Baby, I Found for You an Awesome Daddy

Charlotte tilted her head sideways and looked at Shane. “If you think that I’m making a big deal out of it, I can just leave. From now on, you will be in charge of the child. I definitely will not interfere.”

“Is that necessary?”

“Do you think it’s not?”

When Sheryl came back, she saw that her father and mother were at loggerheads. Although the two of them stopped talking, the look in their eyes didn’t appear quite right. Moreover, no one heeded her when she came back. She looked at the three cups of drinks in her hands and suddenly felt upset. After a while of hesitation, she still decided to walk over slowly. “Drinks?”

Charlotte quickly changed her expression and smiled at Sheryl. She removed the cup from her hand and took a sip of the drink, saying, “Thank you, darling.”

Sheryl smiled and handed the other glass to Shane. “Daddy.”

Shane didn’t reach out to take it. He glared at Charlotte, then stood up and walked into the study, closing the door behind him.

Sheryl put down the glass and sat down beside Charlotte. “Mommy, daddy is actually very nice to me. I ate a lot of ice cream today, and that’s why I wanted more…”

Sheryl’s voice was especially adorable when she tried to be cute. However, Charlotte didn’t even spare a glance at her. Sheryl felt as though her mother had changed. She wasn’t like this before.

“Mommy.” The little girl grabbed onto Charlotte’s sleeve and said, “Stop being angry.”

“I’m not angry.”

“You’re obviously angry. Sheryl won’t eat ice cream anymore. Don’t be angry. You don’t even want to look at Sheryl.”

Charlotte did not find Sheryl adorable. Instead, she felt annoyed. And she didn’t know what was wrong with herself either. She actually felt like scolding Sheryl. Charlotte took a deep breath and pushed the little girl away. Then, she got up, went into the bedroom, and locked the door. Sheryl stood in the living room, baffled. On the verge of tears, she knocked on the study’s door.

Shane opened the door. When he saw Sheryl’s upset face, he immediately held her up in his arms and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Daddy, I think mommy doesn’t love me anymore.” Sheryl suddenly burst into tears.

“She’s in a bad mood recently. Let’s leave her alone for a little while. When her mood goes back to normal, we’ll get even with her.” Shane caressed the little girl’s head and said, “Where does Sheryl want to go? I’ll take you there.”

“Sheryl doesn’t want to go anywhere. I just want to stay at home.” Sheryl lowered her head.

Little liar.

She was clearly worried about Charlotte.

However, Shane didn’t expose her. He put her down, pulled out a book from the bookshelf, and handed it to her. “You can read for a while.”

Shane walked away from her and turned the knob of the bedroom door. When he realized that he couldn’t open the door, he unlocked it with a spare key.

Charlotte wasn’t working. Her eyes were dull as she looked out of the window. She seemed to be looking at a bird, the clouds, or the blue sky. She was blankly staring at something that she usually didn’t look at.

“What’s wrong?” Shane sat down beside her.

“Don’t talk to me.”

“Do you want to go to the doctor’s?”

Why did she have to visit a doctor when there was absolutely nothing wrong with her?

Shane grabbed her wrist and said, “She’s your daughter. Think about how much you’ve sacrificed to her. How can you bear to leave her alone and let her cry?”

Charlotte wanted to retort him. But when she wanted to speak, she could only gulp.

After a while.

Only did she speak with resentment and anger, “Isn’t it because of you?”All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Shane pressed his other hand between his eyebrows and convinced himself not to be harsh on her. “You’ve been in a very bad mood lately. Go to the hospital and do a checkup.”

“Are you saying that I’m crazy?”

“More or less.”

“Shane, you!” Charlotte was choked with anger.

She was so angry that her lips turned pale. Suddenly, she blacked out and fell straight into his arms.

Shane was stunned for a few seconds before he immediately took her to the bed and did CPR on her. “Sheryl.”

Sheryl immediately ran into the room. When she saw what was happening, her mouth fell agape, and she said, “Daddy, what are you doing?”

“Call the ambulance.”

The ambulance…

Of course Sheryl knew what it meant. She immediately panicked, and tears started falling down her cheeks. But she didn’t dare to slow down, so she quickly called the ambulance.

After some time, paramedics from the hospital arrived.

Shane was leaning against the wall with a pale face, watching as doctors and nurses walked in and out before him.

“Don’t worry, family members. There’s nothing wrong with her vital signs. It should only be a shock.” The doctor handed the basic report to Shane. “Take a look at this first. If there’s no problem, we’ll take her to the hospital for first aid.”

“Can I go with you?” Shane was not in the mood to read the report at all.

“Of course, but it’s best for the child not to follow.”

Shane nodded.

After he called and asked Rick and Kendall to look after Sheryl, he immediately left with the doctor.

As soon as Rick arrived, he saw Sheryl sitting alone on the sofa with a devastating look. His face sank, and he went over to hug the child. “Tell me what happened, Sheryl. Don’t keep everything to yourself. It’s okay. Believe me. It will be fine.”

“Rick, mommy doesn’t seem well…” Sheryl said with teary eyes, “She suddenly passed out, and then daddy was above her, pressing on her chest, but she still didn’t wake up. I only felt pain when I looked at her, and she still didn’t wake up. Will she never wake up?”

“Of course not. You have to trust the doctors.”

“I… ”

Sheryl felt even sadder.

She wanted to trust the doctors, but what if something went wrong?

…

When Charlotte woke up, she realized that there were a lot of people around her.

Besides Shane, who was the nearest to her, there were also people who were wearing glasses and suits. They didn’t look like businessmen. And they were holding notebooks and some… medicine in their hands? Those in the test tubes should be drugs, which appeared to be transparent and clear.

Apart from these people, there was another person she was incredibly familiar with-Avery.

“Her condition should be PTSD, but there are no major issues. So, she’ll be fine as long as she receives treatment,” The person standing next to Avery said.

“Is there any way to cure it at this stage?” Avery asked.

“No, how could there be such a thing? There’s no shortcut when it comes to psychology. It’s the same as what happened to Rick,” said the man. “However, Rick is luckier because he had someone by his side. Besides, after he was triggered, he got what he wanted. I’m more concerned about whether you all know what Miss Charlotte wants or not.”

What did Charlotte want?

Avery was stunned, and Shane was silent too.

The doctor shook his head and continued, “In this case, the best way is hypnosis. But it depends on you…”

“I don’t want that!”

Charlotte stood up immediately. She held herself up and glowered at the crowd in front of her. “Why do you want to hypnotize me? What are you guys trying to do?”

Avery reached out and gently held her shoulder. “Lottie, if you need anything, you can tell me. At least I’m not an outsider to you, you…”

“I don’t need that!”

Charlotte’s temper was worse than usual.

Avery was shocked. He immediately looked at Shane and asked, “What happened?”

Shane kept quiet. His gaze, which landed on Charlotte, was filled with sharp pain. Avery would be stupid if he still didn’t understand the situation.

He pulled the doctor closer and said, “Did you see that? How can you explain her current situation? In case something life-threatening happens to her, I don’t think I’ll be brave enough to walk out of here.”

“Well… Then you have to be ready to move all the projects to the Brine.”

“It doesn’t matter what price I have to pay,” Avery said solemnly. “Without them, I won’t be able to carry out my revenge.”
