Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte)

Chapter 246

Charlotte pouted. "You said before that it's only right for you to help me because I'm your wife. I didn't deny it."

"So?"

"I'm very grateful to you for saving Sheryl. If you don't mind, I'm willing to marry you."

Mind?

How could he mind having her?

He couldn't wait to bring her back to his side.

Charlotte could tell that he was moved. She hesitated for a moment before moving forward to kiss him.

This seemed to be the first time she took the initiative to kiss him.

Unexpectedly, before she could touch Shane, he had already stepped back. His long finger pointed at her lips.

Charlotte was puzzled. She looked at him with a slightly injured expression.

It was obvious that he was interested in her, but now he turned her down. She couldn't help thinking of the past, the inexplicable divorce agreement, and his unforgettable past.

"I'll marry you."

"Okay." She agreed.

Shane helped her pull up the blanket. After a few moments of thought, he finally laid down beside her. Charlotte didn't reject him and allowed him to stretch out his hand and pull her into his embrace.

A few days later.

Shane and Charlotte returned to the country.

After she returned home, Charlotte had a lot of things to do, especially with the issue of the Emerson Corporation's shipping routes. Charlotte had gotten Peter's improved software. At the same time, she also obtained quite a few orders. For a while, she forgot all about Shane and Sheryl.

Three months passed by in the blink of an eye.

Charlotte received a phone call from Sheryl in the office. Only then did she remember that her daughter was in the hospital.

"Baby, I'm sorry, Mommy is too..."

"Daddy told me already that you are very busy. Besides, you can't get into the cleanroom anyway." The little girl said in a childish voice, "I am not blaming you, but have to take me to eat some delicious food today!" "Today?" Charlotte leaned to the side and looked at the planner. When she saw that there were no important meetings, she let out a sigh of relief. "Baby, I will take you."

"Yes, that's so great!"

Their conversation ended.

Charlotte flipped through the documents in front of her.

Recently, their plans for Kendall and the Emerson Corporation were pretty much complete. The Emerson Corporation had to set up a long line to catch some big fish.

Kendall...

She was still a little short on information about the Stevens Family.

She had contacted the people who had a grudge against the Stevens Family. Only then could she force Kendall far away from River City, and so that she would stay away from Charlotte and Sheryl.

And based on this, it was possible that he would have to hand over Rick's...

Charlotte smiled bitterly.

She suddenly felt that she was being cruel. Rick had pretty much developed into the Asia Pacific region because of her, but she had driven him away ungratefully.

Knock, knock!

"Come in." She came back to her senses.

"Ms. Emerson, I'm going to take you to the hospital. Mr. Fuller called me." Peter walked into the office.

"I can go by myself."

"Mr. Fuller said that there will be a press conference after he picks up his daughter."

"A press conference?"

Charlotte absent-mindedly looked at the drawer at the bottom left and chuckled. "Alright, take me there."

Sheryl had not seen the two of them for a long time. The first thing she did when she saw them was to cry loudly.

Charlotte had no choice but to hug her.

The little girl was very sensible, but she was still a child. She still threw a tantrum when she knew that she had been wronged.

Charlotte tried to coax her for a while, but Shane immediately promised that she would not be admitted to a hospital again. Only then did Sheryl stop crying and smiled instead.

"Daddy, Mommy promised that she would have dinner with me today!" Sheryl winked at Shane.

"Of course, but we have to go somewhere else first."

Somewhere else?

The little girl tilted her head to look at him.

Shane was referring to the press conference.

This was the second press conference he was holding after he handed over his shares of NC Company to Christopher. All the media were focused on him and wanted to know what happened with him and NC Company afterward.

And yet.

Shane showed up with a woman and a child.

All the media were at a loss.

"This is my girlfriend of five years. And our child."

After Shane came onstage, he explained the key point of the press conference with only short sentences.

Girlfriend of five years, a child.

The reporters immediately burst into an uproar, and the voices of discussion grew louder and louder, but no one dared to raise their hands to ask questions.

In the end, a media representative who had a good relationship with Shane put forward the first question—

"Excuse me, Mr. Fuller, is the woman standing next to you Miss Charlotte Emerson, the one who was engaged to the chairman of the Jane Corporation,

Rick Jane?" "Yes."

"So did Mr. Jane steal your lover?"

"Yes."

The audience was filled with commotion. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Charlotte felt a little uneasy. She stood on the stage holding the hem of her shirt and with her head lowered. She didn't dare to look at the reporters.

As the first question was so explosive, the others naturally would not be too nice either.

"Mr. Fuller, you've been in a relationship for five years and haven't gotten married. Why did you choose to announce it at this time?"

"We're going to get married."

"You transferred your shares to Mr. Gibson before, was it because you want to start a family?"

"Yes."

"Mr. Fuller, you once said at an interview that your dream is for the country to be prosperous and to have infinite wealth. Are you giving up all this now for the sake of having a family?"

Shane was silent in the face of this question.

He passed the microphone directly to Charlotte.

Shane didn't actually want the country to be prosperous. It was only something he said to please the government. He wanted to look like a patriotic citizen so that he could open a secondary market in the country in the future.

However, Charlotte was different. Although she hid it very well, he could see that she had a patriotic heart from the incident with the fishpeople.

"Infinite wealth is the pursuit of life. For the country to be prosperous, every citizen has to have strong faith and maintain it together. This does not go against wanting to have a family," Charlotte answered slowly.

She was nervous facing the camera. However, when she had something she wanted to say, she was no longer nervous.

In an instant.

The reporters' mics all pointed at her.

"Miss Emerson, why did you get engaged to Mr. Jane before?"

The reporters all suddenly became silent. Everyone was waiting for Charlotte's answer.

No one expected that...

Charlotte turned to look at Shane. Her soft voice reached everyone's ears through the microphone — "Can I say it?"

"Yes, you can."

Charlotte lowered her head and smiled. "Shane hurt me before because of some special circumstances. When I needed protection the most, Rick took care of me, loved me, and said that he didn't care about my past. But we had differences on some things later."

"Did that difference have to do with Miss Kendall Stevens?"

Rick and Kendall had been very high- profile at many New Year's Eve parties.

The media also did not know that Kendall had kidnapped Sheryl, so they had always suspected that Kendall was the other woman in Rick and Charlotte's relationship.

"No, there was another disagreement first. That's why Ms. Kendall returned to the country," explained Charlotte.

"If Miss Stevens did not return to the country, would you have made up?"

"Shane probably wouldn’t have given us a chance to make up," Charlotte said as she smiled at the reporters, "When you lose someone, you will know how precious they are. Shane and I have never stopped loving each other, and we are all very grateful for Rick's help."

On TV.

Charlotte was natural and at ease, with a happy smile on her face as she stood next to Shane.

They didn't seem to be at odds at all. They were like a couple who had been married for many years.

It was a perfect combination of appearance and spirit.

Although Charlotte's appearance could not compete with the delicate faces in the entertainment industry, she was also a real beauty. With her unique charisma, it was difficult for people to have a bad opinion of her.

The questions asked by the reporters also became less aggressive.

Soon, the topic turned to Sheryl.

Sheryl grabbed the microphone on her own and answered in a childish voice, leaning into Shane's embrace.

Everyone was amused by the cute appearance of the little girl. They didn't ask questions seriously and simply teased her.

"Sheryl, do you prefer Dad or Mom?"

"I like Great-grandma more!"

Sheryl replied decisively.
