Baby, I Found for You an Awesome Daddy

Charlotte’s gaze met Kendall’s. The latter hurriedly turned around. It was not difficult to see that Kendall’s gaze was filled with resentment.

That was her problem. In any case, she would only lend a helping hand if Rick was about to drop dead in the next second. Otherwise, it wasn’t a big deal. She only wanted to make sure that Rick wouldn’t feel like she had any feelings for him. That would be too dangerous.

Besides, breaking up had been Rick’s ideas. In their relationship, Rick had always taken the lead. Since he had given things up, why should she keep thinking about it? Why should she care about him?

“Women are so confusing.” Avery sighed.

Charlotte didn’t have any intention of defending herself. She didn’t even look at Rick and Kendall.

After the cremation was complete, Rick’s legs were still trembling.

The cars in the parking lot of the crematorium left one by one. The ashes would not be handled by them. But, right now, in Rick’s condition, he couldn’t deal with anything. So someone else from the Jane family had to collect the ashes and send them off to be buried.

However, only a few people from the Jane family had come. After all, most of the Jane family were abroad, and Mielle was of a younger generation. No one had rushed back to the country to deal with her funeral.

“Can this document only be signed by Rick?” Avery raised his wrist. It was already eight o’clock. He still had a meeting at eleven o’clock. He needed at least an hour to get back to the city from here. If he delayed any longer, he would be late.

“They’re afraid that someone might steal the ashes, probably,” Charlotte said.

Avery said impatiently, “Who would steal that? Won’t they be afraid of being haunted?”

“I’ve asked the people here. They’ve lost people’s ashes before. Afterward, they even approached the family members to ask if they wanted to buy the ashes back. These people exist. They’re not scared of anything,” Charlotte said.

“That’s so despicable,” Avery said, gritting his teeth.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

In the end, it was not until Rick had recovered that he began to go through the formalities.

The graveyard was not far away from the crematorium. It would only take half an hour to get there. Shane had already made arrangements at the graveyard. All they had to do was get there.

Charlotte wasn’t a fan of graveyards. They were creepy.

It wasn’t just her, though. This graveyard in River City was long believed to be severely haunted.

Therefore, Kendall was left in the car.

Charlotte wore headphones as she closed her eyes and leaned back into her seat to rest. Suddenly, the earphones were yanked out. She opened her eyes and looked up only to find Kendall standing in front of her.

“What’s the matter?”

“Even if you lock me up, they will still bust me out. Why can’t you let it go?” Kendall stared at Charlotte, hatred flickering in her eyes.

They could have settled things privately. Besides, Kendall hadn’t done anything else to Charlotte or Sheryl afterward.

Why was Charlotte so stubborn?

Charlotte laughed softly. “There are only two reasons for you to be so angry. First, your resume will not look so good after you go to jail. Second, although the Stevens family is willing to save their little princess, you’ll probably be kicked out of the family if there is a second time, right?”

Kendall gritted her teeth and glared at her. “You don’t have to tell me that!”

“This is the price you have to pay for your mistakes. In a few decades, both of us will die. By then, my daughter might be a judge or an entrepreneur. When she is faced with a matter of good and evil, she will think of you. As her mother, I hope that she will remember that good can defeat evil.”

“Evil? What right do you have to call me evil? If you hadn’t done those things to Rick, I wouldn’t have…”

“You can tell the judge that I hurt Rick. Let’s see if the law will find me guilty and give me a life sentence.”

Kendall clenched her fists. She was so angry that her face was red. “Aren’t you afraid that I will come out of prison and kill Sheryl?”

Charlotte stood up, smiling. She felt like she didn’t have to try too hard to argue with Kendall. She was taller than the other woman by two full inches. Charlotte could scare Kendall off just by towering over her.

“Just you try. If anything happens to Sheryl, I won’t let you die peacefully. I’ll kill every single member of the Stevens family slowly in front of you. Then, I’ll feed you their flesh and blood.” Charlotte lowered her voice as she placed a single hand on Kendall’s shoulder. Her voice was as cold as the grave.

Kendall was thoroughly scared by Charlotte. She turned her eyes away and dared not to look at Charlotte anymore.

Charlotte let go of Kendall’s shoulder and sat back down leisurely. She put her earphones into her ears again.

Kendall’s face was ashen. She did not have the guts to try and talk to Charlotte again.

Charlotte was even more unreasonable than Shane.

Kill her family slowly…

Kendall couldn’t believe that Charlotte had said such a thing. As Kendall returned to her seat, she still felt shaken. From what she knew, Charlotte wasn’t the kind of person who didn’t have a temper, but she never seemed so cruel to her before.

Kendall peeked in the direction of Charlotte a few times. However, all she could see was Charlotte’s back. Charlotte didn’t even bother to pay attention to her.

Kendall bit her lips and took out her phone, intending to send a message to Rick. However, she had truly been in the wrong in this matter.

She only hoped that the Stevens family wouldn’t kick her out because of this.

The burial ended.

Charlotte returned to Shane’s car and handed the earphones to him. “How did you know Kendall would definitely come to talk to me? I thought that she knew how we felt.”

“Kendall thinks that the Stevens family will help her, so it doesn’t matter either way.” Shane put the earphones back into his pocket.

“Why does she think that way?” Charlotte clenched her fists tightly.

Before this, Shane had told her many times to restrain her emotions when she faced Kendall. It was no good to argue with her.

She actually didn’t know the reason.

“Her thinking is different from ours. The Stevens family always puts family first.” Shane took off his suit jacket and covered her with it.

He wasn’t superstitious, but the graveyard was indeed cold. It was flu season too, so it was better to make sure that she didn’t catch a chill.

It was only then that Charlotte suddenly understood, “No wonder you said that there’s no benefit to argue with her. It’s because we have different ways of thinking?”

“That’s right.”

“But even if they put family first, why would they save Kendall? Wouldn’t it be too much trouble to antagonize us?”

“Kendall is very important to the Stevens family. As for us… Who do you think is more important? Rick or someone who has lost NC Company like me?”

“They don’t know about your plans after giving up NC Company.” Charlotte sighed.

Other people only knew that Christopher had won against Shane.

As Charlotte thought about this, her heart ached for Shane. When he was in that position, everyone was waiting for him to leave. After he had truly left, not a single person felt as if a hero had fallen. Instead, everyone thought that Shane had been humiliated. They had completely forgotten about everything that he had once contributed to the country and the city.

She bit her lip. “It’s too unfair.”

“What are you thinking about now?”

“Nothing. I just feel like…” She felt sorry for him.

Shane turned on the computer he had brought with him and opened a software. “Now you should think about how to get the Stevens family into trouble. You can use this matter with Kendall. Whether it is a conspiracy or a plot, you can take revenge in your own way.”

Her own way…

Charlotte looked at the shipping routes software in front of her. She recalled Kendall’s threat just now.

The light in Charlotte’s eyes turned cold. “I understand. The judgment of the law gave Sheryl and me some justice. That the Stevens family would save Kendall is based on their relationship with her. For me to go after the Stevens family is to make myself feel better. These three issues don’t contradict. Rather, they can coexist.”

Shane’s thin lips curled slightly and his body leaned forward a little. “That’s right.”

“Do you deal with things like this usually?”

“More or less.” His means were much more ruthless than hers.

Charlotte took a deep breath.

The Stevens family.

What should she do?
