Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Shane took the phone away from Charlotte and asked Sheryl to explain what happened again.

Shane turned on the loudspeaker on the call and handed back the phone to Charlotte. "Take this. Stay in contact with Sheryl. I'll go look for them." "Alright." Charlotte agreed.

"Mommy, daddy will definitely help us!" Sheryl suddenly stopped worrying.

Charlotte smiled bitterly.

Of course, she knew Shane would be able to solve the problem but asking Shane to solve Anne and Rick's problem...

Ugh!

At the end of the day, she was still too weak. She couldn't even think of a solution to her problems.

Shane quickly found out Anne and Rick's location through the GPS system. He sent the location to Braden and Charlotte, then sent some people to search for them.

Charlotte tried to comfort Sheryl. She was about to rush over but Shane stopped her.

"It's too dangerous for you to go alone. I'll go with you," Shane offered.

"You've already sent someone over..." Charlotte was trying to say this had nothing to do with Shane. She was already very grateful for his help. Why did he have to go personally? "Rick's shares are still with me. If the kidnapper wants him to hand over the Jane Corporation's shares, I'll have to be there."

Wait a minute.

Charlotte looked at Shane in shock. "What did you say?"

Shane looked at her thoughtfully. "Rick sacrificed everything for the sake of romance. That includes your engagement."

At that moment, Charlotte felt so dizzy as if her world was turning.

The meaning behind Shane's words was clear, Rick had made some agreement with him to ensure the engagement ceremony would go on smoothly.

The price Rick paid was the shares he owned.

"How much of his shares did he give you?" Charlotte asked, her voice was trembling.

"All of them."

She closed her eyes and succumbed to fate.

What a joke.

That's just how Rick was.

"Let's go. Anne is still waiting for you."

"Shane... Can you return his shares to him?" Charlotte subconsciously grabbed onto his sleeve.

Shane turned around and looked at her trembling fingers. His eyes darkened and he asked sarcastically, "What's the price you're going to pay?"

"Do you want to work with me or sleep with me?"

Charlotte let go of his
