"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.

"Uh, I also bought some apples."

"Lottie, I don't like fruits."

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?"
