It was a little late when Shane returned to the country, but Charlotte still asked Rick whether he wanted to meet up. Rick directly asked her for the address and said that he would arrive in half an hour. Charlotte put down her phone and walked to the open kitchen. She placed her coffee cup in the coffee machine and pressed the button. The entire room was filled with the fragrance of coffee beans. After she made her coffee, she walked into the living room. Shane was wearing a casual robe as he leaned against the back of the sofa, looking a little lazy.

She placed the cup of coffee by his hand and said, "You're already so tired, why did you askto ask Rick if he wants to come?" "Isn't it better to settle things earlier?" "But, you look very tired..." Charlotte absentmindedly reached out her hand and touched the space between his eyebrows. She used her fingertip to outline the shape of his eyebrows.

Shane stared at her soulfully, but he didn't stop her. He watched as her fingers slid all the way down and finally stop on his chin. Only then did he tremble as if he had just woken from a dream. She stopped hurriedly and retracted her hand. Shane covered her hand with his.

Their eyes met.

Charlotte didn't dare to blink, nor did she dare to look at him. She closed her eyes in fear, but it looked as if she was looking for a kiss.

Shane leaned over and kissed her on the lips. He let go of her hand and grabbed her waist. "If the Jane Corporation leaves the Asia Pacific region, it will only be good for us." "So, you are helping him to get to know his plans better?" "From what I know of Rick, he would liquidate his Asia Pacific region company and leave the country soon after our press conference." This time, Charlotte did not ask why.

She knew that Rick had deep feelings for her. In her heart, she thought he really wouldn't keep Kendall by his side, even after he helped protect Kendall. But, in actuality, he had done it. The light in Charlotte's eyes gradually dimmed.

"The man behind this schis not so simple," Shane said.

"Could it be Christopher?" "He might not be so shrewd." "In my opinion, they're all good people. Whether by my side or by yours, they're all..." Charlotte didn't know what to say.

It was like they had suddenly found out that someone was a murderer. The person had always done good things and was a charitable person. But the reason they had killed was very simple - they just wanted to.

Wasn't that ridiculous? In her heart, she felt that Christopher and Rick's actions were just as ridiculous as this concept. "Good people don't make mistakes?" Shane asked back.

"Um..." "You didn't get along well with my mother before. Don't you care for her now?" "That's because I've always thought that she was a good person. She is just a bit stubborn." Really? If she knew that Raina had once hurt Sheryl, would she still think that way? Shane felt that Charlotte thought too much in black and white. Good was good and bad was bad. She was too naive.

At that moment, someone knocked on the door.

Charlotte left Shane's embrace, straightened her clothes, and went to open the door.

Rick stood outside the opened door. He raised his head and smiled at her. "Lottie." Charlotte silently took a step back. She pulled the door fully open to make it easier for him to walk inside. "The slippers are on the shoe rack. You can take them yourself." As she spoke, she walked back to Shane and sat down beside him.

Rick changed his shoes and looked around the room.

The style of design was not forbidding, but it was a style that was more trendy a few years ago, which meant that Shane had bought this house a few years ago. It was not the house he bought with Charlotte. Rick walked inside and went to the living room after passing the open kitchen and the connected dining room. The aroma of coffee and dessert tempted his taste buds.

He sat down and took out a thick stack of paper from a folder. "These are the people I'm sure are with me. None of them hired an assassin. None of them had suspicious movements in their accounts. Of course, the movements in my accounts are also recorded in detail here." "Mr. Jane, you are so generous." Shane didn't move to study it. That Rick would bring it over for him to see indicated that he was confident in these documents.

Rick said with a wry smile, "Since I asked you for help, I have to show ssincerity too. I know that you have been holding a grudge against Joe. Back then, he kidnapped you and killed many people. With the Fuller family and Stevens family's influence, he still escaped the law. Now he's back again. You..." "I can help you, but I have a request." "You can ask directly." "Kendall, I want her to be in jail." There was a dead silence.

Charlotte didn't expect Shane to say that, and she turned her head to look at him in disbelief.

She knew that, for Shane, Heidi was part of a painful past. She was not to be mentioned, like Pandora's magic box, while Joe was the key to this Pandora's box.

"Are you here for Sheryl, Mr. Fuller?" Rick asked.

"She is my daughter. If she can't get justice and the people who hurt her can't be punished, I won't cooperate with you." Rick was silent for a long tbefore he finally nodded. "This is why I didn't interfere. That day was an accident. When I made my decision, I was still muddled. I am not defending myself, I just want to say that I am very regretful." He didn't know why he had hurt Sheryl and Charlotte, but at this point, even if Shane hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have been able to think of a way to make things fair.

Even if it offended the Stevens family.

"The second thing, why are you still in the country?" Shane's question was much sharper than the previous one. Rick picked up the coffee that Charlotte brought him and drank it in one gulp. Then he smiled and said, "Since I'm here, how can I go back empty-handed? I've been living a comfortable life abroad for a long time. I want to cout and experience a challenge. Even if I don't have a chance to get a piece of the domestic pie, I won't give up on other countries." Shane nodded. "It's nice working with you." "Mr. Fuller, there is one thing you may not know. I have a very good relationship with Mielle. She helpeddeal with sthings abroad. I am very grateful to her." "So?" "I don't have enough connections in the country. I want to choose a better graveyard for her." Rick looked at Shane sincerely and said, "Mr. Fuller, I don't dare to trust other people, who might be enemies or friends. But you are the only one I can trust, even if you are an enemy." Shane turned to look at Charlotte.

Whether to help Rick or not, it was fine.

However, if Charlotte said that she wanted to help Rick, then no matter what, he would help.

"You, why are you looking at me? I don't have any connections in this area." Even Charlotte was stunned.

Shane didn't reply and just looked at her.

A few seconds later, Charlotte finally cto her senses. Shane wasm silently asking her if she wanted to help Rick. He had passed a very tricky problem directly to her. Charlotte looked at Rick and then at Shane. She could only repeat herself, "I don't have any connections in this area..." The first time, she really hadn't reacted in time. The second time, she did it on purpose.

"Sorry, I approached you too suddenly." Rick lowered his head, feeling slightly bitter in his heart.

"I can help you." Rick did not expect that there was still a turning point in this matter. He immediately looked up at him and asked, "Mr. Fuller?"

Shane glanced at Charlotte. She covered her face with her hands and said in a soft voice, X really don't have any. I don't want to get involved in your business." "But I have a question. Why are you leaving Mielle in the country?" Charlotte asked again.

Shane wasn't interested in this question, but it didn't stop him from listening to Rick's answer: family's swer. This is our You must be buried in the place where you died," Rick replied. This custom...

Although Charlotte couldn't understand, she could accept it.

"Oh, I see," she replied awkwardly.

It was so embarrassing.
