Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 230

Shane took out the bento from the oven and said, "She's useful to me."

There are a lot of people who are useful to you. Well then, about Tiffany..."

"Have you eaten yet?"

"Huh?"

"You look like you have a lot of spare time."

Cole scratched the back of his head awkwardly and said, "Well, Mr. Fuller, good night. I'm going to do my work now."

Before Shane could respond, Cole ended the phone call without hesitation.

He didn't want to be sent to Africa.

Recently, a person had released videos of him sending his staff to Africa on several online video platforms. After that, a few CEOs from the same industry started to imitate his practice.

Although businesses in Africa were not as lucrative as before, it was still easy to reap some extra money by setting up a small company.

He didn't want to be thrown there to earn extra money. He wanted to retire in River City.

Shane glanced at his phone after Cole hung up. He then picked up the bento, sat down in the living room, and turned on the TV.

Two days left until the bidding.

He didn't know what kind of surprise would Charlotte give him this time, or perhaps, she might need his help?

It was getting more and more interesting.

He looked down at the bento in his hands.

For some unknown reason, the rice had suddenly lost its aroma.

Charlotte had been working overtime for two consecutive days.

She set an alarm to remind herself to go to bed at 11 pm and wake up at 6 am the next day to wash up and put on makeup.

After confirming that all the data were correct, she left home and went to the company.

There were fewer representatives on her team. Except for Zoe, there was only another intern. He wore a pair of glasses and looked quite young and shy.

"Is everything ready?" Charlotte asked.

"Ready," the intern answered.

I'm all set too." Zoe took out a USB and handed it to Charlotte. "This is what you mentioned last night. The backup information that you asked me to prepare is all inside the USB."

Charlotte took it and nodded at her. "You've worked hard."

Zoe smiled and shook her head. What kind of hard work was that?

It was nothing compared to the negotiation speech that Charlotte had been painstakingly preparing for the past few days. Zoe only had to copy and paste the information into a file.

The three of them departed to their destination.

It was only seven in the morning, but a huge crowd had already arrived at the hotel lobby.

When the three of them walked into the conference room, the first people they saw were two men in suits. They looked ordinary, but the suits they wore were quite expensive.

"Ms. Emerson, this is Morgan Greendale, a budding star in the industry." The young intern took out his notebook and said, "All of the people from their company were born with a silver spoon, and they belong to the same social circle. But they don't have much knowledge, so there is no need to be afraid of them."

Charlotte nodded and led the two of them to their

seats.

The intern gently nudged his glasses and spoke again, "Ms. Emerson, the person dressed in a wine red suit who's sitting opposite to us is Nicholas Lyle. He is the person in charge of his company and has a certain status in the industry. I heard that he only took part in this bidding because of NC. It's clear that he has an ulterior motive."

"You know them all?" Charlotte was amazed.

It would be a coincidence if he knew a group of people. But it directly proved him competent for knowing two groups of people.

And he even knew why they were here.

Although she said that she wanted to know more about the other companies, her main attention was still fixed on Jane Corporation. After all, they were their biggest opponent this time.

The young intern smiled shyly and said, "I saw a lot of people studying Jane Corporation, so I did some research on the other companies with a few close colleagues of mine instead. It's a pity to waste human resources."

"You did a great job. When you go back, let Zoe know your name, as well as those who researched with you. I will let her hand your names over to the human resources department and the finance department to award you all bonuses."

"Mr. Emerson, you're such a kind- hearted and beautiful person."

Charlotte was speechless.

At first, she thought that this young man did a pretty good job. But when he said that, she instantly felt queasy.

She enjoyed being flattered, but his words didn't sound like a sincere compliment in today's society. Instead, it made her feel a little awkward.
