Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte)

Chapter 169

Charlotte didn't mind drinking from Mrs. Fuller Senior's cup. But the fact that Shane had drunk it made her heart beat fast.

She could even smell the faint, familiar smell of his cologne.

Wasn't this equivalent to... an indirect kiss?

Charlotte turned her head and took a gentle sip.

She didn't know what the drink tasted like. It was a bit sweet and a bit sour.

However.

The scent of Shane lingered in her nose and mouth for a long time.

After watching the movie, Sheryl was jumping about happily, waving her hands and feet as she talked about the plot with Charlotte.

All of a sudden, there was another person in front of them. Sheryl bumped into the person.

"I'm sorry." Sheryl was frightened and quickly apologized.

"Take better care of your kid!" The man turned around and pointed at Charlotte. "Do you know how expensive my clothes are? Honestly! I shouldn't have come to watch movie today and run into the lots of you. It's all your fault!"

The man was so angry that the woman before him didn't dare to speak.

A cold glint flashed across Charlotte's eyes. "How I take care of my child has nothing to do with you. What's wrong? Where are your clothes dirty? Send me an invoice and I'll compensate you accordingly."

"What do you mean? Do you mean that my clothes are not dirtied?"

"Yes."

"Take a look. What is this?" The man pointed at his crotch playfully. "Come closer and see if it's dirty or not!"

With a twist of her hand, Charlotte poured her drink onto his body. At the same time, she threw the cup into the trash can next to her and said, "Please send me an invoice. I'll compensate you accordingly."

"Are you crazy? You f*cking..."

"I've already said that I'll compensate you accordingly. Can't you understand what I'm saying?" With another twist of her hand, Charlotte took hold of Sheryl's drink as well. "Or do you want another cup?"

"Are you crazy? Come here and let me give you a good talking to." The man reached out and grabbed Charlotte.

Mrs. Fuller Senior immediately stepped forward to hold Charlotte's hand and asked, "As a man, should you really be grabbing a woman?"

"Where did this old lady come from? Piss off!" The man was so angry that he pushed Mrs. Fuller Senior away.

Mrs. Fuller Senior lost her balance and fell to the ground. With a pained look on her face, she closed her eyes.

Sheryl instantly burst into tears. "Great... Great-grandma!!!"

The scene was chaotic.

Before Charlotte could react, an ice-cold hand pulled her away. A beautiful right-hook sent the man to the ground. The tip of a shoe was placed right against the man's crotch.

By the time Charlotte got her balance again, Shane had already helped Mrs. Fuller Senior to her feet and took out his mobile phone at the same time.

He spoke very quickly. He seemed to be calling someone.

In less than ten seconds, the entire cinema was locked down. No one was allowed to enter or leave.

There was a chorus of complaints as several men in suits hurried into the hall.

They spread out the stretcher and put Mrs. Fuller Senior on it.

"Take her to Third Street Hospital." Shane pointed to the door and said with a hint of violence in his voice, "Get the unrelated people out."

"Yes, sir."

In an instant.

There were only three people left in the cinema, the man lying on the ground, and the person who seemed to be his girlfriend.

Charlotte sobbed and apologized, "Shane, I'm sorry, I..."

"When Grandma wakes up, you can think of your own excuse." Shane didn't even look at her as he walked straight towards the man.

He stretched out his hand, lifted the man, and used his right index finger and thumb to grab his neck.

"How dare you attack me! I am the CEO of the Jane Corporation, I am..."

"Wait." Charlotte stretched out her hand to stop Shane as she walked towards the man with a sneer. "You said you're the CEO of the Jane Corporation?"

Shane glanced at her.

When she apologized to him, she had been shivering like a poor little animal.

Now, she seemed to be wearing armor as she faced this outsider.

The speed at which this woman switched between the two personas was really fast.

"What's wrong? Are you afraid? I'm Rick Jane's..."

"Then how is it possible that you don't know me?" Charlotte moved closer to him. "I'm Charlotte Emerson, CEO of the Jane Corporation's Asia Pacific Region. Rick's... fiancee." This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

The man's eyes widened. How, how could this be possible!

Charlotte took out her phone, took a picture of this person, and sent it to Rick.

She asked, "Who is he?"

Soon, he gave his answer, "The CEO of the planning department. His character is a bit problematic, but he has decent skills. He's not of a bad catfish."

The catfish effect.

As a catfish destroyed the living environment of smaller fish, it also encouraged the survival instincts of the other small fish. Although some small fish would be lost, it could allow more fishes to survive.

When it came to the workplace, some bosses would sometimes recruit some 'talent' to keep the other employees competitive.

These people might not be the most suitable person for the company, and might not be the most outstanding ones, but they would put everyone in the same boat.

For everyone, the catfish effect was a cruel tactic.

But for the boss and the entrepreneur, the catfish effect was the best means to get things done.

"Call him and get him to cut it out."

"Did something big happen?"

"He just knocked Shane's grandmother out."

Rick was speechless.

He raised his hand to press against his temple and laughter helplessly. "Lottie, give Mr. Fuller your phone first."

Charlotte walked over and said cautiously, "Shane, can you take this call?"

Shane gave her a cold look, let go of the man's neck and took the phone.

The man breathed heavily as he kneeled on the ground. His heart had been shocked into pieces.

Rick Jane.

Shane Fuller.

The words of either of these two men could cause him to be blacklisted in this industry. No, he had to escape and find someone to help him!

The man's eyes kept moving about. He wanted to find a chance to escape. But on second thought, he knew that Shane's men were at the door.

Damn it!

He wouldn't even be able to escape.

While he was regretting his choices, a cold gaze fell on him. The feeling on his back shattered his rationality and made him stand still like a fool.

Shane took the phone, his gaze fixed on the man all the while. "Speak."

"Mr. Fuller, I'm going to the hospital today to apologize. I've only given this man an offer, but he hasn't started working at my company yet."

"Are you very afraid of me?"

"I'm more afraid that there will be some unnecessary misunderstandings between us.

I don't want them to be because of such a person"

"And you will deal with this?"

"That's not necessary. I just want to apologize. As for how you want to deal with him, I think it's up to you. However, if I remember correctly, both your company and mine have projects in Africa."

Rick spoke his language.

Shane, who was on the verge of anger, calmed down after hearing Rick's words.

No matter whether it was Charlotte or his Grandma, both of them had acted well.

He just needed to deal with the person in front of him.

Shane curled his lips and said, "As expected, it would be more appropriate to let you deal with it."

"I'm honored." Rick chuckled. "Could you please give me the address, Mr. Fuller? I'll visit you right away to apologize."

"Third Street Hospital."

"Regardless, please don't make things difficult for Charlotte, Mr. Fuller. She really cares about what you think of her."

Shane pretended that he didn't hear these words as he turned around and handed the phone to Charlotte.

Charlotte picked up the phone in a hurry, "Rick?" "It's all right. I'll ask someone to deal with him later. You and Sheryl can take a taxi to Third Street Hospital first."

"And Shane..."

"He will wait for my people at the cinema."

"Alright."

After she hung up, Charlotte whispered to Shane that she was leaving first, but Shane didn't respond.

She bit her lower lip, grabbed Sheryl's hand, and left without saying a word.

She was very worried about Mrs. Fuller Senior.

Charlotte and Sheryl walked away.

It seemed that this man was out of luck.

For a moment, blood flowed like a river, and teeth fell to the ground.

He didn't need teeth.

After all, he only needed to shut up and be an obedient corporate slave.

After Shane finished, he adjusted his clothes and looked at the man as if he were looking at an ant. "You should regret coming to watch a movie today."
