Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 168

Just as Charlotte finished speaking, she felt her tongue go numb.

Because of the cold.

Shane's face sank instantly, and the look he gave her was cold to the bone.

If it weren't for the fact that it went against the principles of science, she would have assumed that her body temperature had dropped.

"Disgusting?" His thin lips barely moved, but Charlotte heard the word clearly nonetheless.

"I... I am going upstairs to rest."

Charlotte was so frightened that she turned around and ran. This time, her speed was so fast that Shane didn't have any time to react.

When she got back to her bedroom and closed the door, her heart was still beating wildly.

When she went downstairs again, Mrs. Fuller Senior and Sheryl had already come back.

The main reason was that she was hungry.

Ever since she took that medicine, she had been constantly hungry.

"Lottie, how are you feeling?" When Mrs. Fuller Senior saw her going downstairs, she immediately brought her to her side and patted her hand gently.

"I'm fine, Grandma." Charlotte didn't retract her hand and obediently sat down beside her.

"Don't always hide your problems. If worse comes to worst, come and live at my house. I will take care of you and Sheryl, okay?" Mrs. Fuller Senior smiled and said the latter half of the sentence to Sheryl.

Sheryl nodded hard and said, "Yes! We can go and live and eat at Great-grandma's. She said that there are very pretty flowers and birds at her house."

Charlotte couldn't help laughing. "Okay, I'll take you to Great-grandma's house one day."

"That's great!"

Mrs. Fuller Senior patted the back of Charlotte's hand in a pleased manner. "Wouldn't it be great if you were my granddaughter-in-law? Even if this child isn't of the Fuller family's bloodline, just her character alone is enough to make me fond of her."

Charlotte was stunned. She subconsciously looked at Shane, who stood opposite her. Shane was holding a cup of coffee in his hand, half leaning against his desk. His black shirt sleeves were partially rolled up to his elbow. His gaze fell on the scenery outside the window.

He said that he had someone to take care of.

She knew it was Tiffany Allen.

Charlotte put away the sour emotions in her heart and said with a forced smile, "Grandma, I might not be able to call you this in the future. I'm going to be someone else's wife."

"Is that Jane child? That child isn't bad, he..."

"Aren't you going to dinner yet?"

Shane interrupted them coldly.

Charlotte immediately lowered her head.

Mrs. Fuller Senior harrumphed coldly. "How dare you interrupt me!"

Shane put down his coffee cup and rubbed the space between his eyebrows. He said helplessly, "Grandma, you should sleep before half-past ten. It's not good for your health if you don't eat now."

Since his tone was still respectful, Mrs. Fuller Senior waved her hand and stood up. "Lottie, help me up. Don't worry. As long as I'm alive, neither you nor your daughter will have to worry about being bullied by a Fuller!"

This was a very serious statement.

It was obvious that Mrs. Fuller Senior really loved Sheryl.

Charlotte was very grateful. She clutched Mrs. Fuller Senior's hand tightly. "Grandma, I only have you as my grandmother. If there is anything I can do for you, I will."

"Oh? What if Shane..."

"That isn't something within my range of ability." Charlotte was very embarrassed.

"I know, you are just trying to make me happy." Mrs. Fuller Senior sighed. Even her legs and feet felt weak.

"As long as Shane wants to, I would definitely marry him again." Charlotte was shocked.

Mrs. Fuller Senior straightened her back instantly and said, "Sheryl, let's go to dinner."

"Okay!"

As Charlotte watched the two of them holding each other's hand as if they were about to 'run', Charlotte's lips twitched.

Mrs. Fuller Senior was too cute.

Charlotte was stunned for a moment before she managed to catch up to Mrs. Fuller Senior's pace. Before she could even take a couple of steps, a large, powerful hand landed on her shoulder.

Shane spat coldly, "Disgusting?"

Every strand of hair on Charlotte's body stood up as she shook her head forcefully, "I didn't think before I spoke."

"Use your brain and think through what you should ask and say to me."

"There's nothing I want to ask. I've said all that I should have said. I admit that I shouldn't have called you disgusting. But if you want to take care of others, don't come and bother me. If you do this..."

"Alright."

Shane interrupted Charlotte with that one emotionless word.

Although he felt a little heartache at saying it.

But before the situation could become worse, she...

She had chosen to hide her feelings.
