Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte)

Chapter 363

"Yes, I know. He probably wanted to kidnap us." Sheryl answered casually. "My dad puts a lot of trackers on me, even I may not know about them. He'll still find me even if I take them off. I'm already used to it so don't worry."

This was the child of a rich family.

Olive sighed in her heart. She had good looks since young. Her parents and uncle had always taught her to protect herself well. She had to recognize human traffickers, learn to run away, and... Anyway, no one had ever thought of placing a GPS on her.

"Didn't Uncle Avery give you one?" Sheryl asked.

"No." Olive shook her head.

"Maybe he doesn't think that you would be separated from him. When I see him later, I will mention it to him. It's better to be safe than sorry."

Olive wanted to say no but she also wanted to know Avery's reaction if Sheryl spoke about it to him.

After they had eaten, they went shopping together. They would buy any delicious food and drinks and share them with each other. Sheryl was a big spender, she bought anything she liked. Olive, however, was the opposite. She carefully calculated the cost and compared the prices before buying something she liked.

After a while, Sheryl's bag was already full. Olive wanted to help her with the bags but Sheryl called Shane directly. Soon, Cole came over with two bodyguards behind him.

"Miss Sheryl, we have been looking for you all this time but we didn't dare to come close to you." Cole remained polite in front of Sheryl.

Sheryl took out a handkerchief from her pocket and helped him wipe the sweat on his forehead. "Uncle Cole, I didn't know you were coming. Now that you're here, you can play with us."

"I'm working, Sheryl," Cole said as he took out the things from her bag and placed them into the shopping bags carried by the bodyguards. "Should we send these back to the old house or give them to Mr. Fuller and Ms. Emerson so that they can take them back to the villa?"

"Well... the old house." Sheryl puffed out her cheeks. "Are you sending them back now? It's not easy for you to go back and forth.

"Miss Sheryl, it's nothing."

"Then let's quickly finish our shopping, Olive. You can wait for us awhile!"

Olive was once again pulled into the shopping area by Sheryl. Influenced by Sheryl, she started to spend more too. She paid for everything with Avery's money. She thought Avery would ask her about it, who knows there was no news from him even after she bought dozens of clothes.

Her cell phone rang while she was paying for a hat.

She glanced at it and saw that it was from Avery. Her heart tightened nervously. Her fingers froze for a moment before she picked it up and answered, "Mr. Avery?"

"Hand over your things to Mr. Fuller's men first. Don't take them all by yourself." Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

"Oh, oh..."

"Buy whatever you like. Don't lose out to Sheryl. Mr. Fuller was showing off to me just now. His daughter had already spent three hundred dollars. Let me take a look... you haven't even spent a hundred dollars. I'll be sad," Avery sobbed as he spoke.

This was the first time Olive had seen Avery behaving like this. She got goosebumps instantly and said, "Well, Mr. Avery..."

"Hahaha well, I won't tease you. You're a smart child. I know you want to help me save money but since you're out, just spend as much as you want. Don't think I'll go bankrupt because you spent some money. I have millions of dollars. You go have fun."

Toot, toot, toot-

An average child might not grasp what a million meant but Olive knew.

And she knew it very clearly.

Olive looked at the hat in her hand and suddenly smiled. She turned around and bought the matching sets with the hat. She wouldn't wear these clothes but she liked them.

Avery could finally let out a sigh of relief when he saw how much she was spending.

"It's really not easy raising a daughter. Do you know she didn't even touch any meat at first? She told me meat was expensive."

"Olive's previous environment was hard. You have to take good care of her," Charlotte said.

"I could never raise her like Sheryl. But I'm pretty curious about this, Sheryl didn't have much money before either, right? How come she spends so much? She spent more than 300 dollars in an amusement park which is even more than an adult."

"Because she has a rich godmother," Charlotte answered helplessly.

"Oh, Anne." Avery nodded with understanding,

"That makes sense."

Shane's gaze landed on Charlotte as he said softly, "Are you sure it's Anne, not Rick?"

Charlotte suddenly coughed violently. It took her a few minutes to recover. She waved her hand at him and said, "No, it really had nothing to do with Rick. He didn't spend a single cent, it was all Anne." "I can believe this. After all Charlotte only earns 50 thousand a month in the Jane Corporation."

"Hey..." Charlotte was helpless.

Why did he mention the Jane Corporation?

At that time, she was Rick's girlfriend and fiancee. Was he trying to sabotage her by mentioning this in front of Shane?

"Sure."

Shane murmured.

Well, he was jealous.

Although Charlotte didn't know what jealousy was and neither did she know what it meant to be jealous, she was sure Shane was jealous.

Fortunately, at this time, Braden arrived late with Anne.

Charlotte immediately grabbed Anne's arm. "Anne,

when we were abroad

, you always bought gifts for

me and Sheryl, right? And you always gave Sheryl what she wanted." "Yes, after all, she is my goddaughter." Anne felt the question was very weird.

"Rick never bought anything for Sheryl, right?"

Anne frowned and thought for a while. "My brother liked you very much but he was afraid you would misunderstand him so he always tried to avoid you. He only started to pursue you after knowing you were having problems with your husband. So he didn't buy anything for Sheryl then, at most, he would treat her to a meal."

"See, I'm innocent." Charlotte ran back to Shane's side.

Anne only understood now that someone was jealous.

She immediately teased, "Mr. Fuller, please spare Charlotte. If she really had a thing for my brother, I would've dragged them to the courthouse to get legally married."

"Hmm." Shane's eyes were less cold as he looked at Anne.

Obviously.

He was very happy with what Anne had said.

"Well, since you've cleared up that misunderstanding, let's get down to business." Avery pulled their focus back to the main topic.

"We can spend some time with the children if we finish this early."

"Then I'll start." Braden cleared his throat and said, "Let's start with my wedding. Of course, everyone knows what happened there. So I'll skip it. First, let me tell you about the people I met working in logistics..."

Avery listened to Braden's words while looking at the bill notifications on his phone.

Olive had spent a few hundred dollars now. It was an improvement compared to the few dollars from before.

He never knew the purpose of making so much money but now he seemed to have found a meaning to his life.

To make more money and spend it on his daughter. Of course he had to buy nice clothes and delicious food for her. He would dress her up beautifully like a princess and send her off into the hands of her prince.

Yup.

It felt good to have a daughter.

Avery suddenly understood Shane's feelings.

"Hey, are you listening?" Braden was very unhappy when he noticed he was absent-minded.
