Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 171

Sheryl shook her head instantly and said, "No, I can't. My Great-grandma is not feeling well, so I have to accompany her."

"Alright then. When Sheryl misses Mommy, I'll come pick you up, okay?" Rick smiled and brought out a huge lollipop as if he was performing a magic trick.

"Okay!" Sheryl nodded hard and reached for the candy.

"You can't eat too much."

"Got it." Sheryl grabbed the lollipop.

This lollipop had looked very big in Rick's hand. Now, in Sheryl's embrace, it was like a small toy. You could hardly tell that it was candy at all.

Charlotte hadn't expected that the question that she didn't dare to ask would be settled by Rik with a few words.

Actually, she also felt that it was more appropriate for Sheryl to stay with Mrs. Fuller Senior. But she was too ashamed to leave Sheryl behind, much less to take her away.

Mrs. Fuller Senior smiled as she moved back and forth. "Alright, go back and do your work." Charlotte said, "Grandma, I'll come back to see you in a couple of days."

Mrs. Fuller Senior nodded.

Charlotte lowered her head and walked through the door.

Rick raised his eyes and looked at Shane for a moment. Then he bent over with a smile and said, "Mr. Fuller, I'm leaving now. I sincerely hope that there will be no hard feelings between us."

After Rick left, Braden finally couldn't help but ask, "Why is he so good to you? He was nearly prostrating himself before you!"

Shane frowned and shook his head.

His understanding of Rick was very little.

"You still don't understand?" Mrs. Fuller Senior snorted. "He's trying to curry favor with Charlotte, how could he not be nice to Shane?"

"Grandma, why do you have to be nice to Shane to curry favor with Charlotte?" Braden was very curious.

"You don't understand women. Rick does. The better you treat a woman, the more she can't leave you. But if you push her away, even if you want to test her, you will only push her away to another man."

Braden scratched the back of his head.

He couldn't understand the twists and turns in this lesson at all.

Mrs. Fuller Senior continued to explain, "So the first step to make Lottie like him is to let Lottie think that he is inferior in front of other men, especially Shane."

"Why?" Braden was even more confused.

"Rick's way of doing things is to confuse Charlotte. She would think that he was trying to curry favor with me because of her." Shane had completely understood Rick's strategy at that moment.

Even if he argued with Rick, or even fought him physically.

Rick wouldn't make even a sound. Of course, he wouldn't beg for mercy either. He would only straighten his back and say something like, "Why did you have to do that, Mr. Fuller?"

Charlotte's image of Rick would be a humble one. Although he was in a high position, he would seem like a friendly and magnanimous person.

And he, Shane, would become an unreasonable villain.

Braden suddenly came to a realization. He nodded solemnly. "Rick is amazing."

"Grandma, I'll go back to the office now." Shane ended the topic.

"After you go back, think about what I told you."

Shane didn't react and turned to leave.

Braden wanted to go with him, but was stopped by Mrs. Fuller Senior. He stopped and smiled ingratiatingly, "Grandma, what's wrong?"

"Tell me, where did that Tiffany Allen come from?"

Braden touched the back of his head. He pulled his hair and said with a grimace, "Grandma, I wouldn't dare to interfere in Mr. Fuller's business, would I?"

"It sounds like you don't want to come to my house anymore in the future?"

"Oh! Then I'll tell you everything I know."

Other than Heidi, Braden didn't know the specific situation. He just mentioned that Shane had gone to his engagement party with Tiffany.

Mrs. Fuller Senior raised her hand and waved it. "Got it. You can go home too."

Braden immediately slipped away.

What a joke.

He would rather deal with a hundred Shane Fullers and then die on the spot than to handle one Mrs. Fuller Senior.

The older generation was even more terrible than the plague!

Braden rushed out of the ward and found that Shane had not left. He was so shocked that his back was covered with a layer of cold sweat.

"How did you manage to woo Anne?"

"Oh, what?" Braden scratched his head.

Shane repeated what he had said.

Braden came to his senses and asked in confusion, "You want to woo Tiffany?"

Shane glared at him.

"Woo Charlotte? Keep clinging on to her. That's how I wooed Anne. They are besties, and their personalities are about the same."

Cling to her?
