Charlotte was stunned for a moment. Her hand froze on the doorknob.
"But I don't need to remind you what price you have to pay."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man tossed his phone to the coffee table.
He was very tall, and the flinging movement of his hand was fast and powerful. When the phone hit the table's glass surface, it broke, and the glass table also cracked.
Charlotte was surprised and the door opened.
Shane was leaning to one side. His gaze fell on her without any heat. She immediately lowered her head and went into the suite, going upstairs without saying a word.
After a while, Charlotte heard a noisy noise from downstairs. She was curious, so she went out of the bedroom, stood by the bannister and looked down.
The hotel staff had come to replace the coffee table, and they apologized to Shane the whole time, saying that they had accidentally purchased an inferior batch of coffee tables.
Were they idiots?
Charlotte supported her head and watched. If she could, she would have gotten herself some popcorn.
This scene was too similar to a plot in a drama.
At a glance, one could tell that the coffee table had been smashed.
Even took Shane's feelings into consideration, this coffee table was at least tens of thousands of dollars. All the furniture in this room cost more than ten thousand dollars.
Shane had broken it so easily. And now they did not even want him to pay for it?
It was these spineless people who made the capitalists so shameless.
After the people downstairs replaced the coffee table, Charlotte returned to her bedroom.
It was so boring. In the end, they hadn't made Shane pay for it.
Because of her physical condition, Shane didn't let Charlotte participate in too many activities.
She could only stay in her room and rest. It would have been fine to be alone, but Shane was with her.
Charlotte used her computer for a while, then looked up at Shane, who was sitting next to her.
He was reading a book. There were many foreign words that she could not read.
She pursed her lips and turned back to continue to work on her computer.
However, she had finished watching all the videos that she needed to watch. In order to let her have a good holiday, Rick had even changed the password of the company's database. She couldn't even enter the internal network, let alone read any information.
So boring.
Charlotte peeked at Shane once again.
Needless to say, a certain someone even more beautiful than a sculpture. His eyes were as deep as the abyss, and the lines of his eyes were hard and clear.
It was said that those double- lidded eyes were the most attractive, but Charlotte felt that if his face was matched with doublelidded eyes, it might become very strange. This pair of eyes was better-looking.
"Yesterday, you were looking at my abs. Today, you're looking at my eyes. Does Mr. Jane refuse to let you check him out?"
"If you don't want me to look, then I won't keep looking. Why did you have to mention Rick? He never provoked you."
Rick had taken away his woman. Was that called not provoking him?
Shane flipped a page with his long fingers. He couldn't be bothered to look at Charlotte any longer.
Charlotte was provoked by his annoyance. She became a little bold. She stared at him, looking at his nose, and then his mouth.
Finally, her gaze fell on his suit.
Her face suddenly turned red.
She imagined some naughty images.
She decided not to look anymore. She patted her face and turned her head to focus on her computer.
"What's going on between you and Rick?" The man asked.
"Why?" she asked, vigilant.
"I'm curious. I want to know what happened to my woman and how it was stolen by another person."
"Woman?"
"Slam!" Charlotte closed the computer suddenly. "Don't you have any respect for people?"
"I protected you a lot of times in the company," Shane said meaningfully.
Charlotte instantly lost her temper.
It was true that this man had helped her a lot, even after the divorce.
While she was in a daze, Shane suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled her into his embrace. Charlotte didn't have any chance to struggle before she was sat on his lap.
She screamed, "What are you doing?"
"Reading."
Did he need to hug her while reading?
Charlotte tried to struggle, but it didn't work.
After she stayed sitting against Shane for a while, Shane suddenly reached out and pointed to a line of words, "Can you read this?"
Charlotte shook her head.
"I'll teach you."
