Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 183

"I am Mr. Gibson's colleague. My name is Charlotte Emerson. You can call me Lottie." Charlotte answered politely.

Christopher's mother smiled and nodded to the two of them. "My name is Agnes, but people call me Ag. Use whichever name you prefer."

Next, it was time for Christopher, Zoe, and Agnes to catch up. It had nothing to do with Charlotte.

She didn't say much. Instead, she listened to one side.

Christopher's mother had a completely different character from him. It could be seen that she had been a straightforward and unrestrained person when she was younger.

From the conversation, Charlotte found out a few things—

First, Christopher's father was Theodore Fuller. He and Shane were half-brothers.

Secondly, after Agnes got married, her husband supported her a lot. He even supported her decision to become a nun. Now, he delivered meals here every day. The two of them could be said to be very loving.

Third, Agnes had thought very clearly about the issues of the past. It is God who gives and, therefore, God can take away. She said if you couldn't bear to look back on the past, then you shouldn't look back.

From what she could tell, Christopher taking revenge on Shane had nothing to do with his mother.

She should not have meddled too much in the matter of NC Company anyway.

As Charlotte thought about it, her thoughts drifted to an unknown place in the distance.

Soon, the time had come for dinner. Agnes's husband came to deliver her food, and the three people said goodbye to her.

They went to a restaurant next to the church. After Christopher ordered his meal, he didn't say a word more.

Zoe looked at him and then looked at Charlotte. She coughed softly.

"Mr. Gibson, let's talk plainly. The most important reason why I came to see you this time has to do with NC Company." Charlotte looked at Christopher.

"With the way Shane treated you, you're still thinking about helping his company?"

Charlotte was silent.

Christopher continued, "He is preparing for his wedding with Tiffany. Maybe in a short time, he will marry..."

"I have 20% of the shares of NC Company. If Shane wants it, I will give it to him unconditionally."

Christopher's pupils suddenly contracted.

Charlotte let out a bitter laugh and sighed. She looked at him seriously and said in a gentle tone, "Stop it. Don't go on like this. You won't win. If you tell Shane everything now, maybe you can still be friends."

"I'm afraid I can't."

"Mr. Gibson, you..."

"At this point, I can't stop anymore. The only way through is forward. I'm like a warrior who has pledged to die for the cause. This is my life. Since Theodore has died, I cannot get closure for my hatred. I can only take revenge on his son."

"But you won't win." Charlotte didn't understand.

20% of the shares was enough to determine the conclusion.

She could join the board of directors of NC Company and be equally matched with them. Or she could give the shares to Shane.

No matter which method she chose,

Christopher would lose for sure.

"Lottie, you kept saying that you will give the shares to Shane, but why are you allowing me to stand at this moment?"

At that moment, Charlotte was speechless.

It was true.

If Shane really wanted to deal with Christopher, he would ask directly to take back the shares.

"He thought that I wouldn't take NC Company down with me. He also thinks that he can smoke out the people supporting me and deal with them in one stroke."

"He's absolutely confident that he's blessed by the gods, while I'm just one of his many stumbling blocks. He doesn't need your trump card. One day, when he wants to restructure NC Company and has to determine the risks, he will have one less thing to think about."

"If I weren't doing everything above board now, I would expose the fact that you own shares. That would allow me to compete with Shane on the same level."

"I'm only looking for a fair fight."

A fair fight.

Christopher had lived an ordinary life. But what he wanted wasn't wealth. He was already a son of the Gibson Family. Although he wasn't well- treated, he still lived comfortably.

If he took over NC Company, the only superficial change would be that he would drive a 5 million dollar car rather than a 1 million dollar one.

However, the internal change would be his heart.

His heart was riddled with holes. He had to use the bones of those in NC Company to fill it.

"I have nothing to say." Charlotte stood up. "But I will use every method I can to stop you."

"Lottie, Shane already has someone else. Why don't you let yourself go?" Christopher looked at her retreating back and felt both sad.
