Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 249

"Forget it, it's up to you." Shane closed his eyes.

"We don't seem to be married or engaged. I can't call you my boyfriend, since we haven't dated. If we're not friends, what are we?"

It was rare for Charlotte to tell Shane what she was thinking without any reservations.

Even if they were very close, even if he was like a god in her heart, most of the time she was unwilling to tell him the truth. She thought that, the more she said, the more he understood her. That might not be a good thing for her.

Shane frowned slightly.

He only cared that she had said that they were friends. Beyond that, there was really no solid conclusion when it came to what kind of relationship they had.

"What is dating?"

Shane's question confused Charlotte.

She had never been in a relationship before, although the one with Rick sort of counted. But she did not really like Rick at all, and she had only agreed to be with him out of a sense of guilt and responsibility. So, strictly speaking, she had not been in a relationship with him, and basically had no experience with men.

Under these circumstances, Shane was asking her what love was...

Charlotte bit her lip and said, "In my opinion, love is a clash of personalities between two people. You care about me and care about you. Then you and I will blend our emotions and personalities together. During the continuous blending process, we seek to be together perpetually."

Shane was an academic genius, and he was also well-versed in the liberal arts. But at this moment, he could understand every single word that Charlotte said. He could understand what she was trying to convey. But somehow, he just couldn't get it.

It was funny.

It was like saying one plus one equals two. He knew that one plus one equals two, and he also understood how arithmetic worked, but why did one plus one equal two?

Shane remained silent.

"Miss, how old are you now?" The paramedic who was applying first aid couldn't help but ask.

I'm 23 years old this year. I'm almost 24," Charlotte replied.

When Shane heard her state her age, he opened his eyes and stared blankly. The look he gave her became very complicated.

It was a new year, and she was only 24 years old.

It also meant that when she had Sheryl, she had only been 18 years old. When she had just become an adult, she had already given birth to the child...

During this time they had spent together, Shane gradually forgot about her age. In his opinion, her mentality and behavior were very mature, but occasionally she would show a childlike side.

"You're 24 years old, but you're so knowledgeable about love. Actually, some of what you said is right, but some are completely wrong," the paramedic said with a smile.

"Would you mind elaborating?" Charlotte replied with a smile.

Although she did not feel that her logic was faulty.

"Just now you said that love is a collision of two people's personalities. But have you ever thought about that one day, when you become more familiar with each other and the other person has changed? For example, a man likes you because of your appearance. If a man only likes your appearance, it means that he will abandon you because of a more beautiful woman in the future. If he does not abandon you because of such a person, it means some aspect of the other's personality has changed."

"That..." Charlotte was stunned.

She didn't expect that a random paramedic in the ambulance could make such an impressive speech.

She could not help thinking about it.

In the end, she said in a low voice, "But the rest of him is perfectly compatible with me. It's completely suitable to me."

"Do you mean that, only when you meet the right person, will you like them?"

"I... "

Charlotte was stunned again.

If they were suitable, she would like them. Then Rick was undoubtedly the most suitable, but in fact, the person she liked was...

Charlotte couldn't help but look at Shane. She suddenly realized that if she thought about someone she liked, her gaze would fall toward Shane without hesitation and she would say his name.

That was right.

She seemed to, really, really like Shane.

"If that person suits you and is who you like, then congratulations. But if you meet a person that you like but may not be suitable for you, you shouldn't let him go either." The paramedic revealed a very cute smile. "Of course, this is just my personal understanding."

This person had a very deep understanding of this matter.

On the way to the hospital, Charlotte was thinking about what the paramedic said.

The ambulance stopped at the emergency department of the hospital.

Tiffany did not have much strength after taking drugs, so Shane's wound was not deep. After it was stitched up, Shane could even get out of bed and walk immediately. He only had to change the dressings and apply some medicine. And he couldn't get the wound wet.

Shane stood by the side of the sickbed as he did up his buttons. His long and slender fingers were very fair under the light. Charlotte looked at his hands for a moment and blanked out.
