Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Charlotte glanced warily at Avery. Between Avery and Peter, she still thought more highly of Peter. There was no other reason beyond the fact that Peter was more reliable. Avery... could not be said to be unreliable. The main point was that he had a girlfriend that he couldn't get over.

She did not want Zoe to becIrena's substitute.

But, in this situation, she couldn't leave Zoe alone. The best plan was...

A thought cto Charlotte's mind. "Zoe, I'm with Avery now, and we're going to have dinner. I'll ask Peter to pick you up. Cand have dinner with us, okay?" "Alright. I'm sorry to trouble you, Peter, and Avery." Zoe was in a weak position now, so she had no tto think about these details.

"Sendyour location." Soon, Zoe sent the address, and Charlotte immediately sent it to Peter.

Peter was very happy to pick up Zoe, so he set aside his current tasks and rushed to pick her up.

"Hey now. I've done so much to help you and here you're helping that punk Peter. That's not very nice of you." Avery pulled at Charlotte's jacket in displeasure, looking as if he wouldn't let her go unless she explained herself. "You still hold a torch for your ex. I'm not handing my friend to you." Charlotte pulled her clothes away from Avery. "Peter likes Zoe. Who do you like?" Avery shrugged. "How do you know that I won't fall in love with Zoe?" "Please, Avery. Anyone can tell that, if you had the chance, you would avenge your beloved Irena and die in peace." Charlotte rolled her eyes.

Avery laughed.

He really couldn't refute it.

Moreover, Charlotte's words were very reasonable. He was such a person. He could give up everything for Irena, even if he really ended up liking Zoe, who looked almost the sas Irena... Even if Zoe was so much like Irena, he would still choose Irena.

Zoe was a living person while Irena was already dead. Whether it was Zoe or Irena, it seemed unfair to both of them.

Half an hour later, Charlotte and Avery arrived at the restaurant.

Just as Avery thought, they really needed to queue up. But fortunately, there were only a few other parties in front of them, and it was soon their turn.

Hot pot was particularly popular in River City in the past two years. All the famous hot pot restaurants were filled to the brim with diners.

They were lucky to get a table.

Charlotte took the menu, picked a few dishes she liked, and passed it to Avery. "Take a look and see what you want." "When will they cover?" Avery took the menu.

"Avery said they'll arrive in ten minutes," Charlotte replied absent-mindedly.

Avery was stunned when he heard this. Then he raised his head and stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers in front of her. "Lottie, I am Avery. Peter is the one who went to pick up Zoe. What's wrong with you?" "I meant Peter." "I don't care if you're thinking ofor Peter. I just want to know what you're thinking about" Avery put the menu aside.

"I was just thinking, do you think that the people sent by the Stevens family to pick up Kendall will be Ryland and Caleb?" Charlotte asked.

Avery's lips curled up and he smiled charmingly.

However, his eyes were cold. "If so, I will make them regret coming back to River City." "Now we still don't know much about the Stevens family. We can only sit and wait for news." Avery nodded, "I think it's really funny. You only have to deal with Kendall. I'm the one who should be worried about the entire Stevens family. What are you worrying about? I really think that you're a really strange woman." "What's so strange? If I wanted to mess with Kendall, the Stevens family wouldn't let me. So, no matter what, I still have to deal with the Stevens family." Charlotte's logic was sound.

"But you still haven't done anything to Kendall yet." "Who said that?" Avery thought about the trial and the bug and raised his eyebrows. It was true that she had already begun to take action. However, her methods were fairly conservative.

Soon.

Peter arrived with Zoe.

When the two of them sat down, the soup was already boiling and quite a few dishes had been served. Charlotte handed over the menu to the two of them and asked them to choose more dishes. Peter received the menu and was very gentle in sharing it with Zoe. He would ask her about anything Zoe seemed to be interested in.

Zoe was a little absent-minded. She was in a bad state of mind. She only answered when someone else asked her something. She did not speak otherwise.

Charlotte placed a plate of meat into the pot. The bubbling red soup quickly settled down.

"Does your grandmother have a will?" Charlotte looked at Zoe.

"No, she only said verbally that the house is mine. I have always been living in it." Zoe smiled bitterly. This was a really troublesmatter.

Charlotte nodded, "Then that's much simpler." It was much simpler? Zoe looked at her confusedly. "Lottie, I know you and Mr. Fuller are powerful, but if there is a will, I can inherit the house directly without starting a lawsuit. It's because there is no will that there are so many problems now." "What I mean is, if there is a will and you need to fight a lawsuit, it would be too time-consuming. Right now, all I need to do is buy the house." "Ms. Emerson, you're so amazing." Peter lifted his filled cup and toasted her. "Cheers." Charlotte smiled as she clinked glasses with him.

Zoe shook her head. "I thought so too, but I don't have that much money. Even though the house is small, but..." "Zoe, didn't you hear her? Ms. Emerson is right. Ms. Emerson will buy the house for you." Peter interrupted her impatiently.

Zoe was stunned.

Charlotte smiled at Peter and nodded approvingly, "Not bad, you caught my meaning." "Buy the house for me..." Zoe was speechless for a moment and did not know what to say.

What a joke.

Even if the house was not big, but with the property market in River City being what it was, it would cost at least several million dollars.

"However, I have a request." Charlotte raised one of her fingers. "First, you must break off your relationship With your parents. Whether it's on paper or just in action. Then, no matter what I do to them, you are not allowed to ask about it. What do you think?" "I see. You want to use Zoe's parents as practice, don't you? That's good. Even if they find out, they aren't powerful enough to do anything about it," Avery said at this time.

Peter's gaze fell on Avery. The two of them met each other's eyes and smiled at each other. However, this smile was mixed with a hint of alertness and caution that only the and caution other could understand. Charlotte didn't care about the two of them. She picked up the chopsticks and began to pick up the meat in the boiling pot. "That's what I'm thinking, but it depends on whether Zoe is willing or not. If she is unwilling, or if she wants to handle it herself, I will lack someone to practice on. I'll lose out on sentertainment too." "I'm grateful that you are willing to help me, but is that all you want? Lottie, I have always regarded you as a friend, I don't want to take advantage of you." "Zoe, regardless of whether I was at NC Company or the Jane Corporation, my monthly salary was never above 300,000 dollars. But now that I have my own company, I have more than a million dollars going in and out every day." Charlotte sighed.

Perhaps, in the eyes of others, this was a kind of way to show off wealth. However, the people at the table knew more or less what Charlotte had experienced.

Although she had not gone through people had any pitiful life story, her efforts and luck were genuine. So luck, but they were not as hardworking as her. Speople were hard-working, but lacked luck. For Charlotte to be able to reach this point required a lot. It wasn't so easy for just anyone to get there. And the people sitting at this table were all involved in helping her get where she was.

"Ms. Emerson can certainly afford to buy a house." Avery pushed his glasses and said, "Zoe, you know that. You're more worried about how you're going to return the favor, right?" X Like RICH WOMEN? These women desperately want a mature men! JOIN NOW *Waming* these rich women will persue you.
