensitive than other people," Rick explained. "I've turned her into an overly sensible child." "You had no choice. But now, you have me." Charlotte was very touched. She gently nodded, "Thank you, Rick." "I'm going to take a nap." Rick stopped at the stairs and pointed towards the dining room. "You go have something to eat. Wakeup when it's dinnertime." "Alright." As Rick left, Charlotte felt an ache in her heart.

She felt sorry for him.

He didn't need to do all these if he hadn't married her...

Charlotte sat down in the living room and took out the laptop. She turned it on and logged on to the email. She was instantly bombarded with 999+ notifications which made her overwhelmed. What happened? She frowned and clicked on one of the emails.

Her screen was filled with vulgar and degrading words. They were all signed off by the sperson.
