Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 349

Kendall left with Rick. She was still thinking about what Charlotte had said. After a long while, she finally asked in a soft voice, "Rick, did Charlotte mean that if I don't stay by your side, I would bring bad things to you?"

"That's not what she meant, but the idea is more or less the same," Rick replied.

What Charlotte really meant was that he would eventually become enemies with the Stevens Family. If Kendall wasn't determined enough to stand on his side, in the end, Kendall wouldn't be able to keep either the Stevens family or Rick. However, if Charlotte said what she really meant, her words would upset Kendall.

Therefore, Charlotte tried to explain to Kendall in simple words that as long as she didn't stay beside him, he would lose everything. With this influence over her, Kendall would be more considerate when she took action.

"I don't quite understand, but I'll try my best to listen to you," Kendall said.

"All right."

Rick didn't say much. His gaze was far away. He, who had always been calm, was very enraged at the moment. Kendall followed him closely. She felt like she couldn't breathe. She kept her head low, not daring to speak. She knew very well that it was her brother and father's fault this time. It had nothing to do with Rick and the others. These were all unexpected tragedies.

But what could she do?

Just like what Charlotte had said, she could only stay beside Rick and put herself in his shoes.

As for other things, not to mention that she couldn't do them, even if she could, how should she start? And what right did she have to do them?

Kendall's mind was getting more and more chaotic.

The next day.

After Charlotte scheduled the time with Anne, she went over with Shane. However, not long after they arrived, Shane left when he received a phone call. Charlotte was not surprised. After all, he had always been busy. Most of the time, he didn't even have time to explain to her before leaving.

"Aren't you worried?" Watching Shane leave like that, Anne couldn't help but ask her best friend, "What if it was a woman who called?" "What can I do?" Charlotte responded with a casual attitude, "If something's going on between him and that woman, then there's already a problem. If there is no such woman, what can I do? If there's no problem, it would be meaningless for me to do anything."

Anne was speechless. She could only give her a thumbs-up and said, "If most women had such a broad mind like yours, the Earth would have been united long ago."

Charlotte cracked up. "Anne, a lot of men call me too. If I have to develop a relationship with all of them, I won't even have the energy to call you. I'm already so busy, so can you imagine how busy he would be?."

Anne could accept this explanation. It was well-known that Shane was a busy man.

But even so, she still pursed her lips and said, "I still think that you can't let your guard down just because you have a child. You see, Shane used to have a lot of women around him, and that Tiffany too."

At the mention of Tiffany, Charlotte was silent for a few seconds. But then she shook her head helplessly and replied, "Such a situation like that is unnecessary to discuss. Well, stop talking about me now. Let's continue our tour." "Okay, okay, okay. You won't listen to what I say anyway."

"It's not that I don't want to listen," Charlotte thought in her head.

Charlotte knew what she had to do. She couldn't treat Shane like how other girlfriends treat their boyfriends. She didn't know how to act cute or argue with him. First, it was because Shane's status was not equal to hers. Second, it was because she knew Shane too well.

Ever since Heidi's incident, she had understood these two things.

After Charlotte helped Anne to choose everything she needed, it was already dark. But the most important detail had yet to be finalized.

They might still need a little bit of time.

The Jane Family and the Collins Family were relatively rich. The wedding was so urgent that they didn't have enough time to buy everything. So, each family could only use the fastest and often most expensive way to solve the problem.

After Charlotte and Anne parted ways, they returned home. At first, Charlotte thought that Shane wasn't home yet. But as soon as she entered the house, she saw his shoes placed in front of the door.

She changed into her home slippers and put down her bag before walking towards the study.

"Shane?"

Charlotte pushed open the door of the study. Shane was half-leaning against the door, with a Bluetooth headset in his ear. He held a document in one hand and placed his index finger on his lips with his other hand, signaling her not to speak.

Charlotte immediately didn't dare to speak. She lowered her head and walked away from him, jogging toward the bedroom.

Shane looked at her from behind and smiled softly. Then he went back to the study and closed the door.
