Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte)

Chapter 93

Elaine deliberately enunciated the word "ability". Anyone could understand the meaning behind her words.

"Ability? I think it's likely that she's seduced someone in the higher-ups. Don't you agree?"

Quincy Zimmer asked Elaine with absolute certainty. She was even more certain of it when Elaine didn't give her an answer.

Before Charlotte entered the company, she had always been the top candidate for the position of chief designer. However, the night before she was told this position was already filled by someone else.

Elaine touched the necklace around her neck as Quincy left. A plan formed in her mind.

She wanted to make it so Charlotte will leave the Emerson Corporation without her even lifting a finger.

At the gate of the kindergarten.

Shane held Sheryl's hand as they walked into the kindergarten. Class usually starts at nine o'clock so Shane wasn't in a hurry.

"Daddy, this is my kindergarten."

Sheryl pointed at the building before them proudly. She seemed to be very excited. After some thought, she suddenly asked him hopefully, "Daddy, will you bring me to kindergarten all the time?"

"Sure."

Shane agreed without hesitation and stroked her hair adoringly.

"You're..."

"Good morning, teacher."

Shane didn't intend to reply, but when he heard Sheryl's sweet voice, he glanced over calmly.

"Teacher, he is my new daddy."

Sheryl raised her head proudly as if she was showing off something precious to everyone else.

"Teacher, although my daddy is very handsome, you can't steal him away. He belongs to my mommy only."

Sheryl blinked innocently and tugged at Shane's hand. He couldn't help but smile at her words.

"It's almost time for class. Sheryl's daddy, you can hand her over to me."

A blush suddenly appeared on the woman's face as she frantically took Sheryl's hand from the tall and handsome man.

"Daddy, bye."

Sheryl waved at the man who was standing in the middle of the crowd. She was somewhat reluctant to part with him.

"Charlotte, these are the original design drafts that Mr. Miller needs. We're all too busy now so you would have to send them over."

Quincy glared at the people around and instantly put on an anxious look.

"Alright."

Charlotte was already kind-hearted to begin with. She took the stack of design drafts and walked out. She did not notice the vicious gaze behind her at all.

"You obviously had the time to go..."

Someone pipped in weakly from beside. Quincy glared at her and she immediately quieted down.

Everyone in the company knew that she was Director Emerson's handy assistant. Anyone who crossed her will have no choice but to leave the company.

It seemed that Charlotte's good days had come to an end.

At this moment, Charlotte was staring blankly at the rising numbers in the elevator. She did not know danger was approaching her.

Suddenly, she realised something was wrong. Charlotte's heart instantly jumped to her throat.

The lift began to fall bit by bit. Without any warning, it descended into a free fall. Charlotte was filled with fear.

"Is anyone there?"

Charlotte didn't dare take another step towards the elevator's door.

She was answered by the echoes of her own voice.

"Why hasn't Charlotte returned yet? Could something have happened?"

The colleague, who was sitting closest to Charlotte, couldn't help but mutter.

"Felix, do you like Charlotte? Who knows if she's in Mr. Miller's warm embrace by now. You have nothing to be worried about."

Quincy rolled her eyes disdainfully and was about to leave with her cup of coffee.

"Stop right there."

Felix Williams clenched his fists tightly. He strode forward and blocked the took a long step and directly blocked the bully of a woman.

"Felix Williams, what do you think you're doing? What can you get for going against me for the sake of that newcomer, Charlotte?"

Quincy couldn't help but snap.

"I only know that the consequences of your actions will be severe if I don't stop you!"

"I've told you, I don't know. Can't you understand?"

Almost everyone was watching the two of them fight.

"What are you arguing about?"

Elaine had already noticed the situation through the security cameras early on, but she took her time to walk over.

"It's just that newcomer, Charlotte, had wandered off somewhere but Felix keeps insisting that I lost her. She's an adult, how could I..."

"There was an accident with the elevator. It seems that someone is trapped inside."

The security guard suddenly rushed over directly towards the broken down elevator.

When a crowd formed outside the design department, Quincy glanced at them scornfully and followed behind reluctantly.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Half an hour later, Charlotte finally walked out of the elevator miserably. She scanned the surrounding crowd with her cold eyes.

Perhaps five years ago, she would have naively thought that this was an accident, but that was no longer the case now.

The indifference in Charlotte's eyes stunned Quincy for a moment. She pretended to be oblivious towards her.

"Thank you."

Charlotte was always a person with a clear sense of judgement. She turned towards the security guard who had rescued her and thanked him.

"Charlotte, I didn't hurt you on purpose. You're the one who took this elevator because you're unlucky. Don't you slander me!"

Quincy deliberately walked in front of Charlotte. She didn't think Charlotte would accuse her in front of so many people.

"I don't care if you're involved or not. I'll definitely investigate this matter thoroughly."

Charlotte looked at Quincy coldly. Quincy pretended to be calm as she swallowed hard.

"Knock-"

There was a sudden knock on the door of the Fuller Group's office on the top floor.

"Come in."

Shane frowned in displeasure, his eyes were ice cold.

"Shane, there's something I have to tell you."

Braden suddenly rushed in imposingly. He slowed down when he saw Shane's look that could almost kill him.

"What's the matter?"

Anyone could tell how impatient Shane was.

"Did you know that Charlotte is currently the designer of the Emerson Corporation? She's also the Chief designer!"

Braden bellowed without any warning. His eyes widened when he saw Shane's calm reaction and pointed in disbelief at him.

"You already knew it, didn't you?"

"I didn't know."

Shane tapped his fingers on the desk rhythmically with a playful smirk on the corner of his lips.

It seemed that he underestimated this woman!

"Don't you know Charlotte was the Design Manager for our company? She had seen through multiple designs when she worked here. What if she betrays us and sells one of our designs to the Emerson Corporation?"

Shane's calm expression made Braden realize that he was way more concerned about this than his friend.

Humph, why would he? He wasn't the one who was all over that Charlotte broad!

there was a trace of helplessness in Shane's eyes. He still remembered the determination and anger on Charlotte's dainty face when she was accused of selling company designs.

"Don't doubt my passion for this profession!"

That was what she said before, wasn't it?

"I'm done. There's no use for me to say anything further."

Braden's expression showed that he had given up thoroughly. He put his hand on his forehead and shook it helplessly.

Braden's phone vibrated in his pocket. He smiled and waved at Shane as he leisurely answered his phone. "Anne, where are you?"

"Okay, wait for me there. I'll be right there."
