Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 159

Charlotte had never thought about it like that. She lowered her head and thought for a long time before shaking her head. "Grandma, you know Shane better than I do. He would never."

Mrs. Fuller Senior opened her mouth, but Shane had already turned around and left before she could say anything.

She sighed. "Lottie, you might regret this in the future. You might not have the chance to get back together with him again."

"I know."

Mrs. Fuller Senior had nothing more to say.

She and Charlotte left the solarium, but she didn't see Sheryl in the living room.

"Sheryl?" she asked aloud.

Ms. Laura came over and explained, "Sheryl was too tired. She went upstairs to sleep. I can take her to kindergarten tomorrow?"

Charlotte said helplessly, "Oh, this kid. That would be good too. She hasn't seen you in a long time. She really missed you. She can stay another day tomorrow."

"I like that idea. As for me, I will be in town for the time being. I'm not as active as I used to be and I can't afford to travel back and forth so much. I think you are busy as well. Why don't you just leave Sheryl to me?" suggested Mrs. Fuller Senior.

That...

After Charlotte found out that Sheryl was Shane's, she felt bad when it came to Mrs. Fuller Senior.

The old woman loved Sheryl and Sheryl was biologically part of this family too.

It was not a big deal for Charlotte to keep this secret, but to deliberately prevent them from seeing each other would be too disrespectful.

Charlotte sighed. "Grandma, if you're up for it and Sheryl wants to spend time with you, I'd be okay with that."

"You're a good person." Mrs. Fuller Senior felt gratified.

"Only, weren't you very healthy before?"

Ms. Laura sighed and said, "You don't know what happened. After you divorced Mr. Fuller, Mrs. Fuller Senior rushed home immediately. By the time she got back, you had already gone abroad and they had a big fight, so..."

Charlotte felt even guiltier. She clenched her fists tightly and said in a trembling voice, "Grandma, I'm sorry. I didn't expect things would turn out this way."

If she knew that Mrs. Fuller Senior had rushed back, she would have to explain everything properly before leaving.

At that time, she felt terrible and only wanted to escape from it all as soon as possible.

"It's all in the past now." Mrs. Fuller Senior had no intention of pursuing the matter. "Instead of blaming you, I might as well blame my grandson for not respecting me."

"Grandma..." Charlotte's heart ached.

"If you really feel sorry for me, you can go upstairs to rest. Tomorrow you can have breakfast with me."

Charlotte hesitated for a moment before agreeing to this request. This time, she definitely couldn't sleep in Shane's room, so she asked Ms. Laura for the keys to another room.

However, she was unable to fall asleep. After taking a shower, she changed into some pajamas and slippers. She went to the living room for some water. After drinking a few cups, she still did not feel sleepy at all. She simply took out her computer and started working in the living room.

She only turned on a weakly shining standing lamp.

The environment was dim and the sofa was soft. In the living room, there were wooden walls and the front door. Through the French window, she could see a sky full of stars.

Some people lived their whole lives without ever experiencing this kind of peacefulness.

Therefore, having money was really a good thing.

Charlotte rubbed her temples to try and made her mind sober. She focused her attention on the computer in front of her.

Her recent project was a collaboration with the Brightshine Group. They had to create a brand electric toothbrush whose performance was better and more durable than that of all the other models on the market.

Rick had said that it was better to focus on e-commerce for the Asia Pacific Region.

In other countries, online shopping was no longer a new market.

It was only five or six years ago that it had become publicly available here. On the surface, the market was already saturated, but in fact, there was still a huge gap on the market.

This was especially true for the smaller cities. The residents lived a good life with reasonable salaries, but they wouldn't spend money excessively.

Rick wanted to get money from these people.

The best way to entice these people was to produce cheap but high-quality products.

Another problem was how to deal with the shipping and logistics.

Rick had been busy dealing with the shipping routes recently, while she was in charge of the products.

"Oh, the products," she lamented internally.

Charlotte bit her finger.

"Why aren't you sleeping?"

The light around her dimmed.

Charlotte raised her head subconsciously and smiled at Shane. "You're not sleeping either, Mr. Fuller."

"Call me by my name."

"Isn't it a little inappropriate at this point?" She said with embarrassment.

"If you don't call my name, I won't answer."

Charlotte found it funny but felt very helpless. "Shane, are you a child?"
