Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 403

"You guys are too slow at compiling. I can speed it up. All you need to do is send me the info," Shane said as he closed the book in his hands. "Also, I'm not reading. I'm preparing for the postgraduate exam."

"Post...graduate?" Charlotte almost thought that something was wrong with her hearing.

"Yes. I've been preparing for the postgraduate exam during this period of time."

Charlotte didn't know how she fell asleep. But she probably fell asleep after being startled by Shane.

When she woke up the next day, she was still in a daze.

By the time she arrived at Avery's house, Charlotte was still in a blurry state. On the one hand, she knew that Shane had quite a few degree certificates. On the other hand, she thought that Shane was taking a break from work during this period of time, but he ended up saying that he was preparing for the postgraduate exam. Charlotte was instantly bewildered when she heard that. She thought that Shane no longer cared about these things anymore.

No, it was not necessarily these things. It was...

Forget it. Her mind was in chaos, and she had no idea what she was thinking or doing.

Avery took his laptop and connected it to the Wifi. He took out a few small printers and placed them aside. "If you need to print something, just use this one."

"Alright." Charlotte took one and linked it to her laptop.

Shane took his laptop and connected it to his keyboard and mouse. After the screen lit up, he linked his laptop to the printer. He did not speak, as if he had shifted into work mode.

After a while, Peter and Zoe also came over. Rick and Kendall arrived half an hour later too. However, Kendall had never participated in these investigations. She was always gaming alone in the corner.

They had been busy for the whole day.

"I'm sleepy." Rick massaged his temples and said, "Avery, do you have coffee?"

"Do you want to nap for a while?" Avery was worried about him.

Before Rick could answer, Shane said lightly, "Sleep more when you can. You won't know when's the next time you'll open your eyes."

What?

Everyone was stunned. Rick blinked in shock before asking, "Shane, I think you meant, I won't know when's the next time I'll close my eyes."

"Open your eyes."

"Are you cursing me?" Rick said with a smirk. It was true that he had a good temper, but it didn't mean that he wouldn't care about being cursed. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to walk towards Shane.

"If you don't sleep, you won't be able to open your eyes in the future," Shane said calmly as he typed away on the keyboard.

"You!"

Rick stopped walking and sighed helplessly.

He didn't even know how to refute him. After all, no matter how his words sounded, Shane was only worried about him.

"It's time to sleep. It's already past 3 am." Avery looked at his watch and said, "I have plenty of rooms here. You can sleep in any one of them. They're all the same."

"All right."

Rick took Kendall upstairs.

"So they're sleeping together now?" It was Peter who spoke. Although it was not the right thing to discuss with your bosses, he was really curious

about it.

What stage in a relationship were Rick and Kendall at?

"Maybe." Avery sat down beside Peter and looked at his computer screen. "I just looked through the data you collected. Most of them are related to Christopher. Do you have any opinions?"

"Yes, I think this has something to do with Christopher. Since you all didn't want to investigate him, I did it." Peter said as he tapped on the backspace key, "Look at this data. Christopher will transfer a sum of money from NC every month to a public organization that's helping the fishpeople."

Avery nodded thoughtfully.

Charlotte's voice rang out from the other side, "It's not that I don't suspect Christopher. I just feel that if no one else is suspected of cooperating with him, then this incident must have something to do with him. If so, we'd better finish the Stevens Family as fast as we can. And about that, we will return to Peter's question."

Peter's question.

About Rick and Kendall.
