Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

The air in the room seemed to weigh down heavily on everyone's shoulders.

Just then, a servant walked in from outside and reported, "Sir, Madam, Miss Yuliana and Mr. Fuller are here for a visit."

As soon as the servant finished speaking, Shane strode into the room, accompanied by the rhythmic clicking of his shoes against the tiles. Behind him trailed Yuliana, who was all smiles. Today, Shane was clad in a handsome black suit. The slim fit of the design perfectly accentuated his shapely figure.

The topmost button lay unfastened and lined his sexy Adam's apple. The unruffled collar seemed to amplify the sense of... abstinence emanating from him.

"Mr. Emerson, you look to be in tip-top condition! We could hear you loud and clear from outside. It appears those rumours they're spreading are false," Shane began as he approached Timothy. After his footsteps halted in front of Timothy, his gaze landed directly on Charlotte. His expression remained calm and unperturbed as though he was not the least bit surprised to find her here. Shane's arrival clearly tamed Timothy's anger. He promptly broke out into a smile and ushered Shane to take a seat.
