Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

"You said that Sheryl was at her grandmother's. How is she still..."

"Yes, she came over for lunch," Shane replied without a switch of expression.

Charlotte imagined that scene and thought of the consequences she would be facing if they were seen by others. She would probably be the target of gossip in the company.

She replied timidly, "It's better not to."

Shane seemed to laugh slightly. "I'm hanging up. Work hard."

"You're good-looking either way. When you don't smile, you look like a handsome prince. When you smile, you look like an angel!" The little fellow said childishly. "That's my little cupcake."

Sheryl pointed to her cheek, and Shane bent down to kiss her face.

This time, the little fellow left in satisfaction with Christopher.

This little girl and her mom...

"They're pretty alright," he thought.

The whole company started getting busy in preparation for the celebratory feast.
