Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Avery looked towards her and noticed she was standing at the door with her knees half-bent. Her legs and thighs were full of thorns.

Avery immediately put down the mouse and walked towards her. He picked her up and asked, "What happened?" "I accidentally fell onto a cactus." There was not a trace of fear in her voice. She was quite calm.

She was badly injured. Avery couldn't care much. He quickly laid her down in her room and called the doctor. According to the doctor, he has to disinfect her wound with alcohol to prevent an infection. While waiting for the doctor, Olive stared at the ceiling blankly. It wasn't that she didn't feel pain but she had suffered worse before. Hence, she felt there was no need to fuss about this injury.

Soon, the doctor rushed to the house. He was stunned when he saw Olive. "This is..." My newly adopted daughter. Don't worry about anything else, treat her wounds first." Avery pointed at Olive's knee. "I've already cleaned her wounds a little. But you know I can't see the thorns well." "Don't worry. I don't know why you wanted to play basketball that year. Now you've ruined your eyes and probably your brain too." Skylar took out a pair of tweezers from his medical bag and knelt before Olive to pull out the thorns on her skin. Avery didn't bother to respond. Skylar was surprised and asked, "Don't you feel any pain?" Olive shook her head. "I'm fine," she answered.

"Avery, is there something wrong with your adopted daughter's nerve? Did she go through a body check-up before you brought her back?" Avery never thought of this issue. "No, the family who adopted her before did it and they sent the results to me. There was no problem. She just has a stronger endurance than usual people." "Do you want to have a taste of this pain?" Skylar asked as he wiped off the blood on one of the thorns and soaked it into alcohol.

"Con." "No, Mr. Avery..." Olive was a little worried. After all, it still hurt, it's just she could tolerate the pain.

Unlike Olive, Skylar didn't pity Avery. After making sure the thorn was sterilised, he stabbed it into Avery's knee as deep as Olive's wound. Avery winced immediately, it was so painful he gnashed his teeth. The pain was hard to describe. It was like the gentle touch of a nail but the feeling of the sharp end piercing into the skin was so bad.

The moment the thorn entered his skin, he felt an uncomfortable pain.

To put it simply, the discomfort was greater than the pain and this kind of discomfort was more unbearable than pain.

Skylar pulled out the thorn.

"D*mn..." Avery couldn't help but curse.

"How did it feel?" Skylar asked with a smile.

"How can you bear it, Olive?" "I didn't. I really don't feel pain." Olive looked confused. Why did Avery feel pain? Was it because Avery liked an indulging life? Avery smirked. He only had two choices now. One was to admit there was something wrong with his nerves, another was to admit there was something wrong with Olive's nerves. However, neither one of them seemed to be good.

"Can you test pain receptors?" Avery asked.

"Sure," he replied. "But you have to cwithto my research room." "I'll go over when I'm done with Braden's matter. Run a test forand Olive." "Alright." Skylar left after treating Olive's wound. There were many small wounds on Olive's knee. She might not be able to recover in a short time.

Avery looked at her pale skin and he felt sorry for her. Although she was not his child, they could bond through joys and sorrows. His heart ached as he saw her like this.

"Olive, rest well for a while. You can skip your classes." "Mr. Avery, there's no need to. I hurt my legs but I still can learn. I just can't run." Olive had a strong desire to learn.

"I said stop." Olive felt a little upset. But she just nodded obediently and didn't protest anymore.

Anyway, she could secretly do shomework and Avery wouldn't mind. She knew he just wanted her to rest well.

After taking care of Olive, Avery returned to the computer. He only found out Peter had sent him a lot of messages. Avery rubbed his temples. His head ached but he had to continue looking through the documents on the table.

After he finished, his whole body was in pain. Peter didn't give him a lot of information but swere in a foreign language. He didn't know how Peter got them.

Suddenly, he saw a piece of information and his eyes widened in an instant.

This...

No, that didn't seem right.

At the stime.

Charlotte was currently working on scompany's business. Ever since the wedding, she had been extremely busy. It was mainly because she pushed off everything from one week before and after the wedding. So now she had to deal with a lot of unfinished work and continue her other work.

It meant that she had to do at least three days of work in a day. There were too many things.

"Knock! Knock! Knock!" Someone suddenly knocked on the door as she was busy dealing with the documents.

She looked up and said, "Cin." Peter pushed the door open and answered, "Miss Charlotte, it's me." Charlotte nodded at him. "What's wrong?" "Here's the thing. Avery noticed sabnormal data, then asked someone to investigate the dock and found that Braden had appeared at the dock once. But at that time, he didn't have Anne with him so the two of them may not even be at sea now." Charlotte quickly looked at Shane. After all, Braden was his best friend.

Shane raised his head, but did not make any comment. He just motioned for Peter to go on.

"What Avery meant was maybe both Anne and Braden had been kidnapped by someone and the probability of this happening is not small..." Peter's voice trailed off as he said, "And the person who kidnapped them might be Christopher." "Is there enough evidence?" "There is enough." "Call the police." Peter was stunned for a second, then nodded. "I'm going to make a report now."

As Charlotte listened, she wanted to stop Peter from making a police report but Shane remained calm even after Peterdeft. She instantly En.

understood his intentions. After a long silence, she asked softly, "What if Christopher got shot by the police this time?" "Do you think he's a fool?" "Not really. I just felt your decision was a little strange." Shane was still silent. He leaned back in his chair and his eyes fell on the table in front of him. There were all kinds of pens on the table, which were used to sign different characters.

Charlotte shut her mouth after seeing that he didn't want to reveal more.

He knew Christopher and Braden better than her. She only understood Anne at most.

At this time, where would Anne be?

Charlotte couldn't help but ponder on this question. After a long time, she raised her hand and rubbed herm temples. Only Braden had been to the dock. It was known that he just went there, it was not clear whether he had boarded the ship or not. In other words, he might have boarded the ship and he might have not. Read the latest chapter there The results of these two speculations were completely different.

According to the different results, Anne's choice would differ too. One was that Anne got on the boat with O Braden. The other was that Anne didn't board the boat with Braden. The third was that Braden didn't get on the boat with Anne, and the fourth was that Anne didn't get on the boat with Braden, but Braden got on the boat. These four theories all revolved around the sthing-the boat.

According to Peter and Avery's investigations, the boat didn't exist at all.

It didn't exist...

Even if they hadn't boarded the ship, the ship must've existed.

Otherwise, why would they go to the dock? Charlotte felt that she had vaguely grasped something.
