Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 108

"I'm going home for a bit. Please postpone today's meeting by half an hour." Timothy picked up the suit jacket hanging on the rack and left the office in a hurry.

At Emerson family house, Elaine placed her hand on a man's waist and walked into the empty villa with a smile on her face.

"There's really no one here."

The man felt at ease instantly and kissed a coquettish Elaine in his arms. He heard her laugh in satisfaction.

"Would I lie to you?" Elaine pretended to punch him angrily, but not very forcefully. She continued, "Don't you trust me?"

"Of course I do."

The man tightened his arm around Elaine. He raised the corner of his mouth handsomely and said, "Baby, I've always trusted you."

"That's more like it."

Satisfied, Elaine broke away from the man's hold, walked around the vast living room, and then sat down on a leather sofa.

"This will be mine in the future. What do you think?"

"Very nice, but are you sure that the old guy, Timothy, won't suddenly come back?" The man was still a little worried as he looked around.

Elaine stared at him with her beautiful eyes. Her face, which was covered with a thick and heavy white foundation, looked a little unnatural. In the end, she snorted.

"He would have told me if he's coming back. Don't worry, he won't come back."

After hearing Elaine's promise, the man instantly became bold.

"Where's our son? I haven't seen him in a while."

"Alistair has gone to school. Did you think that everyone is as ignorant and incompetent as you? But I really feel a little sorry for Timothy. He's even raising someone else's son, haha."

Elaine's laughter gradually drifted into Timothy's hearing, who had been hiding outside the door for some time.

"You scandalous couple!"

Timothy clutched his collar tightly and thumped at his heart. His feet trembled as they moved.

"Ti... Timothy, listen to me."

Elaine suddenly turned around. When she saw the man standing at the door with his briefcase, she instantly became worried and walked toward Timothy. As soon as her hand touched his arm, she was thrown off by him ruthlessly.

"Get lost!"

Still exasperated, Timothy coughed violently.

"Timothy..."

The man who had been standing behind Elaine suddenly stood in front of her to protect her. He arrogantly looked at Timothy before him and said word by word, "Old man, I'm not afraid to tell you that Alistair is my child. Thanks for taking care and loving him for so many years.."

"You... you..."

Timothy pointed at the two of them standing side by side. Suddenly, he took a few steps backward and tried to grasp at something with his weak hands. In the end, he only slid down the wall.

"Timothy?"

Elaine looked at Timothy, who was motionless on the ground, and walked over mechanically, trying to reach out to him.

"He... he..."

As Elaine looked at the man on the ground, her legs turned weak. She continued, "What should we do? What should we do?"

"Let's take him to the hospital first."

The man put his hand gently on Elaine's shoulder and said softly. There was a flash of shrewdness in his eyes.

"Alright, you leave first. Leave the rest to me."

Elaine took a deep breath. This was the moment she had been waiting for. She had planned for a long time for this day. She had not even hesitated in sacrificing her youth. Now, she had to calm down.

In order to avoid other people's suspicions, Elaine quickly dialed the emergency hotline. It was only after the ambulance arrived that Elaine pretended to cry fiercely.

"Doctor, save him quickly!"

"Please, I'm begging you."

Elaine clutched at the doctor's sleeve with snot and tears on her face. She did not care about her own image at all.
