Chapter 420 Nothing to Do With You
“What does what I asked Jackson to do have anything to do with you?” Shane looked at Josephine.
“We’re very close, Mr. Fuller. You should have known this before. He fell from his motorcycle. Since he thought that you and Charlotte were at home, it would be fine if I watched you for a while. We didn’t expect this to happen,” Josephine answered defensively. Obviously, she was dissatisfied with the fact that Charlotte had got someone to pick her up.
“Lottie, you got Zayden to…”
“Shane.” Charlotte stared into his eyes and enunciated, “I’m very disappointed in you. Zayden, let’s go.”
Zayden threw a remote at Shane and said with a faint smile, “I don’t know if you know, Mr. Fuller, but you’d better not anger a woman, especially your own. Otherwise, you might find yourself dead without knowing why.”
Shane narrowed his eyes and strode forward. He pushed Zayden aside and grabbed Charlotte’s hand. “Don’t start a tantrum. Wait…”
“Mrs. Fuller Senior is dead, right?”
Charlotte’s sudden statement caused Shane to fall silent. The hand that held her wrist also stiffened.
How did she know? Did someone tell her, or did she investigate it herself?
“Is that a confession?” Charlotte turned around and pulled her hand away. “You got someone to follow me. When your grandmother died, you hid the news and she didn’t even get a funeral. I always thought that you were distant, but you’re still a very loyal person in reality. Right now, I can only think that you’re terrifyingly cold-blooded.”
“Sheryl couldn’t find out.” Shane frowned.
“How about me? Why can’t I know?”
“The fewer people who know…”
“Shane, I don’t think living together is such a good idea. I will transfer my and Mrs. Fuller Senior’s shares to you as soon as possible.” After she spoke, Charlotte turned around and left.
People said.
You could turn someone into a mirror of yourself.
That someone could be equally calm, cold-blooded, equally proud and indifferent.
Therefore, Shane could understand Charlotte’s reasonable anger. He just didn’t expect that she wouldn’t even give him a chance to explain even though he didn’t know what to say. She should be the person who knew him best, but she was also the person who would leave him in a heartbeat.
Shane immediately called Jackson and asked him to take Josephine away.
Regardless of what happened to him, he still needed to come and take Josephine away.
When he heard about this, Jackson knew that things were not going well. He immediately rushed to Shane’s villa and took his sister away.
Jackson, who had limped all the way to the villa, looked at Shane, who was sitting on the sofa and smoking a cigarette. “Mr. Fuller, didn’t you quit smoking? You said that you had a child now so…”
“Take her away.”
Shane’s tone was very cold.
“Yes, sir.” Jackson didn’t dare to socialize again.
“I’ll give you some money. Complete the mission ahead of time.”
“Yes, sir.”
Jackson took Josephine and the remote control away.
Shane was the only one left in the empty villa. He looked at the dark TV screen and frowned slightly.
…
Charlotte organized a press conference and announced that she and Shane no longer had anything to do with each other. After that, she disappeared. Avery also went missing as well.
However, Avery had only returned to his own city and began to fight for his inheritance with the rest of the Hart family. After all, he had already avenged Irena. Olive went with him too.
Just like that, Sheryl was left behind.
She never imagined that her mother would leave her and not even tell her.
“Eat something.” Shane put some porridge in front of her.
“I don’t want to eat.” Sheryl pouted and didn’t even look at Shane.
“I’ll bring her back.”
“She’ll come back on her own and take me away. Daddy, you’ll be all alone!”
Shane felt helpless. He squatted down and gently stroked the child’s hair. “When she comes back, I will explain it to her.”
“If Mommy wanted to listen to your explanation, why would she leave?”
“Because she was too angry at the time.”
“Daddy, what on earth did you do? Why was Mommy so angry that she even abandoned me?”
Shane didn’t know.
Out of concern for her and Sheryl, he did not tell her the truth. He instructed Jackson to follow her in order to protect her and to ensure that she would not be targeted by some random people. He did not want to obstruct her or anything like that.
He believed that he didn’t make any mistake when it came to his relationship with her.
They were publicly acknowledged to be a couple to be envied.
“Knock, knock!”
When she heard the knocking, Sheryl’s eyes lit up. She ran over and opened the door. Maybe her Mommy came back!
When she saw Rick and Kendall standing in the doorway hand in hand, Sheryl’s nose twitched and she threw herself into Rick’s arms crying.
“Don’t cry, little princess.” Kendall bent down to pick Sheryl up. “Rick is feeling a little bad, so can I hold you?”
“Okay.” Sheryl nodded with tears in her eyes.
“What’s wrong?” Kendall held her up in one arm and stroked her head with her free hand.
“My Mommy doesn’t want me anymore.” The kid cried furiously.
“It will be fine.” Kendall turned to Shane and said, “Mr. Fuller, I came here with Rick to tell you that Ms. Emerson is looking for you.”
“Ms. Emerson?” Shane frowned.
Kendall had never addressed Charlotte in this way before.
Kendall nodded. “She has recently messed with the Jane Corporation and the Stevens family. If you have been watching the news, you will see that my brother has been sent to prison. My father escaped because of health reasons. So now, whether it is the Jane Corporation or the Stevens family’s domestic projects, she is dealing with them.”
How did Charlotte become that powerful?
Shane remained silent.
“She’s looking for you because of her acquisition of NC Company. Mr. Fuller, this may be your best chance.”
“Give me the address.”
Kendall told him the address.
Shane didn’t talk to the two of them anymore. He picked up his car keys and coat, and left.
Rick turned to see his retreating back and said with a sigh, “He’s just like me in the past.”
“You’re not the same. At least, he’s still in love with Charlotte.” Kendall gave a cold snort. “Looks like we’re going to be taking care of Sheryl today.”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
“Isn’t that good?” Rick looked at her tenderly.
“It’s not so bad to take care of Sheryl. It’s not so good to be kept without freedom by you.”
“So my Kendall wants to be free?” Rick hugged her gently and kissed her earlobe. “What did I do wrong now?”
“Ew…”
Sheryl covered her eyes and ran away from them. “You are more disgusting than Daddy and Mommy.”
Kendall’s face turned red. That’s not true. It’s all Rick’s fault. Let me go now.”
“Sheryl, this is not disgusting, this is love.” Rick corrected her.
Oh.
What was the difference?
Sheryl sat on the sofa and propped her head up.
Right now, she only wanted her Mommy to come home.
She missed her Mommy so much.
She hadn’t seen her Mommy in a long time.
She didn’t want to be an orphan.
As Sheryl thought about it, her eyes turned red again. She held back her tears, but she started crying anyway.
When she saw this, Kendall immediately ran over and hugged her. “Sheryl, you have to know that your Mommy does everything for your future. Don’t worry, she will soon come back to you.”
“Okay…” The little girl threw herself into Kendall’s arms and cried.
Oh!
Kendall sighed.
“What is this all about?” she wondered.
On the other end.
Charlotte sat by the window in a coffee shop, her fingers tapping on her laptop’s keyboard. By her hand was a cup of coffee.
From time to time, she would stop and take a sip from her coffee cup.
The door of the coffee shop was suddenly pushed open. A familiar smell followed.
Without a word, Shane pulled Charlotte up and held her tightly in his arms. “Where have you been?”
With this finally occurring after so long, Charlotte should be happy, right?
However, Charlotte only felt that his hug was irritating. She struggled and said, “It has nothing to do with you.”
The words were cold and without any emotion.
“What exactly do you want?” Shane frowned. “What happened with Josephine was an accident. You know better than me why I didn’t tell you about my grandmother’s death.”
“Yes, I understand. That’s why I have to leave you.” Her voice was neutral.
