Baby, I Found for You an Awesome Daddy

“On your grandfather’s side of the family, there is a history of heart and blood diseases. Christopher had a bone marrow transplant for leukemia when he was a child, so his blood type has changed. It took us a lot of time to find him.”

“You were looking for him?”

“Yes, that is because, this time, you gave all your shares to Christopher. That’s why I returned to River City. I hope you’ll stop here. After all, he is your brother. Afterward, I’ll go and talk to him too…”

“That’s impossible.”

Shane got up straight away and said word by word, “He betrayed me. It’s impossible.”

Before he finished his words, he had already left the table.

There was a worried look on Mrs. Fuller Senior’s weathered face.

Even if she did not like what the man had done, he was still her grandson, a grandson she had never even met before.

…

In the end, Mrs. Fuller Senior did not go to the movies with them.

Charlotte and Raina sat with Sheryl in the back seat. The little girl was in a good mood and had been chattering all the way.

Soon, the car stopped at the entrance to the cinema.

Shane went to buy the tickets, while Charlotte and Raina brought Sheryl to the small kiosk next to the cinema hall to play.

“I heard Theodore overworked himself to death,” Charlotte said.

“Why are you asking about this?” Raina was on the alert.

“I have a friend. His sister and girlfriend were murdered in River City, so he investigated all the suspicious people, including Uncle Theodore.”

Raina’s expression looked a little better. “What else did your friend find out?”

Charlotte smiled and shook her head. “I’m not interested in this matter. After all, it’s his family matter. All I can help with is find some data.”

“Have you… ever seen that woman?” Raina asked again.

Charlotte seemed too calm.

This made Raina suspect that Charlotte knew about this matter. In fact, she knew quite a lot of things too.

Through this question, Charlotte also guessed that Raina might have suspected that she was acquainted with Christopher’s mother.

As Sheryl won a prize at her game, Charlotte suddenly replied, “Yes, I have.”

“What is she like now?” Raina asked in a rush.

“She’s a nun. She eats simply and prays every day. I heard that this started after Theodore’s death,” Charlotte replied.

“Funny that she does this now. Why did she interfere with Theodore and me back then?”

“Was she the other woman back then?”

“Of course!”

Charlotte didn’t say anything.

She couldn’t imagine that a woman like Agnes would become the other woman. She was a person who stood apart from worldly affairs and didn’t talk much in daily life.

At that moment, Shane returned. Sheryl handed her prize to him and said, “Daddy, look how awesome I am!”

“Really awesome.” Shane picked her up and carried her on his shoulder.

“Wow, I’m flying.”

Sheryl’s innocent look made Raina very envious. She also had such an unrestrained childhood. At that time, her father was even better than Shane.

But after her father passed away, she became a pitiful person whose family couldn’t even stand her.

Theodore was enjoying all the fame and wealth she had brought, but he couldn’t let go of Agnes at the same time.

Raina’s heart was filled with complications.

The movie was pretty good.

Sheryl and Raina liked it very much. It was too bad that Mrs. Fuller Senior did not come.

“Daddy, I won’t go back with you. I want to stay with Great-grandmother.” Sheryl raised her head to look at Charlotte, “Mommy, can I?”

“Alright, it just so happens that your recent lessons have ended. I’ll just treat it as a holiday for you.” Charlotte smiled as she patted Sheryl’s head.

“Mommy’s so great!”

Sheryl left with Raina.

Raina held Sheryl’s hand, but her heart still felt uncomfortable.

Was this child really Shane’s?

She couldn’t help saying, “Um, Sheryl, do you know who your father is?”

“It’s Daddy,” Sheryl answered without thinking.

“Did they tell you?”

Sheryl nodded.

Raina was completely relieved.

A child wouldn’t lie. Moreover, Raina had always been by Charlotte’s side, which meant that Charlotte didn’t have the chance to speak to the child.

If they were able to tell the child the truth, it proved that it was true.

Sheryl followed Raina around, but all the muscles in her body were stiff.

When she had just arrived at the old mansion today, her great-grandmother told her that if Raina asked her who her father was, she would tell her it was Daddy.

That was what her Great-grandma had told her-

“Do you want your mother to be with Shane?”

Sheryl nodded.

“Then you have to call me Grandma first.”

Sheryl suddenly understood.

However, she did not expect Raina to really ask this question.

Sheryl suddenly felt a little scared.

Why was it that her Daddy and Mommy had to receive the permission of others before they could be together?

Wasn’t it their business?

…

The car drove toward home.

Shane entered the study alone.

Charlotte went to the kitchen and made some coffee. She knocked on the door and called him, but he didn’t open the door.

She could only put the coffee in a noticeable place and went back to the bedroom to take a shower.

After showering, Charlotte felt a little sleepy, but she couldn’t sleep. For the past few days, Shane had been sleeping beside her.

Although most of the time, both of them were rather busy, and usually she had already fallen asleep when he returned, but she could still feel his body warmth. Now…

Actually, she was not used to it.

Charlotte stood up and put on her robe. She went to the study and knocked on the door.

Shane still didn’t open the door. This time she opened the door. He hadn’t locked the door again.

Charlotte immediately walked in.

The study had a small balcony.

At that moment, Shane was standing by the balcony railing and looking into the distance.

Without turning on the light, he was shrouded in darkness like a shadow. His silhouette was unspeakably lonely.

By his hand, there was a wine glass with ice cubes and a bottle of almost-full wine.

“Shane…”

Charlotte called out to him softly.

Shane didn’t answer.

She walked to him silently and asked, “Do you want to go back to the bedroom to rest?”

Shane turned around and looked at her.

His gaze terrified her to the point that she could not speak. It was like a bottomless sea.

“You and Rick, have you ever loved each other?”

Upon hearing that, Charlotte was dumbfounded.

She thought he was worried about Christopher, but why did he ask about her and Rick?

She shook her head.

Rick respected her very much, but she could not fall in love with Rick, so the two of them had not even flirted with each other, let alone fell in love with each other.

“My family has made me very insecure,” Shane said.

“So, you care about whether your other half is loyal to you or not?”

“That’s right.”

“If I said that Rick and I loved each other, would you still keep me by your side?”

Charlotte was looking forward to Shane’s reply.

Shane frowned. “I won’t.”

“But you’re keeping me by your side before you know the truth.”

“This is the reason why I am unable to reconcile with myself.”

“I thought you were worrying about Christopher.” Charlotte tried to change the topic.

What about Christopher?

Shane rubbed the space between his eyebrows. “No one can change what I’ve decided on.”

“Have you made up your mind to make NC Company and Christopher pay the price? But what about the employees?”

“Bad luck.”

“You’re really heartless.”

Charlotte was pulled into Shane’s arms as soon as she finished her words.

He bit hard on her lips, and the smell of blood instantly spread from his mouth to hers.

She could see the moon through his eyes.

“Who do you think is not cruel? Is it Rick, Christopher, or Avery?”

His behavior was probably out of jealousy, wasn’t it?© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Charlotte couldn’t help but feel helpless. After all, she had spent some time by Rick’s side. However, she didn’t have much contact with Christopher after she left her position, let alone Avery, who seemed to be abnormal.

“They are all cruel. All capitalists are vampires.” She could only answer like this.

“Do you think I’m the same as them?”

“You are not the same.”

Charlotte acted as if she was facing a formidable enemy.

Could anyone tell her what had happened to Shane?

This question was impossible!
