Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 7

At a bar.

"Anne, is this safe to drink?" Charlotte was looking at the multicoloured cocktail with concern.

"Don't worry!" Anne gave her a reassuring look.

After learning that Charlotte had passed the interview, Anne proposed to celebrate. Charlotte couldn't resist Anne's coaxing, so she ended up coming along after putting Sheryl to bed.

Charlotte just never thought there'd come a day when she would be going to a bar. Although she had been abroad and had been exposed to the outside world, she was still a conservative woman.

She felt that bars were where bad things happened.

They took a seat by the counter with the dance floor right beside them. The DJ mixed up the music, bringing the atmosphere to the extreme.

"Anne, why are they staring at me?" After receiving looks out of nowhere, Charlotte felt uncomfortable and whispered to Anne.

Anne was a woman who had frequented bars and night clubs. She looked at their surroundings with nonchalance before she glanced at Charlotte. "They' re just curious about why there's a middle-aged woman in the bar."

She was referring to Charlotte's attire today. She had tried to persuade Charlotte to change out of her clothes, but Charlotte wouldn't listen!

"Oh, I actually think I look okay," Charlotte said indifferently. After all, she was a mother, so she was not thinking of dating anyone.

She picked up the cocktail beside her hand and took a sip.

When Charlotte realized that the cocktail actually tasted good, she ordered a few more in a row.

The clumsy way Charlotte drank caused Anne to burst into laughter. At the same time, she also attracted the attention of the people in the private room on the second floor.

"Chris, you have no idea how bad Shane's taste is. He actually recruited a forty-year-old woman today. How am I going to show face in the company from now on?"

Braden complained gloomily, but he was being careful with his volume. He was afraid that the people around the vicinity would hear him.

After hearing that, Christopher Gibson looked at Shane, who was savoring a glass of wine, and said with a smile, "His fiancee is the famous beauty anchor, okay?"

At the mention of Yuliana, Braden said with a look of approval, "Yes, she's hot. What a pity that she's taken."

His words caused Christopher's heart to skip a beat. He subconsciously looked toward Shane.

Although the trio grew up together and was known as the Three Musketeers of River City, their friendship was not deep enough for Braden to simply tease Shane.
