Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 260

"Are you alright?" Charlotte helped the person on the ground to get up.

"What's wrong with your friend? My family is not short of money. I want him to pay the price!" The man pushed the money away.

"It's like this. His family has some influence and may not just leave it be. Why don't we find a winwin solution?" Charlotte asked tentatively.

If she were to drag the Hart family back into this at this juncture...

It would be too chaotic.

It would be better to just let things go.

"Oh, it's not a big deal that I was beaten up. It's just that this is a public area. If you make trouble, you can't just settle things like this"

"I can tell from your words that you're from a respectable family. If we can have a private chat, that would be best. But him? He's used to getting his way in his own city. Look..."

The man looked at Avery, who was sitting at his table with his fists clenched. He looked as if he wanted to tear everything apart.

Forget it.

He would just take it as having met a rabid dog today.

"What about this, beautiful? I definitely won't be picking up that money. Get him to sign me a check. I want to see who his family is."

"Alright."

Charlotte walked over and asked Avery for a check.

Avery had previously been aggravated and he had heard the man curse him out, so he was naturally in a bad mood. Now that he had calmed down, he felt guilty toward him. He signed a check for 100,000 dollars and handed it to Charlotte.

After all, the man's injury seemed to be quite serious. If the matter was brought to the court, if the other party insisted on pressing charges, he might be charged with assault.

Impulsiveness really was the devil.

When the person received the check and saw that Avery was from the Hart family, he immediately changed his attitude. The unexpected turn of events stunned Charlotteirst, he apologized to Charlotte and Avery. Then, he left the cafe with his group. Before he left, he left a business card for Avery. You would have thought that he had been the one who had attacked Avery.

Charlotte was stunned by the unexpected turn of

events.

"I didn't know you were so influential in River City."

"So, my sister is still alive while Irena is dead," Avery answered coldly.

"Don't get mad, calm down for a bit, we..."

"Charlotte, I always felt that we were fated to meet. Just as I was about to meet you, it seemed like we could have met before the arranged date. The moment I saw you on the plane, I knew that we could talk business."

Charlotte was silent.

Avery suddenly got up and held her hand, staring straight into her eyes. "Even if you are no longer cooperating with me for the sake of the Jane family, the original intention of our cooperation has never changed. I still think we can work well together."

"You've gone too far." She wanted to pull her hand away.

"No, listen to me. Charlotte, I believe that this is fated. Today, I want to help you solve your difficulties, so I would like to propose that we cooperate together."

"We have been cooperating with each other for a long time. Can you let go of me now?" She was extremely annoyed.

Avery let go of her hand, but kept staring at her. "I want all the Stevens family members to disappear from the face of the earth. I want them gone from the gene pool and from society."

Charlotte didn't respond. She unconsciously reached to touch her wrist.

There was a bit of coldness in her fingers.

"I'll think about it."

"You can just create opportunities for me, you don't need to dirty your hands."

"I'll need to think about it," Charlotte said resolutely, "But we can deal with the Stevens family first. Don't worry, even if I don't have a way to be your weapon, I won't stop you from making a move. I know how much you hate them."

Avery was completely relieved.

What he feared the most was Charlotte's mercifulness. Just because she said that she wanted to deal with the Stevens family didn't mean that she would get rid of all of them.

If that was the case, he would find someone else to work with and not have to rely on her.

They were about to go their separate ways.

The two of them walked to their cars.

Avery's heart sank as he watched Charlotte get into the car.

"Charlotte."

Charlotte turned around to look at him. "Yes?"

"I have to see Zoe again in these few days to verify her relationship with Irena."

"Okay, no problem."

Charlotte sat in the car. She didn't know where to go for a while. Maybe she should go to the office to make some preparations, but she didn't feel like going for some reason.

She looked in the rearview mirror. Avery was still standing on the side of the road, as if he was thinking about something.
