Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 251

"Are you afraid that I'll misunderstand?"

"Yes." Charlotte nodded her head resolutely.

"Do you want to reply to it, or should I?"

Charlotte thought for a moment, shook her head, and said, "I won't reply to him. When I was involved with you, I was already thinking that it would be unfair to Rick if I was with you, and it would be unfair to you if I was with Rick, so..."

"It would be unfair to me if you were with Rick?"

Charlotte had subconsciously blurted out the truth. Immediately, she covered her mouth with her hand and shook her head forcefully.

Shane, however, was in a good mood. The corners of his eyes were lifted a little as he said, "I didn't expect you to have such an awareness."

"What awareness?" Charlotte asked dumbly.

"Since you know that it's unfair to me if you're with him, why do you agree to the divorce?"

"You've already brought up the divorce. If I didn't agree, wouldn't it mean that I still have feelings for you? But the marriage was just contractual, so any feelings beyond that don't matter," Charlotte said. She had always assumed that this situation was

the truth.

In other words, it was not that she did not love him. In her view, she could not love him.

Shane was even happier when he came to this conclusion. He said, "Let me reply."

He suddenly seemed to be very happy.

Charlotte analyzed Shane's features and felt that the current him was much gentler than before. He didn't look as cold as he used to be.

Soon, Rick received a reply.

Charlotte: I'm not talking to you.

Such a brief reply was obviously not from Charlotte. Even if she wanted to reject him, she would include words such as Tm sorry' and so on. To Charlotte, refusing Rick was something that she found difficult.

Rick felt a pain in his chest, and he raised his hand to cover his heart.

Rick: Mr. Fuller?

Charlotte: Mmm.

Rick: Are you afraid to let me see her?

Charlotte: She asked me to respond.

Rick did not know how to respond to that.

Charlotte knew that if she had replied, she would definitely feel guilty. In order to prevent this guilt from affecting her relationship with Shane, she asked Shane to reply.

Impressive.

Charlotte was becoming more and more impressive.

Rick simply threw his phone on the sofa, picked up the wine on the coffee table and drank it all.

The alcohol burned his throat. After entering his stomach, the distinctive smell of alcohol rushed into his nasal cavity.

Rick shut his eyes and leaned into the sofa, allowing the alcohol to hit all his body's senses.

"Rick, why are you drinking again!" Kendall ran to his side and said, "You..."

"Get out." Rick pushed her away.

"I'm sorry, Rick." Kendall lowered her head.

Rick tilted his head to one side to look at Kendall. Kendall liked to pretend to be pitiful, using her wronged expression to get him to sympathize with her.

"You haven't done anything you need to apologize to me for. I should be apologizing to Charlotte. I did wrong by the law. I've done the most impulsive and regretful thing in my life by bailing you out so that you can cooperate with Christopher," Rick said, gritting his teeth.

He hated himself. But he hated Kendall more, and hated Christopher the most.

He didn't even understand why he would commit perjury just because of a few words by Christopher.

Originally, he thought that even if he gave false evidence, the court would certainly dismiss it, so it did not make much difference whether he did it or not. What was more, Christopher's words were reasonable. If Kendall was imprisoned, the Stevens Family would definitely come forward. By then...

As he was thinking about this, Kendall let out a scream. "How could this happen?"

Rick came to his senses and looked at her in displeasure. "What's wrong?"

"Tiffany was charged for first-degree murder and she will be sentenced to life. It seems that she wanted to kill Shane." Kendall handed her phone to Rick, her face pale. "Shane is now with Charlotte. If he can treat Tiffany like this, will he put me in jail for life too?"

There was a difference between first- degree murder and kidnapping.

According to the country's law, the maximum sentence for kidnapping was only about 25 years, and the highest sentence would be used rather than compounding them. What was more, Sheryl was now still alive and kicking, so Kendall would only be sentenced to a few years.

The key point of the matter was that, Tiffany must have been out of her mind, since she would definitely not be able to do anything to Shane.
