Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 452

The phone rang a few times before the person on the other side picked up.

Avery spoke first, "Hello, I'm Avery. Do you have time to meet me now?"

"What's the matter?"

"The fire is related to Shane. I have a few things to ask. If you don't come by yourself, I will send someone to get you, Mrs. Fuller." Avery's tone was respectful, but the bite in his words indicated otherwise. He just wanted to achieve his purpose.

Faina was silent for a long time. She sighed, "I don't know anything about this. Even if you found me, you wouldn't be able to get much from me."

"Oh? Everyone is dead except you, and you claim that you don't know a thing? Don't worry, I'm just simulating the situation to see who lit the fuse. You don't want Shane to be caught, do you?"

Faina fell silent again. Avery was not in a hurry and waited patiently for her reply.

Four or five minutes later, Faina finally opened her mouth and said, "Sure, we'll meet this one time. Where do you want to meet up?"

"I'll send someone to pick you up. Don't worry, you won't have to wait long."

"Okay, my address is—"

Before Raina could finish, Avery had hung up. She was just about to call him again. However, she received a message from Avery with her address on it. Raina's face fell instantly.

Only Shane knew where she lived. Avery actually managed to find out her address in such a short time. What kind of monster was he?

Meanwhile...

Avery held his phone and leaned against the wall. After thinking for a while, he decided to shoot a text to Charlotte, "Shane is seriously injured in my place."

"Take good care of him."

"Aren't you coming to see him?"

"There's no need."

Avery couldn't help but admire her apathy from the bottom of his heart. "You are not concerned about him at all? To do such a shocking thing, you must have a few screws loose."

Upon hearing this, Charlotte smiled and said, "There are still many other matters that I have to deal with."

"Is there anything more important than Shane?" "He has you to look after him. There are many things that can't be done without me. I will leave him under your care. I will compensate you handsomely after this is over."

"Why so formal?" Avery sighed.

"You'll like this reward."

"Will you wrap a bow on Irena and gift her to me?"

"Not quite."

Avery wanted to inquire further, but she had already hung up on him. He shrugged, he was accustomed to her and Shane's increasingly brusque behavior. But he was still perplexed. Despite knowing that Irena didn't intend to get back together with him, he still didn't know the reason.

Could it be that Charlotte had already known the reason?

Avery narrowed his eyes and rubbed his fingers on the phone. After a while, someone approached and said, "Mr. Avery, Raina is here."

"All right."

Avery arrived at the hospital's rooftop garden. Many patients were out taking a stroll, and Raina stood out as the only one dressed in casual wear. She looked nonchalant, sitting near a stream feeding bread crumbs to the fishes.

Avery walked to Raina's side and commented, "It

seems like you're in a leisurely mood."

"Shane didn't give me any details. The message was from Christopher."

"He should be more eager to see you die than Shane."

"To be precise, Christopher's mother called me with his phone. Christopher probably didn't want to let me off the hook so easily, but his mother was different. She didn't want him to commit a crime, so I thought this incident wouldn't be blown out of proportion."
