Charlotte spent three days alone in the hospital.

During this period, Rick's assistant and secretary delivered her meals but Rick himself never appeared.

After Charlotte returned home, Sheryl threw herself into her arms happily. She told her Rick had said she was on a business trip and would be home today. As expected, she had returned so Sheryl was especially happy.

Rick...

Charlotte subconsciously searched for Rick's presence but he wasn't home.

She didn't know where he went.

After spending some time with Sheryl, Charlotte put away her luggage upstairs. During lunch, Anne complained that she was still hospitalised in the end.

"Don't let Sheryl hear us." Charlotte quickly covered her mouth.

"You are afraid that your daughter will hear you. Aren't you afraid that I'm pissed off by you?" Anne rolled her eyes and continued, "Forget about it, I don't care anymore."

"I'm sorry."

Charlotte's gaze wandered around the room but she still didn't see any sight of him.

Anne snorted when she noticed it. "Are you looking for my brother?"

"Yes."

"He's not coming back."

"Why not?"

"He said he had something to do at the company. He had been there for the past two days. But it's weird, he was home with Sheryl the whole time when you were in the hospital. Are all presidents like this?" Charlotte froze for a moment before responding with a bitter smile.

Rick was... avoiding her, wasn't he?

The next day.

Charlotte arrived at the company and worked as usual.

While they were having lunch, people were gossiping about the president of the NC Company's wedding. It seemed he was marrying a small celebrity with a messy private life. They made the announcement as soon as she came back from abroad.

Charlotte was stunned. She took out her phone and browsed through the news. The words "Shane Fuller and Tiffany Allen's Announcement" appeared on the screen.

She stood next to the coffee machine, lost in her thoughts.

"Mr. Jane!"

"Good to see you, Mr. Jane!"

The gossipers immediately stood up straight and bowed.

Charlotte subconsciously raised her head to smile at him when she heard his voice.
