Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Sheryl pouted at the mention of her mother. "She hasn't came home for three days. I asked Aunt Jane, she said mummy was very busy."

"It's true. She's studying for a degree in International Economics. The professor is even introduced by Avery," Braden immediately explained as he was afraid Shane would misunderstand. "It's not easy for her to be alone. She can't survive in the Jane Corporation without any background."

"She's working so hard, she even forgot her daughter?"

"Ugh, Shane, think about it, she might be a little bit busier but she's now an independent woman. She just doesn't have the time to care for her child, it's better than having her dealing with bad men or selling her soul."

Shane pursed his lips.

The way he looked at the little girl was much softer. "Now who sends and brings you home from school?"

"Aunt Jane!" She replied.

"She won't play with you?"

"She does but I still miss daddy and mommy..." Sheryl lowered her head. "My friends at school always had their daddy and mommy to pick them up but I don't."

Alas!

Braden couldn't stand to see the sad look on Sheryl's face as if he was a wicked uncle.

Shane stroked her back gently and said, "But it's too dangerous for you to come alone. Don't do this again."

"I'm not alone."

"Huh?" Shane frowned.

Sheryl took out her phone and dialled a number.

Outside the door, a cell phone rang.

Everyone's eyes immediately turned towards the door.

Avery, who was wearing a bare-chested dress, walked up gracefully. He flipped his long hair and smiled. He raised his hands towards them and said, "Hello." Christopher was speechless.

Braden widened his eyes.

Shane turned around silently. "Don't follow him around in the future." "But Aunt Avery treats me very well."

Aunt Avery.

Braden spat out a mouthful of water and asked, "Avery, why are you so shameless? I mean you are already quite good-looking in your usual outfits. What's up with your clothes today?" Avery's broad chest was exposed showing some defined lines. It was a truly astonishing sight.

Avery wasn't even angry. He smiled as he sat down on the sofa, "I came here because I wanted to give Mr. Fuller a recording. You can either get rid of me or let me take Sheryl home after listening to it. It's up to you."
