Charlotte ignored Avery and walked downstairs on her own.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw Shane's car parked right there.

She walked up to him and knocked on his car window.

The person in the car rolled down his window, revealing his long fingers that held a cigar.

He looked at her.

"Mr. Fuller, you started following us right after we left the bar. Is there anything wrong?"

"Did I interrupt your intimate moment with him?" he sneered coldly.

"Do you think there's any chance between me and Avery? He was drunk, and he called me because he mistook me for his sister."

"How do you know he lives here?"

"I saw it on his ID card. I picked up his wallet and found his ID card in his pocket."

Charlotte's reply was flawless.

Shane glared at her intensely. The night breeze was slightly chilly, but his gaze was even colder.

So?" "I once heard from a hacker that the motive behind Avery's arrival at River City was not that simple. Seeing that you followed him today, I'm more certain of it. Moreover, I learned that you gave him some documents..." Charlotte stopped talking and didn't continue.

"You want to get information about Avery from me?"

"You could say so. After all, we are on the same team now. Of course, you can ignore it, but I can't. The partnership with Avery was the first project I've ever joined willingly without Rick's involvement." Charlotte thought that her argument was sufficient.

However, Shane's lips curled into a smile. He tapped the cigar with his long finger, and the ashes of the cigar dropped onto the side of the car.

"He's investigating my dead father."

"Is this why you followed him?"

"The year he investigated happened to be the year my father passed away. That means if someone investigated your mother..."

Charlotte's expression changed upon hearing that.

After Shane put out his cigar, he placed it inside of the ashtray in his car and said with a cold tone, "Do you understand it now?"

"I'm sorry."

"No need to be."

"But I don't think you'll be able to get anything out of him today. He's drunk, so it's better to leave earlier," Charlotte said as she turned around to leave.

"Wait."

Charlotte stopped walking, but she did not turn around to look at him.

Shane started his car and said, "I'll send you back. Let Avery drive your car to Jane Corporation tomorrow."
