Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte)

Chapter 262

Peter lifted his gaze to look at Avery's expressive face through the rearview mirror. "Why are you asking me?"

"You also collect intelligence. We've cooperated with each other before, but we've only just officially met now. I thought there would be a cruel killer behind the computer screen, but I didn't expect that a child." Avery reached out and touched Peter's chin gently.

His fingers caressed Peter's Adam's apple. The scene was so weirdly intimate that Zoe felt as if she was intruding on their moment, so she looked away.

Peter was expressionless. Avery's skill at seducing others was very useful. But it didn't work on Peter. He didn't even have a frown on his face, and simply allowed Avery to gently stroke his throat.

Generally speaking, a normal person would push Avery away at this moment and then say something like that he was driving. Nevertheless, Peter was still driving calmly.

"You're indeed unusual." Avery took his hand away and sat back down properly.

"Mr. Fuller doesn't employ ordinary people."

"So, do you think that Mr. Fuller will win in the end?"

Peter was silent for a moment. He looked up at Avery again and said, "The winner should be Christopher. The more Mr. Fuller doesn't want to be his partner, the more effort he will have to put in."

Avery did not expect that Peter's thinking was the same as his. He sighed lazily and said, "I really hope that someone can take bets. I will bet all my money that Shane will lose everything."

"Is it because he calls you a sissy?" Zoe didn't keep quiet and retorted.

After all, Charlotte and Shane were both her superiors and friends, so she couldn't make sarcastic remarks like Peter.

Avery folded his hands and placed them on his stomach. He cast a deep look at the river of cars on the road. "Because he will let someone you would never expect to win."

"Charlotte?" Zoe asked.

Avery did not answer.

"It's Braden," said Peter.

"What does this have to do with Braden?"

Zoe's head began to ache.

That night.

After she took a shower, Charlotte sat on the sofa with her hair tied up and placed the computer on her lap. She held a sandwich in one hand and tapped on the keyboard with the other. She was currently organizing the details of going to the Chambers residence with Zoe and Avery.

Shane was called away by someone from the Airline Union, so she only needed to take care of her own dinner.

Since she was alone.

The sandwich and coffee were the best, simple and convenient.

"Lottie, on the way back, Avery said that you might come with us because of Shane. Is it because of him?"

"Yes, he asked me to go and have a look."

"I kept an eye on it and got someone to investigate the Chambers family. I discovered that it is an ordinary family. Why did Avery get involved with it?"

An ordinary family?

Charlotte was a little surprised, "How ordinary?"

"My family's situation is abnormal, and theirs are ordinary," Zoe answered.

To be described in this way by Zoe, it must be an extremely ordinary family.

Charlotte rubbed her temples and said, "Avery fell in love with a girl from an ordinary family, and things ended up with someone dying? Is this woman an angel?"

"Lottie, do you think I look like an angel?" Zoe asked.

"You don't look like one at all."

"So, no matter how gentle and lovely the girl is, she has the same face as I do. I don't believe that she can captivate Avery into acting like a lovelorn fool who will do anything for revenge."

Charlotte didn't reply.

At that time, she also received the information Peter had given her.

The Chambers family had a small business, and it earned about 100,000 dollars a year. They had a car and a house. It was truly an ordinary family.

Irena had been a physics student. A very good one.

There was a saying in the country.

All universities were not as good as the University of River City. At the University of River City, the physics course was the best. Even internationally, if you said that you were a physics student at the

University of River City, you would get a lot of envious looks.

Countless foreign scholars gained great prestige by just having visited the University of River City.

Irena was a physics student at the University of River City. If she hadn't died she would have been a national scholar even if she couldn't match Einstein.

Coincidentally, Avery's sister also studied at the University of River City. But she was a literature student.

"Zoe, which college did you go to?" Charlotte asked casually.

"The University of River City."

"What?" Charlotte wondered if she had heard wrongly.

Zoe repeated with some suspicion, "The University of River City." Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

If there was someone who looked exactly like you and went to the same school as you, wouldn't you know about her?

Even if they were from different intakes, it was impossible not to know at all.

Charlotte immediately felt that there was something wrong with this matter. She immediately sent Peter to investigate all the relevant matters related to Zoe. She had a hunch that she had found something.

Zoe had no idea what had happened. She called out to Charlotte and asked, "Lottie, what's wrong?" "Irena was also in the University of River City. Don't you know anything about her? She is not ugly, although her family background is ordinary, she was a physics student at the University of River City. Have you never heard of such a person?"

"How old was Irena?"

"A bit older than me."

"But I am younger than you, so I definitely can't be Irena."

It was only then that Charlotte realized that she and Avery had forgotten about age.

Therefore, it was impossible for Zoe to be Irena.

It was the late summer and fall was just beginning.

The weather was very cool.

Charlotte wore a coat and scarf and sat in the car waiting for Zoe and Avery. People were coming and going on the street, and everyone was wearing masks.

It was said that flu season was coming soon, and River City took this matter seriously. A few days ago, she received a notice that it would be best for her to work from home.

After several minutes, Avery and Zoe showed up.

Charlotte was a little surprised because Peter was with them.

Peter was quite handsome. When next to Avery, he still stood out. Instead, they seemed somewhat like brothers.

Zoe recognized Charlotte's car and opened the door to sit in the back seat.

Peter sat in the back seat with her, while Avery sat in the front passenger seat.

"It's so great that Ms. Emerson is driving us. So great." Peter put on his seat belt and said, "I think this is my first time seeing Ms. Emerson drive."

"I usually drive myself."

"You usually take Mr. Fuller's car, with Cole driving," Peter explained.

That sounded right.

Charlotte thought for a while. Most of the time, she went out with Shane. She spent even more time with him than she had with Rick when she worked in the Jane Corporation. She still couldn't figure out what her relationship with Shane was now though.

The car started moving, but slowly. The way

Charlotte drove was just as stable as she herself was.

"Before I came here today, Mr. Fuller called me," Avery said.

"Oh?" Charlotte glanced at him.

"He said that he wanted me to take you to a party after today's meeting. I think it has something to do with the Jane Corporation. He said that he wanted you to see Rick."

Shane wanted her to see Rick?

Could pigs fly?

Charlotte was puzzled. "What's wrong with Rick?"

"I don't know either. That's why Peter is here. Afterward, he will send Zoe home. I'll go with you to see Rick," Avery said and leaned back. He arches an eyebrow. "Peter, aren't I good to you?"

"Mr. Hart, you've always been very nice," Peter replied politely.

Avery smiled and shrugged his shoulders. "No matter how this ends, Zoe is like a sister to me. It's my job to choose a suitable brother-in-law for my lovely sister."

He said gently and charmingly.

Zoe's ears were hot. "Mr. Hart, please stop joking."

"No." Avery turned his head to look at her. He pouted, looking like a spoiled child. He grabbed

her sleeve and said, "Zoe."

It was disgusting.

She was about to puke.

Zoe wanted to get out of the car.
