Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 411

"I don't understand. What on earth do you think of me? I don't have an intimate relationship with you and I'm not your friend. I don't understand. Why didn't you treat me like this when you were dating me?"

"Do you want to go with me or are you testing me?"

"I..." Kendall choked on her words.

Rick smiled and approached her. He opened her arms wide and said, "Should I say, 'Kendall, welcome back. Would you please continue to care about me?"'

Kendall's nose twitched. She mumbled, "Who cares about you? Who wants to come back?"

"Don't you want it?" Rick took another step forward and said. "You've clearly seen through me. Don't you want to give yourself a chance to change?"

He couldn't fall for her, but perhaps she had a way to do it?

He originally wanted to leave and hide from her for a few days so that he and she could think more clearly. But he did not expect that she was more courageous than he had imagined. If she could say that she wanted to go with him in such a situation, then he also wanted to keep her by his side and find some light in this pointless life.

Kendall looked at his arms, hesitated for a moment, then moved forward and hugged him. "Let me say it first, I haven't forgiven you, and I don't want to be your girlfriend. I just think you are too pitiful."

"Okay." Rick kissed her between her eyebrows. "Kendall, I've been waiting for you all the time. Other than you, there may be no one else in the world who can make me so troubled."

"I know. I made you troubled. I shouldn't have done it."

"No." Rick's lips traveled downward. "I want to prove that I don't hate you, Kendall."

Rick had always been good at flirting. Kendall was immediately intoxicated in his embrace. She wanted to melt into his arms. However, Rick spoke up again. "But now, we can't do anything. You're still hurt. Kendall, believe me that I don't hate you. I just didn't think about it properly that day. I wasn't ready. I hate others forcing me to make a decision."

"I'm sorry, I had a problem that day too..." she said in a small voice.

"I know that you have suffered a lot by my side. I won't let you suffer in the future."

Kendall sighed.

She did not forgive him.

How did she end up in his arms again?

Perhaps, it was really her destiny that she liked Rick.

Charlotte found out about Rick and Kendall early in the morning on the same day.

She handed the phone to Shane and said, "I really didn't expect Rick to be so slow. It took so many days for him to finally settle Kendall. It's good that they have reconciled. This way, we don't have to worry that Kendall will be caught by the Stevens family."

"Alright, how's the Stevens family situation?" Shane didn't care about gossip at all.

It didn't matter to Shane who Rick was with. It would be fine as long as it was not Charlotte.

"It's not going very well. It's more difficult to deal with than we expected. Their overseas branch retaliated against the Jane Corporation. We miscalculated..." Charlotte sighed. "I didn't expect Ryland to discover that Rick and Avery were partners. I don't know where they found out about this." "It doesn't matter. Losing the Jane Corporation is a good thing." "After the Jane Corporation is lost, Rick should have more free time. It's indeed a good thing for him that the domestic branch can come out independently without being sucked in. But it's not good for him after all."

"He still cares about his reputation?"

That was true.

Rick no longer needed his reputation.

Charlotte hesitated for a moment, then finally opened her mouth. "Shane, there is something else."

"What's that?"

"If the Jane Corporation is lost, should we help Rick?"

"No."

"Why is that?"
