Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

In the Emerson Corporation, Elaine's face turned dark when she saw the signed contract in her mail.

"Knock, knock, knock--"

"Come in."

Elaine looked up at Quincy. Her face immediately changed in seconds.

"Director Liu, I want to request for a leave."

Quincy put her hand on the desk and asked flatteringly, "I promise that I will finish my work on time, how's that?"

"Charlotte has successfully signed the contract with Mr. Writ. Look at this!"

"What?"

Quincy asked with a surprised face, "That's impossible. Why haven't I received any news?"

"Do you have to get it first?"

There was a sneer on the corner of Elaine's mouth as she threw a stack of reports towards Quincy and crossed her arms around her chest. "You have to give me an explanation."

"Director..."

"Leave. I'd think about it."

Elaine closed her eyes and massaged her temple with her hands.

"Okay."

As Quincy returned to the office, she saw Charlotte at her desk.

"Lottie, how is it going?"

Charlotte's colleague asked her with a hint of concern.

"I got it."

Charlotte slowly turned on the computer. Suddenly, Shane's handsome but cold face flashed through her mind. He was so hard to read.

Forget it, what's the point of overthinking it...

"Great! I knew you could do it."

"You're so cool!"

"Charlotte, you will be my idol from now on. You've achieved something I've never even imagined."

More and more people gathered around to praise her. But Charlotte felt nothing as she smiled.
