Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 210

Elaine's face twisted with anger when she heard these words. She wasn't as good as Charlotte?

She's not as good as that b*tch?

Now that she had everything, she's still not as good as her?

"Christopher, I admit that I used to like you but that doesn't mean that you can trample on my dignity!" Elaine picked up the file, opened the door and left.

Zoe, who had been silent the whole time, walked over to close the door. Then, she made another cup of tea for Christopher.

"Come here," Christopher ordered Zoe with his eyes closed.

Zoe was stunned. She walked to his side and stood straight. "Yes, Mr. Gibson."

"Find out who received Rick's shares then go see if Shane is still here."

"Mr. Gibson, Mr. Jane transferred his shares to Mr. Fuller. He had left 15 minutes ago."

"Huh?" Christopher opened his eyes.

Zoe pursed her lips and said coldly, "I've checked in advance. Five minutes ago, I received information from our spy in the Jane Corporation.

Ms. Emerson had invited Mr. Fuller to attend a press conference. Mr. Fuller should be there soon."

Christopher nodded with satisfaction. He took out his wallet from his pocket, pulled out a card and handed it to Zoe. "As I said before, I will not mistreat you."

"Thank you, Mr. Gibson." Zoe took it without hesitation.

"This whole situation has nothing to do with us. Tidy up and get ready to have lunch with me."

"Lunch? With you?"

"Is there something wrong?" Christopher asked with a smile.

Zoe shook her head. "No..."

She just didn't expect that Christopher would invite her to lunch.

Christopher got up and walked to the table. He picked up the table mirror and adjusted his tie as he spoke, "Don't be stressed out. It's my mom, she wants to meet you."

"I see." Zoe breathed a sigh of relief.

"What did you think it was?"

"No, I just felt it might not be appropriate for us to have dinner alone." I

There was a glimmer in Christopher's eyes and he shook his head with a smile.

She was the first woman to say that she liked him but made no attempt to pursue him at all.

If her interest in him was more passionate, he could use her relentlessly without a care.

However, she always kept a distance from him. He trusted her to do a good job but at the same time, he's a little cautious of her.

Zoe Watson...

Christopher turned around and looked at Zoe. She had the same posture and facial expression from before.

"It's not easy for you to stay by my side."

Zoe shook her head.

"Perhaps, we can take our relationship one step further," Christopher suggested as he slowly walked towards her.

Zoe took a step back subconsciously with a confused look in her eyes.

Christopher smiled and stretched out one hand. He bent down slightly like a gentleman and said, "It seems you are very defensive against me."

"Did you use the same deceitful face to fool Shane into being your friend and Elaine into being so obsessed with you?" Zoe was extremely calm. She slapped away his hand with a cold gaze.

"Deceitful? Zoe, look into my eyes, you'll see I'm genuine."

"I have seen how you treat people genuinely, Mr. Gibson. I know you're being deceitful now." Zoe lowered her head. "I'm going back to my office to change my clothes so I can meet your mother later."

Zoe left.

Christopher froze on the spot.

Zoe always talked about numbers and solved tricky problems based on her experience.

She was calm and rational. She had a vision for the future and was loyal at the same time.

Christopher initially thought she longed for romance like any other woman. Based on his understanding of women, he wouldn't have misread Zoe.

Maybe he hadn't seen through her.

However, he wasn't in a hurry. Anyway, the fish was already in the pond, there's no need to rush.

Christopher put down the mirror and put on his coat with a bright smile.

Deceitful.

It was the first time someone had said that about him.

There were many reporters and cameras on the scene of the press conference.
