Baby, I Found for You an Awesome Daddy

“Thank you. Sorry for the trouble,” Charlotte said softly.

“If you play your part well, you can keep the 20% of shares.” Shane took off his suit and sat beside the bed. “If not, you’ll have to pay me 70 million. Hence, this is entirely an exchange. It’s not a bother for me and you don’t have to thank me.”

Charlotte bit her lips. She was so nervous, she didn’t know what to do.

Shane glanced at her with a cold but tender glimmer in his eyes as he pulled off his tie.

This matter was settled.

Charlotte hid in Shane’s room during the day and attended all kinds of cocktail receptions with him at night.

Shane had someone buy her a chiffon mask so that no one could see her face clearly.

It was another night.

Shane was negotiating with his dealer about the newest product release. It was a new batch of fish oil health supplements for cats.

It was then did Charlotte find out that the NC Company’s business had been expanded broadly after Christopher’s return.

In order to control the company’s shares, he had brought in a number of shareholders and finance.

This was due to the fact NC had long ago become an angel investor.

An angel investor refers to a high net-worth individual who invests in potential but risky businesses in exchange for equity.

Therefore, the capital brought by Christopher was from relatively large companies which undergo series A fundings.

The capital brought by the A fundings would usually be used to expand the company’s business scale or to branch out into new industries.

NC has gained a strong foothold in many industries so there was no need for extra fundings. However, Christopher was a director who held more than half of the stocks so he was qualified to negotiate directly with the capital company.

Which was why,

selling cat’s health supplement is nothing. Nobody would even be surprised if they opened a health-care nightclub someday.

Charlotte held the drink in her arms and slandered him in her mind.

Her phone suddenly vibrated.

A person by the alias ‘Dark Forest’ sent her a friend request, with a note: I have the answers to your questions.

She frowned and hesitated for some time before accepting the request.

‘Dark forest’ quickly sent her a video.

Inside, a man in a black windbreaker reached out for the blue box and took it. The man’s features could be clearly seen in the video. It was Christopher who stole the ring.

Did Christopher try to frame her?

But why?Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Charlotte bit her lips in confusion. ‘I must tell Shane about this,’ she thought.

She looked up to find Shane in the crowd but to no avail.

At this moment, her phone vibrated again.

Dark Forest: Shane will definitely help you out. The best way is to say he proposed to you with this ring.

Charlotte’s heart skipped a beat as she replied, ‘ Who are you?’

Dark Forest: That’s none of your concern. Today, Christopher will expose Shane and tell everyone you are Rick’s fiancee. The stock price will be greatly affected and Shane will be dismissed for lying.

Charlotte immediately typed her reply, ‘What should I do?’

Dark Forest: I don’t know. This has nothing to do with me.

Wait a minute,

there’s something suspicious about this matter.

If this matter does not benefit ‘Dark Forest’ at all, why was he helping her? What was he trying to accomplish?’ She thought.

If she came clean with Rex but Christopher doesn’t do as ‘Wild Forest’ had said, then she would’ve destroyed the peace they had retained for these few days.

But, that made no sense.

Therefore, ‘Dark Forest’ sent her this video so she could directly show Rex that Christopher stole the ring.

Then,

Shane’s partnership with Rex would not be affected and it would not seem irrational if she told Rex.

After some serious thought, Charlotte decided to head towards Rex’s private lounge. She was sure ‘Dark Forest’ had no intentions of deceiving her.

In the lounge, she found Shane was together with Rex.

That’s why she couldn’t find him. He was here talking with Rex.

Shane picked up his teacup and took a sip of tea. His gaze fell on her lazily, it was unclear what was on his mind.

Charlotte took a deep breath and took a bow. “Mr. Rex, I’m so sorry but we lied. I’m not Mr. Fuller’s fiancee. He just said that to help me out.”

Rex’s smile froze in an instant and he glared at her coldly. “Do you understand what you’re saying?”

“I know. I wanted to explain myself on the spot but I had absolutely no proof. You wouldn’t have believed me. Now, I have found the evidence  I originally wanted to explain, but in my mind, if there is no evidence, you won’t believe me no matter what, so now I have found the evidence.”

Rex narrowed his eyes.

One thing he hated the most in his entire life was to be deceived.

However, Charlotte and Shane weren’t exactly lying to him about this matter.

Shane had the right to call anyone he wanted his fiancee. It has nothing to do with Rex.

He could dump anyone, even someone he had real feelings for, with just a few simple words.

Rex calmed down and decided to listen to Charlotte’s explanation, “You said that you have found evidence, so where is this evidence? You don’t think I’d listen to your theories don’t you?”

“This is the evidence.”

Charlotte handed the phone over.

The video was very clear, it was also from multiple angles.

Rex was acquainted with Christopher so his face darkened when he saw the video clip. He gave the phone to Shane and said, “It seems I have to cancel our partnership.”

Shane’s zoomed in on the video to take a closer look. “This is Christopher Gibson.”

“I heard that he’s a very good friend of yours.”

“Once upon a time.”

Rex obviously didn’t believe him. He shrugged as he stood up and said, “Mr. Fuller, I appreciate your candour and I think this lady is very delightful but I have lost my trust in your company after what Mr. Gibson has done. So…”

Charlotte immediately spoke up, “Mr. Rex, can you give me a minute? I can explain everything! ”

Rex frowned. He looked at Charlotte and reproached, “Miss Emerson, I did have a good impression of you. But, what right do you have to speak with me?”

“I’m the CEO of the Jane Corporation and also the fiancee of Rick Jane, the president of the Jane Corporation. He can vouch for me.”

The Jane Corporation might only be a fairly large company in the country.

But it was very well-known among capitalists especially abroad.

Although Rex was an individual capitalist, he had never lost money in the many projects he invested in. He was also quite familiar with international idle capital so needless to say he would know the powerful man behind the Jane Corporation.”

“One minute,” Rex answered.

Charlotte nodded and gestured to the side, “Let’s talk aside.”

Shane sat down again.

He picked up the teacup leisurely,  took a sip of the tea, and put it down.

A few pieces of ceramic chipped off the teacup as he put it down.

He still remembered,

Back then, he had asked her why she didn’t use the name ‘Mrs. Fuller’ to avoid trouble.

He could no longer recall her answer. He only remembered he felt she was different from other women. She was neither obsequious nor materialistic but self-confident.

Now.

Rick’s fiancée.

There was no hesitation in her words.

Not even the slightest bit.

Shane looked at the cup on the table, his eyes were so cold it could freeze someone.

He never thought the word “sentimental” could be applied to himself. But, at this moment, he felt humiliation like never before.

His woman.

The mother of his daughter,

blatantly proclaimed he was the fiancee of another man.

Hmph.
