Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 37

It was 11 o’clock at night.

Charlotte didn’t feel the slightest bit lethargic as she rolled around in bed. The image of Sheryl having fun with Shane earlier during the day kept resurfacing in her mind.

Sheryl' s pure smile reflected so much happiness. It was evident that she was having such a good time.

As she looked back on this, Charlotte felt a little rueful.

She knew for a fact that Sheryl had always longed for fatherly love. Still, she never mentioned wanting a father as she was worried about hurting her mother's heart. Even when other children teased her, she would silently put up with it alone.

Sheryl' s obedience and pragmatism only made Charlotte feel more ashamed of herself as a mother.

"Beep beep!"

The phone she had put aside buzzed. The notification immediately pulled Charlotte back to her senses.

Wiping away her tears, she picked up her phone from the bedside table. It was a message from Anne.

'Lottie, are you asleep?’

'Nope. What’s the matter?" Charlotte replied.

'How was the day with Shane? From what I can see, Sheryl likes him an awful lot.’

'Yeah, she does. She told me today that she likes him very much.’

Once this message was out, it took a long while before a new message came in.

'Lottie, have you noticed that Sheryl bears considerable resemblance to Shane? Especially those eyebrows and that nose of hers, they look exactly like Shane's. Say, do you think he could be...’

Upon reading the message, Charlotte distinctly felt her heart sink.

In fact, she had already noticed their alikeness right after Braden's statement.

Still, how could this be possible?

Charlotte speedily typed in a reply.

'The probability of this happening is too minimal, perhaps completely impossible. How could he be Sheryl's father?'

Not too long later, she received Anne’ s response. 'You're right. Shane Fuller is known for his tendency to steer clear of females.

Besides that female anchor, there are literally no other women by his side.’

Charlotte couldn't help but let out a giggle when she read the message. To think Shane was such a faithful man.

Just as she was about to put down her phone, another notification came in for a piece of financial news.

She unwittingly read the title.
