Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Upon hearing the word 'daughter1, Charlotte's body trembled slightly, and she was so angry she nearly lost her mind.

She wanted desperately to pounce on Elaine and tear her throat out, to make her shut her mouth.

Shane looked down and glanced at the woman in his arms. He handed her to Cole and said, "Bring her to Zoe." "Yes, sir." "Miss Yuliana, about the cooperation between the Emerson Corporation and the NC Company, I think it's necessary for us to have a chat." Shane's face darkened. "As you wish." Elaine smiled, her palms full of sweat. Shane strode towards the seat in the corner, and Elaine immediately followed him.

Damn it.

If she had known that Shane would arrive so soon, she wouldn't have bothered that b*tch.

Next time, she had to be more careful.

Charlotte approached Zoe, her heart still beating violently.

Just now, in order to protect this dress sent by Shane, she even considered putting down her dignity. Was it just for the dress, or was it for the one who sent the dress... Charlotte absentmindedly touched the hem of her skirt.

At the stime, Zoe had finished socializing. Looking at Charlotte's dark expression, she suggested, "Shall we sit down by the side?" Charlotte nodded.

When they sat down, Zoe said with a smile after knowing about the incident, "With your relationship with Mr Fuller, isn't it normal for you to take good care of the dress he gave you?" If they were a real couple, it would be normal. But their relationship was clearly contractual.

For sreason, Charlotte's fingers tightened. She couldn't explain the complicated, troubling feeling she felt for him.

During their conversation, the host on stage began to announce the top ten nominees for the best newcomer award. He had also invited the first and second-placed nominees on stage to receive their gifts from the company.

Charlotte was ranked third, and Zoe fourth, a slightly awkward position. Being benefactors as well, no awards were given out to them.

But who would have expected that? The host called for the third and fourth-ranked nominees to go on stage as well.

And then he announced the reward for the third and fourth-placed winners- The third one was to share a dance with the chairman, and the fourth with Christopher.

Charlotte and Zoe froze like two sculptures. No one had told them about this beforehand.

Until the spotlights shone directly on them.

"Do you dare to refuse the invitation of Mr Gibson and Mr Fuller?" Zoe looked at Charlotte emotionlessly.

She was expressionless, but in her heart, she was complaining endlessly about the stage planning internally. "No, I don't." too." They looked at each other and sighed. They had no choice but to go on stage.

Shane was wearing a long tuxedo, his figure tall, his eyes chilly. He no longer had the sternness he usually did, which made him look like a fairy who did not belong to the mortal world. Standing next to him was Christopher in a simple but luxurious white suit, with a faint smile on his face, which made him look like an angel.

The staff screamed.

With such a chairman, not to mention working twelve hours six days a week, even if they were to work 24/7, they would still be willing to work until they died! Charlotte was very nervous. She kept taking deep breaths while standing on the stage.

Under the spotlight, Shane leaned over and held out his hand. The moment Charlotte held his hand, she was swept into his arms and they danced along to the music.

It was so embarrassing to dance while staring at each other.

Charlotte tilted her head slightly. "What did you say to Elaine just now? I didn't cause you any trouble, did I?" "No, you didn't." "That's great." "I just suspended the cooperation with the Emerson Corporation." Charlotte turned her head suddenly and looked at him in shock, almost forgetting to move.

If Shane hadn't stopped just then and switched positions flawlessly, she would have embarrassed herself in front of hundreds of people.

However, Charlotte wasn't able to care about protecting her image anymore at such a time.

"You stopped the cooperation with the Emerson Cooperation because of me..." "It's not because of you. We haven't been getting along well with each other. Recently, many companies have also ended their cooperations with the Emerson Corporation because of Elaine's promotion." "So that was the reason." Charlotte let out a sigh of relief.

It's fine as long as it was not because of her.

In Shane's eyes, however, her expression seemed dejected.

The corners of his lips quirked up. "Are you disappointed because it wasn't due to you?" "I'm not that childish. Don't worry, I'm an understanding wife." She emphasized the word "wife" deliberately. Interesting.

Shane was pleased by her words and did not speak again, and instead focused on enjoying the moment.

As the dance ended.

Charlotte and Zoe walked down the stage in front of everyone.

She vaguely heard someone saying- "Ah, what a pity. We didn't get to see Mr Fuller playing the piano today again." "Don't think about it. He hasn't played it since he was fifteen." "I know. That's why I feel it's a pity. He was a piano prodigy back then." Shane playing the piano? It was hard for Charlotte to picture such a scene.

Although he did seem like someone who played the piano.

After the celebratory feast.

Charlotte wanted to take a cab home, but Cole brought her to the underground parking lot. She was forced to go back with Shane in the scar. "Aren't you going back to the old mansion?" "When you get off work tomorrow, we'll go back together." Charlotte wanted to bite her own tongue for being talkative.

Looking at her pained look, Shane added, "Grandma wants to see you." Madam Fuller Senior.

"I see. Today Sheryl's..." "She's at the old mansion." Sigh.

Charlotte did not hate Madam Fuller Senior. Although she had only met the old lady once, she was very kind. The person she wanted to avoid was Shane's mother-Raina.

The next day.

Because they had to return to the old estate.

Charlotte had not been in a good state for the entire day. Fortunately, there was not much work she needed to do.

As soon as she got off work, Cole went to the office to pick Charlotte up.

Charlotte approached the side of the car and opened the door.

Shane was sitting in the backseat. He was wearing a Bluetooth headset, and his slender, pale fingers danced across the keyboard.

She couldn't help but feel stunned.

If this beautiful pair of hands were to play the piano, it would be a sight to see.

"What are you looking at? Get in." Shane's gaze fell on her and he nodded slightly, seemingly satisfied with her outfit today.

Charlotte got into the car without a word.

Shane didn't pay any attention to her and continued to deal with his work.

Soon, the car stopped in front of the old mansion.

The old butler had been waiting for a long time.

When he saw Charlotte, he smiled welcoming her. "The young master and young madam are both here! Madam Senior Fuller will be very happy." Charlotte smiled and nodded at him. Shane grabbed her wrist and pulled her into the house. She was going to meet Raina.

Her palms were full of sweat.

Just as she was feeling nervous, she heard a soft voice- "Mommy!" A cute little girl ran up to her.

Charlotte's heart melted. Not caring about anything else, she immediately crouched down and hugged her daughter, "Sheryl, did you miss mommy?" "Yes! I miss mommy! Of course, I miss daddy too." Sheryl said and sent an air kiss to Shane.

Shane rustled her hair affectionately.

Sheryl giggled, grabbed hold of Charlotte's hand and led her towards the stairs. "Greatgrandma, mommy and daddy are here." Charlotte raised her head subconsciously.

Madam Fuller Senior was wearing an the stairs. Though showed was's emerald dress as she walked down her pace was steady, which showed that her body was healthy. She had the spirit of a ruler, but there was a soft, warm gleam in her eyes.

Charlotte quickly supported the old granny. "Good afternoon, gra... Madam Fuller Senior." "Sheryl, your mother's speech is not as sweet as yours." "Which means, mommy, you forgot again that you should be calling great-grandma grandma," Sheryl corrected her in a childish tone.

Charlotte froze for a moment. She lowered her head in embarrassment and said, "Grandma."

"Good. Such a good girl." She then looked at Shane who was still m downstairs, "Shane, why are you still standing there? Aren't you coming to greet me?" Shane stood where he was, unmoving. "Grandma, I remember you saying, you haven't reached the age where you need help walking." Like RICH WOMEN? These women desperately want a mature men!
