Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte)

Chapter 332

"Why do I need to agree?" Kendall tilted her head. She wasn't married to Rick, and this wasn't shared property. Even if she married him, it had nothing to do with her if Rick wanted to give his sister his shares.

She was not the kind of person who got married for money. As long as Rick was by her side, it did not matter even if the two of them had to work. She would be with him for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer.

If the situation really became extremely bad, and he became a beggar, then she would become a beggar with him.

"We're all adults. Is it fun to pretend with me?" Anne did not believe that Kendall was not interested in all the Jane family had. Who would not be tempted by money?

Kendall was even more puzzled when she heard that. "I'm not pretending. These are Rick's shares, not mine. How would I..."

How dare you act so close to him?"

Anne suddenly got angry, and Kendall felt extremely wronged. Before she could say anything, Anne slapped her in the face. Kendall had been pampered since she was a child. The first time she was beaten, it was by Shane and Charlotte.

She didn't expect to be slapped by Anne too. Although Kendall was wronged, she didn't complain. She rubbed her face and silently lowered her head to explain, "These are Rick's shares, not mine. I have no right to agree or disagree. He asked me to pass this to you, so I came here."

"Kendall, don't think that you'll be fine just because you're pretending to be innocent. Charlotte was deceived by you, but I won't be!"

"I don't have any ulterior motives." Kendall's face was pale. She wasn't here for Rick's money. She wasn't!

"No ulterior motives? You went to my brother's room in the middle of the night and you're helping him pass this document to me. If you're not expecting to become his wife, what is it you're up to then?"

Kendall really didn't have such plans.

She had always done whatever Rick told her to. She wanted to explain it to Anne, but was powerless to do so. All her words seemed useless.

"Get out of here now." Anne was starting to get

unreasonable.

"Anne." Braden couldn't stand aside anymore. He walked to her side and put his arm around her shoulder. "Rick must have his reasons for sending her here. Don't worry. Maybe Rick is busy or something. Don't quarrel with Kendall."

There was no need to quarrel. If Rick really wanted Kendall, he wouldn't be swayed by Anne.

If Rick didn't really want Kendall and he just wanted to make use of her for some purpose, then it was less likely that Anne could sway Rick.

Ordinarily, Anne would have thought this through better. But today, she lost her temper and pushed Braden away. "Get out of my way. I won't let it go until I clear things!"

"I'm not doing it for Rick's money. Even if he doesn't have any money, I'll still like..."

"Is it possible for him to have no money?" Anne sneered at Kendall. "Do you know that it's harder for him to go bankrupt than for him to make a hundred million dollars?"

"But I..." She really liked him.

"I don't care what your motive is. Even if my sister-in-law isn't Charlotte, it can't be you. Don't even think about it. My brother has many women like you around him." Anne did not hide the disgust and disdain in her eyes.

Anne would have been fine if it were someone else. But why did it have to be someone from the Stevens family?

Not to mention her disgusting brother Caleb. Anne hated everything about her.

Braden hugged Anne and said, "Hey, Kendall. Why don't you go and tell Rick that you've handed over the document?"

"But, Rick said that he wanted me to watch Anne sign the document before leaving..." Kendall bit her lip.

"Why are you still here!" This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Anne raised her hand again.

This time.

When her wrist was caught by someone strong and powerful. She thought it was Braden and was about to lose her temper. However, when she looked up, she found Rick. She didn't even know when he had gotten here.

Anne shook him off and glared at him. "What are you doing? Why are you treating this b*tch Kendall so well? And you're even asking her to pass this share transfer agreement to me?"

"Just now, Charlotte sent me a message asking me to attend an event tomorrow." Rick frowned.

He just wanted to find an excuse to send Kendall away.

The event was real, but its purpose was to break up with Avery in public. Therefore, when he made the call, it was better for Kendall not to be by his side.

"Rick, are you sure you want to be with her?" Anne didn't care whether Rick was busy or not. She just hated Kendall.

"Worry about your own wedding."

Rick turned to look at Kendall.

She lowered her head, trying to hide her red and slightly swollen cheek from Rick.

Rick let go of Anne's hand and clasped Kendall's wrist.

As she watched the two of them leave, Anne slammed the door shut and sat down on the sofa to sulk.

"You've never been like this before. What's up this time? Did Kendall step on your tail?" Braden sat down beside her and held her in his arms.

"It's none of your business."

Anne answered huffily.

She didn't like Kendall because of many reasons. Without even one of those reasons, she wouldn't hate her so much. She couldn't understand it herself. At least, she couldn't put it into words on such short notice.

Braden was not frustrated at all. Instead, he squeezed himself closer to her and said, "I am your husband. If it has nothing to do with me, it must not be a big deal. So let's play some phone games. Brine Glory maybe. I'll play against you!"

Anne laughed all of a sudden. She took out her phone and started playing. "Okay."

Rick brought Kendall to his room.

She sat on the sofa with her hands on her knees. The way she sat looked just like a primary school kid. She looked kind of pitiful.

Rick took out the first aid kit and applied a thin layer of cool ointment on her face. "What did you talk about? Why did she slap you?"

Kendall shook her head.

When she was beaten by Charlotte and Shane, she didn't dare to tell him too much, fearing that he would hate her because of this. Now that she was slapped by his sister, Kendall dared even less to say anything. She wouldn't dare tell Rick even if she had been stabbed by his sister. She knew very well how much he liked this sister.

Both Avery and Rick were famous for spoiling their sisters. These two people could do anything fortheir sisters.

Before she came to Brine, Caleb had especially reminded her that she could steal any woman's man, but she had to be careful of these two people.

However, when he spoke of Avery, Kendall's brother's tone was very disdainful.

"If you don't tell me, how am I supposed to get you justice?" Rick sighed. How could he not know what Kendall was thinking?

But he really didn't want her to feel wronged because of him. There was no need for it.

Kendall kept shaking her head. "It's really nothing. I made her angry. Stop asking, Rick."

"If you won't tell me, I'll go and ask Anne."

"Hey!" Kendall immediately grabbed his sleeve. "I, I'll tell you..."

Kendall did not add fuel to the fire. She only told Rick what happened. Kendall even deliberately said that Anne was very friendly, and that she only had a very strong reaction when she acted very friendly with Rick.

Kendall had already found an excuse for Anne. "She might just think that I'm just trying to steal her brother away from her."

"Kendall, my sister is going to get married in twenty days. If she is not getting married, I would believe you. But she is going to get married soon.

Why would she have such a big reaction for me? What else are you hiding from me?" Rick did not believe the reason Kendall gave.

He thought that if Anne slapped Kendall because of this, then either Kendall was finding an excuse for Anne and lying to him, or Anne had found an excuse to slap Kendall.

She had never been so clingy to him even before she had Braden, let alone now that she did.

She had left without a trace for months. Even Charlotte knew that she had come back while he as her brother didn't. How could she say that Anne slapped her because of him?

It didn't stand up to logic.

"That's what happened," Kendall answered in a low voice.
