Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Shane remained silent, but the teasing smile on his face only widened. The amusement reached his eyes and raised his eyebrow imperceptibly. Eliciting no response from Shane, Charlotte chuckled awkwardly and said, "Mr. Fuller, please don't take this so seriously. I meant it as a joke."

She picked herself off the table and smoothed down the front of her dress with her hands. She could feel herself burn up with embarrassment, so much that she wished she could just bang her head against the wall and die.

Who did she think Shane was?

He had probably feasted his eyes upon every kind of beauty there existed in the world. Why did she think she could charm him with her appearance?

Seeing the changes on Charlotte' s face, Shane's lips parted in a grin, revealing a neat row of pearly whites.

"It seems that Miss Charlotte has really thought this through."

Cole stepped forward from where he was standing and placed two brand-new sets of contracts in front of Charlotte.

Shane chivalrously produced the Parker steel pen he always carried with him from the pocket of his coat and handed it to her.

She took the pen and promptly signed her name on both contracts.

Shane was slightly astonished by Charlotte's eagerness. He let out a laugh and said, "Aren't you going to read through the contracts first? Are you not afraid that it would be different from what you have at home?"
