Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte)

Chapter 354

Avery had not expected Olive to say something like that. He couldn't answer her questions. He opened the door silently. Olive did not say anything else as she followed behind him obediently. She sat in the backseat and looked out at the window.

She loved herself, so she would feel at home wherever she was.

She would always remember this sentence.

"My wife committed suicide and I didn't want to remarry so adoption was the best option for me," Avery suddenly said.

Olive snapped back to reality. She tilted her head to look at him. "What if it wasn't me?"

"I didn't intend to adopt a child even though I know it's beneficial for me. But I see a desire in you that I lack."

Olive suddenly smiled. She felt relieved and said, "Thank you, Mr. Avery."

Avery did not ask why she thanked him because it was not necessary. Whether it was her or him, they both needed this haven. As long as they were both happy in this haven, it was enough.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of Anne and Braden's wedding.

Charlotte had already been married before so she couldn't be the bridesmaid. She could only work with Shane at the scene. However, there were very few tasks they could help out with.

The entire church was covered in white roses. Even the carpet was covered in white rose petals. All of this seemed rather romantic and peaceful.

"Do you want a wedding?" Shane suddenly asked her.

"No, I don't." Charlotte answered bluntly, "Anne and Braden also didn't want this wedding, don't they? If it weren't for this plan, they wouldn't even be bothered with it. It looks so perfect but in reality it's just a waste of time and money."

"Don't all women care about this?"

"Then I'm not a woman."

Shane laughed and pinched her ear, "If I wanted to give you a wedding, are you sure you won't want to be part of it?"

"Of course. I'd think about it if you hide it from me at first and I only have to say a few words before our relatives. Charlotte laid back and continued, "Anyway, I don't want it to be such a complicated process."

She helped a lot at Anne's wedding, so she knew the details of the ceremony. Simply put it was one word, complicated.

If she had the time, she would rather read more books.

Shane did not continue on this topic. The guests arrived at the scene one after another but they were enjoying the buffet at the field outside the church. No one was inside so the church halls were quite empty.

"Mr. Fuller."

A familiar voice rang beside them.

Shane didn't move while Charlotte turned to look at the person.

It was Christopher.

He and Elaine walked over slowly. A little boy was holding Elaine's hand. Charlotte felt sick and turned away from them.

Christopher walked towards Shane and said helplessly, "Do you hate me that much? We have been friends for so many years. Can you really just let go..."

"I've said before that you had used these years to exchange a life."

"Just because I touched Heidi?" Christopher glanced at Charlotte. "Aren't you afraid your current lover would be jealous of you caring so much for someone in the past?"

Unexpectedly...

Shane didn't explain any further while Charlotte didn't react to his words. The both of them were calm as statues.

Christopher felt angry and said, "Shane, you can act as righteous as you want but you can't hide the evil within you. You just can't forget Heidi. Don't say you let me go because of our friendship. It's all because of Heidi's sister, Tiffany."

"Where is Tiffany?" Shane looked at Christopher.

Christopher immediately laughed hearing he was hooked. "You're really a hypocrite. I won't tell you where she is."

"Of course you won't tell me, because you don't know where she is."

Shane sounded very certain.

Christopher's smile instantly froze. He frowned and said, "What did you say?" NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

"Tiffany is already dead."

After he finished speaking, Shane stood up with Lottie and said, "Christopher, you have already used your last chance. Stop if you know what's good for you. Otherwise, I'll bring you down from the top of the NC company."

Christopher sneered and said, "Don't even think about it!"

Shane left the church with Charlotte and arrived at the grassy area.

Charlotte stared at the sunlight and sighed, "How did Christopher end up like this?"

"It's Karma."

"In fact, he had a very clear purpose and value but he met you so he has no choice."

"He wouldn't have a choice even if he met someone else."

"Why? If he were my brother, I might be dead now."

"He's not that ruthless."

Charlotte was stunned.

Was Christopher not ruthless enough?

He was ruthless enough to turn Tiffany into Heidi. Wasn't that enough? Charlotte felt Shane wasn't right in this matter. However, on second thought, she couldn't really point out how ruthless Christopher was.

It seemed that he was really not cruel.

Charlotte took a piece of cake and a small fork. As she ate, she thought about this question.

'Was Christopher ruthless or not?'

Soon...

The wedding was about to begin.

Anne was in a white wedding dress. Her father gave her hand to Braden. Then, the priest asked them to exchange rings and kiss.

After that, the two said their vows. Then, Braden took the microphone from the priest and said, "Today is a happy day and at the same time one of the major turning points in my life."

"I, Braden Collins, give up all my shares of the NC company to Christopher Gibson willingly and resign from all my duties at the company. At the same time, me and my wife, Anne, would have nothing more to do with the Jane and Collins family from this day onwards. This wedding is not an arranged marriage."

There was an uproar amongst the crowd and the reporters, Braden looked at Anne and shrugged helplessly. "What do you say, honey? I'm all you have now."

"You're the only one I've ever had."

She also had her brother.

Anne looked at the crowd. Kendall was sitting next to him. Somehow, the picture of the two people leaning together was quite pleasant looking.

Anne held his hand tightly with a smile. "I will always love you."

Braden put down the microphone and took Anne's hand. They were about to leave.

How could the Collins and Jane family let them go?

They quickly surrounded and stopped the both of them, wanting them to clarify the issue. After all, the Collins family only had one son. Once he left them, what could they do in the future?

However...

"Cole."

Shane didn't even get up. He simply ordered calmly.

Out of nowhere, bodyguards in bulletproof vests rushed into the church. They pushed back the Collins and Jane family. Then, escorted Braden and Anne as they left.

Everyone was staring at Anne and Braden. Only Shane and Charlotte remain seated.

These events were not rehearsed beforehand but they already knew what would happen.

"Are we going to look for them?" Charlotte asked.

"They won't leave. Just tell Rick not to change the lock."

Charlotte couldn't help but laugh. Right. Anne and Braden can't survive on their own. Braden can't live without Shane and Anne can't live without Rick. Of course, it's not that they don't have the ability but who would want to work hard if they can enjoy doing nothing?

What was the point in living if they could become billionaires without working hard?

Some people were born to fight for their lives while others...

How good it was to be blessed with a happy life!

Charlotte was very envious of it.
