Baby, I Found for You an Awesome Daddy

The freezing breeze came one after another, each time chillier than the previous one.

Suddenly, Charlotte thought that the pain in her heart was actually not that big of a deal. She was simply not busy enough, and that was why she had so much time to be sad.

“Let’s go back.”

Shane opened his mouth and spoke after standing for a while.

Charlotte turned around with a firm gaze. “Thank you.”

“Rick might fire you, it’s better to make plans beforehand.”

“He… probably won’t, right?” Charlotte didn’t believe it, but she wasn’t sure either.

After all, she had only seen Rick, who was gentle and didn’t care about gains and losses. She had no idea what he would become when he was angry and disappointed. However, she had done so much for Jane Corporation. He had no reason to sack her all of a sudden.

When Charlotte thought of that, she wasn’t worried anymore and decided to just go with the flow.

Back in the car, Charlotte’s nearly frozen limbs were able to eventually warm up after reheating in front of the warmer.

Her gaze was transfixed on those people by the beach as she muttered to herself, “I don’t know if they can recover after a night like this.”

Shane drove the car in silence.

There was no response from Shane, so Charlotte turned to look at him. “Do you know who they’re working for?”

“The partnership, me.”

“You?” Charlotte was dumbfounded.

When Shane was talking about the partnership, she didn’t think of it the other way. After all, Avery had told her that Shane didn’t care much about the partnership, he simply attended all the meetings.

“Much surprised?”

“No, I just feel that you clearly know that it’s hard for them, so why do you still order them to unload the cargo at night? Can’t it be done the next morning?”

Charlotte thought that if the situation allowed, it would only be a matter of a few hours. It shouldn’t be too big of a problem.

Unexpectedly, Shane abruptly stopped the car and looked at her with a frigid gaze. “Do you know what goods are on the ship?”

Charlotte hitched her breath and shook her head.

“Those were reagents. They have to be stored under a specific temperature and period of time as they have to be delivered from the laboratory to the ship in less than 30 minutes. Otherwise, all the goods will be scrapped.”

The reagents were a special cargo in transportation.

The time and temperature should have to be calculated before leaving the laboratory.

That means, the temperature difference between day and night should also be calculated, and there was no way they could wait until the next morning.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Charlotte lowered her head in embarrassment. “I’m sorry. I should have asked you what’s inside before that.”

Shane stared at her with his cold eyes. “Do you like to apologize to others so much?”

“I’m not like you…”

“What’s that?”

“You’ve never apologized to me before,” she blurted out.

In fact, he seemed to have apologized in the past.

Charlotte immediately regretted as soon as those words tumbled out of her mouth.

She sounded as if she cared about his apology.

“At that time, I didn’t think I was wrong.”

Who would have thought that Shane’s answer would cause her to fly into a rage?

Charlotte was so angry that she puffed out her chest and pointed at him with her trembling finger, “You pinned me down in the car to… to do that kind of thing, and you didn’t think it was wrong? Also, if it hadn’t been for you, Rick and I wouldn’t have fought about what happened after that.”

As she was speaking.

Her tone gradually became aggrieved. The rims of her eyes were slightly red as well.

Shane promptly turned to the side and started the car.

“You don’t even care to explain. Just because you’re Shane Fuller, it doesn’t mean that you can be so stubborn. You think you can get away with everything just because you’re so rich?” Her emotions kicked in.

She shouldn’t have cared about him so much back then and directly sued him at the court!

Shane slowed down his car. His gaze landed on the flat road. With a calm voice, he said, “The damage has already been done. Are you trying to get even with me now?”

“You…” She choked with anger.

“Or, I can let you return it.”

“You f*cking bastard.”

He treated her like that because,

He just thought that she belonged to him, but she begged for other people’s help just for the sake of Christopher Gibson.

In the past, she even ran away from home without him noticing and developed an intimate relationship with another man in just a few days.

Even if he was like the “Shane” that she mentioned, a man who was widely regarded for being well-bred and cold.

But after all, she was different from other women.

She was the mother of his child.

Shane tightened his grip on the steering wheel, causing blue veins to emerge on the surface of his skin. “Now that Rick doesn’t want you anymore, maybe you can consider coming back to me.”

“Go back to you? Who was the one that ditched me last time? Even if I was dumped by another man, I would never go back to the trash can that has abandoned me before!” She was still fuming.

“A trash can?” Shane repeated these three words coldly.

“Is that how I look like in her mind?” he thought to himself.

Charlotte didn’t even bother to answer him. She propped her head on her hands and looked outside the window.

After some time.

She felt that something wasn’t quite right and asked in confusion, “This isn’t the way to my house.”

“It’s the way to my house.”

“Are you taking me to your house?” she suddenly became alert.

“I took you out to relax and left your daughter home alone. If you go back to Rick’s villa, she’ll ask me why I didn’t make you stay.” Shane gave a splendid reason, “It’s so tiring to deal with children.”

“You chose this yourself…” she mumbled.

“Alright, I’ll report to the media now and say that Rick had handed over the shares to me because Jane Corporation is performing poorly and needs financing.”

Charlotte was speechless.

She finally understood.

You can fight with anyone, but not Shane.

Because you might not win, and it might not be useful even if you won. Even if it was useful, you would still lose when you fight with him next time and even pay for what you owed him last time.

As the saying goes, the cycle of life and death will never end, and Shane will never die.

The one who would never die would either be a god or a monster. So the reason why she didn’t fight with him wasn’t that she was afraid of him. She simply knew what was the better option to choose.

Charlotte tried to convince herself by saying that. She wanted to hide so badly because of embarrassment.

Nothing good would ever happen whenever she was with Shane.

…

The next day.

After Charlotte and Sheryl had their meal, they went to Jane Corporation.

As soon as they entered the office, Charlotte sensed that there was something wrong with the way people were looking at them.

Confused, she decided to ask the girl at the front desk. The girl stuttered for a while and forced herself to say, “Why don’t you go ask Mr. Jane?”

“He’s back to work?” Charlotte was startled.

According to the doctor, Rick had at least another half a month of rest. Why did he come back here?

The girl at the front desk nodded while shivering.

Charlotte took a deep breath and furiously decided to settle the score with Rick.

When she reached the top floor.

She pushed open the office door.

At first, Rick was in a video conference. Seeing that she barged in such an aggressive manner, Rick immediately told them that he would call back after 30 minutes.

Rick closed his notebook, leaned on his chair lazily, and looked at Charlotte with a blank face. “You’ve been fired.”

Charlotte frowned. “My contract isn’t due yet.”

Was he really going to fire her?

Was he kidding?

“I will pay you a large amount of penalty, and it should be enough for you to start your own business. Also, I hope you can stop seeing Anne in the future. I don’t think you two are…”

“Rick, have you been kicked in the head?” Charlotte slammed her hand on his office table. “Are you abusing public power to take revenge? You’re such a gentleman. Great job, I admire you so much!”

“In your heart, I will never be as good as Shane, isn’t it?” He looked at her with a smile. “So we might as well cut clean, isn’t that good?”

Charlotte couldn’t argue with him. Indeed, she didn’t give him enough sense of security. However, even if she was sentenced to death, she still had the right to appeal, isn’t it?

She gritted her teeth, clenched her fists, and said word by word, “Okay, I admit that I was the one to blame, and I was definitely in the wrong.”

“But listen to me carefully, Rick. It’s not you who fired me, but I, who voluntarily chose to quit. If you don’t want to stay married to me, please publish it in the newspaper as well. Tell them that I cheated on you or I chose to quit on my own. It’s all up to you, really.”

“From now on, I have nothing to do with the Jane family.”

“If you don’t want to listen to my explanation, and don’t wish to see me in the future, I..”

Don’t need to rely on you anymore.

On the verge of tears, Charlotte turned around and left.
