"Yes, I have some medicine." Henry took out a small bag of pills. "I'll bring her some water. Once she takes this, she will be sleeping for four to five hours." "Okay." Shane nodded.

Henry left the bedroom to get some water.

Shane lowered his gaze. He looked at the fragile woman in his arms and gently stroked the tips of her eyebrows with his fingers.

"Did you hear that? If you go all out for Rick, you are really going to give your life to him."

"I don't want to let Rick down..." She was in such great pain that her words were incoherent.

"He's just using you."

"He's not."

Shane didn't want to argue too much with this insensible woman. He coldly withdrew his arm and said, "Think about it carefully. You have problems with your health now. How can Rick help you?" Charlotte tightened her grip on the blanket. "No. He also told me to rest, but I didn't want to. If I want to catch up with all of you, I have to work even harder than all of you. But even if I were lucky enough to have ten years headstart, I could still only be good enough not to be a burden to all of you."

"Catch up with us?" Shane felt like he was listening to a joke.

"I don't want to rely on you forever. When something happens, I want to solve it myself, instead of..."

It made him feel that she should ask him for help as soon as possible.

Shane took a probing look at her. Then he bent down and pointed between her eyebrows. "A smart woman must learn how to make use of men in addition to being capable. Obviously, both me and Rick can be your weapons."

Charlotte shook her head subconsciously. She stretched out her hand and pushed him away. She struggled to stand up and looked at him seriously, "If I rely on Rick, at least it's related to benefits. But if I rely on you, then what's the point of it?"

"What do you think?"

"I... I know we have nothing to do with each other."

"That's up to you. I'll tell Rick that, if such a thing happens again, I'll make his Janes Corporation disappear from the Asia Pacific Region. You can decide what to do."

Shane stood up and left the bedroom.

"This man!" Charlotte seethed.

Charlotte's eyes widened. He had threatened her!

Charlotte's stomach hurt.

She clutched at her stomach and felt even more aggrieved.

Was it still her fault that she didn't bother anyone?

If she had known that skipping two meals would cause a stomachache, she wouldn't have skipped them. It was just that she had been too busy in those two days. She had been sleepy once she got on the plane and didn't have time to have lunch.

Additionally, she had signed the contract with Avery that day. If she said, "I'm going to have dinner first," right after meeting him, then she definitely wouldn't have gotten the contract signed.
