Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 397

When Peter and Zoe reached the company, Charlotte just happened to be looking for the two of them. She noticed that Zoe's eyes were swollen, so she immediately walked up to her and asked, "What's wrong? Did Peter bully you?"

Zoe shook her head and lowered her head in silence. It seemed like she was frightened by Caleb. Peter had no choice but to ask, "Ms. Emerson, in your opinion, am I just a bad person who only knows how to bully Zoe?"

"She went out with you but came back with a somber expression. What should I expect?"

Peter looked at the passersby and said, "It's a little complicated. Let's go inside and talk about it." A lot of things should not be heard by others. It was not like anything would happen if they heard it because they wouldn't even understand it if they heard it. If they spread what they heard without understanding it, it would be hard for them to deal with it.

Charlotte realized that things might be a little serious, so she nodded to Peter and turned around to ask Zoe, "What about you? Do you want to join us or return to the office first?"

"I'll go back first," Zoe said.

"How about this? You can help me translate this document. The sooner you get it done, the better. It would be best if you could send it to me before you clock off." Charlotte handed the document in her hand to Zoe and instructed, "Translate them into Chinese and Arabic. I don't know Arabic, so you better prepare the Arabic translation first. We have to send it to the Middle East as soon as possible."

"Okay. I understand." Zoe took the document, suddenly filled with motivation.

As he watched Zoe walk away, Peter sighed and said, " At first, I was still thinking about how to comfort her for the rest of the day. I didn't expect that she would immediately feel better after Ms. Emerson handed her a document."

"Zoe is always dedicated like that." Charlotte smiled and said, "Next time, you can prepare some questions. It doesn't matter if they're related to the company or not. Give her instructions in the name of Shane or me, and she will definitely speak to you immediately."

"I got it," said Peter as he lowered his head. "I don't know her well enough. I..."

"You don't need to know her well enough. If you can understand her perfectly on your own, what's the purpose of her friends, bosses, staff, and companions?"

Peter was stunned. This time, he bowed respectfully and said, "Ms. Emerson, I understand now."

Charlotte patted him on the shoulder and said, "Back then, I couldn't understand either. But being together with Shane for a long time, I realized that I had to learn his way of doing things. Maybe it won't be effective, but at least we don't have to worry about making mistakes."

"I understand."

They arrived at Charlotte's office.

After Peter confessed everything to Charlotte and Shane, the two of them exchanged a glance. Then, Shane stood up and left the office.

Peter scratched his head in confusion and asked, "Where is Mr. Fuller going?"

"To look for Caleb."

"What?"

"Is it strange? We've already cooperated with Caleb, but he attacked Shane's employee. Don't you think we should look for him?"

Peter honestly hadn't thought of that. He thought that he would be able to fight Caleb or even kill him on his own.

He didn't expect that Shane could help him solve the problem. Or maybe, he just didn't want to trouble Mr. Fuller.

"I didn't want to bother you two at first, and I also thought that the problem has been solved..."

"The problem has indeed been solved, and you have also solved it very well. However, Shane and I must take a stand too." Charlotte was very serious. "Peter, I hope that when you face this kind of problem again in the future, you can inform us immediately."

"I understand, Ms. Emerson."

Charlotte nodded.

At that moment, Shane returned. He picked up his suit and said, "Caleb invited us to dinner. Please inform Rick and Kendall and ask Braden to bring Anne along."

Charlotte stood up and asked, "What about Peter and Zoe?"

"They have to come too."

"But to let Zoe see Caleb again..."

"She's going to feel worse if she keeps holding in her emotions."

"Okay, I understand."
