Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 122

"Are you asleep?"

Charlotte suddenly closed her eyes tightly. After thinking for a while, she sent the text message before putting down her mobile phone. Her heart suddenly started beating faster.

At that moment, Shane heard his phone ring with the text message notification. He slowly slid his fingers across the phone, and the corners of his mouth curved into a faint smile.

"Yes," he answered.

A few minutes later, Charlotte received a text message with only one word. She was still a little unhappy.

Couldn't he reply with more than one word?

Wasn't it a waste of money to just send a one-word text message?

Charlotte stared at the text message with Shane's name on it and muttered angrily. But in the next second-

"Retreat! Charlotte, what exactly are you doing she thought.

Her fingers unconsciously sent a heart emoji.

Charlotte's heart was almost beating out of her chest. She wanted to unsend her message, but she couldn't do that. She could only blush and hide under the blanket.

In the guest room, Shane glanced at the heart emoji he received, and his face was completely overtaken with tenderness. He slowly put down the phone and turned off the lamp beside him.

Early the next morning, Charlotte walked down the stairs with dark bags under her eyes. When she saw the man sitting indifferently in front of the computer in the living room, her drowsiness instantly was instantly reduced in half.

"When did you get back?"

"Just now." Shane slightly raised the corner of his mouth and replied lightly.

Upon hearing Shane's words, Charlotte recalled last night's text message and felt another wave of awkwardness. "Then you came back for..."

"To take Sheryl to school."

Shane said it naturally, as if this was one of his responsibilities.

"I can also..."

As Charlotte's voice trailed off, Shane immediately said, "Charlotte, did you forget that it's only a few more days to the auction?" "Does this man have mood swings? He was so gentle before, and now he's acting like this?" Charlotte wondered.

"I didn't forget."

In the past few days, she had been learning about this action. She was sure that she could win it.

"Alright."

Shane nodded, but he didn't say anything else.

After going to work, Charlotte shut herself in her office the whole time and refused to come out. Even her lunch was brought over by Zoe.

"You're really being so serious about this?"

Zoe walked over with a smile and looked at the draft in Charlotte's hand. She put her hands on her desk and stared at Charlotte.

"There are only two days left." Charlotte couldn't help but mumble. She didn't pay much attention to her tone.

In fact, after working in the Fuller Group for so long, she had begun to become familiar with Zoe, and she could even joke with her sometimes.

"Maybe Mr. Gibson can help you. After all, everyone in the design department must know about this project, so..."

Zoe maintained a smile on her face, which made Charlotte agree without hesitation.

"You're right, I was being too stupid."

Charlotte looked Zoe up and down and asked suspiciously, "Zoe, do you like Mr. Gibson?"

"Why do you ask?" Zoe pretended to be calm and looked directly at Charlotte.

"I'm just asking casually. I'm very curious about what kind of person you would like. In my opinion, in the company, only Mr. Gibson and the CEO are good enough, unless..."
