PopularNovelShane remained silent, but the teasing smile on his face only widened. The amusement reached his eyes and raised his eyebrow imperceptibly. Eliciting no response from Shane, Charlotte chuckled awkwardly and said, "Mr. Fuller, please don't take this so seriously. I meant it as a joke." She picked herself off the table and smoothed down the front of her dress with her hands. She could feel herself burn up with embarrassment, so much that she wished she could just bang her head against the wall and die.
Who did she think Shane was? He had probably feasted his eyes upon every kind of beauty there existed in the world. Why did she think she could charm him with her appearance? Seeing the changes on Charlotte' s face, Shane's lips parted in a grin, revealing a neat row of pearly whites. "It seems that Miss Charlotte has really thought this through." Cole stepped forward from where he was standing and placed two brand-new sets of contracts in front of Charlotte.
Shane chivalrously produced the Parker steel pen he always carried with him from the pocket of his coat and handed it to her.
She took the pen and promptly signed her non both contracts.

She was dumbfounded and her hand froze, suspending the pen midair.

Rather belatedly, it dawned on Charlotte that he was just pulling her leg. Almost immediately, her cheeks turned a rosy red.
Once Shane was done signing the contracts, Cole put the paperwork aside.
Shane looked down at his watch, then stood up and fixed his collar.
His gaze drifted to Charlotte and he asked, "Did you bring your household registry?" Charlotte looked up at Shane with confusion. Why would she bring her household registry? Shane saw right through her doubts and merely ordered, "We still have stto spare; let's go." Charlotte didn't dare ask where they were going. She could only obediently follow Shane into the car.
As they pulled up at the entrance of Flowerbed Residence, she finally realized what Shane meant by the household registry.
Wasn't this just a fake marriage? She thought having signed a contract would suffice.
But again, she didn't dare voice her thoughts. Meeting Shane's dominating eyes, she got out of the car and went to retrieve her household registry.
