Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Charlotte arrived at the pre-arranged place in advance and sorted out all the documents. She ordered coffee and food according to the TNT's chairman and Shane's preferences, told them to warm the food up and serve after they had arrived.

Ten minutes later.

Shane and Cole entered the cafe first.

Charlotte stood up and extended her hand politely with a smile on the corner of her lips. "Mr Fuller, I've heard a lot about you." "Heard a lot about me?" Shane raised an eyebrow and held her hand, pulling her forward. "Has Mrs Jane only heard a lot about me?" His breath was clean yet captivating.

Although his face showed no desire, his breath was particularly enchanting.

Charlotte gulped and her entire body tensed up.

"This is a public place. If someone takes photos of us, it will do no good to us at all," she whispered and kept struggling.

"Do you think I care about my reputation?" "I care about mine." She met his dark and cold gaze.

Shane let go of her and sat down with a sullen face. Charlotte took a deep breath and asked the waiter to serve Shane's meal first.

Shane always ate slowly. He was as elegant as an artist carving a sculpture. Charlotte tried to convince herself not to, but her gaze couldn't help but fall on him. Another ten minutes passed.

When the chairman of TNT arrived, Charlotte got up again and greeted him before asking the waiter to serve the second meal in a polite manner.

"I didn't expect Mr Jane's CEO to be so sharp. You even know what I like." After looking at the food on the table, the chairman of TNT had a good impression of Charlotte.

"It was Mr. Jane who toldto learn about your preferences in advance." "Oh? It's the first tI've heard such a straightforward answer." "It's better to be straightforward. Otherwise, I'll feel guilty for wasting your time." The chairman of TNT smiled and took a sip of coffee. Then he looked at Shane and said, "Shane, if I remember correctly, Ms Emerson was your secretary before. What do you think of her?" Charlotte had thought about this scene, and about how Shane would say something to embarrass her. She immediately becnervous as she kept touching the bracelet under the table. This action of hers was seen by Shane's.

"Who gave it to her?" He thought.

Although the workmanship was minimalistic, the quality of the gemstone was good. It should be a gift from Rick. His praises turned into a mild comment- "She's alright." "And by alright you mean..." "Literally what I said." The chairman of TNT rarely heard Shane complimenting someone, so he becinterested and said, "Tellmore. Maybe I don't even need to look at the data to sign the contract with the Jane Corporation." Shane looked at Charlotte and said, "This depends on Miss Charlotte's ability." "I don't dare to say anything else. At the very least, I won't embarrass myself by presenting the wrong data." Charlotte looked at him, not admitting defeat.

"Ha, ha, ha. You two are playing dumb like a pair of primary school tablemates when they first fall in love." "Who said we're in love!" Charlotte thought.

Charlotte calmed herself down and tried her best to divert the topic to project and contractual matters.

TNT intended to cooperate with Jane Corporation, and because Shane did not say anything bad about her, the signing of the contract was successful. After signing and receiving the documents that belonged to him, the chairman left after telling Shane to keep in close contact with the Jane Corporation. Why did NC have to get in touch with the Jane Corporation? Wasn't it TNT and the Jane Corporation who had signed the contract? Charlotte couldn't figure it out.

"You are wondering why he wantsto have closer contact with you." What Shane said was not a question, but a sure sentence.

"Yes." Charlotte did not deny it.

"TNT is the supplier, while I'm the raw material provider. This matter has nothing to do with NC." "Wait?" "Raw material provider?" "It had nothing to do with NC?" Charlotte raised her head abruptly and stared at Shane in disbelief, "Could it be that you..." Shane stood up and sat down beside her, but his eyes fell on the bracelet she had been touching, and he asked, "Who gave it to you?" Charlotte remained silent.

What cto mind was Rick's words: "Don't fall in love with him." "I know that you've given20% of the NC shares." Charlotte decided to attack first.

Instead of being passively teased by him, she would rather cooperate with him on her own accord.

"Rick has good thinking." Shane's voice was cold. No matter how hard she tried to decipher it, it sounded more like sarcasm than a compliment. "What do you want to usefor?" "I promised you that I would take back the Emerson Corporation for you." "But if that's the case, why did you want to divorce..." Charlotte turned her head, her shoulders moving up and down violently.

She couldn't do it.

She could not remain calm and rational in front of a person she liked. Her heart was beating very fast and every cell was jumping with joy.

She even asked the question that she had been thinking about day and night without hesitation.

Since he still wanted to use her, why did he divorce her? Shane stared at her intently. If before she left, his request for a divorce was a test, now, it wouldn't do if they didn't divorce.

"Charlotte, our relationship has always been contractual." "I just feel that if you still need to use me, we didn't have to end this contractual relationship." "Oh? So you want to know if I have fallen in love with any other woman?" Charlotte's heart sank.

He had completely seen through her thoughts.

Therefore, he should have seen that she couldn't forget him and couldn't pull herself from the waters, right? "Don't getwrong. I have a fiance now." Charlotte bit her lip and forced herself to regain rationality. "I don't have any thoughts about your feelings. I just think that it will be more beneficial for us to cooperate after I get a clear understanding of the situation." Shane was so angry that he started laughing.

He stretched out and grabbed her chin, forcing her to look at him.

"Are you sure?" "If not?" She asked, "Does Mr Fuller think that I have fallen in love with you and actually care about this marriage?" "Have you never fallen for me?" "What does he mean?" Charlotte thought.

"He doesn't like me, but I have to like him?" That's true. He was indeed charming, so it was normal for him to have this kind of confidence.

Charlotte shook her head, "I want to correct what you said just now. Between us, there is nothing else other than a contractual relationship." Nothing other than a contractual relationship.

Shane narrowed his eyes and his grip on her chin tightened.

Charlotte didn't struggle. It wasn't until the tip of her chin was numb and her neck was cold that she realized that her skin seemed to have been broken by his fingernails. Shane didn't expect her to bleed.

Frowning, he picked up a napkin from one side and helped her wipe away the blood.

Charlotte grabbed the napkin and said, "I still have work to do. I have togo back to the company first. Whenever you want that 20% of the shares, I can give them to you unconditionally. Even if you don't help get back the Emerson Corporation, I'm still very grateful to you for givinga contract when I was in most need of help." She escaped in a hurry like a frightened deer.

Shane lowered his eyes, his eyelashes trembling slightly. Her temperature and blood still lingered on his fingertips.

He rubbed his fingers together for a long time, but he could not bear to wipe the blood off his fingers.

As twent by, that little bit of blood coagulated due to his body temperature, and then disappeared with a slight touch.

A few days ago.

He had received the second DNAtest results.

When Sheryl was injured in the old house, Henry had told him to collect her DNA sample. In case of an accident, the sample could be sent to the hospital immediately.

After another round of tests, he had received the sresults as what was given to Anne.

He was related to Sheryl by 99%.

Shane closed his eyes.

It seemed that she did not intend to tell him.

Did she really fall in love with Rick? "It's only been half a month. A woman's heart is really difficult to guess." He thought.

The contract signing was a success.

This was originally a happy matter, but Charlotte looked at the celebratory cake in front of her with no feeling of joy.

The hustle and bustle around her seemed to have nothing to do with her.

"Knock! Knock! Knock!" Rick stopped beside her and tapped the table with his long fingers. "What're you thinking about?" "Nothing." She shook her head.

"Since you've met Shane, how did your conversation go?" Charlotte told him about the things she could still remember, but she did not mention anything about their marriage.

After listening to her, Rick sat down lo look an her next to her with aid that he face. "Did you say that he said that he was a raw material provider and had nothing to do with the NC Company?" X
