"Well..." Braden felt that it was not easy to be a reporter but he did not dare to talk back to his wife, so he could only keep quiet.

"Let's go." Charlotte calmly ended the conversation.

Anne glared at Braden.

Braden touched his nose unhappily. It was hard enough to chase his wife, but it was even harder to coax her. It was extremely difficult to have a sweet life with his wife. It was very difficult for him.

Charlotte walked into the ward and put the fruit basket on the table, "I passed by a fruit shop on my way here. These grapes looked so good, do you want to try some?"

"I don't like sour foods."

"Uh, I also bought some apples."

"Lottie, I don't like fruits."

Charlotte bit her lower lip and paced to his side. She grabbed onto his sleeve and said, "The rumours on the Internet aren't true. Shane and I were being chased by some of Blake's men. We almost couldn't escape. I came here the moment I saw the news, I was afraid you would misunderstand."

Rick was still looking out the window. "I was dealing with the reporters here in the afternoon. Suddenly they all left, one of them told me you arranged a press conference with Shane, right?" "Yes, I thought of a plan with Shane's help..."

"Did you know Shane has never been present in any press conferences?"

Charlotte was stunned for a moment and her hands froze.

"Did you know Shane has never praised a company in public?"
