Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

After getting off work, Charlotte went straight to the kindergarten to pick up Sheryl.

Sheryl raised her little head and looked around. After a few seconds, she pouted and asked, "Mommy, why didn't Daddy come pick me up with you?"

Charlotte pursed her lips and said, "Daddy has gone on a business trip. When Daddy comes back, he'll come pick you up, okay?"

In the blink of an eye, her little face turned sunny and she laughed. "Okay! Mommy, today we..."

She kept talking non-stop.

As for Charlotte, she watched as the sky gradually darkened. She thought that Shane should have arrived at W Country by now.

She took out her cell phone from her bag, pulled open the contact list, and scrolled to that familiar number.

There seemed to be no reason to call him.

Beside her, Sheryl noticed that her mother was staring at the phone and said loudly, "Mommy, are you listening to me or not?" Shocked, Charlotte's hand slipped and dialed the number on the phone.

By the time Charlotte realized what was going on, she had no time to care to think, and hung up the phone in a hurry.

Because she hung up the phone in a flurry, she was not sure if the call had really gone through.

What would Shane think if she had really made the phone call?

The lights on both sides of the street were suddenly turned on. Due to the weather turning cold, there were only a few pedestrians on the road. Meanwhile, because of the awkward phone call just now, Charlotte's body was hot and her mind was also in a mess.

When Charlotte and Sheryl arrived home, there was nothing from her phone. Since so much time had gone by without a response, it was likely that the call had not gotten through.

While she was thinking, the phone suddenly rang.

The emotions that she had pressed down with difficulty suddenly rose to the forefront again. Charlotte took a deep breath and picked up the phone. "Hello."

A man's chilly voice rang out. "We were in a meeting just now so I couldn't answer. What's the matter?"

Although he sounded cold, Shane explained patiently.
