Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte)

Chapter 245

The outline of Shane's jaw was as delicate and charming as a knife. There was no extra flesh on his face, and his muscles were not stiff. In addition, he had no expression at the moment, so he looked even colder.

The side view of his face was very attractive.

Charlotte felt her heart beat faster and faster.

"When I saw Rick that day, he said that you slept with him?" Shane suddenly tilted his head.

In fact, when you looked from the side, his facial features could be soft, but when you looked from the front, especially into the pair of cold eyes...

Charlotte's wildly beating heartbeat suddenly stopped.

She was so frightened by him that she almost fainted. She swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva before she regained her senses.

"I don't remember, but I definitely didn't do anything with him..." She argued in a low voice.

"You don't remember?" His voice turned colder.

"Even if I slept with him before, we didn't get married. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with you."

"Are you sure you want to talk to me in this tone?"

"Because I really don't remember."

Shane replied with a 'humph' and did not continue on this topic.

They walked through an alley to arrive at a more lively street.

For a moment, Charlotte couldn't get used to it. Previously, it had been completely silent, but now, there was a lot of noise. Her eardrums had suffered a huge shock.

However, she soon got used to it. It was good that it was lively. There were more people here.

"Do you want to eat something or not?"

"But I don't even know the language here, so I don't know what these are." Charlotte was a little conflicted.

X Country was good in all aspects, but it was only that, at these small stalls, there were no pictures, only bolded words. Although it looked good, it also made it impossible for her to know what they were selling.

Shane pointed to a line of words and said, "Raw beef with eggs."

"What's that?"

"A drink." He pointed to another string of words.

Shane was multitalented.

As Charlotte thought about this, her gaze became increasingly gentle as she looked at him.

This trip seemed to close the distance between them.

They left the market and returned to their residence.

Charlotte took out her mobile phone and found out that Zoe had sent her a resignation message.

It was extremely short, and the crux of it was asking whether or not it was approved.

Charlotte bit her lips and thought for a while. She didn't even ask Shane before rejecting her directly.

"I don't care where you used to work, and I don't care if you're working under me or Shane now. To me, you are Zoe, my hardworking assistant. So, no matter what, I will only recognize you. There is no use saying anything else."

After she sent the message.

Charlotte placed her phone to the side to charge.

Shane went to take a shower. She picked up his laptop and turned on it to study the issue of the shipping routes.

In order to prevent the problems of her memory, Charlotte even deliberately took out a notebook and wrote down all the details that she needed. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Suddenly.

She had used Shane's account to log on to social media when a message jumped out.

Tiffany: Shane, I'm so bored in the villa alone. Do you want to come over and play with me?"

"Play with her?" Charlotte wondered.

The corner of Charlotte's mouth twitched. She didn't take the message seriously.

How old was she that she could talk about playing so much?

Tiffany: "I got a batch of very good goods. If you want to take them, you can take them."

Goods?

Charlotte was stunned for a moment.

Tiffany: I'm sure they can make you feel like you're flying. Do you want to have some fun?

Goods? That could make you feel like you're flying...

All of a sudden, Charlotte's mind made a guess.

Squeak-

Just then, the bathroom door opened.

She took a deep breath. She did not look back or close the computer. She just kept acting as if she were taking notes.

Charlotte could sense Shane standing behind her.

He seemed to have removed the bath towel from her neck and was drying her hair, making the back of her neck feel cold.

"What're you taking notes for?" His deep and cold voice rang in her ears.

"This." She handed the notebook to him and said, "Some shipping routes and names."

'TH ask Peter to send you the software directly."

"Why didn't you say so earlier?" Charlotte was annoyed.

"I forgot."

Shane sat down beside her and smoothly took the laptop from her. When he saw the icon of the social media site flash, he clicked it open and his eyes turned cold.

Shane closed the laptop with a flip of his hand and held Charlotte's chin in his long fingers. "Did you see the message Tiffany sent me?"

Charlotte wanted to deny it, but in reality, she had already seen it anyway.

"Yes, I saw it."

"You're not going to ask me?"

"There's nothing to ask. That's your business. I don't want to add to your troubles," she said.

Shane stared at her deeply. He wanted to see if there were other emotions in her eyes and face, but he couldn't.

She just answered as if it was a matter of course and there was nothing to ask.

Shane let go of her, leaned against the sofa, and said, "It's normal to take those things in the entertainment industry."

"You don't have to explain to me. As long as the police didn't arrest you, as far as I'm concerned you never took anything," she said.

According to her character, she shouldn't have handled it like this.

Shane frowned. "Why?"

"Because it has nothing to do with me. If you want to take those things, I can't do anything. Even if I want to keep Sheryl away from you, as long as you don't agree, what can I do? What's more, from her words, I can tell that you don't want to."

"..." He pursed his lips.

In her eyes, was he someone she couldn't bargain with?

Charlotte stood up and said, I'm going to the other bedroom to sleep now."

The suite Shane got was very large. There was a master bedroom and a second bedroom, so she could sleep in the other bedroom.

Shane didn't stop her and let her go.

Charlotte lay on the bed.

She let out a long sigh of relief.

Judging from Shane's reaction just now, her answer made him unhappy.

He could be displeased because, according to her, he made decisions too arbitrarily. Actually, she also knew that he was not so arbitrary with her. He just thought that she should have feelings for him, so he was a bit unscrupulous when he was here with her.

If he really touched those things, he would let her and Sheryl leave him instead.

He had a clear view of right and wrong.

From this point of view, she really should apologize to him.

Charlotte kept thinking for a while and couldn't sleep. After a while, the door was suddenly pushed open, and she was so scared that she closed her eyes immediately.

Warm fingers fell on the tip of her nose. Charlotte endured it and did not move. The tips of the fingers ran all the way down until finally landing on her neck.

Shane opened his palm and grasped her neck.

Right now, as long as he exerted a little bit of force, she could probably be choked to death by him.

Charlotte opened her eyes.

Their eyes met.

"Do you want to strangle me?" She reached out and grabbed his hand.

She grabbed him, but he didn't let go of her neck, so she didn't exert herself anymore. She just held his hand.

"Yes, I do."

"Why?"

"You can't be controlled."

"Shane, I'm a person, not your toy." She laughed, "Why should I be controlled by you?"

She should love him, and she shouldn't leave him.

The coldness in Shane's eyes turned deeper.

Before things went out of control, Charlotte suddenly got up and hugged him. "I'm sorry."

Shane was stunned.

"I was too aggravated just now. I can understand your thoughts, but I can't..."

Her feelings were very complicated.

Maybe she should try things out with Shane, but she didn't know how.

That was, until he reached out and strangled her

neck.

Somehow, she breathed a sigh of relief. After all, Shane was calm and composed, so he shouldn't have any extreme and dangerous thoughts. Therefore, since he had this idea, it meant that in his mind, she must be his, even if she was a corpse.

This idea that "she must be his" made her feel scared, but also gave her a slight sense of security.

"I have feelings for you."

"I know, I... uh..."

Before she could finish her sentence, he kissed her.

In the world of love, Shane was like a spoiled child. If he wanted a toy, he would reach out and get it. Even if it didn't belong to him, he would take it.

Unfortunately, she seemed to be a toy of this spoiled child.

Was this a continuation of what happened five years ago?

Moments later.

Shane let go of her. His expression had returned to normal, and there was no trace of cruelty in his eyes. There was only indifference left in his gaze.
