Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 155

Braden took it, confused. "What is this?"

Charlotte shook her head. "I don't know what it is either. Open it and look for yourself."

Braden was especially curious about Rick. After all, although this guy was Anne's brother, he always had an unfathomable demeanour. Braden opened the box in doubt

"What was I thinking? It's just a document." Braden thought.

Braden picked it up and flipped through two pages. Then, he exclaimed and threw the documents to Shane as if he was dropping a hot potato. "It's, it's..."

Charlotte was also curious about what it was.

She leaned over and asked, "Why is your reaction so huge?"

"It's really scary." Braden shivered.

His expression didn't seem like he was acting. Did Rick really put something terrible in it?

Charlotte was also a little curious.

Rick heard the noise and came over. He was amused by Braden's exaggerated look. "It's just NC's and the Fuller family shares. What's there to be surprised about?"

Shane had also finished reading the words on it at this time. He looked at Rick coldly with a gloomy expression.

Rick squinted and smiled, which made it impossible to see his actual expression and emotions.

One's gaze was as sharp and intense as a sword slicing through wood.

And the other's was as bright as the stream on a sunny March morning.

Neither of them was able to daunt the other.

"What do you mean?" In the end, Shane spoke up first.

"NC only has 2%. Because you didn't pay much attention to the Fuller family, I was able to get 12%. Now I'm giving them to you in exchange for cash. How does it sound?"

"Sure." Shane's dark aura faded away.

"Just give me 2% of the market price of NC stocks. The Fuller family's stock is my real meeting gift. The money I will receive is even less than a project with TNT. Hopefully, you won't ridicule me."

Shane replied with a "hmm" and said, "I'll ask someone to send you the money. Give me your card number now."

"Shall we go offshore instead?"

"You also have an international hot money identity?"

Rick smiled.

Shane raised an eyebrow and said, "I almost forgot that you are one yourself."

ick did not express any opinions about this matter, but his smile seemed to carry a deeper meaning.

After a series of operations, Rick left with Charlotte.

Charlotte's mind at this time was already filled with questions. After finally reaching a quiet place, she took a deep breath and said, "Brother! Rick!"

Her tone was a little spoiled, a bit reproachful, but mostly felt unfair.

She didn't expect that he didn't tell her about it, which put her in a very passive position, like a fool who didn't know anything.

Rick turned sideways with a gentle smile and took her by the wrist with his long fingers, pulling her into a snack shop by the street. "Here, I'll treat you to authentic dumplings. Boss, please give us two bowls of wonton and three servings of dumplings."

"Alright!"

"Three servings? Can you finish it?" Charlotte was doubtful.

"Of course." He had been missing these since a long time ago.

Shortly after the two of them sat down, the dumplings and wonton were served.

Rick began to explain the situation to Charlotte as they ate.

"I have his company's shares in my hands, and he should have known about this. This is also why he never actually did anything to obstruct us. Otherwise, with your previous relationship with him, just a word of "fiance" is enough for him to deal with me."

"I'm sorry..."

"You don't have to apologize. I'm glad you could say that." Rick poured himself a little vinegar and put the dumpling into his mouth after coating the bottom with a thin layer of vinegar.

"Cough." Charlotte felt a little uncomfortable.

She had been using him.

And he even said that he was happy to be used by her.

She felt really guilty.

"So Shane was very unhappy when he saw the shares, and he even looked like he was about to have a falling-out with me, but his rationality won over his anger. When he asked me what I meant, he was giving me a way out."

"In fact, I could have told him directly that I don't have enough funds and want to trade NC's shares for cash. However, if I do that, our positions will not be equal anymore. I am not willing to do so, so is he.

"The biggest reason why Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu were compared side by side is because both of them are strong. Moreover, the author of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms created a strange sense of predestined confrontation. People like this feeling of predestined confrontation. Therefore, both of us are not willing to bow down to each other, nor for the other to bow down to us."

Charlotte nodded her head repeatedly as she listened.
