Charlotte was startled. She said hurriedly, "Please keep this secret for me. I don't want Shane to know." Sheryl looked at her with her head tilted. She sort of remembered that Shane was her Daddy's name.

But what did divorce mean?

It was so interesting.

"What is divorce?" The little girl blinked innocently.

Anne immediately picked her up. "Sheryl, did you miss your godmother?"

"Yes, I did!"

"Then I will reward you with cake. Ms. Eleanor, come and take Sheryl to afternoon tea."

After the servant took Sheryl away, Anne continued, "Why didn't you let him know? Sheryl is his daughter. He was the man from five years ago. You were the one who saved him" Charlotte didn't know what the whole saving thing was about. She only knew that she had gotten pregnant with Sheryl that night.

However, there was no point in saying these things now.

She smiled bitterly and said, "These things don't matter anymore. Look, you can see that Tiffany is a good match for him." Braden heard this sentence spoken as he went downstairs. He had wanted to persuade her, but then he immediately shut up. Tiffany was Heidi's younger sister...

If Shane really couldn't let go of the past, it was possible that he would break up with Charlotte and get together with Tiffany. Anne was angry when she heard that. "Is he divorcing you because of another woman?"

"It's my fault, so it has nothing to do with him. Besides, our marriage is just contractual. Don't you know that?"

"But at that time, I thought you... Just forget it, Shane is just a playboy bastard!" Anne gritted her teeth in anger.

"Would you really divorce for Tiffany?" Braden asked in a low voice.

Charlotte smiled bitterly. She didn't know either. If it was for Tiffany's sake, why would Shane delay the divorce until now?

Also, from Tiffany's reaction, she liked Shane very much. If Shane also liked her, why didn't he choose to marry her back then? She really didn't know.

She was afraid that, in his eyes, she was not even a tool to be used...

"Braden, do you know what?" Anne saw Braden's unnatural behavior and immediately asked in response.

"Tiffany is Heidi's sister. I remember that Heidi was kidnapped and killed with her when Shane was fifteen years old..." Braden sighed and continued, "But I don't know the details. Wait a minute. I'll send someone to investigate it. Shane is quite secretive."

Anne nodded after thinking for a while.

It was necessary to conduct a thorough investigation.

She arranged for Charlotte and Sheryl to stay at her home and used her own connections with Braden to investigate what happened in the past.

Three hours later.

Anne handed the prepared documents to Charlotte while she held a bowl of fruit in her other hand. "No matter what decision you make, I will support you. Have a good rest. My home is your home. Don't worry about it, it's fine."
